tweaker im on the U patch.. not 1 of the testpatches and people still get kicked on my server when they use the cheat..
so i think its not entirely in the patch .. but also in the network code itself or something.. so every version of lfs it protected now or something like that
well it seems somehow everyone using that cheat thingie.. gets kicked from server by a CPW error now on my server (CPW= Cheat Protection Warning) or something?
i hope the new cheat protection is upgraded so we can all move on fair and without cheats
sorry youre right .. btw you guys might be interested in this simple g15 macroscript .. i use it for quickshifting on keyboard. these pictures are based on the following keyboard settings "A=Upshift" "Z=Downshift" "C=Clutch"
not to mention that wheel must be awesome.. 6 gear shifter clutch pedal.. good made materials.. i have the logitech momo force feedback.. now i see this ive should have waited for the g25 lol
i agree with the fact that this movieclip is a bit dull .. but then again its not finished yet.. it gives you an idea how lfs would be with real engine sounds.
the idea is indeed based on getaway in stockholm .. engine sounds are from getaway in stockholm 2 (escort cossworth and supra).. the idea of the whole movie (this is still unfinished movie) is to race with police chases.. like in the real getaway in stockholm movies and ghostrider movies.. same idea
for those who havent seen it yet.. you really might like the LFS back to the future movie.. this is imho my best made movie..
knight rider movie is still in the making but the intro trailer is pretty funny.
i recently discovered that all of my download links were down
due to filefactory.com expiration of my hosted files.
so now i uploaded all of my stuff to a highspeed server (xtremesr.com)
no ads, no queues or waiting lines just fast downloads.
Thanx to my buddy DeadX
also i fixed my mod packages (removed old LFS.exe in archives) to work with the latest LFS 0.5U
without problems and is completely backwards compatible
Also you can find my new email address in the readme.txt files provided in the zip archives..
hmm you guys never seen my knight rider intro movie (LFS)... im still working on the complete KR LFS movie .. but i have to wait untill i get my last season 4 dvd box of knight rider.. here is the download link... enjoy
yeah this thread is ment to discuss the mod/part issue.. not a flaming war anyway.. i can clearly see the fear that lfs is going to be a ricergame when adding parts to it... but that would only happen if you would add streetrace tuning features in it.. i dont think it would be that bad if lfs had circuit racing parts (something DIFFERENT then streetrace parts).. also for example if we exclude engine parts.. but maintaining the other parts.. it cant go that bad. i remember an old game were you were actually constructing your own engine (bolting ur parts and stuff).. was really cool and you could adjust every single parts parameters.. if LFS had this.. it would be very nice.. im honest.. im not a car mechanic... but ido think its possible to add parts and keep lfs a nice game whatsoever..
plz forget about the ricer / nos NFSU issue.. (you know what i mean)its about circuit racing parts.. it shouldnt be compared anywhere near streetracing or other racing games like forza/gt4/pgr/nfs..
if lfs would be having parts.. it should be different then all other games (makes it special)
different tuning.. different parts system .. just a completely different system..
and yes it may not attract racers.. but mechanics would be interested i think if the race parts/tuning system would be incredibly realistic..
anyway .. ima keep on dreaming it wont happen anyway..
well in my words.. lfs is realistic when it comes to physics.. aero. forces etc.. but i think it misses the rest of the realism options.. there is so much more that can be added in the game to make it more realistic..
i can understand people dont want parts in LFS.. but i dont really agree about the fact that parts dont have a purpose.. in contrary.. it all has to do with aerodynamics and downforce as well..
maybe people dont want engine tuning parts.. but same power.. different tuned aerodynamics and downforce in the same car..
if we talk about parts.. it would be circuit racing parts (only wings tyres spoilers kits engine upgrades etc etc) like it is today on existing racing circuits..
not streetrace parts like NFSU etc..
it would work if the option i mentioned about the mod parts enabled/disabled exists for admins..
if people get smoked by high tuned racecircuit cars.. they can join a non-mod server..
would take quite some time for devs to create mod parts from scratch and reprogram lfs and stuff i think... its not like crowded EA only few good devs that created LFS...
anyway .. about this whole mod thingie.. i was thinking..
if mod features would be enabled online.. i think a new option should be created for lfs admins (that creates lfs servers)
option like : Allow Mod Parts (Yes/No)
so admin can decide wether they want to allow or disallow mod parts on their server
i will upload as soon as its finished.. itll probably contains 2 or 3 scenes at max.. so im not planning to make a 30 minute getaway movie. would be kinda boring
