Iv bben looking at the LFS Manual and one of these people who does not like reading lines and lines of text and most of the time is like wtf i dont understand. so here my little question

In a summary how should i go about working on a set up for a track

[ example]
What i mean is
1. Ajust the stiffness of the spring down or up a few clicks
2 ajust the anti roll a few click

go out test these for x laps

[end of example]

and Please do not say try and use setups that are in this forum or any other website

cheers

Its a nice Idea but as said above, the dev want to make it relistic. and correctly if im wrong in normal motor racing (aka wtcc) if a car flips on to its roof. it cannot continue the race (unless its banner racing where its a different story) and are classed as retired from the race round.

if you are on about the crowd being 2d then if you look at the dd files (i think) it says 'test' meaning that it is only a test or temparary to see what loooks good and what does not.

this is my opinion and anwser. so please dont flame me or anything to this affect

You canot add ramps to that track..

And saying that he has not driven WE might be wrong too, because LFSW doesn't count offline racing. For all we do know he might have done 100 000 laps on WE and it still wouldn't show on LFSW

lol very true a good example is me Iv done a lot of laps ofline on msot if the tracks but you dont know as its not on LFSW :P

why cant he get it its not lfs that is the problem.
I have a crap connection and i get disconnected all the time but im not making a fuss about it and saying im going to sue LFS Developers which would be very funny to see and watch may i point out.

I think it is possably a program on your computer ( excluding LFS). i had a problem where my anti virus was not allowing a game to fucntion online, but was fine in SP mode.

or as said above maybe it your firewall. i do not own your pc so i can really say what the problem is.

it could even be your router if you use a wireless network to access the internet

Iv sorted the above out but know i have a new problem ( i think it my router that the problem and the way to sort it out is to move it. so my problem is:

Iv set up a host for a lan game and when i connect the local Laptops up they go online( to the host fine for say 30 secs then they disconnect andthen when i try and re connect to the host, a messagew boxapprears saying host timed out

i think as im having problems with my Wireless network in my host picking up the siginals asthe wireless card in it is not very powerful. so It should be a easy fix, ofmoving the router back in to the study

Quote from BurnOut69 :
IMO it should be revised for next season since having a logo for each race is nice for promotional purposes (broadcast, website), but forcing people to generate a skin for each race is a bit too much.

Its not 'forcing' people to change a logo its, just that MOE wants to be diffrent from other leagues and events and i like it. it does not take 5 mins to chance one detail on the car skin.

on a another bomb shel. i hope the best team wins in both GT1 and GT2

Quote from JWRPayne :Saviour!

One thing that has always put me off playing with setups is that I haven't got the faintest idea how my changes will affect the car.
Those links are very useful, thanks.

no probs

I must say it takes time to set up a car for a certain track ( just like in real life, oh wait its asim so it should be. but you dont have to get on the floor unscew stuff or get dirty. lol)

also try do a load of laps around Aston grand prix you lose tyre temp and at least one tyre will go cold and then it very hard to steer.

Quote from shiny_red_cobra :These issues are NOT public matter and have nothing to do with LFS, these are issues you have with the MOE league rules which the MOE admins wrote. There is no point in you posting this in General Discussion unless you are shaming the league admins. These are league-specific rules and there is nothing for the community to discuss, many of which don't race in MOE. You say you respect MOE, but then you post a thread in General Discussion attacking their abilities to enforce their own rules? I only see this as you shaming the MOE league. Take it up with the MOE admins, not the LFS community.
