Aren't the screenshots supposed to be taken in X configuration?
Without spectators it would look weird for race tracks but for open config I personally don't mind.

That looks great, especially at night! Keep up the good work!

Are the new tracks going to affect lap times and uploaded hotlaps?

Yes

Yes. Especially considering it's likely this will be released with the new tyre physics.

Juicy. Just like the new lap times...
Although I have a sneaking suspicion that it will be released in two separate stages...

So you are simulating how eyes are working in real life?! Wow. It would be interesting to study how human body is responding to different situations in a real race and transfer those phenomena in a racing simulator. I can imagine how eyesight changes in highly stressful situations (e.g. during high speeds or sudden loss of car balance).

I hope to release the new tyre physics with the graphical update.

I'm happy and sad at the same time. My 200 hotlaps since february just goes to waste, redoing them is pain in the a$$
With this info i also lost motivation to do more hotlaps until the update

A lot of people will be in the same boat as you. I would advocate for an archive of all hotlaps and PBs, even if it's just for statistics nerds and/or nostalgia. There's a lot of data there which has a lot of history. We already lost historical data of a few older versions of tracks over the years so I'm not sure if the Devs would consider this.

lapping = training, nothing is waste !

Not entirely convinced any update is coming soon, so I wouldn't be thinking like this just yet.

Since we havent seen anything from Fern Bay, Id say there is at least extra 6 months before the update gets released.
Maybe a Christmas present? (just giving ideas)
Cannot wait!

Just an idea. Maybe release new version with only the finished tracks.
Offcourse I don't know if Scawen allready ready for that.
I mean new tyre physics netcode and dx11

Yeah I'm aware they aim for that but I doubt it'll follow through, if it does I'll be damned

The old tracks then would not work. It's one way update, breaking the old stuff, so everything needs update.

Unless you want new version with unfinished tracks disabled...

I suspect we may have, like it happenned in the past, a test version without everything directly (like Blackwood only) for some times before the whole release can take place.

I wouldn't mind that there are less tracks available for some time

Quote from THE WIZARD DK :

how da heck did i miss that one.

Obviously because you write way more than you read.

Thanks Scawen.

I still can't believe LFS is getting this beautiful. Nice work.

Thx for the Report.

you laughing at people with every report/shot it's so surreal it almost seems like a joke

What do you mean... explain yourself, you little troll.

I'm glad you're still working on this game.
