Quote from Scawen :

Well you are wrong about that because the graphics update is far more recent than that.

If we are going to talk about what was promised when, then the conversation isn't going to get very far.

If you read the first post, I was wondering if there was anything we could do to improve attendance in the current version, and I specifically asked to avoid a discussion about the graphics and physics, which I acknowledged already as what I need to do on my side.

Men give an update when new graphics expected
also when new progress report

Quote from timdecnodder :

My response focused more on 2 other parts, but ok if you just pick that out, but if you see how online racers dropped from 1000 avg. to only 150 avg. now, i think it’s pretty obvious where the lower playerbase <-> attendence is hurting the community in relation to events, VWS was only mentioned an example of the update list promised over 10 years ago…

VWS not gonna change anything my men Especially now whit vehicle mods

And i heard it shet to drive

real life simulation

Rallycross isnt popular

They lose interest bigmens

No money prize,enough to look at Buggyra,high prize high attendation
Same whit TRR,high prize high attendation

There's like 4 "fun" league that has 30+racers/race

FM GTi Thursday
FM Fox Friday
MRc FBM Saturday
Race Green events


MRc Bf1 League was weird,first 2 round had 30+ drivers then suddenly max 12,car too fast for them

But LFS is not a game.

Ye LFS is a movie

Quote from adirany :

If we think about it a moment, we have enough cars of quality to race with.

A real racer can spend several seasons (years) with the same car. And if he is a beginner with a low powered car.

So I dream for a simulator which contain only three cars for the first year. A formula vee (for open wheelers), a mazda miata (for street cars) and a late model (for ovals). It can evolve after that with more powerful cars.

The cars have to be build by a solid team of developers not by a user lambda (problem of trust and competence).

The problem is that LFS cars are all outdated (being developed twenty years ago).

All of this are iracing things...so there you go dream simulator

Quote from adirany :

I would insist on the fact that making a quality car is very complicated.

The XFG and the Swift are both front wheel drive and have approximately the same power.

Every lap in the XFG is a pure joy.

I tried the Swift but sorry I can not say the same for it.

How can you enjoy FWD cars

Quote from adirany :

I really think that it will be difficult to find a modder with the skills of Scawen for making cars or the skills of Eric for making tracks.

As lfsrm said this is a small team of developers.

But a new car or new (laser scanned) track from time to time should be possible.

Personally I refuse to use any mod because I think that a user can not develop a car for another user (It does not have the technical knowledge to do so).

No need for laser scanned track,just make something great like South City!

Topic name is "Mods, good thing or bad thing for LFS"

Quote from Evolution_R :

I still don't get it, why you think it's a bad thing? Please explain. Because people can't make a proper mod? After all we are not pros at this. But if more modders are using default LFS cars as reference - it would be OK-ish.

By the way there are already some mods that are very strange (unappropriate) and I don't know why are they even published. I find them somewhat offending, but I won't mention any names.

I have nothing to explain.I agree there are great mods,but i dont get the reason why allow mods like bin,plane,antivax.If u look after what is Live For Speed, it says "Live for Speed is a serious racing simulator." You guys want to have serious car racing whit bins-planes?

I'd say keep 10 great,well made mods,add those to current available cars.


What LFS needs (In my opinion) is
-Tyre physics
-Day/Night cycle
-New track configurations
-And finally get rid of eric kerb (this thing basically kills racing)

xd

Bad thing for lfs.

Quote from ALFSRACER :

" It's no longer a racing game " I hear this everyday ! ( How great it used to be )
I came here to play a racing sim , I have only been here less than a year BUT, I don't see much racing. IS more like a meet and great look at my skin environment. The chat is out of control ! Such language and hate should not be allowed anywhere!
The mods are pretty , but what does that have to do with racing?

The established servers with the same regulars are running most times, but, they are not friendly to newer players and have little patience to offer help. ( Which I would think would create MORE licensed racers)
So if it used to be that great ..what happened? What changed that it is not ? AND what can we all do to help it be great again !
Sorry to rant but I feel better !

You dont see much racing because u demo jajajaja

Tragic

Oh,you guys still working on the mods...
Thought its graphics update time

Quote from MandulAA :

Welcome to the licensed club!
While most races and servers are using S2 or S3 content consistently, sometimes there are races which happen on S1 tracks with S1 cars: that's the case for tonight's FM GTi Thursday race as well. (BL2R / XFG, XRG; One-shot quali starts at 19:30 UTC / 20:30 CET, then two 16-laps races, all broadcasted live by Sim Broadcasts on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/simbroadcasts)
A popular combo, we expect the server to be full with ~40 racers tonight I noticed you mentioned race and cruise as well, but if you feel like racing tonight, feel free to join!
