Thats outragous!

Quote from Gai-Luron :

Probably strange config in locale. Like separator for decimal used in your windows. Take a look in this direction.

For LFSLapper, post int the good area.

Hey Gai!

LfsLapper is working for me.
LfsStats isn't! I want to know about LFSStats and not about LFSlapper!

Hi everybody!

I'm no scripter and tottaly new to this, but so far, I got my server running, and did some little adjustments in LFSlapper.LPR That worked out fine, and it runs good!
Now, as most servers have, I want the welcome screen with the rules and Accept and Deny button, but I didn't figure it out wich program it is and how to use it.

The problem where I'm talking about is in the attatchment!
I got my LFSlapper working, and Server running on my computer.
But somehow I can't get LFSstat to work and a friend of mine, who's helping me out is kinda lost either. It keeps failing to connect with an error in the screen.
I made up a screenshot!

So if you please want to look at it and tell me the problem and possible solutions, I would kindly appreciate that

Thnx in advance!

Mike

While in cockpit mode or external view press SHIFT U

Quote from KevinJD :

But if i accelarate i either go to far and come of the track or spin out of control xD?

KJD.

You have to build it up steadily!
Make sure when you come out of a corner, and you feel the back sliding away, you don't steer back to quick, because when it regains it's grip it will eventually shoot you into the other direction and out of control. And end up spinning aswell.

Also if you can't keep your car on the track while cornering, and u end up in the sand, try a little less throttle, or steer into the corner more fluently!

Quote from khoianh94 :

I see, at the right-left-right section after the backstraight you are far away from the curbs. And having the race line on is now the best way to learn a track. If you know the track enough it's better to find yourself out how to drive the fastest line for your driving style.

And driving fast isn't the only important thing - the lap 1, backstraight thing was unnecessary. Leave him some space and drive a bit more on the right, but don't just push him away.

I recon that yes! I said sorry already. He was faster then me and he moved a little left and I a little right, so we appologized to eachother! I learn from those mistakes

I will try to improve some more with my raceline.

BTW: isn't there an option, that you can lay down the race line of someone else's lap. Like for example the raceline with brake and throttle points from the WR?

Quote from oli17 :

replay the lap u want analysed, and the lap before your fastest lap, press Esc and then Output data (or something similar), then watch that lap all the way through, and when its done, go to lfs->data>raf, and there will be your hotlap thing. upload that to hotlap analyser and compare it with any others already uploaded. ok?

That makes sense dude!

Thanks,

anyone other has advises?

Quote from oli17 :

practise then i'd say. press 4 to get the racing line, and just push it. also, F9 shows tire temps, try to get them green all the way through for best grip. also, use hotlap analyser - http://www.lfsworld.net/rafa/ and compare it to the WR to see where you're going wrong.

hope this helps and good luck

Hey,

Thanks, in a race I always make sure I have the racing line and tire Temp up my screen! Somehow I just can't work it out why there's a car behind me, coming from nowhere... Or it seems it comes from nowhere and rockets away from me.

I have Lap analyser! But, I can't find the right files to compare hehe
It doesn't work with MPR or SPR. So what to do then?

Quote from oli17 :

using a wheel?

Logitech G25

Sorry for letting away that info.
I'l edit it right away

What you can do aswell is download Nhancer.
If you set the ingame AA and AF to 0/none, you can adjust it at Nhancer! Makes performance better and looks better!

Good luck

Hello there,

There are probably 10002039 topics about this subject. Still, as everyone is different from eachother, I decided to start a new topic.
The thing is, I'm relatively new to LFS with about 1 week of driving experience. And now i have a 'problem?'

The point is, when I drive my FBM At BL GP1, I can't lap it faster than about 1:15.70, so I included a replay, with some faults in it ofcourse, but there is a lap where I'm driving 1:15.89 or something. I really really really want to know where I lose my speed with this custom setup.

I'm really looking forward to some helpfull comments and tips!

Thanks in advance,

Mike

EDIT: I am using a Logitech G25 wheel

Hi there!
I am new to LFS too! I downloaded a setup and I liked it, but fine tuned it so it's very stable on the BL GP track. I'm not a fast driver, yet. But I managed to drive my PB with it, wich is 1:15.700 and a friend of mine also drove that time, I belief it was 1:15.600.

So if you are interessted I'll put it up as an attachment.

Enjoy! And let me hear what you think.

Mike

Good peace of information about damage!
Thanks for all the information for beginners! It is doing a great job for me

Good day all !!

My name is Mike, a 16-year-old boy from The Netherlands.

After going to all country's with my friends from the MX(motorcross), I decided that I wanted to do something virtual aswell!
So I played Test Drive Unlimited.. It took me 4 minutes to discover it was good fun, but not a sim in any kind of way.

So next I bought LFS S2, without looking what it was, kinda foolish, but all worked out just fine.
I had an old Thrustmaster Joystick wich was breaking down quite badly, so I saved some money and bought a G25, and I love it So I've hit a lucky combination I guess, LFS + G25 = Great addictive fun

So now I play LFS for about a week seriously and It's all steady going.
My achievement, where I'm most proud of is to drive the FBM on BL GP round in 1:16.34EDIT!:1:15.600(with someone crashing me 10 ft in front of the finnish so I Lapped sideways)
Still about 3 seconds slower than the fastest at LFS, but It's a start hehe!

A friend of mine plays this sim aswell, ended up with the same wheel as me! He bought S2 yesterday.

We made up a little Team named Forza Fuel! And we drive with the >>Forza<< Tag. Just for fun till we get better and stuff, and know why we keep getting time outs on our own created server hehe! (FAIL!)

So in daily life I'm a musician, aswell studio work as live performance. And that is were my passion lies. But when inactive with the music I play as much LFS as i can.
(music btw: www.youtube.com/MikeRoelvink)

My hobbies are playing guitar, longboarden, LFS ofcourse, computer, hanging out with friends and enjoy musical things.

Hope to have told you something 'bout myself!
If you want to ask a question, do not hessitate!

Righto?

Cheerio,

Mikey
