okay, on a server you can turn car reset on or off.

so how about a way to just turn clutch/tire wear on/off or add a reset/recool hotkey that is allowable on a server.

-1 ,sorry

How about an option where u can't crash into a wall at 200KPH and continue with no suspension damage at all..option would be always on ofcourse

-1

There are other games with more arcade like characteristic.

Also, what happens to LFS world stats when you can ignore damage and abuse car to no limit at all, hopping over kerbs etc, would not be fair against those that keep damage on.

-1

As what ^ said, would not be fair

I have to say I am against this. All the damage related stuff changed the way people drive for the better. They drive less like its PGR or GT4 and drive like they are in a car.

But then I would like the car reset option fully removed anyway

Also shift-p should go

-1...I believe it's an option for NFS Carbon servers...

liek plz can u maek it so u can liek drift 4 eva w liek magic tires kthxbai

LMAO!

First post failed miserably.
You have included 328 images in your message. You are limited to using 50 images so please go back and correct the problem and then continue again.

Sorry you bought a simulation.

If you want to drift without obeying the laws of physics try NFS or (apparently) overpowered shopping cart you have

Quote from JTbo :

Agreed, but as an online option that in order to enter the pit "options" area for setup changes, etc, you have to pit your car.

ugh....

i didn't ask for lack of damage.

i didn't ask for walls you can bounce off of with no reprocussion.

i tried to offer a solution to the clutch issues the drift people are having, which was instead of an overall car reset, just a pit stop refresh without the pit stop.

some of you people need to stop taking this forum so oMg sRsLy!!1, if you want to claim the bigger penis fine. but this was asking about a drivetrain reset or drivetrain damage on/off for some servers.

part of the reason i play games on the internet is so i dont have to load the trailer, strap down the car, drive wherever, unload, check, reload, go home. some people use this as a video game because they dont want all the hassles of real life bullshit, they just want to e-drive.

But if you want to play LFS instead of go somewhere IRL, whats wrong with clutch damage? It's totally realistic, and makes LFS much better overall...

Also if you like more game like approach, perhaps some other title is better suiting to your needs?

Anything related to physics are very unlikely to get any options as it would mess things quite easily.

If you can't drift without burning your clutch, there's only one thing wrong. Your crap! Go practice drifting without any silly gear changes or stuff like that, drive the car as you would while racing but just slide it. I can pop my tires before i burn my clutch, you must be doing it wrong.

gotta love the e-hardasses like above.

the clutch wear isnt realistic for drifting. if you think im some random internet racer maybe you should do some research. im not going to toot my own horn but seriously, can everyone stop looking at the internet as a pissing contest? so lame. wish my penis was as big as yours buddy.

back on topic if possible, adjustable wear on server setup would be cool.

say if you were setting up a drift forum and didnt want everyon to have to pit every lap, then maybe a way to turn clutch/tire wear off or resettable would be a cool option to have.

im going to ask though that nobody tell me how to drive, i know its obviously very difficult for some of you users of teh intarwebzz to not have to tell everyone how better you are, but spare it.

That option is not going to happen, quite frankly.

As for whether the clutch is realistic we really need to get some value or measurements, or else we are all just talking empty.

mikespeed95, do you have a penis fixation?

Tell me one thing. How I, a really crap driver, can't seem to be able to burn the clutch unless I deliberately try. But you, the super 1337 zomgftwwtf!1!111oneoneelevenz driver and drift0rzer, have problems with it?

If you really want I can take a picture of my willy and send it to you for comparison. PM me with the details.

I would be SOOOO shocked if this isn't sigged...


Clutch heat at the moment is uber-realistic...that's why drifters IRL don't do 20 laps of a racing circuit...
If you are burning the clutch, check to make sure that your foot is fully off the clutch pedal (no, seriously, that happened me after i got my g25 lol). Making wheel-spin does not cause clutch slip in a road car...

I many many thread I have asked you the following and EVERY time you ignore me. So here we go again.

PLEASE take an SPR of what you think the problem is. SHOW US.

Then we can see what you are on about.

The ball is in YOUR court!

Yeah just bumped into it, what timing

Did anybody else watch Jools Holland? I laughed even harder than I did in Life of Brian when he had Bernie and Jackie Stewart sitting on the same table

I've drifted several laps of blackwood without burning the clutch, and I am not talking about feints either - power-on drifting here... Its not hard at all, the thing I could semi-agree with is the tires heating up quickly - so put max pressure and use the highest temperature compound you can. I haven't had any problems with the clutch, only the tires - but in real life drifting EATS tires faster then you can say whoops... If you notice cars take breaks during drifting sessions, this allows the tires to cool back down...

Also some tips with the clutch- since a lot of people seems to need some tips:

1) Make sure your foot is released off the clutch when driving. DON'T leave your foot resting on or near the clutch.

2) After disengaging the clutch quickly do NOT slam your foot on the gas - the clutch hasn't had a chance to stop slipping. This is the main problem I would bet. So let the clutch grip then apply more throttle. There is a distinct sound when your clutch is slipping because the engine RPM's are moving faster then your tire RPMs. Do NOT confuse this with your wheels spinning, cause it may be your clutch slipping!

3) After shifting up or down (even using auto clutch) be sure the clutch is engaged before applying the throttle...

4) And during a clutch kick to boost your engine RPM's you need to allow the clutch to grip again - this will eat your clutch if you do it wrong. However properly done its fine - I use it when needed. So do the normal clutch kick, with your foot on the throttle, then *just* after releasing the clutch your wheels will start spinning, and essentially sliding. At this point release the throttle a bit, let the clutch grip and apply the throttle again. That may seem to make the clutch kick pointless but then your mis understanding the point of the clutch-kick as the above description still gets the car sliding... A lot of people have the tendency to leave their foot on the gas and never let the clutch properly grip therefor burning it up quickly!

Tips two, three and four are all the same thing in different cases!



Lastly - all of that is coming from a racer, who does enjoy drifting from time to time just to learn the balance of the car. I am trying to help you guys out because the clutch is perfectly fine - you need to use it correctly though. And in real life beating on your car costs money. Drifting is very harmful to engines and transmissions, including the clutch when done improperly.

Mike the thing is that you drift your drift car IRL and you probably clutch kick and such but your clutch is made to stand that kind of things. In LFS the clutch is for racing and therefore you should just try not to clutch kick and it should be fine. I dont burn my clutch in LFS.

This feature is the same as car reset but you can use it while moving? Did I understand this right?
