The online racing simulator
A car building option for S2 users only

sounds like a master plan to me

some elaboration would be nice.
But you're probably talking about the ability to use bodykits, or other car parts, which would be useless and more appropriate in certain other games. Not to mention it has been suggested quite often before.

I thought I put you on my ignore list.... oh well... here he goes again
once again... as always i say no to anyone besides eric to model stuff for LFS

thats the problem, when you get other people into it, everyone has their own style, and .. after a while, stuff doesn't fit together right; right now everything in LFS seems to match because its been done by 1 person, when you add even 1 more person, stuff starts to look different

This will go down as one of my favourite posts of all time.
Yeah, we should all add Jakq to our ignore lists.

Is this some sort of euphemism for ricing or modding?

Looks like it to me.

Quote from Vain :I'd like it if servers could define technical regulations.
The server would define what stats the cars have. E.g. a server could make the XRT be a naturally aspirated 3.0 litre inline 6 with 240 bhp, slicks and a weight of 1150kg.
It's basically only for leagues, because you need a setup for each specification, but I don't do any other driving, so it's senseful that I suggest it.

Vain

do you mean as an lfs tweak type thing where every admins could balance the cars in his own way or as a technical regulation that sets some limits on homologation for each drivers own tweaks ?
I would like it like lfstweak, you select a car, switch the engine, widen the tyres etc. Limitations on engine position/size for diffrent chassis, tyre width, weight.

The car gets a name, Kit Car KC0 to KC9 (10 different versions based on weight/performance), so you can compete online.

No visual change except the tyres and a bulge in the hood if you add too large engine

Stock content of LFS should be stock content and if there ever is going to be some possibility to add stuff there should be own mode for that which won't interfere with stock content at all.

I also do like to race my league races without any odd things, even already I see skins that try to resemble van in UFR or some different car's lights that don't match even a bit etc.

Painting and decaling a car must be done respecting form of the car. Well ricers know how to do it wrong IRL too
Quote from Vain :Yes, very similar.
The idea is very simple and doesn't need much explanation. I don't believe any of the devs agrees with me on it though, but I guess one should always voice an opinion if it is constructive.

Vain

i love it when i get a yes or no for an answer to an either/or question ^^

I didn't even notice the "or" until I read it again, after Shotglass brought it up. haha
Quote from Vain :Actually the sentence made perfect sense when I skipped the "or".
Technical regulations are nothing but balancing, so I don't see a difference anyway.

Vain

ok the difference would be something along those lines
EITHER:
give the admins acess to a tweak type application the clients then download and apply those tweaks automatically and everybody drives the same cars
OR (should i turn up the size as well for you to spot it ? ^^)
give the admins acess to a mechanic type app to set some restrictions on the cars and the players will have acess to a tweak type app that allows the to change their own car
so everybody will drive a different car within a certain bandwidth set by the admin (maybe could be used to simulate some kind of long time wear as the season of a league progresses)

Does she go, eh? Does she? Does she? Eh? Woof-woof, brrrm, brrm!

Quote from Vain :Which is basically the same thing, because either the admin forces everyone to use the same car statistics or everyone uses the best car statistics allowed. Doesn't make much difference to me.

Vain

the second system would only be viable for leagues anyway which could be done in such a way that every driver has to finish his tweak before the season starts and has to drive the entire season with that car
if driver would keep their tweaks private till the start of the season youd have a nicely mixed field

Quote from Mass ignore list thread :Admin CP...

I only have access to the Moderator CP, which only lets me ban him.
Have you got any of those biscuits left, Bob? This may be a long night...
why goto all that trouble just to race a car with the same spec.... what about everyone just race the same car illepall

that way everyone one does have the same spec and if you want a faster car ... pick another

and besides, this isnt really the forum for this... and idea like this would be more likely to be insim mod, (basicly LFSTweak but with fixed values)

-------


If you want to add body kits, neons and crap like that... go get need for speed, this is a racing sim but if you really want a XRT or GTi with a bodykit just drive a GTR
