Isn't it like that, if you get banned from enough servers in a short period of time you get perm banned from the whole lfs? o.0

Quote from NanG :if you want too talk about realism have you ever been in a real life race car? i have been in a lot of different types of cars some mildly moded others fully moded and none of them are limited that low

wikkepedia is generally unrealiable and untrustworthy but i know all about rev limiters. race cars have shift lights so that they know the best time too change for a proffesional this makes the rev limiter obsolete and a waste of weight (every gram helps)

I probobly been more close to cars than you. The thing is that a stock car as it is in this game has both low HP and low Torque. When they have that they dont have the power on the 7000rpm they have it on 4500-5000 rpm. And since you cant understand about the torque curv and that you never need to be up there since the car have lost power on the way there.


Then if you know ALL about rev limiters why do you over rev your own car? About thrustworthy, how do you know anything is thrustworthy on internet?



Imo i think you are a B12 that think that you can drift your dads stationwagon just becouse you can drift in lfs. -,-'

"A Rev limiter is a device fitted to an internal combustion engine to restrict its maximum rotational speed. This is usually carried out to prevent damage to the engine, however sometimes these devices are fitted to prevent an engine reaching the point at which it develops maximum power. This may be useful in a driving school car or similar, or utilised in systems preventing Valet parking operatives from joy-riding in high performance vehicles placed in their charge. When fitted to racing or modified street cars these adjustable devices provide more precise control than the original components built in by the manufacturer. Limiters can be used in conjunction with a shift light, which illuminates when the desired RPM is reached, indicating to the driver that a gear change is required. This allows the driver to keep his eye on the road and not have to glance repeatedly at the tachometer to monitor the engine speed."

Taken from wikipedia.

"Overspeed is a condition in which an engine is allowed or forced to turn beyond its design limit. The consequences of running an engine too fast varies by engine type and model and depends upon several factors, chief amongst them the duration of the overspeed and by the speed attained. With some engines even a momentary overspeed can result in greatly reduced engine life or even catastrophic engine failure. The speed of an engine is ordinarily measured in revolutions per minute (RPM)."

Taken also from wikipedia.

See my point?

My point is that older cars have less revs since they are not built for it. I dont know what cars you have ben driven but most cars have a tachometer to about 8k rpm. But they have the rev limiter at 6,5-7k rpm. And that is what lfs have to. But they havent changed the tachometer to the rev limit yet. Also you should never rev the engine on red anyways as a driver so.

I dont know how you prefer that 9k rev limit is real... but read on befor you try to tell ppl it is more real that way.

Quote from NanG :my parents 2006 stock toyota corolla can rev higher than the XRT Turbo now that is pathetic in my opinion

Their 2006 stock corolla is newer than the XRT. The XRT is build in game to be a early 90's car. There is also not mentioned that your car break down just becouse you rev high, but you lower your engines lifetime with years every time you rev over the actual revlimiter. The rev limiter is there on cars to tell you that its is enough. They are there to save your engine a few years of living.

what is pathetic is that you trying to do a nfs of lfs... -,-'

Quote from NanG :im not talking about accelerating at 11k revs im talking about being able too keep power at 7-8k. lol reving at 7-9k revs while going around a corner locking is called drifting my friend and no my engine is still fine. you need those high revs too keep long drifts

i have done 9k revs in my rx7 with out problems many times, engine is still sweet but rotaries are better than pistons.

First, When your car break down in a corner couse you overrev, is that is drift then you should read on a little bit about drifting. A good drifters dont need to rev at the rev limiter to hold a long drift. And if you need you have problems with your car. Your car has it power curve in a way so you should be able to keep it at the peak of that curv to hold your car. And i doubt the peak is at the rev limiter.

Secound, Why is a rotary better when they have a bad rep for maintence every 1000mile? Is it better to tur up your wallet every third month to get a full maintence over the car?

Third, LFS aint made for drifting, ppl drift in it but its a racing game. Its made to be equal in races. Being able to tune the stock car races would imp mean a very unbalanced game. So live with it that you cant tune the car. Also the rev limiter is low on most cars, but so is their power. Tell me one car in lfs that has over 400bhp except the open-wheelers.

Quote from NanG :
its only newer cars that have rev limiters and personally i wouldnt buy a car with them. im sure its not easy too adjust but it is usually easy too remove them (buy a new ECU pay for a tune done)

There you are wrong. Cars have been having rev limiters the last 20 years. I dont understand where you wanna come. Don't come and tell me those cars in game should not have a rev limiter couse if you wanna drive on 11k revs and still accel as fast as on 5k rev go to NFS or something. A car hase a torque-curve, that means it have a peak when it has most power then it goes down. Mostly 4,5-5k revs on the most stock cars. Therefore you have lost so much power at the rev limiter that its pointless being there. As soon as you know where the peak is you should gear-up just after it. And if you rev at the rev limiter on your RX-7 then bad for you when you are in the middle of a corner locking your tires since your motor just been totaled.

There will be a diffrent kind or Crashers then. The crashers that just puch you out in a corner so you hit the wall hard and they continue with the next one. so its a good ideah but still it will make bad things to.

Quote from Dooonster :How about a AE36??? that would be sooo cool in inital d colours to lol

You know its AE86?

Hachiroku = 86

Hachi = 8

Roku = 6

Well I don't wanna see more cars, I wanna see some way to tweak cars more. like some ways to tune the car.

But its up to the developers on how to do things. I dont think they listen so much in here... ^^,

i just hate volvo. In my town only people having a volvo is the people that are either having a family or if the car looks like that they are screwing around with every girl in the 15-16 year they can find... -,-

NO offence but if a volvo gets in to lfs i will quit playing... -.-

Most people dont like going from the old to the new. They are comfteble, safe even happy with the old. So they have hard to belive that something new can be better. I only criticise to get the new better than the old. I don't say my way is the best way. Or that do it that way can be better. I say that the bad things make it worse than the old patch. To say that a drifter (like myself) cant drift in this patch is bizarre. They cant drift couse they dont got the skillz.
Demo have to understand that LFS staff looses money in having such a good car as the XRT on demo. They drive that car there and is happy and then they stop drive. LFS staff looses money that way. Money that would have been given us s3 faster.

I might have wrong so correct me but, only thru skilled drivers can get something good out of something new.

Thats all from me.

Well LFS strobe works fine.

Also that the lights only flash is becouse its a racing simulator. you dont use your lights all the time in a race, often you use it to signal to the one infront that you want to pass or so.

When we dont got any night tracks the light is what I say useless. only time i use it is when im using strobes... and that is not often

Well this is the first time im writing for getting some help here so i hope I will be nicely answered.
Ive been hosting servers on both demo and s2 for a while and im quite familiar with lapper and LFSdedicated.
now to the problem,
For some reason on s2 when i load a layout it crashed the server for every one and i get hte error message "JOOS - OBJS". If i take the layout away it works fine.
I have tried to restart the server and so but i still cant get it to work.
any one that can help me?

I might be interessed. I have a server and I feel generous since im hosting other lfs servers. so why not.

Send me a pm or add me on msn; denniso@telia(dot)com
