Should be real easy

*sings*

Just the good ole boys, never meanin no harm....


YEEHAW!!

Quote from U4IK ST8 :

Ok, took a while to find lights, you were right.

This is what I got, hope you like it.

I love you lol. Looks fantastic thanks so much

PS - Even my cat agrees, when I opened the pic he jumped up on my desk and ubbed his head on the screen. Not even kidding

Quote from U4IK ST8 :

I'm doing nothing so I'll give it a go.

I'll look for some better images of the lights and we'll see what happens.

Excellent

I wish you good luck on finding lights. I had collected that pic earlier because I was going to make a quick skin to hold me over for this one, took me forever I'm sure there are places I missed, though

Like doesn't even begin to describe

I just thought of something even better than S15 stuff

Can someone add these headlights? They're from a Saab 9000 is you need reference.

Front:


and side:


..then just a quick Saab badge on the bonnet where there normally is on, and in the middle of the bootlid (like on the back part, where badges normally are(hehe speaking euro-English is weird)). After that "SAAB" in silver letters on the far left side of the back and "9000" on the far right.

A pic of the badge:


..and after that I'll be so happy you wouldn't even know

Did I make sense there? Also, is it going to be possible for you seeing as it's already black?

Thanks again,
Stig

Quote from U4IK ST8 :

I thought I'd give it a go since the lads left you waiting.

I don't have the Silvia S15 nose and not sure where to put RPM Racing or even what RPM Racing looks like but this is what I've done. Hope you like it.

There's a couple of small gradient differences but nothing too bad.

Skin is 2048x2048.

BTW, if someone has got the Silvia S15 nose feel free to add it for him.

Excellent! I love it, thanks a ton!

Edit: I may have one quite quick addition, hang on a sec and I'll get it ready for you! It's a quick set of headlights, a grille, and a little bit of badging

Sorry to bump, but do we have any progress?

I don't want to come across as impatient so please fogrive me if I did

By the way, what progams do you guys use to skin?

That's not a demo track..

Quote from mutlu :

sorry for being dumb but whats the rz axis??the paddles?

WEll, I don't know to be honset. When nothing happens it sits in the middle, git the brakes and the bar goes to the left floor it and the bar heads to the right.

Ian, I'm really gonna have to try that

Quote from mutlu :

im unable to assign my brake and throttle pedals seperatley.One will work and the other wont(if that makes sence)seems that both pedals work on the one axis and im unable to get both workingat the same time.I know my wheel is old but im still short 300$ to buy a G25.

Yes. So far as I can tell they have to be on the RZ axis, at least that's all I can get out of mine

Alright, I'm gonna come out and say it. I'm a pretty big fan of the NFS series. *Dons flame suit, buries head in sand*

That's where I got my start in racing games. WAaaay back when getting owned by my brother in NFS II on the PS1. Eventually we upgraded to NFS: High Stakes, and things went from there.

Could I tell you why I like them? Not really. I just think they're really *fun games and make a good change of pace from my simulator side. I will be buying it.

Now, back to the game. EA is planning on moving toward a simulator. As of yet we don't know just how far they're going with it. We don't know much at all. We do know that it's moving back to the tracks, and EA is talking about much more in-depth performance tuning. We also know of a damage model. Sounds like it's gonna be amusing if you ask me

*NFS:C is an exception to most things stated about the NFS series.

fits this one too

So it does

Quote from DratsaB :

Yes, its very intuitive. Just hook up every cotroller you want to use, then load lfs and assign every thing from there. At the moment i use:
1. MSFFB Wheel
2. Generic wheel for clutch
3. MSFFB joystick for H shifter
4. Saitek X52 for all other controls like vote/Pit setup/tyres etc

Seems simple enough, and that's quite a few things! though sounds like a sweet setup

I think I'm gonna have to do this if I stumble upon a wheel for dirt cheap. Makes me wish I didn't throw my old one away when it had glitches. Oh well

Quote from thisnameistaken :

From what I've heard the RGT wheel isn't that great, build-quality-wise.

If you really want a cheap third pedal, just buy the DFP and also buy some other crappy wheel. Plug them both in and LFS will let you assign controls to both.


It doesn't even matter if the second wheel is faulty, so long as the accelerator pedal works, so you should be able to find one dirt cheap.

This is relevant to my interests.

How exactky is it set up? You have two wheels, ignore one and use the other. With the pedals you stick the both wherever. Plug both wheels into the PC, and one in for Force Feedback. Then you go into LFS and map the clutch onto an axis made by the new pedals.

Something like that?

Quote from Mr_Rotary :

I've being playing on deserted servers as i'm very new to LFS. The people who do join are very nice and sometimes they give me some good setups.

It's more fun than hotlapping because i usually just choose the practice mode to try and beat my pb's, dont have to record a replay to get my stats up in hotlapping either. (they suck btw).

and try out new setups etc.

I can't really race more than 1 other person right now because my computer is shit, lags really bad lol, but i'm getting a new one very soon that that will solve that problem.

+ a steering wheel, using kb atm.

P.S O.T but is there any good learner servers (blackwood) that have some forgiving drivers and laid back atmosphere?

Yeah if you're looking for good demo servers you're probably SOL. As mentioned they're usually full of noobs who don't quite get the grasp pf clean racing

Well, got some good commentary on a race I just finished

Of course, the first corner chaos. I started in second and rode the leaders ass up until the braking point where I pulled off to the side so as to not take him out. Get back behind him and into the corner, here comes a suckerpunch from somewhere in the back. This guy just FLIES in front of me and takes out the leader. Let me emphasize this part. He's been seeing a white car on his bumper all of the race so far, then a white car blasts him off the track.

Understandably, he thinks I did it.

Ban votes go around against me and they get 6/7. They tried banning me a couple other times, too, but failed.

Back on topic, I take an early (albeit cheap) lead. Now comes lap two of six. Down the straight I'm fine until n00b sends me flying. When I get back on the track I'm in seventh place. During the rest of the race I get spun a couple more times but they aren't major to the story.

Did I mention I came back to win by a huge margain?

VTEC just kicked in, yo!

Probably way overplayed but oh well.

Quote from AndroidXP :

Avatars and signatures are disabled for non-licensed users.

Ahhh, ok. Thanks

I don't know if this is related to post count or something, but there's nowhere in my profile and User CP to edit my avatar and signature? Can anyone shine some light on this for me?

Well I just came back again.

An amazing thing happened.

I had three races.

I won two of them, with a second place in the third.

In all three races my car crossed the finish line looking exactly like it did at the starting grid.

I can't wait for a license :drink:

Boston - Rock And Roll Band

Very realistic, very fun game with an awsome community backing it up..

Plus it's a simulator for PC.

That'd be my guess, because it's there on some servers but not others

Quote from thisnameistaken :

Just FYI: Those "bad" behaviours don't happen on S2 servers. Pretty much none of the anti-social behaviour you get on demo servers happens on S2 servers, so try not to let those people colour your perception of the sim.

Admins of licensed servers don't put up with that crap, and bans in S2 servers are made against your license name so once you ban an idiot he doesn't come back. I can't remember the last time I saw anyone take out

Yeah I got that impression. About the time I've got some money I fully intend to get myself licensed

...that money part is the problem, ah well, it'll happen someday...
