Quote from Eclipsed :

It's well known,that AIs in LFS are...ehm,how to better say it delicatly...stupid! It's even fun to let them in bunch on some rather dangerous track and watch them crash each other.
But seems like improving AI is rather low in Scawen's priority list,especially with the neverending story of new tyre physics developement.

New tyre pshysics is like, far too much of a joke within the community, but true, the AI's are actually fairly incompetent at their job, since it doesn't actually test for online racing (Unless your doing a no-rules race obviously) but its annoying since they worked well for the previous 40 laps, then on lap 41/41 last corner I got killed from 1st place, which is kinda a pain.

So I was having a fun time in singleplayer with AI's (On professional) and going into a turn I broke using my usual line (Early then accel through the corner) but that was put to a halt when I was read-ended by an AI which caused a huge accident which in any normal race would be a straight disqualification and red-flag.

What I believe should be done is that AI's should have better reactions, since theirs is worse than mine (And mine are horrid)

Like. Everything I seem to find is people who look down on demo users (And a small bunch look down on s1 too. Along with the thread "Limit demo use" that kinda broke the XF GTI steeringrack for me)

Why is the lfs community so elitist? It's the only thing putting me off upgrading.

There's a small reason to why GTS and Open wheels use slicks.

when tyre physics are released

HOW LONG MUST WE WAIT.


Answer: By the looks of things an estimation of 35 years would be quite accurate.

Quote from Whiskey :

Number 1 is already possible, but it have to be implemented server side. I don't know if anyone have programmed it yet on a public server.

Yeah. I find it a shame it's only server-side.

So right now car reset flops you back on your wheels in a fully repaired car. I reckon there should be some settings for this.

E.G

1. A setting to allow a car reset BUT NO REPAIR UPON RESET (EG if a car has flipped this setting will allow them to be put back on their wheels)
   
2. A car reset back to the pits on their current lap BUT they have to wait for the repairs on the car to finish (As in the same way a pitstop works)
   

*Comment about demo license*

Now people wont have to :>

NOW I KNOW THIS HAS BEEN A MOD. BUT IT DOESN'T WORK WITH LFS NOW SO PLEASE DO NOT BIND IN THE MARSH

But the reason I think it'd be good because it'll add immersion to the game, now since we have steering wheel and hands and full driver in 1st person (If we want) I think having it wouldn't be too hard to implement, could make it an option like driver/steering wheel is, Maybe if this gets added people could make their own helmets view-able in it (Like how people make interiors) . (Now I'm expecting the "Wear a helmet in real life" I sit next to a window so no)

+1 (I'd say +100 but I can only give one)

In my honest opinion this is the s1/s2/s3 community being elitist. As I said in my previous statement "What happens if you don't play enough to warrant buying a s2 license?"

In the world of cracked. They still miss out on features like MULTIPLAYER which if you don't get what the point of this part is MULTIPLAYER is where lfs EXCELS. Leagues to race in. Servers and insim to play around with.
In cracked you can only use LAN (Which is usually very unstable)

Remember though. Demo users are potential upgraders too. Limiting their experience could bring the illusion of the devs being "Money hungry" or in gamer terms "EA"

It should not be limited. I hardly play the game. I just enjoy making skins and rendering them.

So I want to throw a question at any licensed users; What would you do if they limited insim? Saying that if you have s1/s2 you could only use it for a limited time before it was cut off. Then you must upgrade (Where £12 for an oval is a bit steep even if it has one billion layouts) or you have to pay for it by day/hour? That'd cause such an uproar and probably binding in the marsh and riots. The same as what MIGHT happen if this idea gets passed.

So rally cars; Maybe 3.

Maybe even two or three rally maps (Like 3 different surface types with different driving styles eg: Dirt/Mud - Sand - Snow) like autocross along with map items to make a range of unlimited possibilities (As shown by autocross)

Yaynewthings.

+.5

This would have its positives and negatives to it.

IMO: This is a good idea - Though how would something like this be done? Would it be like same cars per race or classes? (EG: Fxo V RB4 or XRG VS XFG ect ect) If there was more car customization I'd be giving it a big thumb up.

If the names were randomized along with numberplates and team names. Specific for each different car/class (Maybe 16 a race with 42 drivers for mix) Each with their own TEAM (2-4 drivers) and skin (With or without number) it'd be a good immersive career

Currency too: Would cars be too expensive that you have to spend years of your life battling for a xrt/rb4 (Like I do on cruise servers :/ ) Or would they be too cheap that its 4 races in each car then your vooming past the opposition in a bf1.

Plus how would this work for demo and s1 users? Would they get half way through and then the game goes "That's yer lot matey"

It'd feel a bit off however due to ai's not having skins by default (YES I KNOW YOU CAN ENABLE 'Use player colors')



And would the "Quick race" ability be lost?

So to get on lfs.net and lfsworld I have to use a VPN - This is the same for any wiki's too. If you're in the UK and your on PlusNet configure safeguard if you haven't already for the reason of IT WILL BLOCK LFS.NET AND THE UPDATE SERVERS UNDER CATEGORY PN_Gaming The reason I'm warning people about this is because I was making my 3d render showroom (Which you should go check out ;3 ) And the second I clicked submit the Plusnet PN_Gaming screen showed up.

This PlusNet safeguard also blocked off Imgur and some YouTube channels. As well as IGN and sites along those lines

(One good thing it did was block metacritic)

Now I know some people who play are young and if they're on PlusNet the parents might not give the account password. In this instance I'd actually recommend a VPN.

Quote from VolksTurbo :

It does not work :/

I don't think it's worked for quite a long while

Aw thanks. I personally suffer from the thing where I instantly hate my work.

I now taught myself
I reckon I'm doing well don't you?: https://www.lfs.net/forum/thread/89288-Lyen%27s-showroom

Taking render requests; Drop me a pm ~

ALSO MY RENDERS WILL HAVE CLEAR BACK ROUND. THOUGH LFS FOURM WILL SHOW THESE UP AS WHITE.
Notes: Most of my skins are for teams or those I fancy making.
I'm bad at rendering.
I use blender
I have the attention span of a 4 year old in a room of shiny things
I can only get better right?

Anyway!

Black Dragon Racing:

FZ5:

Notes: This was my first ever render. For a first its not too bad right?

XRT:

Notes: I was a little PROUD of this one. I taught myself how camera's work. Finally now I can look at doing dramalike things.

RANDOM THINGS:

These are random things I decided to use and do. These will contain skins I found on lfs forum. I mainly do these so I can practice rendering.

Miku FXR:

Front

Back:

Notes: I was working on backdrops and studio lighting with this one.


Remember comments are ENCOURAGED
Side note: I might render a skin for you.

I'm using blender cause I'm cheap :> but my best right now is:
