Quote from xgen :I am having a problem with the button reduction rate, I have it on the lowest setting possible and I still cant get a gradual start in the high power cars, does it make a difference if I use left or right click for throttle? I am using right for throttle and left for brakes, just like a real car, and still cant drive anything that has some power behind it without spinning out of control, the only way I can get most cars going is double clicking a bunch of time untill it speeds up.

This is very annoying and I cant enjoy all of the cars, I dont have the money for a FF wheel yet and this is all I have.

What I've found to help with this is to switch on the Throttle Help for most of the GTR's (except FXR) and the Single Seaters. The side effect of course is that off the line you can be stranded a bit, so you still need a few double-clicks thrown in there.

Sorry, slightly OT, but....

Quote from Hankstar :I still have the same squash ball I "installed" under the brake pedal too..

How much of a difference does adding the squash ball actually make to the brake feel i.e. how close to a real life brake is it?

I'm sure I've got a copy on my home machine. I'll take a look and post back.

IRC, I believe the author of this program (peep1980) said that there were some problems with it working with S2, not sure on the details.

I found this thread on the RSC forum which talks about the LFSMM2 : http://forum.racesimcentral.com/showthread.php?t=198663

edit: peeps posted the zip file in that thread here: http://forum.racesimcentral.co ... =2664692&postcount=76

Mouse definitely. I still use a mouse and you'll get far more precision with it over the keyboard. Just practice, practice practice. I can now just about control the single seaters with a mouse (you'll need an S2 license for those cars).

Some tips though when using the mouse with the XRT - set the button reduction rate (I think that's what it's called under the control section) to a low value, that way the acceleration increases more gradually and helps prevent wheel spin and the backend snapping out.

Very, very nice - I bet you can't keep out of the seat now that you've finished! (or have you? ).

Quote from Jakg :hmmm, just have a line of parked cars, then have one indicate and pull out, just show the damage street racing can cause innocents!

Hmmm, sounds like the "teh Carl is Back" movie by DoN.

Fantastic setup you've got there, I really like the video footage you posted earlier. Any chance of more??? (LFS maybe) especially with that new screen!!

Quote from Kajojek(PL) :Thank you for this good opinion about me. Did you stay any longer on that server Zero7??? Was that idiot still doing it??? Ah yes, we had a lot of fun yesterday.

Yes, I stayed a little longer (have another replay) and yes he was still wrecking, sitting on the racing line etc. Didn't change his name funnily enough.

Quote from B2B@300 :I think you can still see the Lic name by Shift + Ctrl in the replay also so report him to the server admin and even the developers if you've got the evidence

Yes, I'll probably do that, once I've worked out the server we were on! Thanks for the player name tip guys.

I can confirm this as I was on the same server as Kajojek PL (even got the replay somewhere - auto save replay does come in handy every now and then ). Was a real pain in the ass and this person spoilt a lot of fun we were having.

Nice racing while we had it though Kajojek!!

Quote from GP4Flo :No, there is an old freeware version (1.9D) available without the need to register.

Interesting...I didn't know that, thanks! **runs and downloads now!**

Most people use Fraps - a registered version as this doesn't display fraps.com at the top of the screen and you can record longer than 30 seconds.

Sounds a bit like the old Car Wars role playing game, remember those - you had an arena laid out on paper with paper cars, hit points, weapons etc! Really enjoyed that.

Think I'll give this one a go later this evening.

Not bad TiJay. The engine sounds seem nicely matched and the skid screech is pretty good, although it would sound better with varied skid sounds.

Great work! Although.....

It maybe me (probably!), but I've extracted the gloves into the data\dds folder (taking a backup of Gloves_A.dds) but they don't appear in game. Where do I select them from?

For me the FXR definitely, it's the only GTR I can control with the mouse. Second to that the turbos - FXO, RB4 and XRT.

I tried a friends wheel awhile ago and boy was it good! That's when I found the joys of running the FOX around SO.
