anyone have a download of this still? both links are dead

working on joining also, was on the track when annikolnda was taking the test..my question is, do you only use the XRT?

bump

So i recently got a new computer and when i unlocked lfs it will not let me select the drag strip. everything else is accesible but that. any ideas whats wrong?

Quote from The Radness :

Generally if your on the gas you don't want to downshift.

You should have downshifted when you were on the brakes or off the gas, before your revs got that far down. It's all about timing.

yeah i know..it doesnt happen often but when it does its kinda annoying

Is there a way to have the GTR cars with sequential gearboxswhile on the gas? when im in too high of a gear i have to get off the gas in order to downshift.

for the most part..I geuss I ate my own words right there...but a little more of a pants in the seat feeling wouldnt hurt(maybe I just need a motion base)..still doesnt solve the turbo problem

Put the LX6 in reverse and go full throttle and see what happens. I know reverse is a high gear but as soon as the power band hits the tires will break loose. May not be with every car but shows the kind of feeling I was looking for.

yeah i geuss the tires are pretty well simulated..but that still doesnt change the fact that the engine doesnt really pull harder as it climbs..regardless of spinning the tires

what card should i upgrade to?? Is there a big difference between the 8000 series and 9000 series?

these are the specs of my new computer. Is this overkill? Its only going to be used for racing sims.

DHRammstein- that was my mustang..I sold it. Im in the process of saving for my 08GT500..but My friends dad has 5! count it 5 shelby mustangs in his garage. Including Eleanor. and my other friend has a 800hp 04 Cobra..there is a few others around but they dont compare to these..Im still a part of the mustang club of America..i just have to wait till i can get a used one for a decent price.

i understand what your saying with the temperature but in my own experience its a lot more fun and when you feel that torque start to kick in. and with a simulator(with no motion) its a lot harder to make that same feeling..given the tires differ greatly i just feel it will add a little more to the realism factor of the game..im not saying for it too do it all the time but maybe a first lap or with a street tire to drift or just have fun

sorry its a GT2..

stock turbo..dont think its stock boost though..its a 2007..give or take 450hp..but there isnt much to the interior

actully most of my interior was gutted..and like i said..the cobra has slicks and skinnies and is still lighting them up in 4th gear..my friends porsche GT3 has slicks that spin once the turbos kick in..a 490bhp stripped-out high-reving race car on slicks should have no problem spinning the tires espcially when cold..

Stock gearing. 275mm wide tires, and how is that not comparable?? My friends Cobra is faster then most of the cars in the game(except for the open wheelers) and he has full slicks and is spinning them still in 4th gear.

I didnt mean to refer to eery car but maybe the more powerful ones. I drive a 450hpGTO and when i wind out 2nd gear it will start to spin when the powerband hits. Maybe its an unfair comparison with some of the cars but I expect it from at least the GTR cars, and yes it also depends on tires but cold in the first lap should do it with enough power. And now that i think about it ive never gotten the tires to chirp into third. Maybe i dont shift fast enough but im just trying to add more realism.

the only time ive noticed the torque band in a NA engine is when my tires are popped. If you go full throttle they wont spin intill like 3500 rpm. They should be slipping even if they are brand new. At least with the GTR cars

I dont know if its just me but if im in like 2nd gear at low rpm and go full throttle it doesnt really seam to pull any harder as it climbs. I say this because in my real life car if i do the same thing it starts to peel out when the band hits(around 4000rpm) I notice a slight band in turbo cars but thats only when they hit full boost. Just my 2cents

"quee" Im pretty much unstoppable in COD4 so i stopped playing. Im on MLB08 right now(GoCubs!) but i throw on GT5 once in awhile.

those are the best ive heard...but it clips like crazy for me...how bad is that for the speakers??

Quote from _--NZ--_[HUN] :

I'm making some progress with GTR sounds. I'll probably upload the first version later today.

updated yet??? im about to d/l but ill wait for the GTR sounds

all that is, is a 4banger hitting the redliner...with the headers you can hear each cylinder...at least with long tubes

How many fps' are you guys running. I have got it to hit around a constant 60 playing with the settings. I have an old laptop so I dont expect much. But I was wondering what you guys with new computers are running?
