Hi everyone. Recently started playing LFS. Delighted to find a racing sim that works on a modest computer. Been practising in training and single player for a bit, just had my first online race and it was awesome. I didn't even crash! (at least, didn't crash hard...)
Hello All,
I joined in 2009, played a bit but got sidetracked with life. Now, I'm back, with all the time and money in the world! So, after carving my initials in lots of guardrails, I will begin racing as I intended 14 years ago. I would appreciate any suggestions on wheel/pedal setups. I have a cheapo Logitech Momo racing G25. I build a tube steel frame to mount a seat, monitors and controls. I just need help choosing what to stuff it with and what systems work best on this site. Looking to have as much fun as possible before I turn 70. Cheers!
Welcome.
Regarding wheels, there is no "Logitech Momo racing G25."
The "Logitech Momo" and "Logitech G25" are two seperate models, not sure which one you have?
Those are the two wheels I also used and had lots of fun with both.
The Momo is a bit dated by now, with its small turning range of 240° (if I recall correctly) and the pedals feel quite lightweight but are useable.
The G25 is also older but still a good choice. It comes with a clutch and H-shifter which is nice.
The later models are named G27 and G920, I have not used those but I think not much has changed in their construction.
For the brake pedal, sometimes people put in a harder spring, pieces of rubber or a small ball so that the pedal feels stiffer.
There is also the option to modify the brake pedal with a "load cell", so that braking strength works by how hard you push the pedal, instead of how far.
Another popular brand if you are willing to "go up one step", also in price, is Fanatec.
There are also direct-drive Wheels, which give stronger and more accurate feedback but it can get pricey quickly.
If you are into electronic tinkering then you can throw in something like this:
For tripple-screen I had removed the frames on my screens (quite old ones with wide frames) so that I could put them closer together. In graphics options there is a useful setting "bezel compensation" where you can set how wide your screen bezels/frames are.
What is the problem exactly? There are only 3 unlock attempts per week. It gets reset every friday evening.If you used all unlocks already, you may ask developers for more.

You can start at [AA] Blackwood GTI server and drive XFG, you can ask anyone for car setup and some driving tips. Demo scene is quite popular, so you'll find many good quality populated servers to choose from.
