Quote from burnsy1882 :I run W7 as well, and have had that same problem. I overcame that by just making the LFS window span across the two monitors, since I run in windowed mode anyway. LFS recognized that it's resolution was now bigger, and enabled two monitors automatically. I just had to tweak it a bit and it worked well. Kinda disorientating with only one side monitor, but is neat anyway.

I also did not get it working (NVIDIA 8600 GS, Vista) on two screens. I thought it was not possible because the two screen have different resolutions.

Also had to use windowed mode. Then it happened multiple times that the FPS went from 60~65 to 25~30 for some minutes. Small adjustment of the size of the window sometimes had great effect on the FPS (jumping back to ~60 fps)

EDIT: on Z15

To simulate boost you could use a memory hack prog to change the handbrake value in to a negative value. That will speed up your reartires instead off slowing them down.

Will not work online normally, you will get kicked. Maybe it is possible to make a server which will accept it. You have to make sure everyone uses the same negative value.

Do not know if it would be possible with scripts to check that each driver can only use it for 2 sec each lap.

It works offline.

Enough about the looks, this is a racing sim.

With 265 bhp and 1333 kg it has a p/w ratio of 199 bhp/ton. Where the FXO has 212 bhp/ton.

However the R has 350 Nm torque (FXO 270 Nm).

So maybe the R will be a good competitor for the (fwd) TBO class.

IF it will be released and IF setup options are made editable

I was thinking of symbols next to the 'LEDs'

Never thought of this option, looks nice!

Looks nice

Ever thought of making symbols instead of the words?


(you will know what I mean)

I understand you can not make them lit themself, but maybe it is worth a try !

I have it working via PDA, used the program Sidewindow (turns your PDA into an extra screen of your PC)


Problem is the unstable USB connection which easily disconnects during movement.

I also tried to use the PDA as the rearview mirror, that worked, but with only 1 fps.

will post some pics later,

Just what I was looking for!!

Any change of reincarnating this prog?

Or releasing the source?

Works fine with me on my laptop over LAN.

I once made a Ferrari gauge for Analog gauges, if you can and want you may use it for your great prog.

Someone ever thought of making this work on a PDA? (windows mobile) via USB, WLAN or USB?

Edit: found this old 2007 topic

PocketLFS will try it now


I could fix my PDA to my wheel (as on a single seater)

Keep up the good work!

I once made a blank Audi skin, might be useful for you. But no interior or lights.

These interiors are made by me a long time ago. He replaced the aluminum by cf, changed the lights.

I know how these things go:

Ferrari F430 Guage for FZ50 GTR

Ferrari F430 Guage for FZ50 GTR, I think it will also fit the FZ50.

Made for 1440x900 with 100' FOV.

Please report if you can get it working allright. The revs are not 100% correct because of the smaller angle between 0 and 1000 RPM, you could change the min angle but then the needle will be beyond (right of) 0 when stalling engine.

I will not use it my self because:
  • I am used to the look-to-apex effect.
  • I can not get it working with Momoleds and CSR.
  • I am used to see the wheel while driving
Hopefully riskredruM will one day make it possible to add a wheel texture on top of the gauges that rotates with the movement of the real LFS wheel. I do have the Ferrari wheels in hires

I have only made these Ferrari gauges, which I will publish today.

The mod that you need (Analog Gauges) to get it working is made by riskredruM

I'm working on it, will make a background because of the reflections. I have worked hours to make my gauge, but it goes op to 12. I found this on the web, I might use it.



this one is from the F430 Scuderia


I will make the first for FZ50, anyone else can make the Scuderia version for FZ50 GTR

This version works fine with me, the first gave that s/// error.

Only thing left is a RB4 set, but that has the set extension in capitals (.SET)

I get "Could not get car code for RB4", even when I manually change it to .set (without caps)

Quote from PioneerLv :One thing what i hate as i would not use analog guages. Guages are not on background of steering wheel but on it. And when head move with head moves all guages. Not possible to fix it? It is biggest problems in this mod.


Is it possible to make guages under wheel not on it? Example:



Closely:


When you should disable the wheel in LFS and make a wheel picture that moves just like the gauges is in Analog Guages!

Then you could make a different wheel for all the cars. Is that possible? To read out the steering wheel values?

You will not have the hands/gloves on te wheel anymore then. :thumbsdow

Only news that I can report after using my shifter for a few months is that I recently had to reconnect my clutch pedal to another axle, because I got a delay of a few seconds with the clutch.

And I have to readjust the 1st, 2nd and 4nd gear switches, because I have to keep the shifter in those gears sometimes, otherwise the microswitches do not longer keep contact and so the car goes in neutral.

Quote from [RCG]Boosted :i dont understand how it works for u....
i can change the brake force, but it doesnt have an effect.
doesnt matter if i do negative or positive changes.

Well, this is how I think how works:

Somehow it does not effect the normal braking, but with a negative value the handbrake speeds up the movement of the rear-axle.

I think that it is programmed to use force "X" on the rear axle (tires) in the opposite direction of which it is moving. With a negative "X" that force is used to work on the opposite-of-the-opposite of the movement of the the rear axle (tires). So it will give a constant force in the direction of the axle (tires).

When driving backwards and using the handbrake it makes the rear wheels going backwards faster

Quote from bw_krupp :Cool, managed to finally adjust the center diff higher than 20 torque. Now if only there was a way to use insim or whatever to constantly adjust it for an active center diff .

Then you could also make that work for the AWD cars, more/less power to the rear wheels when they have more/less grip. (that will make racing boring)

I wanted to try to adjust the mean gear ratio,

Then you could make an app that constantly adjusts the gear ratio (depending on your speed) so that you are always in the revs with the most power.

(Very annoying constant sound then I think)
