then start the game
select the car
start the race
press the message-button ( usually T )
write /edit_eng and press enter
then press shift and a together at the same time
and voila - you should see the soundeditor
somewhere on the top of it you should see a load button, where you can load presaved engine-files

damn, i love the Sound of the 4AGE, it's so real... and i love the sound it makes when shifting down, it sounds just like in Initial D, when they wait for the father to come back home and then you hear that engine revving up twice, and the boys says "that's my dad, he always does that when leaving the highway" ... sooo aaaaaaaawesoooooome ^^

hope the RB26DETT is the same quality

Well, i don't need the handbrake that much, so i won't install any programm just for this one.

And by the way, that isn't the kind of solution i had in mind. I know, it's far away from being a serious problem, but on the other hand - it should be easy to programm LFS for using my ( and several other mice ) correctly.

So Devs - if you read that, you know what i expect for patch ... Z. Stage 3. At least

( Oh and, please excuse my english ( if there are any mistakes in it. If not, just ignore this one I try hard, but ... well ... blame my teacher ;P )

Hi there,

i just got a "Trust Predator GM-4200" with 6 buttons. But i've got the same problem like the threadstarter - LFS doesn't recognize any of the buttons except the ordinary first two, ( left and right one ). I'd like to use one of the other buttons for the handbrake, as i did before with my logitech iFeel Mouseman, so is there any way? I know, I could bind a keyboard-key to one of the mousebuttons, but then i would loose the forward/backward function of that button. AND: other games ( like Far Cry, Prince of Persia etc. ) DO recognize the other buttons and let me use them, so I'd "loose" a usable button in other games ( or would have to switch that binding of the button all the time ).
Is'nt there any way to let LFS use the other buttons? Can't the devs buy such a mouse themselves and then test it and do the necessary programming?

thanks for any comments and/or help

Hi everybody, and Hi Victor
I don't have time to read the whole thread, so please forgive me if that's been asked before, but: what will happen with the music now? Victor made all the songs as far as i know, and although "feel the silence" and some others are unbeatable, i still wanted to get more and more new songs I know, it's a racing sim and real racers don't listen to music while they race, but i really enjoyed Victor's songs during the replays or AI training-sessions and without LFS, just listening to them while writing mails, surfing the net or driving around in my car.

So, will there be new songs coming from Victor? He says he wanted creative work, and creating a song is ...well ... creative work, i guess. Right?

But whatever you'll do, Victor - good luck and have fun!
