Quote from Furiously-Fast :Who said these were meant to be realistic? Ofc these don't look realistic. But they still look awesome.

No one did say these were ment to be realistic. I just said that the latest one doesn´t look realistic and thats why I use the 1st one Lynce put out...

South City Clear day has been improved too:

Compare with post number 150._


I think that´s not realistic anymore

No car in real life reflects like that.. The first version is very good and realistic, I really like it.

Quote from brt900 :im 14 and couldnt you teach me??????

Well, have you flown in Flight sim before and if, how long?

Teaching is not part of my job, go to our site and go to "contact us". Then mail Eliot Lee about you wanting to learn flying.

Quote from brt900 :what if you cant land and everytime you go to land you just get owned

edit coul you teach me?

If you can land and/or do the basic things, you´re not allowed to fly in the network we are using; VATSIM. Also u must be over 13yrs old. So that means that you can´t join, you got to know the basic things.

Quote from (SaM) :I noticed your virtual company virtually pays you.

What does that mean.. can I spend it on virtual flight attendants? Can I choose between blondes and redhairs ?

You get a certain amount of money from the profit that the flight brings to the company. You can´t buy anything with it, at least yet. This have been discussed about on the forums and it´s still a bit open.
Flight simmer´s, attention!

Good evening community.

I thought that as this is a pretty serious sim (LFS), maybe there is flight sim flyers in the community. I´m representing new virtual airlines called XL Airways Virtual. If you dont know what this "VA" is, here it comes. VA is a airlines company that exists only in internet. It´s trying to simulate the real world companys as far as possible. Without hard training and all the expences, as this is a hobby, it´s free and anyone who can fly from destination to another, can join. The flights are flown in Microsoft flight simulator 2004 or X.
XL is a real world airlines company that operated from UK to leisure destinations to southern europe and USA. The airline sadly went into administration on 12th of september 2008. It was due to the raised expences in fuel and thousands of passengers were stranded all over the globe. They got return flights to home from another airliners.
Now the XL is here again. We are respecting XL by having all the same paintings on our planes, same routes and the same planes that XL used to have. The fleet contains planes for short distance routes; Boeing 737-800.s and 737-900ER.s For longer distances we have Boeing 767-200ER.s, 767-300.s and Airbus a330-200.s
The whole flying and submitting the flights is very simple, so don´t be afraid. Just fill in the application and you´ll become a real XL Virtual Airways pilot!

Application and more info here at www.xl-virtual.co.uk

Also check out the promo vid here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LORS3V2wmLk

The whole team welcomes everyone to join the XL Virtual Airways!

As I cancelled my participation before the first season, I´m now twice as eager to get to race in the cup.
I also would suggest same that someone said earlier, that we should have a mini endurance race with teams of 2 drivers. I have never done a race where u switch the driver, so it could be pretty darn interesting. I´d recommen a combo of lx4 at Blackwood rev, for the endurace or for a normal race.

Pretty interesting and almost well done fake

He should have been more careful to get the analog stick and car go together. Then it would have been pretty good.

In a real car when u just slam the gearstick to another gear without clutch, u have to go up and down with the revs to make it go in. Before that, it just makes a bad sound that hurts any car lovers ears

And I don´t see any reason why some people say that the LFS clutch overheats too quickly. First of all, in about 95% of all the gear ratios, the 1st gear is way longer than in real life, for faster starts obviously. The stress for the clutch in situeations where u try to shift as fast as possible with double the revs in a racing condition, than IRL, is pretty big. And last but not least, when u race in, lets say, South city u have a bunch of other things to think and concentrate at, than shifting. Then u might have the clutch-gear change timing a bit messed up and that can also eat the clutch.

Great to hear that your not vanished completely

I just hate to fight with big companys when they screw something up. Call to the customer service and u have to first be in the que for 30mins, then a monotonic female voice redirects u to somewhere else and eventually nothing happens
And the call costs like 1€ per minute..

I would be ready to do a 32 racers event, as there are 8 reserves plus the 24 others. I think it would be fun
It takes a bit longer, but so what? It´s saturday night and you´ve got the whole sunday to recover from it

Quote from JO53PHS :Precisely, FACEPALM.

Of course you'll use less fuel going slowly. The fuel prediction is one racing lap, not one grandma goes to the shops lap

:doh:

Grandma´s aren´t slow

I just drove a fast lap on the FZR at as5 and I got avg. 4% for 1 lap, so It´s right. I also drove very slowly and tried to save fuel.. got 1.1 per lap.
i´m not worried of the so called "global warming" in real world, so why would I care about it in LFS world

Quote from Tomba(FIN) :CTRA ... All cars... All tracks.. Soon scirocco.. Real racing... Real teams... Real leagues... =S2

Believe me.

I don´t know about the CTRA, but the other things really makes the S2 worth of buying.

And what comes to the demo server crashing, when I was a demo racer I often just pulled to the side of the road at the start, slowed down so everyone went past. Then 97% of them had crashed in the first turn and you´ll end up finishing in top 3, among with some lucky survivors.
As some1 said before ZION is pretty good for a demo sever, and there was some german one i cant remember.

Quote from Blackout :I think the VW and ABS should be countered with something like this thing.

Feel free to make edits if you like.

Well THAT´S a car fgs. I´d like to see Rocco do that

No really, does the LX8 leap like that by itself. No ramp?
