I recently found two things:
1. I've definitely "lost my passion" for this forum. Every second new thread is either about progress reports, (or the recent "lfs dev team" one which I won't even bother opening), and then the other threads go somewhere along the lines of: "Do midgets/military people play LFS?".
2. I kind of changed the "way" I play LFS. I focus on league races. That gives me the motivation to really train on a certain combo, as well as race with a group of people I know, and enjoy. That means I pretty much gave up joining random servers, and racing with random people.
Mind you, I still have a bloody good time playing LFS
Cheers!

Personally 2 hours in a single race is a bit too long for me. I've done that a few times in GTR, didn't really enjoy it. On the other hand an hour long race is just perfect, I've been doing lots of those 
precisely the same here actually
It'll cost another 12 punds. Altough I'm not sure it'll be 12. But it'll cost more
oh look! english seems to be his mother tongue as well
almost a good joke though FPVaaron, we appreciate the effort.

woot!
Where can I find some more info on this MPH Comp? I've never heard of it.as I said when I was on the server: excellent layout. I really enjoyed it
hehe. sounds like fun (an alternative for banger racing?)
I'll check it out when I'm home.

I don't know about removing it, but I'm sure that it doesn't need to be neither bigger nor brighter.
In the first pic, there is no depth added to the panels. That means they're just flat "sheets of metal". When you look in between the panels, you can see right through to the inside.
In the second pic, there is depth added to the panels. That pretty much means that they're bent to the inside
Obviously that Merc. wasn't finished at the time of making that render, but it still shows what I mean I think.
(and yes, I was going to make a lowrider version of the car, hence the silly wheels.
)

)Heh. I'm not a big fan of boolean as it tends to screw up the mesh a bit. But yes, they sure are easy to use
Looking good so far, I'd say the bumper and side skirts need more definition, but hey, they aren't done I assume so nevermind.
Are you going to add some panel depth as well?

well, keep at it. It's a thing that takes a bit of practice.
This forum is worth looking at :
www.cgtalk.com (MUCH better than smcars.net imho.just a higher level)
You can start a thread in the WIP:3D section, and get some good advice. And check out the other threads, you can really learn a lot by doing that.
I know I did! I haven't been on there for a while, but I don't think much has changed for the worse, so worth a try. (Actually I think you can find most of my models on there, and compared to some of the other guys' work, they really aren't much as you'll see).
Again, I'm really pleased that someone here is interested in 3D for real, not just rendering the LFS cars (almost always in the same boring way) or editing the LFS cars' mesh. Just my own view

Nope, didn't use any splines whatsoever
And I have to clear up: I've been playing around with 3D for just about a year now, my first car looked terrible compared to your Porsche

Ehm. how much time? Hard to say really, aprat from LOTS of it.
An estimate would be 2 to 4 weeks of modelling. Again, hard to give a good estimate, since I did them a while back.
About the method: I'm not sure what it's called. I put a whole bunch of points, connect them into polys, then use hypernurbs. (I think it's called meshsmooth in other programs?). Sounds simple, doesn't it?
Oh, and then there's the texturing and renders, sadly I never got good at that. I'm glad you like them though.

Nice to see a subject with "real" modelled cars in here. (Not just renders of the LFS cars). I've been modelling for a while, here's a few links for my latest models:

Currently working on this: (altough I kind of gave it up.. lots of other work
)
http://img255.imageshack.us/my.php?image=large0qk.jpg <-- I know it's big, but check out the details

As I said, the project is only about 30% done, and has lots of errors. Hope I'll have the time to finish it someday.

I for one, think this is a good thread. Got an interesting discussion about the different languages going
Hehe. pretty good text there.
About the changing of nouns and adjectives. It's called declination, and Polish has that too (actually lots of languages I think).
And as for the difficulties with learning a language, and "they go off and laugh uncontrollably and give high-fives to other Estonians" I feel pretty much the same way about Danish people. No offence, but they aren't really helpful Plus it's a pretty hard language to learn (there's practically no grammar, but the pronounciation makes up for that. it's CRAAZY..which makes it fun though).
Sorry for going completely offtopic

Here you go:
I hope the author doesn't mind. If yes, just say so, I'll remove them

That'd be Danish
ONTOPIC:
Whenever I relate to the name of the game, is just say LFS.
If I was to say the full name though Live like "living" would be the only way to go
One of the best races I've had in S2. My mate Poolek and I battle it out in the fxo's on aston. Just two cars, but I know I had LOTS of fun
hehe. Banger racing was great. Once there was a banger sever, with a "figure of 8" layout.. now THAT was fun
All the road cars basically.
Maybe apart from the GT, which I find a bit dull
If I really had to pick a favourite, I'd say the LX6.

DAAMN.. I just reliazed it WAS set one month ahead. Very good call there angry_angel, thanks!
Now I have to go and have a very serious talk with the person who keeps playing around with the calendar on my computer.
(which is probably gonna be me
illepall )Thanks for the help guys!

In the future? No, I'm pretty sure that it's set to the present time
The forced cache clear didn't work as well.
Thanks for trying though. Any other suggestions?
(At this time I'm really appreciating LFSWorld. Now that I can't use it.)
