The online racing simulator
Wild Wicked Add-ons to LFS Da Best Racing SIM EVER!!!
ALL EVERYTHING YOU CAN THINK OF... go all out!!!
I think they should create an add-on garage where you can completely assemble a on road car or off road car(if possible) completely... like engine creation... and of course up grades in one shape of form with actual horsepower gains and losses cause you know sum cars don't like certain up grades after you've done so many things to a setup(real life) and it starts robbing you of power.... anywayz I'ma come up with more trust me... I'ma hardcore drifter in real life and luv this game and I'm upgrading in maybe a week or two... anywayz everyone ADD ADD ADD!!!! INPUT INPUT INPUT.. Latez
*sigh*

Please use the search function. Also, LFS will never become a Ricer game like you have just outlined, nor a Tuner game.
Lol this thread should be closed indeed... LFS is simulator not ricing game!
hmm, is it that time of year already?

Thanks for your opinion, here's mine:

LFS is an online racing simulator. I think the ideas you posted would undermine that concept completely.

kind regards.

How does it undermine the concept I think that LFS has more than proven itself to EVERYONE and I luv tha game and everyone else does also I'm just saying MORE options (mine may have been a little ricey... ok maybe alittle more than ricey) but I'm lookin for more actual race scene options like an add-on package for people that actually do it... not just circuit racing... what happen to time attack and the drift scene (in it entirety) I don't see no dolls hangin from no LFS drifters rear bumper??? thats all I'm saying...
This isn't NFS or Gran Turismo. To be honest you're barking up the wrong tree asking for that kind of stuff at this forum (just like the several hundred people who've asked for exactly the same things before you - the search function is your friend). LFS is an indie simulator made by three dedicated developers and the focus has always been on racing, pure and simple. Nothing I've read in the four years I've owned it gives me any reason to think that will change.

But hey, I'll cut you some slack because you're a demo racer who wouldn't have seen the full content this game has, plus you only signed up, like, last week and haven't had a lot of time to look around and check the forum out

Oh yeah, and enough with the "z" already
I resent your name calling, as I didn't call you any names at all. I was just outlining a point that such things you suggested have been: 1) suggested many times before, and 2) are unlikely to be implemented and kindly asked you to use the search function that vB has. I didn't use any vulgar words against you nor do I plan to. So please, just calm down.



+1 Dustin, I made a mature post, AND used the word resent!

ok ok I kinda thought you were coming at me sidewayz so to speak... itz koo my bad... anywayz so I drift and i know you all might shun on me for that but how do I play online with you all if I have the demo version... I have the new S2X but I haven't bought the license I'm waiting till next week... but yeah everyone on here is awesome in my book I respect a racer no matta what he does cause you have to start somewhere and its addicting like a drug.... lol anywayz I guess this is a fresh start and a HEY GUYZ whats up...lmao
Well, to get online with the Demo version, from the main menu, you should click Multiplayer, then Display list of Games, wait for the server list to refresh, and then find a server, most likely that says drift in its name, and join it, and have fun. In S2, there are many drift servers too, but currently it's LX month, so many people are mucking aound in their LX4 and LX6's.

It wouldn't work. To do it 'right' the engines will need to work like real one. You clearly have no idea how engines work, or how to tune them, and therefore your suggestion would be completely wasted on you (and the thousands like you who either don't know or don't care about how engines work).

Thus it would be a waste of time spending two or three years coding this 'sub-game' alone.

I'ma mechanic and I have a federal JOB and I'm prior Military and I do KNOW engines and I know german engineering kinda sort of and yes it would be possible (i wasn't saying it had to be as in depth as you came off) but yes it can be done its BEEN done with older styles of video game on XBOX and as with computer programming I'm sure with a crash course I could get back engouhb skill to tinker with it but I have a kid now so most of my time is goin to her bros... but yeah its possible and I do!!! Your right though that would take that long or even longer... ok scrath that what else could we do to make it more appealing on another level that would make cnet be like OMFG...lmao

So Tristian your the one everyone says to watch out for huh... how long you been on LFS... I'm new... whats it like...

