We try to be very diversified in combos on our server. It's not all-time online - but when it's online, most of the time we have atleast 3-4 team members online. The advantage is: if people see a host with more than one guy driving - it takes about a second until the third joins and so on... But you need at least 2 drivers online.

The server was long time called "Lions Racing Team", not its called "auto² - Facts & Emotions". Alot of TBO on different tracks, alot of LX6, LX4 on different tracks. Currently we have the nearly mainstream combo XFR+Kyoto National activated. But as soon as we get bored (not a long time to go ) we will change it.

Tristan and nikimere already had a go, so far i know. This evening (in 1 to 2 hours) we will be there - always administrated and just there for fun

Hope to see you

PS: Yesterday we had such a good run, we used XRG with Bob's road going set, and the faster ones had to take 4 passengers on board. And all that on never driven before track (FE Gold reverse). So much fun!

I hope not. How should we change the "tyre-pressure"? By changing the steel stiffness of these "tweels"? Or what else these things are out of

PS: These pics are rather old, so i don't think that we will see them soon on tracks!

How to get the LFS-Usernames in a race?
Warper
S3 licensed
Hi there,

we are running a dedicated host in our flat-share: auto² - Facts & Emotions. Today it was the first time i tried to kick someone, but i didn't get his real LFS-Username, only his current Player-name. The problem is, the dedicated host isn't in my room, so i'm unable to use the "/names" command to switch between Player-Names-List and LFS-Usernames-List. I want to be able to kick from my client view logged in as an admin.

How am i able to get the real Username?

PS: I did use the search function, but didn't found a proper thread. And i don't think this fits in the Beginner's section - just because i'm not a beginner

Greets and see you on our host,

Quote from Big Daddy :That step was sure to come. It is impossible to create the best racing sim just with 3 people. Sorry Scawen and the LFS Team to say this, is just my opionion, you can inteprate it the way you want.

I said the same thing one or two years ago. LFS has to get commercial. S1 was so great because it satisfied our needs of having a great sim. Graphical and other aspects were unimportant for us. Moving forward to S2 ended up in a self made barrier, you wanted to make the game to be an allrounder, not only great physics, but also better graphics and so on, just to get great valuations in gaming mags and to satisfy then needs for more gamers. But now 3 years later we are still waiting for S2. Yes it will defenately come out, but the train, the train for the big hit already left. When I saw the BMW Sauber in LFS I thought that it can only get better for LFS, but after that nothing really happened. That s not the way.

The train already left, but you can take the other (last) one train. To work for a publisher. Sure, LFS was thought to be a game, without any influences from a publisher, but there arent any much chances anymore for the game.


You can get the breaktrough in working for a publisher with a big team, or you can still develop a game that ends up in his own labyrinth, one that blends into a pale beige landscape.

You can become a worker who is working so hard in his whole life before he will see that in his whole life he did nothing or very little achieved, or you can become a top manager, who succesfully used his talents positively...

Sry for the hard words, that is just my opinion, it is NOT personally meant I respect your talents, that s why I even posted this here, I know that all other gamers will be against me, but dont waste your time of commenting my post for me, I wont look here anymore, I just visited the site by luck.

Good luck

Sorry for my hard words also Big daddy, but you talk crap...! Only my opinion.

@ Victor: Thanks for the revolutionary LFS world and all the other stuff. Like you 3 said in one of the earliest interviews: You don't want to look into all the racing games and just redo them in a better way. You all want to create your very own interpretation of the perfect online racing sim. Scawen did that with the physic way and all that stuff and you REALLY did that with the websites too. LFS World just doesn't look like a website, nor does it look like anything that had been there before. So, thanks for the great work. And remember: we need music for S3 also

Quote from yari :some1 told me that when u press gas, the sound comes on about 3 seconds after,basically the sounds are not in sync with the game ? can this be fixed?

If all settings are set correctly, then maybe the computer is the problem. Tried the app at first on my notebook and thought it is some big piece of crap. Because none of the sounds fitted to the game, every sounds were delayed...

But today i tried it on my main lfs machine and it is a lot of fun It really works well...

I hope this will be implemented sometimes

Quote from jtr99 :A nice point, Kev.

I wonder how much we could tell about someone's race personality by looking at what their chat bindings are? I'd be leery of anyone whose chat bindings include the word "noob" (double points if in all-caps), any more than one exclamation mark, or indeed the phrase "blue flag".

Oh no, don't do that... you could think that i'm a wrecker, because i've binded: "I hope you have a good car insurance". It's just funny if any idiot is wrecking some cars at T1 or if a friend just don't get the corner while fighting

Quote from Scawen :Well... twice.

There was one incident recently - either the router or the modem just needed a restart, for no apparent reason, it just needs to be rebooted every six months or so.

And today, something completely different, totally my fault as I was changing some router settings. Sorry about that. Hopefully the hosts will all gradually come back online now over a few minutes.

Is the masterserver hosted at your home??

I just bought rFactor license for driving on a just released news scratch made version of the Nordschleife. You know why i'am now the luckiest man in the world? Because there is a 48hour money back guarantee... i used it right after 4 hours driving.

The game is just... it's so uncomplete - just the usability isn't really good. The fictional car models just don't look like cars, they do have so many mistakes. And i don't start talking about the physics...

Hi there...

BMW M3 (E92) (incl. Video)


Audi R8


Aston Martin DBRS9


Porsche Cayenne Facelift


Mini Traveller


Porsche 911 (997er Facelift)

Na na na ...

The "Döttinger Höhe" is the one and only part of the track you could name a straight. It's a bit uphill and it's currently just the very end of the track, if you drive the tourist course. The exit is in the middle of this very long straight.

In races, you have the Döttinger Höhe and some corners after that the GP track...





Greets...

What the ****. That is not german! These are (maybe) names in dutch...

Some examples for the real corner names are:

Kesselchen
Hatzenbach
Döttinger Höhe
Flugplatz
Karussel

Interestin weekend to come...

Hi there,

i have to tell you that for me the next weekend will be something like mind blowing.

On sunday i'll go with some mates to the Nürburgring. And we will fight (ok, we'll drive slow as hell) the Nordschleife with my car. I'm very afraif if the mother thinks to let me live...

But on monday we will take part in a drift training with the LX4 at the Nüburgring (some say, normally it's called a caterham) for the whole day. I'll make a bunch of pics and maybe some videos too.

Sorry guys, but i had to tell that someone

Oh my god. If we would get a nascar style car - it would be cool. But Please, if this ever comes true: Not one of these new round and ugly ones. We need an old one, of these with sharp edges and a really oldschool body like this one:
