Quote from Wm. Peddle :

What I think happens is this, good young waves of gamers keep moving toward the new. The true drivers among them will come back to LFS.
Because it Rocks Worldwide!

+1.

[OFFTOPIC]I've been with LFS since just before the release of S1, And sure i've had my breaks (not because I'm annoyed with slow patches, I don't really care if its updated or not, It's a great game right now and considering I havn't had to pay anything for the past 3 years with a huge amount of improvements since then, I'm bloody happy with it) but in the end, I've always come back to LFS because of how realistic the cars handle, and the good feeling every time you shave .10 off your pb.

And I can honestly say that since I started playing LFS, I have not put as much time into any other racing sim (I don't even play any others), And yes, I have played iRacing, Yes it's an awesome racing experience, I only had the oval pack but every race was very close (and thats with 30 drivers).[/OFFTOPIC]

Back on topic, Well as you can see I'm australian, and I don't like racing in american servers because of the lag issues, So there is pretty much only one racing server for us (Which is ProRacingRoom, Great people race here, there's even a TS server where the host himself is always on + many people racing at the time), So quit complaining you only have 5 or 6 servers. Us aussies have 1. Deal with it.

Quote from March Hare :

Nope. You are not resurrecting it but are sure as hell keeping it alive.

I was just quoting your post to demostrate that this thread had been resurrected before and that your comment was applicable to this resurrection too. Clearly you missed that, dude.

Maybe I should start adding detailed explanations about what I mean to my posts so that everyone, regardless of their intellectual level, will understand them.

Contributing:

Just for the record, I knew exactly what you mean't when you quoted his post, You were only quoting BMW at the time because he had posted the image some months earlier, When it was first bumped. In no way were you accusing BMW of bumping it.. lol.


Heh, What? I was bored and wanted to post something.

Hey guys, It has come to my attention that its not possible to contact these server admins, If anyone has a link to their lfs forums profiles that would be great as alot of people are breaking the rules and need to be reported.


Don't flame me, Im not a cruiser, simply a watcher.

I noticed a bug when skinning, Im not sure if this is test patch related but its still a bug.

When you save a skin as xxx.jpg.jpg you can see it in the pits, but not ingame. Just a little thing but sometimes photoshop does that =/

Solution :
Either dont show skins with .jpg.jpg ingame
or ???

Quote from MadCat360 :

I'm using whatever version is on the demo download page. I haven't installed any special stuff.

Thankfully I won't be a keyboard user much longer. My Fanatec 911 is on order!

Thanks for the help guys.

what the f is that?


Looks like a err, new one?

Couple tips for your next wheel:
1. Plastic pedals dont last =/ (They look plastic)
2. That accelerator pedal is going to annoy you i think
3. From the pic it looks like the gear stick is extendable from the wheel?
4. Buy a G25


EDIT:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-dWjLRhd8w0 <-- comparison.

I noticed something in the vid tho, when he plays lfs with the fanatec wheel, you can see the ingame wheel jumping about (its not smooth), whats up with that? also the accelerator seems to have a deadzone =/



EDIT2: Topic hijax plx?

I think in between the 1st and 2nd arrow as it's slower (what i've read) as the FXO, XRT and RB4 and -(i think) that makes it- way slower than the LX4/6, RAC and FZ5. So, I think it'll belong with the XFG and XRG

Just a wild guess anyway

Really? As slow as the XRG and XFG? thats just boring =/ ( im just excited about the interior, i hope its all digital like those new battery cars or w/e lol )

woo, a topic i made is popular lol, Probably because the forum cuts it to "Where is the scirocco..." on the main page lol...

Ya to those people who think it will be in the same spot as in Z12, I really doubt it, Simple cause it looks 'thrown in' and has no real class (unless its faster then the bf1? ).

I dont think it will go there :P It looks a little out of place.

Please dont spam this thread, its sort of a little joke :P

From the picture below, try to guess where they will put the VW




EDIT: Just noticed something, The top two rows have no skins, The bottom two do =/

Quote from deiwisxxx :

Don't think so, its the way you drive. im playing LFS for 3 years and i have done 5000laps in BL2 and my pb is 1:08.98 and the best is 1:07.89 and i use same setup as all other people. Need to learn how to take the corners

This is exactly the reason you should make your own setups.

Quote from chanoman315 :

You sir, Should be shot for having that in your sig

Quote from Bose321 :

hm okay. Re-count them. there are really 7 posts in a row.

Sssshhhh, He's only now learning to count.

Quote from CrAbStEr DrIfTeR :

well it is turning out better than i thought - i ran it last night at about 11:30pm and ended up staying on until 5 this morning due to the amount of people coming to learn. I suppose the layout i made with the cone dohnutting, figure of 8 and track was a bit too small so tonight i will make a new one...

glad there is some interest

I R BE THAR.


Edit: To everyone in GMT+10. It will be on THURSDAY the 8th at 4am. (And will always be at this time)

Quote from Tonttula :

Hi brandons48.

I think what youre doing wrong is you are responding too late on the second corner on both replays and i think you should try starting the drift more earlier. I hope this helps you.

Off-topic:
In your avatar.. Is that a mod? (For the lights), If so, Where can i get it?

On-topic:
Check my attachment..

In my opinion its your setup.

Less front camber and rear pressure.

Welcome, Although I don't expect to see you racing here in the aus servers .
We need faster broadband in the world.

Well, It is now 12:10AM on the 25th Of December here in Australia.

So i guess i'll say MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Quote from Blakey. :

Lol, well, i went online, first race was fine, second race, i got rammed so hard it flipped my car, and then some french idiot decided it would be epic to voteban me, so i left.. pfft

Dont worry about it mate, Soon you will find a bunch of people to race with who actually know how to race :P If that makes sense.

These days i only race in one server myself (ProRacingRoom, It one of the few australian servers) simply because its real racing. Not some bs bumper car round.

Quote from EmilO :

Welcome to LFS! Now say goodbye to your social life..



Joking :P

Now now EmilO, Dont lie to the poor guy,


He's gonna lose it eventually.

Quote from Degats :

I assume they were made obsolete because of the OOS bug - one person with the wrong setup running Z4/5 could force several others to loose connection to the server at the same time. As this bug was fixed in a later version, it makes sense to make the old ones incompatible.
A lack of ABS in the XFG is unlikely to be the reason - you can't post hotlaps in the test versions anyway.

This is the response I was looking for. Thanks for clearing that up.

@Scawen: Would it be possible to add next to the Z4/5 info that they are obsolete? Just to avoid confusion.

Quote from JasonJ :

Seeing that you said that you were using Z4 client, I think he made a valid comment. The Z4 client is has now been made obselete, it had bugs and also had ABS in the XFG, it was made obsoloete on purpose.

All the Z dedi servers are still compatible, it's the client Z4,5 that was made incompatible.

Hope you understand what I mean.

No, You didn't make a valid comment.

How do you get its become obsolete, Z4 was compatible with a Z host.

So, if you cant work it out, Z host had no ABS, while Z4 had abs on cars, So there would be no reason why Z4 would not be compatible with Z8.

Like i said, Think before you post.
