Well I just came back from a 3 year absence into LFS and I must say If this software wants to be called a SIMULATOR I think the devs need to get on the stick and improve the timing.

Its not just inconvienient to be consistant and have a lot of times the SAME lap time but its needed. Look at formula1 they are talking about going to .xxxx digits due to much closer performance between cars.

Comon DEV'S please show us you agree and update our favorite SIM to .xxx timing capability.

Nice to se al went well

And BTW Rob auto gears zijn voor watjes

En dacht ik dat WATJES voor OREN waren

Quote from Zen321 :

In the options, when you choose shifter or sequential or paddle has got nothing to do with the actual transmission of the car
For example, a 6 speed shifter (like in the G25 or fanatec) won't work with the FXR (well it will work, but only to go up one gear or down one gear, you can move it directly from 5th to 3rd for instance).
In the options you set up your controller, in the setup your set up your car

Yep Thx Zen was aware of all that

What he said......and the whole point of the game, you know LFS - Racing Simulator.

Auto clutch gives you an automatic clutch, NOT, automatic gears.

heheheh yep thank god for autoclutch and not auto gears !!!!

Ok I guess i will just have to live with this situation, thanx everyone answering my questions, you guys are a great group.

Quote from J@tko :

That is normal for a sequential gearbox - it won't let you downshift with an open throttle

OK fine u say it is like that in real life with a SEQUENTIAL box, ok i can accept that/
but when i change to the SHIFTER option AND i have the AUTO CLUTCH set to [yes], then the operation of the gearbox clutch combination should revert back to NORMAL, as in non sequential box, operation, correct???

Well it does NOT!!!

Quote from J@tko :

Yes, it's a feature not a bug.

The sequential Gearbox lets you flatshift up, but you can't have any throttle [well, a tiny bit] to shift down

Ok if that is a feature i think it should be selectable a feature is not worth beans if the program FORCES u to use it, it its not a feature if u cant choose to turn it off, if you desire to do so.

OK its a feature, then why does the sim not revert to the normal way of functioning when u use the SHIFTER option???

Thx

Quote from S14 DRIFT :

Does LFS let you change down if it'll overrev the engine or something?

I'd suggest resetting all of your controls, we binding and trying again. Let me know if that solves it

I dont understand what you mean with 'we binding', so dont understand what you want me to do. Could you be more specific as to which action you want me to perform??? THX

Also some of you asked which car I am driving its the FXO GTR

Thx everybody for your response sofar.

LFS wont downshift to a lower gear, when I have my throttle either partially depressed or full throttle.
Upshifting with full throttle or partial throttle works great no problem.

I am using the rear of the wheel buttons/paddles to shift gears, and the LFS control setup is set to sequential or shifter neither works right.

Also tried turning off autoclutch but that does not help either.

Anybody have this problem too and find an answer how to fix it??

Thx

Rob
