I can't seem to get my rim or anything to work with LFS>
i went from a G27 (worked well)
and since i have had the Accurforce- Fanatec Shifter and other usb pedals, i have trouble calibrating and can't actually use my rig at all.
what is the max USB's the game allows (rfasctor freaks out after 4 i think)

i have 5 at least into my PC.

LFS is recognized as a title in Simexperience software.

it is great that LFS can run on slower spec PC's it makes for a larger community, the only thing i would let a graphic card handle a tad more of the rendering...
good job LFS Devs! I can wait if i have to

this is overall good news
i will love to seen how the car action will compare to the old stuff, if it is getting more and more as real life, this is simply mindblowing.
now about that FIA SuperTruck....

no they want to pass a bill or have done so that will REGISTER bullets
so they can get traced from manufacture-distribution and sale.
the cases will have an ID on them as will the slug or whatever. so everyone is buying up before this happens and the fear the 2nd ammendment (right to have and bear arms...etc.) will be "reinterpreted"
well so says my brother and father who have been stockpiling because of this.

i would have done the brakes, suspension and engine tuning- no paint or buffing or stereo non sense
and wring the cars neck everywhere i went.
its an astra but it is a stinking fast astra and its supposed to be smacked around like a late rent payer

right on
every sonce in a while some cars develop this more than others...a wire hanging or dryness in the air and lots of 'staticky' type stuff in the car, so the charge build up on you and when you leave the car POP...
the ground strap is for real and i have seen lots of the older steel type cars all have them, not so much the newr platic bumper types

The tracks can not be released with out Devs consent easy, the track maps are released to the public- Voted on and the devs make a simple version of the best few and then finally the new track is voted on- and the devs finish the track version

or a degraded track so you can run it but it has no objects in the background, just a track map in a golf green or desert.
so we can test. and after 1000 races the track must be re loaded to LFS? so you can't simply release a track, it would get used up to quick and be a hassle?

i like CTRA but the range of cars AND trakcs rotating through any given one is a bit odd, there is a lot to race on yet CTRA race 1 and 3 have a limited rotation and I suggest it do any and all tracks Live For Speed isn't just Live for Aston, or Live for South City.... and a reverse version of those most of the time.

The inclusion of Race 3 server is great though with the GTR classes cool.

so if this is the case- are we going to get a translation of USA/Canadian English? Australian/NewZealand English?

I am kidding- good job
just curious to know how any requests were there to have this done?
seems odd.
the english speakers don't need variation
is there a Quebecois french pak?

is there really a need ot differentiate between 'Cabria' and 'Volante?' 'Boot' and 'trunk'? 'Bonnet' and 'Hood?' "Clutche' and 'Embrage?'

I think we all couuld figure out these little variations this is weird

Quote from S14 DRIFT :Seems like he's pissed off at the removal of driver aids. It requires more talent and skill to drive as well without these, and it's more of a spectactle for the views. I say bring back the 1950's with those Mercedes and stuff that drifted everywhere. That's what I'd call a spectactle!

well alonso did win 2 races this year in a puke car vesus the Ferrari and McLaren..
one was caution related the other was talent- he can do the business
a two time world champ is a very skilled driver, are there better? have there been better? sure- but alonso is no slouch
I don't imagine he is pissed at losing driver aids, as much as the loss of driver aids to cut R&D costs rather than actuallt improvce the racing
ChampCar did not have traction control or power steering or active anything
what did this do for the spectacle? the best teams still made it look easy and the good driver were still the good ones

Quote from NotAnIllusion :What are the NASCAR budgets like in comparison?

the top teams run about 20 million US$ per team...
but i have read a "showstring budget" runs arounf 12Million US dollars
champ car before the -remerge- were running $3-5 million a year
indy car budgets have crept up a bit as well.
why F1 needs to spen anywhere from 180-450 million is crazy
constructors for chassis and engine can certainly help cut costs i think...
but it would end up being a defacto spec series like waht happened to CC and IRL..

Quote from CasseBent :a GTI VR6? What does that mean? It's a GTI with a VR6 engine?

yes in the States the Gti top model for a while was the Vr6
it was just common place here. the GTi 2.0 turbo and the R32 are the new top VW hatches now

there are good ones to be sure and a good corner is good in every car almost.
the fernbay (FE1) chicane T2-3 flat and on two wheels, awesome.
and the chicane on SOuth city, wicked when you get it right.
the aston corkscrew, is it aston national or GT the lleft hander slightly up hill before the hilly straight to the hair pin..
many good corners, good track developer here...
Tilke can learn something.

brands hatch or donington
easily configurable and more than one layout elevation change ans scenery...
so many tracks i figure it might be easier to get the UK tracks as that is where LFS is developed isn't it?

Quote from Luke.S :So as everyone at school has being saying i guess the world might end on Wednesday. This is because the partical accelerator thing is being used then to simulate the big bang. There is a possibility that this may cause a black hole destroying the planet.


Soo what are your views on this?

well the first particle beam has been launched and has been in circulation
the first beam injection will be september 10 2008 at 9 or 10 am time at CERN,("The first injection of the beam into the machine will be between 9:00 and 10:00 a. m. At 9:15 the LHC project leader"_)
the first collision is scheduled on october 21th 2008 (and the first high-energy collisions are planned to take place after the LHC is officially unveiled, on October 21, 2008 -http://en.rian.ru/world/20080805/115771418.html)

so it might not end tomorrow-

i like the idea of a localized Zip files with all track set for whatever car
I use modified inferno sets, and really what a paint o download the ones i was looking for- getting all the GTR, and XFG/XRG sets one by one Ugh...

this might be easier to organize than a track with a set for every car...
SOuth City alone would have to many to keep straight

ha ha fast
no really if it is a bigger XFGti or a smaller XFR (the race version is known to do the 300hp) this can be set up for a new class then?

i would love to see out of car in game shots not just cockpit shots

i ran into this same problem a few days ago in a CTRA race
i was being lambasted for "wrecking"
a much faster driver couldn't get around me, so he attempted a bump and run, only to side swipe me on the way pat and spinning out
(lag and online issues caused a big spin)
In his view i side swiped him...i don't drive that way-
the next race the same driver was attempting a pass on the outside of a turn and i was passing someone on the inside...
it was close so i backed away... only to see the two of them side swipe eachother and by then i was up to speed and no kidding scraped an already dancing pair of XFG's- and i get threats of "i will report you" and such "wrecker!" they yelled
no i don't understand- everyone is racing (these were lap one incidences) why not give mroe room and back off to make the move later in the race? why can not every driver on lap one attempt to drive the line? i understand in sprint race (under 15 laps) everyone wants to get to #1 especially in CTRA where you do get points.
I am a bit frustrated- i did not have a problem the rest of the day on CTRA or any server.
my apologies to the gents in the wrecks (the loudest crier ended up going ahead passing me to collect 3rd place later anyway)
I did not try to do such.
but what is with everyone being so agro? and blaming? my worst enemy out there is the kerbs anyway, i keep flipping-
