My suggestion is pretty simple. If it is not done yet and implemented yet to the upcoming update - I want more MAX gears ( rn it is 7 ) Since we are 2022 ( soon 2023 ), gearboxes are quite more advanced than 20 years ago, when LFS was announced. Now we have 10 gear gearboxes and lfs is capped at 7.

Quote from Victor :

Can you try again please?

I don't think this bug was related to the (length of the) name though. The name was not a variable related to this particular problem.

I think the problem is actually the lenght since I have seen 2-3 mod submissions with 27 characters that had the same error. The most recent example is "DH CHORUS ATTENDANZE XT-Z4R" exactly 27 chars. It threw the exact same error. Vote mod submission thread gets created, but there is no thumbnail ( the little car picture), also you cannot download the mod. New submission with this name - "CHORUS ATTENDANZE XT-Z 4R" 25 chars and it is good.

Quote from Scawen :

Is that how you would like them? I was wondering if it is more useful to have a single start light unit (with red1 and green) so you can control them individually from InSim?

Insim control will be more useful for sure. Also, I have one suggestion - I think it would be cool to be able to place grass. ( and other stuff like trees, bushes - with collision ofc )

Just a suggestion, if it is too much work that will slow the process of update, it can be done after the big update.

More likely it is not shown due to the dynamic mods thing.

!requestmod + EXACT NAME / MODID . should work

Quote from Scawen :

Thanks for the feedback.

Interesting idea. Let's see if Eric like the idea. I think you mean, massive flat chalk letters? I supposed they should be extended "vertically" so they are easy to read from a car like painted SLOW sign on a road?

What size would you suggest? Something like a SLOW sign?

I like that a lot.

He said in order to access mods u need to buy s3, also said no point of getting s2

Somehow when you submit a mod and choose a name, theres no characters limit, until you try to upload. Then anything more than 25 chars throws an error.

Sure:

https://www.lfs.net/forum/thread/101348-Development-Progress

If I did more than that, I would only be working on progress reports rather than actually working, then there wouldn't be any progress to report!

I am subscribed to the both threads since the start of them, also have been waiting for friday to come for the your next post in that thread.

Quote from Scawen :

Me too but just to be clear it will still be a while, not this year!

Hope for some progress updates / videos, photos / at least?

Quote from Giedriune :

maybe manual 2.8i version in the future??

The car is L - long, there's no 2.8i being produced in Long variant.

Quote from Aleksandr_124rus :

I see screenshots of the track editor for the first time, user interface is looks to be a as thoughtful for the user as the lfs editor. Cant wait for this

Most of the things you see is the debug menu for Scawen only.

Things we can notice

- We can add lamps

I don't have wheel, but I can control the car in "wheel / joystick" mode with axis with the mouse.

Question is. How should I setup the vjoy thing so it can be compatible with the PSC and gearbox

Quote from Scawen :

It feels like I'm getting near the end of the multithreading conversion.

Now that the multithreading conversion is done, will we see more background progress like the one you made, but from Eric? Also what is going on with the tyre physics?

Thanks.

End of the original post, Now this is my second question regards the newest post from Scawen's diary

Quote from Scawen :

Now that multithreading is basically done, I'll stop reporting daily progress and go back to a more normal style. I hope to report more regularly than in the past, as I know the reports are interesting for some people and the use of a closed thread has allowed me to make unofficial reports without them becoming a distraction.

I want to ask about the blue tone dashboard. Is it blue because you have the headlights on at night, or you just turned the "Clock Text Colour" from Options -> Display to a bit blue tone.

Thanks

Remove the real brand name from the speedometer.

Quote from Rob2003 :

Feel free to suggest anything that should be included in the update.

Mentioning PDC - Will it be possible the PDC to beep when we are close to an layout object? If I remember correctly, the current method of the Lane assist is made by manually written by you coordinates or something, so it won't work in the case of PDC with layout objects. Maybe if we put the .lyt file in some type of folder or drag it to the .exe so it can read it?

Quote from Rob2003 :

Yes, it is. It is not implemented yet, but it is the next car on my list.

And when does the ACC ( Adaptive Cruise Control ) come? E38 has this feature too

Quote from Rob2003 :

Hello Guys,

in the past few days, I've started to clean up the code a bit and to make "beta features" work properly. The proper automatic gearbox (previously only fz5, now also works for a few other cars, including a few mods.) I'll continue working on it.

The emergency braking distance is now adjusted to a few mods. Many bugs have been fixed and there are many more options in the settings now so that you can turn on / off whatever you like to use.

Is my BUMER 7 in that list of "few mods"?

Don't make road bike because Scawen will get addicted and he will stop coding

Vehicle mod: BUMER 7

Quote from Aleksandr_124rus :

Somereason forgot answer on that

All tracks will be updated in the upcoming update with new graphics and physics. (if the plan for splitting updates has not remained the same) And there will be new tracks in the new update. In addition, the trackeditor option replaces all new requests for adding new tracks. Because in trackeditor players can make any tracks themselves.

I have really missed all of the things you wrote ( if they really happend ) Where was it mentioned there will be.. track editor.. and plans of splitting the update?

Quote from auch_enne :

And to the community, I was wondering if we could chip in together and give Scawen an modern pc Seeing as he is still on some old duo core system with a 60 hz monitor

Quote from Flame CZE :

On the other hand, it acts as a benchmark for Scawen - if LFS runs reasonably smooth on his PC, then it’s most likely well optimised for the community as well.

I have missed that, where can we see Scawen's PC specs

Crazy!

Hello,

My suggestion is to add notification in LFS FORUM when you get Message from Mod Reviewers.

The problem is I don't receive notifications from GMAIL when I receive email from LFS. (other people may too)

And I think it might be more useful.

Thanks
