Presumably that's a reference to me? I don't think I'm smarter than anybody here, just smarter than most who post in threads about redlines, rev limiters, and gear changing, which tend to be populated entirely by fools and morons.
Don't they? I though it got used a fair bit in XFG/XRG races? It's very entertaining, as the racing is very close (how close depends on the track, race length, and drivers' abilities)
Each time i'm in LFS, each time i visit CTRA Race 1 server and race there with XRG sometimes for a lot. You really don't know how much we in S2 actually drive with XRG.
How should i know how much you play with xrg?????Anyways as said i'm getting soon s2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!And yeah we should get back to the topic.....
I'm excited that's why.Anyways as feat said 3 TIMES let's get back to topic.I had seen somewhere a programm named ''shiftbuzz'' i think which made a special noise when your shift light goes on.Maybe we could change the sound.
But the shiftlight does not go on at the rev-limiter, but at the suggested shiftpoint. Also depends on gear ratios which means the pitch of the engine sound (rpm) varies. Every car's pitch is different. So i don't think that will sound anything decent. You need to match the frequency to that of the engine at rev-limiter otherwise it will sound horribly dislocated. Can't see this happening any time soon. The only right way is to implement it into the game, but i don't think that's very likely to happen.
So get over it and stop this ever lasting limiter requests
There's severals reasons which make the XRG less popular as a drift machine...
But as long it's RWD & N/A engine, its tamer enough to be a good trainer to learn driving RWDs & to drift...
Btw I personally prefer it to XRT or FZ5, it's definitely make you drive like a "kamikaze" to keep a drift last...
About the gearing tweaking, its not as hard as most people think (a calculator would do a fine job).
