Quote from Scawen :

That's how I see it right now, it's an exciting thought that LFS development could be kind of back on track again and that's why I am hoping to be able to do.

I may have to lie down for a minute

I'm happy that no one has given up hope yet and that some point we can get back to the original intention of this forum: Do it yourself tips for kitchen remodelling!

Thank you Scawen for the small update on what is going on behind the curtain.

And while I understand that every update on the graphics system will allow Eric to provide us more eye candy, I can't help but notice that tire physics aren't mentioned.

Given the long time (I think it is somewhere around ten years now) and probably head scratching that you already invested in the simulation of those black round things, can you give us any word of encouragement on that end? I can't help it, but it seems to me, that you prefer working on other stuff these days.

I know that LFS is your baby (as well as Eric's and Victor's) and that in the end we (the customers) all have to accept that or move on. And yes, I realize that you can only do so much as a single person at a time and that every statement you make here will be written in stone to be thrown back at you at some point.

But can you give us any realistic estimation / description on the current situation on that front?

I'd say north of South City

I have faith that at some point a decent upgrade will appear.
But I fear that it might be too late, as online racing is more or less dead already.

I will try to make it

Anyone up for some (test) racing tonight?

Yeah, Scawen says he is hard at work but if you have seen his twitter he is probably still rebuilding his bike as it takes him that long to get stuff done.

So he isn't allowed to do something other than LFS? Or to get his head free and enjoy life once in a while?
Is that how you work?

Would it be possible to stick with a car class for 2 or 3 races in a row? With the little amount of driving I do these days, it would make things a lot easier

Happy birthday vicc

I just noticed there is a song missing in the add-on pack!

I guess that would be me.

The rest of the "album" is in the add on pack (or at least should be)
10 - Victor Van Vlaardingen - Feel The Silence
11 - Victor Van Vlaardingen - Nowhere.mp3

Since I have never driven any of those supercars, let alone a F1 car, it's makes no difference to me anyway. From an experience point of view the FZ50 is a real as a <insert fancy car here>.

Quote from Victor :

The chatterbox was a small window on LFS World where people could chat. But that has been removed a while ago as it didn't really add to a positive vibe.

Lies!

However... the #LFS IRC channel could use some promotion...

It's only a boring car if it doesn't allow close racing...

Quote from UnknownMaster21 :

and rallypack!

I'm pretty sure that with that with westhill and now blackwood you can already build a few rallye stages of your own

I think the issue with the Scirocco is less about the car, but a about the long period of time with no visible progress that followed the announcement. I guess that if the Devs had known how long the tire physics would take they'd had done a few things differently.

Let's wait and see what the future brings... updated cockpits hopefully as well

Quote from cargame.nl :

I wonder why, on demo ... On test patches and now also with 0.6R there is this massive amount of JOOS - CAR connections again. Unbelievable. And loads of them keep retrying as they don't seem to understand they can't connect to a pure server with their bloated LFS install.. Meh.

Is there actually a page that explains lfs error messages?

The Le Mans piece was beatiful to watch

Well either remove it or make an official account. Now it's confusing.

I'm still thinking that the main segment / film is too long.

Much skill, very quality
