good point, but why not allowing all views for spectators?
(if it's already that way, I'm sorry... haven't tested the patch myself yet)

EDIT:
Mark, what's wrong with you... you agree with me???

What can i say Jan.. its a love hate thing..

Quote from three_jump :

forward and backward + up and down. That are the options in road cars and "should" be the options in LFS.

Agreed, but lfs seat position is not always central to the wheel i noticed in default view, so alittle adjustment there would be good, unless the devs sort that one out..

Quote from danowat :

Yeah, I have just noticed that you can no longer move the eyepoint, this is maybe not a good idea because sometimes the eyepoint in some cars isn't perfect.

I think forced cockpit should at least give people the option to move the eyepoint, even if it's by a small amount, it might help to satisfy those that don't particularly like the idea of driving in the cockpit?.

Yes this is the one concern i have about it, i always use cockpit view and always will, but i do custom move it abit, as the default settings are not good, so maybe Scawen can allow us to have this back some how, even in F1 they build the seating arrangement around the driver to what he prefers, in all sims i use you are allowed to get seat movement..

I think the word here that is being overlooked, is , SIM, LFS was never made to be a console/arcade game, and i can't say i've seen cars in real life going round my streets with a arm chair strapped to the roof or on the bumper..

Jeez, can't believe you lot are still gasing on about this..

Im a skinner have been for yonks, and want more visible detail, but there are far more important things to worry about in lfs than charging for the privilege of seeing detail more clearly..Devs are going in wrong direction here..

Yes i went from sli to single, and yes i did all the changes needed for that, i tried the latest 3 drivers..i have spoken to BFG support, went through a few checks with them about pc specs, stuff i new was correct, they want to do a rma now, so to me they are saying i have a duff one..It seems the minute i execute a game, and the card goes into 3dmode thats it..

Quote from Jakg :

which PSU though? it may not have the amperage

This one..

PSU is 600w, plenty for the single 8800gts..yes the plug is in the rear..

Quote :

Sounds like the second the card switches to "3D Mode" and starts actually putting its power to use it runs out of power, and dies.

Yes thats a good discription..

Cheers for the reply m8, but it seems there more to this now, everything runs fine, but the minute i execute a game, they wont boot through, and then the pc reboots, any idea's?

Is there problem running lfs and the new 8 series cards?? since i installed mine after a complete format and new install, lfs wont bootup, or does lfs need to be a fresh install as well to get rid of somehting its holding from my past hardware setup??

FOX for me please..

I find the lod is not as good, there's more pop ups appearing later now, espically on Blackwood..

Also is it me, did we have sounds when on the curbs before? and come to that, FF effects as well, there's nout now.?

Thx's to the Devs for all thier work as usual, but i have to say, i think these new sounds are awful, and after many years of driving LFS, these sounds put me off from driving anymore for the first time..is there away to use the old ones?

From one Rodent to another, get well soon Hampster, Topgear fans need you..

Such a young age to lose your life..RIP

Great result for Jenson, and Honda, Shumie got what he deservered, and hopefully he will retire all the way soon..Kimi is a great driver, but i can't support him till he learns to speak, i call him 'Mumbles' Mika was like this too, is it a Finnish thing?

Dan your sig needs updating as well m8...

Yep your right Orion, 300+ skins is insane, and yes it will be the last time for this, i hoping that the Devs will use a suggestion i put forward to them that will resolve this problem, we will all beable to have individual skins, but only have to skin 19 cars..lets hope..

Who is this guy?

Maybe we should ask who you are...

Nice interview guys..

Why should Becky be forced to change her name, just because the tosser's that exist online, why not go the whole hog and tell females not to dress like females and look sexy, and you wont get attacked walking down the streets, when it comes down to it, there are alot of annouying weird, and dam right sick people on this planet, and most of it is directed towards women, i suggest you try and stick it out Becky, or try a good team server, your more than welcome to try T7R servers, where i can assure you, your have no such problems, and there are many other good team servers out there, but also i would say that over the last few months, that the general racing standards again has dropped online all over, as we seem to be going through a period again of being overloaded by dickheads again..

Quote from DEVIL 007 :

MAybe I am blind but when I made test there is no 4x times difference in size between 512*512 and 1024*1024 at all.
1024*1024 askin can be compressed by JPEG at very,very high quality around 400-500KB.

Devil is right, its not 4x the size, far from it, you can have the hi-res version which tops out around 700kb, using 1024x1024, as for causing delays, i wouldn't say that either, this auto up/down system the devs have come up with has proved itself with flying colours, i reckon if they allowed upto a max of 800kb per skin that would be ample..

Tristan, take me off the list m8, the date isn't good for me..

Cheers for the PM ayrton, yep im intrested seeings i had to pull out last time, will look out for details..

We are stayin up..we are stayin up

Wohooo we do the great escape..Redknapp magic again..
