thats not the initial idea, but look at how many that play cruise. at least 1/3 of LFS'ers play cruise (not constantly :P) so that means it CAN be used to that as well
Thats the circle of life XD
I'm with you on that. only trusted players could be cops, and yes, a good mileage on the cars + training from players high up on the ladder of ranks.
Atlantian: Let's be realistic... animals?? that would mean new graphics, alter tracks and such... LFS developers would never go with that. and guns? go play GTA: san andreas or something
I guess that would be a little too much for LFS :P but if the players could walk freely, then mabye.
And for future reference: I do not wish to have GTA in LFS. No weapons and such... too complex, and VERY unfair towars different players.
Mabye a tutorial for beginners to help them through the start would be good
Well, this is the Live For Speed General Discussion. So this post is not wrongly placed. And LFS is not only about racing
If it was, why put in the "cruise" option on servers?Well considering a known server is interested in using it, i believe that it would be popular pretty quick...
And Yes, i'm here to drive :P but sometimes just racing gets boring, and I'm quite devoted to driving, cruising have a little more relaxed type of driving is nice...
Hmm, the most i could think of is (illegal) street races...
say what?
Role Play? (an Extreme cruise option?)
As for the newest patch, the LFS crew threw in the "cruise server" option (even though cruise servers have existed longer). This got me thinking... What if someone made an RP type server, more or less cruise, but with more options, like having a Job, special income (for jobs..), welfare income and so on? It would be more than regular cruising, and using special addons serverside, would spice the cruisers/RP'ers life up a bit.
SUGGESTIONS on what to have in a Addon:
-Jobs (As stated above, but within the jobs there would be different "ranks", so there is one manager, sub-manager and so on... higher the rank, higher the pay)
- Specialized cars (no, not tweaked ones :P but some cars are restricted to pepole with a specific job/rank. Say, a player is a high paid-high-ranked person, that can use cars like LX6, RAC and FZ5. A middle-class player can use FXO, RB4 and LX4, and low paid workers can use XRT, XRG and XFG. Pepole on Welfare can use the UF1000. (GTR class cars can only be used by pepole with a Racing-License.)
-Licences. (To qualify for a job, you need to prove that you can do it. for "desk jobs" this is not needed, but when you are a delivery boy, or even Car Tester, a Licence have to be issued for you to be able to do the job. The manager jobs should be the Admin(s) on the specific server, but can be given to TRUSTED players. the managers keep an eye when players try to get licences, so he does not speed, or drive incorrectly. For the "supercars" (Fz5 ETC), a licence also need to be issued, but only by a driving instuctor, watching how the player drives)
-police ( yes, as well as Cruise servers, i belive this need a cop solution. also trusted players. cadets can be as a tryout)
- Money income. ( i feel that car prices should be more like real life, but money income is larger. 20,000$ is a reasonable price for a XRT for example. staying within the speed limit gives most cash, 0$ when over 10 mph over.
-Layouts( layouts can be more or less similar to the exsiting cruise layouts, but if there is car testers, mabye a little track made for exactly that somewhere along the route?)
-Food Needs ( Why not have a food seller, that sells different foods for a price, and drivers need it, or their cars stop)
Come with input! Comments, or other thoughts
and if many is intrested, mabye a good soul out there wants to code it? im not a coder/addon maker myself, but i would like too see this come to life... Although ive seen some of these suggestions before, i think that with a little more development, this could work

well, first off, sorry :P I meant the new car in the latest patch
And the chicane route is in south city. (yes, also the new one from the patch).
and last, i upgraded to S2 quite a while ago, not weeks, but more half a year or something... (used to drift, but got more into racing later on)
Hazzy looking for a racing team
Yup, Hazzy is me, and i'm looking for a racing team that is established, and mature. My car of choise is the BFM, and have raced quite a while, all the way from demo a long time ago.
Favorite track is Chicane route, where i put a best (so far) on 1.07.6xx
(yeah, i know, it's not the best you've seen, but it keeps me on 5th and down on the servers i've raced on), but i could need a better setup...
Hope for a response
I'm out!

I'm out!Need construction skins
Hi y'all!
I need a couple of construction skins (That means that the car looks like its a company car within construction) for UF1000, FZ350*, XFO Turbo*,RB4*,LX4, LX6*
(Cars marked with * means that those cars are highest priority)
I was picturing for myself something Orange with company logo and black/yellow stripes.
A few pics for inspiration:
