Hi, since i have updated my windows, lfs Editor don't open, and i have this error named "No modes found" every time i try to open it.

How should i fix it? Thanks.

I wonder if there is any more info in the deb.log text file? I should probably add some more logged info for startup errors.

Could you try deleting (or renaming) the cfg.txt file? Then the editor will try to start up like a fresh installation.

I hope this is the right place:

It seems like one of my new mods causing LFS to go crazy again

The BOX CAR 250 causes absurd amounts of dust being send into air. And not only that, the dust flies backward & forwards. It's not a crazy overpowered car, it only got 16bhp.


Please check the replay from 1m 43s and use a camera similar as shown in the screenshot.

Thanks.

This problem can be eliminated by the "Avoid simple physics" option (that also prevents remote cars with high anti-roll settings jumping on the start grid).

The equivalent of "Avoid simple physics" is always set for karts. I'm wondering if it should simply be enabled for all vehicles now. There is a certain CPU cost that can be observed by pressing the F button in the CPU usage display (available at top right of Misc options).

The trouble with your mod (without looking into it in detail) is the wheels are small and light. The "simple physics" doesn't operate at a high enough frequency to remain stable, although it is handled fine by the normal physics.

Ah yea, maybe that option should be on by default and off by opting in.

I'm still a bit confused as there are other similar cars with similar light or small wheels, and don't have that issue, such as
GX BUGGY https://www.lfs.net/files/vehmods/6DF024
PEEPEE50 https://www.lfs.net/files/vehmods/D00AEE
THR MB500 https://www.lfs.net/files/vehmods/FC8A8B
PADDLEMOSCO https://www.lfs.net/files/vehmods/DEFB9E

It's also a bit unlucky that I cannot test it single player before releasing it for multiplayer.


Edit: Other thought: Maybe the smoke effects could also be turned off for simple physics.

I've came across another issue related to narrow cars.

It seems like when the track width is below a certain value (eg 800mm),
the cars are getting "sucked in" into objects.

I've made a short video showing the issue best:



Some findings from my tests:
- The main collision mesh seems not to be the cause, the wheels are
- Solid walls seem to work correctly, it's mostly thin objects like fences it's having problems with
- Making the track width >1000mm cures the problem (last scene in the video)

Would be great if this could be sorted, slim cars are popular

Thanks for the reports.

For three issues, I've released a minor update, Test Patch D35.

I don't know if it's the right place to report this bug, but depending on the position of the camera, the motorcycle's handlebars disappear, if you set it as a steering wheel, this doesn't happen.

FIX: Mudguard / handlebar / trailing arm remain visible if wheel is off screen

Misc option "Full physics for remote cars" is now enabled by default

FIX: Narrow cars were sucked in if driven too close to fence or narrow barrier

The patch works like a charm thanks

Greetings, I added a new configuration to the car and it didn't cause any problems when I started the game. But when I entered multiplayer, it was kicking some players from the game, and I removed this configuration from the game, now it does not. But how can I fix this configuration?

car name : YER6WORKS

?

Edit: Maybe try this...

Quote from Scawen :

Maybe you can achieve the same results by either reducing the number of textures (e.g. by using cutouts on fewer, combined, texture pages) or reducing the number of different material settings in the 'cutout' mode?

Are you using the newest version of the editor?

That is highly recommended.

yes i did it, i deleted the car interior for the fair version

Inside the website mod edit page, if you make a brand new mod and don't give it any descriptions. The "Save for later" button doesn't work properly. It returns this error for missing fields. Which doesn't make sense, if you want to write or fill this things later.

We're having problems with a car that is part of RandomCar series,seems like it was updated during yesterday's problems and now we're getting "Your vehicle is not known on this host" when joining.
The affected mod: https://www.lfs.net/files/vehmods/56D573

Thanks for the alert. A script had got stuck. Victor has restarted it so that problem should be fixed.

XRT MINI gives OOS - CAR when out of pit, cant be driven online it seems

XRT MINI creator here, for some reason I can use the mod on the server without issue, however if someone else attempts to use it, as already mentioned, they get OOS - CAR shortly after using the mod.

EDIT: Someone on the server managed to use it successfully, I'm not using any test patches and neither are they, maybe that's the main cause of the issue

(Your vehicle is not known on this host)

what the hell is that I updated my mod again and again but still not fixed.
Anyone can halp me?

Have you checked your email?

If you use a hack to exceed the limits, then your mod will not be accepted.

I'm working on a car which has different gauge colors in each car color (Tuttu The Dog's De Tolorato). I prepared my backing texture and putted it to main object. I binded gauges to m2 color slot. When gauge mapping named like "m2_speedo" or whatever, it looks good without problem, but after the extracting it to game folder with test mod in lfs button, in game it gets darker. But when i remove "m2_" prefix from the mapping name it fixes the problem (naturally this time it gets fixed color.)

Here is the photo when m2 prefix is added to mapping name:


And it shows in game like this:


When m2 prefix is removed from name:



And it shows in game like this when m2 prefix removed:

hi, i don't know if someone else has this issue, maybe it can be fixed then.

It happens really often and makes the game almost unplayable.
if someone exits the pits there is a second lag where even the steering wheel loses ffb which is weird because when you're drifting for example, you're already dead.

I'm not sure where to post, here or in the suggestions but I'm trying to update the drift vers of 400Z, I made a new body kit (in config 5) and a new lod2 for it (pic1), but when I press the button to export the mod for upload, it says that there is no lod2 (pic2). As i get it, it was cuz of the lod2 not in the main, but i cant put lod2 there cuz of the message of 32k limit(pic4), but for config 5 i have only 23k in main (pic3)...but still it not working

And i remember that i was able to put lod2 in configs that exeeds 32k, cuz i have done it with all my other bodykits and lod2 for it, (i have different lod2 for each of config bodykit) and all others configs have more than 32k, and now i cant do that some reason for config that have less then 32k...
And i have a bunch of errors that i already fixed (pic2), there no errors in modeller and if I press on H it doesn't show any errors. Looks like some bug for me or I did something wrong?

Edit: i checked others mods and yes, i able to put lod2 in confings that have more then 32k, but i cant do that in my mod somereason.

P.S I have 0.7E5 version.

The way LOD2 works has changed recently, maybe you're falling a foul of this?

I checked it and this doesn't explain why:

1. I able to put lod2 in confings that have more then 32k in some mods, but i cant do that in my mod somereason.

2. I have messages of errors that arleady fixed.

3. I cant add Lod2 (about 1k triangles) in duplication mesh of others lod2 or by merging subobject with new lod2 in main config that have only 24k.
