Got still the problem of the onboard views. The cam will only show the frontview. Incar and rear view are not working yet. Tried all fixes in the cvw.ini with the cam folders i.e. copy and rename. Still used the search in this board but no idea what the problem really is.

Any suggestions, how the onboard cams will work properly with Z28?

Especially an working TV Director folder with all the correct stuff in it for me as a download would be great! Got a broadcasting tonight and i´ve never expect such a problem.

Thanks and kindest regards for helping me out!

A little bit disappointing. Some of the accepted teams didn´t show up in the test race either in the iRC or handling the rules as mentioned before.

But we will accept this decision by the admins! Thank you for the test race (was still a good expirience for me to drive this mode of racing like i organized the SHAC events in Germany 2007) and good luck to all competing teams.

We are also retiring definitly from the waiting list.

Thanks for that service! Great stuff!

Hello, my name is Mika Radmer. I am the Head Admin of the GameStar League (GSL). We will give our answers to the following questions as good as i can in english because i know its sometimes strange to understand ! Thanks for your ideas in supporting leagues and the LFS News website (and the new anti-cutting-option)!

Q: Do you want this new centralised league news section?
A: We are still interested in centralised league news section, because sponsors and drivers want to notice and read informations in different languages for their public relations.

Q: How can I make things as easy as possible for you to post your league race results and news? (keep in mind the details I'd like to see in news items, as explained above)
A: Fill-out-format and .csv (excel) uploads. Maybe an option to bring up race-announcers in jpg. or different fileformats.

Q: Are there any methods of automation that you would prefer? Manual news submission will be possible as well of course, but I want to help you make your life easier by not having to manually post news in multiple places. I could for example grab all the news details via rss / xml if you can provide that. I hope we can find out if this is feasible for enough leagues - is this technically viable for you?
A: The RSS-Option is quite the best option, but we would like to edit it sometimes to bring it more visible. But for that fact it is ok, so we can easily share our news with your site.

Q: Do you have self written software to run your league website or do you use a downloaded package to create websites with?
A: We use the Wordpress-Applications and a handmade excel-sheet to manage the scores and standings. For the stats we use the LFS-Stats-tool.

Q: Do you have the knowledge to create any news submission automation?
A: No. Sorry...


We hope it would help you!

We made the hotlapping to equalize the grids GT-A and GT-B and reduce the competitors number down to 60, who will drive 4 races to have a short ranking. The top 15 of each grid will head up to the premier league, the rest comes into the First Division.

Quote from CarstenH :

arent there any news for international drivers here?
It`s a pity

Where is your problem? You are german?

Visit http://gsl.teamsport-online.com for further informations. Rules coming soon. If there are any problems please mail GSL[at]teamsport-online.com, i will answer asap!

Quote from Victor :

Moving this thread to the Leagues section.

Having special events posted in the main section is fine with me, but recruitment should happen in the Leagues section

Sorry for that and thanks for the move

Update first posting: Race schedules!

The GSL is open for all countries!! Everyone is welcome! Free for all. But keep in mind that we start on 18.30 UTC. Rules will also be in english language (but not translated by me *gg*)

Today we will announce the schedules and the qualification track for the time measurement. Updates will follow in the posting above.

Gentlemen, start your engines!






Racing simulation “Live for Speed” brings motor sports to the GameStar league

Following a large scale restructuring of the famous GameStar league, the pool of games has been graced with Live for Speed for the first time. Within the season of 2008 there will be weekly broadcasts every Thursday evening, bringing high-class racing into the homes of drivers and spectators. Get the live feeling.

The 30 drivers runs at high speeds, like a giant colourful snake, through the chicane directly at the hairpin turn. Some meters before it, a driver unreeves from the nearly endless column, trying to bend around the man in front of him while slowing down. Only centimetres separate the doors of the rivals as they dash through the small curve, ending with the successful completion of the passing maneuver. Yet, the victory in the turn is answered viciously in the subsequent straight. The combatant uses the slip stream to start yet another attempt to pass his opponent. Looking back in their side mirrors they try to obtain the better position for the following curve. Will the tires last though these extraordinary expenses?


There is hustle and bustle in the pit of the driver as tires are rolled to their destined positions and percussion drills are prepared for their assignment. Everything has to go fast when the driver runs in for his last pit stop. The adversaries arrive nearly identically. The duel of the pit crews begins. The car-jack groans as fast tires are slipped on for a short sprint for the last time. Small traces of the fights are poorly eliminated. A splash of gasoline is added to the tank. Being back on track before the rivalry is the ambitious goal here. Both crews act almost synchronous and eventually the battle is taken back to the track.


The final lap has been signalled and the tension is sensible. Concentrate! This is where it counts. Don’t let yourself be thrust aside from your virtually certain ranking last-second. Every conceivable shortcoming will be utilized mercilessly. It’s an adrenalin rush until the finish line. A short gaze into the rear-view mirror. Where is the oponent? The adversary starts a surprise attack from the slip stream. The opening of the last act, the last fight for the final standings has begun. Driving at the edge has worn the rival out. Yet, there is a gap. The space is beginning to melt. Both drivers speed towards the finishing line, pushing their throttle nearly through the floor of the cars. As the checkered flag is swayed, the winning margin has dissolved to mere milliseconds. The rival has failed at the blink of an eye, unbelievably scarce.


