First off, first post in probably a year, been waaayyy too long. I want to apologize in advance for any stupidity for I am out of the loop horribly and I am probably asking questions that have been answered already on the forum, I searched but didnt find anything.
Now, I put down my G25 a good while ago because it was acting very funny; smelling bad, making noise, grinding gears, the lot. I just got an Xbox and GT5 for my playstation, along with internet, so you can imagine I am on a gaming rampage once again. Long story short I tried to start up LFS off the Logitech thingy and it wont recognize the wheel. I can start up LFS directly and use the pedals and shifter just fine, but I cant do anything with the wheel.
I done some research sometime this month and found the thread where someone mentioned where to find the exact motors that came stock and I also found a step-by-step guide on how to tear the wheel apart.
I tore it apart and everything looks okay except for the gear mechanisms. The set that is on the steering shaft is chewed up all the way around it and the set that slides back and forth is pretty chewed up too. If I was to replace both motors would the gears become a problem? I recall the last times I used the wheel it would always slip and the force feedback would not work properly, so I would think that they would just slip if I got fresh motors in there.
Sorry for the huge post but I hate not explaining myself.
Thanks in advance
EDIT: I will try to post pics but I doubt they will be high enough quality to help.

A new NASCAR season is slowly approaching, and with it, new paint schemes. I give you:

2009 Jeff Gordon:

You are very brave my friend. If I was to post a Nascar skin, much less a Jeff Gordon one, there would be a whole page of burning bananas.
Great skin btw

Sorry to be a complete idiot but now I have video and no sound

I can only get sound out of these, no video shows

This has REALLY sparked my curiousity

Quote from JazzOn :

sorry i`ve forgot about it but i now did it like promised ^^

I made a complete new skin because your original was quite low-res, but i used yours as an example of course

The side flames are completly done by me and therefor not perfect. My first flames

You are my hero! The flames are AWESOME!
Thank you very very much

Quote from JazzOn :

post your skin withthe flames and i`ll try to fix it. If i would do it it wouldnt be "your" skin anymore

Here's my hideous attempt

Anybody?

I have recently decided I need to make some of my own skins instead of using ones others have made. I decided to do a UFR skin for the simple reason of the car is just downright sexy.
So I get this crazy notion to do a Nascar-style skin (don't flame with the left turn attack) and it started off pretty well. Then I decided I would try a flame job, but I can't get it to line up from the hood to the fenders and I think the skin will look really good if done right.
So if anybody thinks they can do it they can let er rip and work some magic

I want the flames to completely cover the front like in the picture but I don't want it to come out of the side like it does in the picture. I think the best color for the flames would be solid white but it's all up to whoever takes this on.
My name is over the door but I think that can be easily removed, so if you want to use it and start something completely different that's fine, i'm all for it.
Sorry for the huge post but I don't want to forget something and start a spam-filled and flaming thread because I didn't describe what I wanted completely
Good Luck!

Excuse my lack of knowledge and O/T
EDIT: I just looked and I found it, I should really learn to shut my mouth sometimes

Great skins everybody!
I would LOVE to have the Eleanor skin too along with any other Mustang or musclecar skin, if anybody knows of any
Thanks all

+1 from me
I think it would be a good idea only if we had dedicated pit stalls, but the complication with that would be that short 5-10 lap servers would have to redesignate stalls for every race

AHA I just got an idea (a somewhat scary thought )
It could be like an option like car reset and mandatory pit stops are. That way if you had like a league or something to that nature where it's the same racers they could have a designated spot for them and if it was a casual for-fun race they can be first come first serve

we sold our teamtruck...to give in good hands....8balls Racers are the new owners......

That RB4 (RBR I suppose) is just absolutely BEAUTIFUL:jawdrop:
Good render BTW

Quote from maxiim :

Here you go dude.

Thanks! Looks great!

Quote from jensbrix :

Arh, i don't know how to do this, can someone please help? I have opened the blend file with the cars, and now i'm going to load my skin, but i don't know how to do it, and i can't open the pictures in this guide :S
Please help

Follow the tutorial and you'll figure it out

I use the gated shifter on all of the cars that have the H-pattern gearboxes. If you practice on your timing you can be just as fast as somebody who uses the sequential shifter. Especially before turns as you can downshift two gears instead of one

I just downloaded Y to Z and it fixed all of my problems
Thanks guys

I have a little problem with a few of the cars. It seems the interior is misaligned. I don't know if it's a bug or I just have to get new dds files

Quote from maxiim :

Thx But do you use belender?

Yes

Something to kill some time with

Quote from maxiim :

Hello Maybe someone want to render my new skin?

I'm on it
BTW you can remove skin so nobody steals it

EDIT: Done!
But there is a small error in it. I'll look into it more tomorrow, as it's two in the morning here.

Search for Bogey Jammer's Ready-to-Render kit on this forum. All the stuff you need is in there

Here's my personal set

I have one similar

Quote from Skin_king :

how can the XRT headlights pop up??

It is nothing in-game.
It is done in a render which has NOTHING to do with gameplay
BTW quit posting in multiple threads, this is the second time I've answered you