I have a error when I go to log on DEMO status it says: could not extract: LFS_PATCH_X_TO_X10.exe

and yes I know there is a error thread everyone so please hook it up and spare me... thanks bros
Another usless thread by a demo user, Demo user should have there own demo user threads only and not post in licence forums. Am i being to harsh

But you started saying how certain upgrades will lose you power after a certain point - if they do that then you haven't thought about what you're doing. Upgrades UP GRADE your engine. Putting a snow plough on the car is an upgrade for clearing snow, but not for making the car fast. And you wouldn't put one on to make it faster...

Struggling to understand you. Slow down a bit.

Since August 2003. Not as long as some. Glad people told you to look out for me - I'll tell you how I see it, and I won't pander to you (or anyone) or be nice to people unless they deserve it. No point just being nice for the sake of it when a jolly good insult will make you stop and think S2 is great - it really really is.

Quote :I have a error when I go to log on DEMO status it says it can't patch from X to x10

Erm, sounds like a corrupted file or something. I'd say download LFS again and retry patching it. Is the official download on LFS.net X10?

Quote :and yes I know there is a error thread everyone so please hook it up and spare me... thanks bros

We'll let you off this time. But be aware that normal people (i.e. not Americans ) don't like being called Bros much. Enjoy LFS
See I didn't even need all that... bro with 153 posts go somewhere I might not be registered yet but I will be next week I'd own you at LFS probly but anyways why don't you help me maybe we'll be on the same team one day dang mannnnnnnnnn
@ jjones, I reckon you are being a bit harsh. Demo-bashing pisses me off more than demo users making re-run threads to be perfectly honest...

Soul, there's a reason there's an error/bug/tech help section - because the developers (who are most likely the ones who can help you) actually read it. They don't generally read this bit ... for some reason. Also, do yourself a favour and ditch the "I'd own you at LFS anyway" attitude. There's a very good reason Tristan has those race cars in his avatar (he's in one of them). But yeah, they were right to warn you about him
But Tristan, you're always nice to me! Is it because I deserve it?

And Hank, Demo Bashing isn't fun, but sometimes people have some anger. I somehow was able to keep all my anger from gushing out all over this person.
Dusty, he's nice to you because you're Canadian. Everyone likes Canadians!

Well, to be honest, I might've bashed Soul too, but it'd already been done by the time I got here, so now I'm being "good cop"
WoW ok I'll go D/L it again maybe it is corrupted...

normal people where your from don't... Where I'm from normal people... its a way of life... its like in australia where a cigaraette is a fag and they call each other mate... different customs and relations through out time so you can't definitively say NORMAL people cause it depends on where your from and I know this isn't a pompus site cause I've watched it from my hommies comp when he plays and interacts with you all and you all seem tight....<--- Slang


oh and I didn't really think it out like a programmer would cause thats really really indepth and I figure if the idea was truly striking they (everyone) would ask more but this is TRULY a RACING SIm and its staying that way much respect and I STILL LUV LFS that ain't neva gonna change cause I know a few things that piss me off about other wanna be racing simulators...seriously!!!

NHRA 2005, NHRA 2007 and I think the otha one is sega rally ( but I'm not putting money on that cause my hommie has the game I'll ask him if you really wanna know... ) but yeah theres NFS carbon which is ok but its tooooooooooooo ricey.. no true aspect of racing but it does have alotttttttttttt of positive points that i do enjoy like the speed shift and you gain momentum.... (everyone like that i think..) but yeah

I like how you are reminds me of myself (not being big headed) cause I don't take shit from peeps and I tell it how it is and I do have implementation for morals when needed ya know? anywayz koo I won't call you the dreaded bro term cause I know how that stuff is when you don't want someone calling you something all you had to do is ask dang... lol

Your koo in my book!!!
I didn't intend to bash him, I calmly pointed a few things out which he misconstrue (hurray for thesaurases) outta proportion.

On an unrelated note, and to quote a great man:

"Cocaine's a hell of a drug."
I really wish I could put this in my signature, because I'm starting to get RSI from typing it now.

There's no point having that kind of upgrading system, because eventually people will work out what upgrades work best on which track, and then everyone will use that same one. The result would be that everyone ends up using the same upgrades, meaning that you have a full field of cars which are exactly the same. And guess what? That's exactly what we have now.

So why don't you just imagine that you've turned your XRT exhaust into a potato gun, added bodywork made from your cupboard to increase drag (not downforce!) and turn up th bass on your speakers to give the effect of "yuor awsom suond syteemz0rz!11!" (because huge magnets must increase performance, right?)?