This is no hypothetical scenario of a thrilling race for a driver of the racing simulation “Live for Speed (LFS)”. It’s almost normal – everyday life in the car racing world. These exciting races will enter the new, twelfth season of the GameStar league 2008 and reach drivers as well as spectators. From the first day, drivers have to show that they have brought their training on the courses to near perfection, because the competition is vigorous under numerous drivers who all strive to win. Not only must one know the circuits to reach the top. The right setup of the racing cars with their spoilers, air vents and activity values, reminds of the real german DTM or the british BTCC. These setups could define worthy hundredth for the participants. And if that wasn’t enough, drivers require setting up their driving style tactically if a pit-stop has to be planed. Quite often races have been decided in the pit because the pit-stop was done extremely fast or it was the exact right time. A driver that has done his homework in all this areas precisely and meticulously will have the chance for the grand price:

The champions title in the GSL premier league 2008!


Procedure of the GameStar-league season 2008 – Live for Speed

• Online-Hotlap – Time measurement (01.02. – 08.02.2008)
  
• GSL Premier-League – Qualifying session (16.02. – 02.03.2008)
  
• GSL Premier League Season (11.03. - 11.2008)
  
• GSL First Divison Season (18.03. - 11.2008)
  
  
  

• Online-Hotlap – Time Measurement
  All candidates for the qualifying session for the GSL Premier League can do their hotlap between February 1st to February the 8th on our official GSL LFS server. The hot lap mode will be implemented as a tracker ranking, allowing each driver to drive indefinite laps. The best round will be rated and listed. Due to this list the 60 best drivers will be allowed to participate in the adjacent GSL Premier League qualifiers.
  
  
  
• GSL Premier League – Qualifying session
  The 60 top drivers from the hot lap time measurement will then be split into two groups by 30 drivers each, the GT-A and GT-B. Drivers with an even tracker position will get into GT-A while all uneven drivers from the tracking will be put in GT-B. Four races will be held between the 16th of February and the 2nd of March. Drivers will race for points that will be added up in a ranking system. The top 15 drivers of both GT-A and GT-B after four races will ascend to the GSL Premier League while the remaining drivers will accumulate in the GSL First Division.
  
  
  
• GSL Premier League
  The 30 drivers of the GSL Premier League will attend 10 races between the 11th of March up until November 2008 in a two-week ratio. Summer recess and possible holidays have already been taken into account. The league starts with vehicles from the GT-class 1 (FZR, FXR, XRR). Engine power restrictions will not be implemented. This vehicle class is also known as GT-1. Every driver chooses a car at the beginning of the season that may not be changed afterwards. An appearance fee will be given to the drivers on the first race. Additionally, the top four drivers of a race will receive price money hierarchically that will be collected on their price money account. Every driver participating in at least 8 of the 10 races will receive their money at the end of the season. The seasons top four driver will receive additional one-time payment graded by their standings.
  Every race of the GSL Premier League will be broadcasted exclusively by Game-TV
  
  

• GSL First Division
  The 30 drivers of the GSL First Division start the 2008 season one week apart on the 18th of March and ending on the 30th of November 2008. They have to complete 10 races as well that are held every two weeks. Summer recess and possible holidays have already been taken into account. The GSL First Division features vehicles from the GT-class 2 (FZR², FXR², XRR²). A reduced output is applied unlike the GT-1 of the GSL Premier League. This is done by applying air restrictors and additional weights.
  The GSL First Division is the first league situated directly under the GSL Premier League. The four best drivers at the end of the season will ascend to the GSL Premier League while drivers placing 5th to 15th will automatically be allowed to start in the GSL Premier Qualification 2009. As a requirement, these drivers must have completed 8 of 10 races in the secluded season. Price money and one-time appearance fees will not be paid. The four best driver of the season will receive non-cash prices.

Our cutting team is right on it. Uploads of the complete cuts (more than 8 GB were recorded during the show) took too long, but was finished yet.
Maybe we get the first Streampics at/after the weekend. Stay tuned!

Here is a 10 mins rawcut (sorry for the poor quality):

Quote from Vykos69 :

mika, read my last sentence and go to bed all good

I read it. But my opinion stays same. But never mind. The sweepstake is it worth. More than around 300 mails come in and we let the sweepstake run until next week.

Special note: tomorrow a 20 minute trailer about the highlights will be released in the video-on-demand-sector.

Tell me one reason for adverts of the ESL inside a MoE Event? They do nothing.... so i delete them. If you dont like, no problem. Dont install it. The broadcasting is not sponsored by BMW, anyway....

Quote from DeadWolfBones :

I would guess that he'll probably be using LFS TV Director, but who knows.

Correct, i am using the TV Director by Soeren Scharf.

Because of the upcoming show on saturday i have updated my LFS with new trackside adverts and walls. With several new designs the track looks more realistic and based more on the MoE. So if you like it, feel free to use it!

So you wanna take a look? Here are four little pics and the link for downloading the .dds files. It its crunched in RAR.
