Aston Historic, the Eau Rouge at the end of sector 1.

Looks to me like this section of Aston... I don't know why people think that is the Eau Rouge area :zombie:

I bet 5 posts from my postcount that we'll see the new config today!

Rules:
You may place an equal bid on a different feature or bet 25 (5^2) posts that this feature doesn't come. In the first case the winner gets all posts that were bid on a different feature, in the second case I get your 25 posts when the aston config comes, and you get my 5 posts when it doesn't.
Hurry, only ~5 hours left!

I think I have too much time to make up useless things like this. Anyway, this is a nice way to sort the "I think this comes"-posts.

Vain

5 posts we'll get the new tyre physics feature

Ah yes, right you are. Haven't driven on Historic/GP enough to remember that

damn, great great work.
ah scawen, remember the 6 dof support for trackir!!
please

i hope this is no april fools joke.
I think the patch will come near the 22nd

Morning Sports Fans. What time is our today's update due

Spot the difference in those last two screenshots? Barriers have changed...

I'm at work, and have set a firefox window refreshing lfs.net every 5 seconds, just in case it gets earlier again today! Could be a real interesting update today, maybe even one we haven't heard of already!

Wonder what the surprise feature will be?!

yes, in the fox pic there is a new blue barrier!

We need a alert system to tell use when it will release

OMG BLUE BARRIERS ARE MY FAVOURITE COLOUR OF BARRIERS! THANK YOU ERIC! :bowdown:

Maybe now if you hit a barrier your car doesn't fly... who knows..

Quote from joshdifabio :

Look carefully, the bars have infact been flattened, they aren't round anymore. Still not attached to the fox properly though although they do seem to be mounted on the fo8 now.

They still look a lot narrower, even if they have been flattened. I wonder if this is some sort of visual indicator of the suspension being weaker post-patch. I hope so.

Ohhhh....satire, love it (BTW you forgot !!!!!1111111 OMG U R TEH BOMB)

Dan,

I wonder if there will be another physics push before S2 Final... Scawen?

I know that the tyres and aerodynamics are much revised in the patch... just wondering about undertray, as colcob suggested, and also drivetrain (if it hasn't been adressed in the patch). Better engine modelling would be awesome. The clutch pack LSD needs preload, stalling needs to be included and better clutch physics would be nice... Also torsen differentials. Extra grip on the racing line?... would be nice. Asymetric suspension setups and seperate slow and fast damping on race cars... Brake fade... Anyway, that doesn't sound like more than three or four months work to me (excluding the engine modelling - that would take longer probably) and I believe that the most important/tricky to get right physics will be very much improved with the patch. The ones I listed above would just perfect dry weather physics. I am by no means stearing a gift horse in the teeth, just wondering about the future. Anything over and above tyre physics, aerodynamics improvements and improved 3D models and textures would come as a surprise to me. I'm expecting the patch to completely blow me away to be honest.

I wonder nobody wonders about the second screeshot?!
Do someone know which corner of Westhill (must be Westhill; look at the curbs) it is?

That whole post sounds a bit cheeky to me but I suppose you are 'just wondering'

Lol axus, just list everything while you're at it.

I wonder is the aero will be made individual for the GTR cars, since atm the FXR can't use more than 6 degrees worth of rear wing and the XRR isn't much better (7 or 8?).

Updated!!!

day 3 (Thursday 13th April)

Single seater dashboards :
Just a small graphical enhancement to show you today. Tyre and aero physics have been improved a lot recently. The slipstreaming improvements will make the single seater racing cars even more popular. So we spent a few hours making a special dashboard for the Formula XR and Formula V8.

Haha. Small fry.

Oh well...graphics were ok for me already. Fingers crossed for more important things. They look very nice, though

nice

I love those dashboards Awesome. Wish the GTR:s had them too. More surprises! More! Mooore!!
