Heh right on Col, I enjoyed your comment so much I have wrote a Guide to help the future race(r)s
"Guide to a happier life."
One Man once said to me "I think this period where the physics engine has stayed relatively the same for the last years or so has been golden.
"Hmmm golden" you might say. I say it has been a perfect time to really get to understand how my sets work with the cars I drive, the people i Race against.
People complain of the same tracks, I do long for more tracks and open configs made LFS alot more interesting and I have found a few to be quite excellent indeed.
Did I mention some of the racing in the last few years has been closest and best ever!!!!!
Other people and I mean by this, a large majority of LFS users, get bored way
way to easily.
I often wonder if they "did not play chess as a child, or snooker, football baseball basketball or go climbing swimming? build a rope swing, ride motorcyle, drive a car etc"
Obviously if your a girl its things like "barbie, getting away with everything and advanced lie detection and torture, and nail and beauty class"
But back to the guide people
If "they" "you" "me" actually live a Life, where others depend on others or things break, you learn all to quickly this lesson.
Learning to plan ahead and understanding that some things need to be done before others, quite important fact of life.
Even more important putting this all into context.
LFS is a Online Racing Simulator.
This is a Forum for the above simulator.
You are quite possibly sat down on a chair.
See the window in the room you are in?
Look out there is something called "outside"
Waits for the meaning of the above few statements and questions to sink in.
Now unless you live in a cave or are locked in a room at work (yes ok i know there are two at least here who fall into this ( Hi Scawen and Eric) )
You may be permitted to leave the building. if you still are unable to see outside.
If you feel unable to remove your rear from the chair or whatever seating device you might find yourself attached to.
There is thing called "other stuff" this is much more interesting then negatively commentating on things of which mostly no-one knows anything about, discussing this can lead to madness, as witnessed here quite possibly.
If you are unable to find "other stuff" there is thing called power switch.
IF still unable to grasp there is more to life then complaining, Wait a few minutes and reality may ressume.
might be no hope if you come back on-line with your phone to read the next part.
"Try doing something else for a bit"
And here is important part, once you done enough of other stuff, can always come back to LFS to check if overcooked or not.
Some people.... even though they know its a 3 man team + with help from the community, continue to attack the process and the progress.
It has slowly turned into the 3 man team vs community. Anyone standing up gets taken out by the sniper trolls.
Saddens me to see LFS being critised, now that is fine as long as done in the right way.
But here in its own forums the topics and arguements that make more orbits then all the satalites combined makes even "The Zohan" sad, dizzy and confused.
All he want is silky smooth LFS race!
The levels of stupidity from perhaps a selfishness on both sides for all the wrong reasons
has brought it to this point
But time will tell if I am right or wrong, or if all are all wrong, and no-one was right, and those that were right, even being proved wrong at the end.
*ed* "How to right that wrong the right way if it really went that wrong."
Maybe if I avoided all the cracks on the pavement for a day .....
Or maybe hope for a new colour in the rainbow
The world would be a nicer place perhaps....
But really all I want Victor to design a dream
Eric to just use his art to silence the madness
and Scawen to drive the darkness away.
More then all I want to see more love around here guys, if you feel LFS is losing its way, lets be positively constructive. Hate is a horrible emotion that spreads like a wave, wether you realise it or not. To me its a failing of modern society, this fashion of hate and cool.
anyways
don't worry be happy now
