I meant only for the cockpit view off course.. Well i still don't get it how people are not driving this sim "like it should".. and use those floating views, but let's not go there. The point is, you CAN'T turn your head backwards in the Formula and in Racing cars..
haha it is effort actually if you knew the whole story, If I turn it off 1 time, it should always be off.. but im not getting into it lol I don't know why its always on though?
Scawen said there's really no need to update the dedi server, as he's only making client-side changes/bug fixes. The only update in the dedi at this point would be the version string, and he's only doing it to please the ocd-people around here.
I found they kind of obey a blue flag, if the speed is drastically different. For example, out of boredom I put 12 FBM AI's and one UF1 on Blackwood; the UF1 would move over at the very last possible moment, kind of a "oh sh*t!" maneuver.
The personal taste is the best, because its personal!
About that reality: it would neither be possible to have a chase view, top down view, nor TV-view while racing, neither possible spectate others in real time. Virtual gauges and mirrors are ofc also a close to impossible thing to have... If i hade my own GTR car i'd also decide *myself* whether i'd had a H-shift or sequential. Also in IRL we feel feel g-forces in corners, brakes etc aswell as we got a wider look/perspective than what we get from our monitors. And we die if we crash har enough.
Its impossible to have it like IRL without being IRL. Not being able to look back in custom view is just stupid, in cruise servers it quite needed by cops to look around easily.
Personally i'd *REALLY* like some kind of 'real sim' (or as Boris said, 'like it should be') server setting, where racing participant only can use incar view. Only then you know that everyone are using the same view and have same (dis)advantages.
Again, to only stripe down this one *single* thing is just... stupid. Doesnt even out anything, just annoying for the ones that use it.
good news on the speedo. all I need is to know where 80kmh is and then the faster speeds don't matter . I also like the look left and right thing fixed too.
I think he (MaxH) and some others are just trying to say that maybe we could have limited viewing angles in Cockpit view only and the custom view allows us to look back as before in all cars. Then if people want to race against people with the same limited vision disadvantage then the FCV server's can accomodate that. It's almost like we are heading that way, well I hope so anyway, 'cause at the moment we can have people in chase view racing against people with limited views.
If this happens then possibly eveyone is happy, Both the "Hard Core" and "The Leisure racers/cruisers/drifters/draggers/police/robbers etc"
I hope I'm not sounding too ungrateful, I love LFS and would have paid tripple for what I have so far got out of it. Even learning the new clutch has been nicely frustrating, (like a new game level :schwitz
