Very nice!

I changed the pitch and roll leveling to 0.5 and 0.5. If they're at 1.0 your head stays unnaturally level with the horizon no matter what the car's doing; it's like you're the stig. If you have a bouncy setup and accelerate/brake/accelerate/brake it's not good. 0.5 seems to be a good comprimise

Quote from shadow2kx :

There is something that make me 'laugth' in a way about the price of the week3 LX Month challenge. It's that this week you can win a wonderfull wheel, wich evrybody would kill to have. But we all knows that's a wheel owner who will win this wheel. Never a mouse owner would be able to win it Even if there is some great mouse racers.

I just wanted to notice that even if i know that there is nothing to do but work hard to try to demontrate that i'm wrong, at least i hope

Note to support my words: Week1, 1st mouse driver: 49th place, Week 2: 66th place ... It's gonna be hard

Will there be another competition sometime for just racers using a mouse? It's basically impossible for us mousers to win this competition.

Will there be any chance of prizes for different control methods? Using a wheel'll always be faster than a mouse / kb. Perhaps another competition sometime?

Well done all so far!

Quote from Lautsprecher[NOR] :

So, let me get this straight. You want Scawen to change something in LFS just because you'r to lazy to get a working card?

If anything, it'll increase compatibility. I too have a faulty card but that's because i have an old desktop replacement, and to replace the card I'd have to buy a whole new computer $$$.

Thanks for the comments!

Quote from EmilO :

How did you make the front so flat at the blackwood track?

by doing one or two headon collisions beforehand

The stunt in the ufr is possible with a certain set that's going around. fun fun

From the creator of Colliding Temporalities, Pacifica Racing Brings you a production with Gusto...

This 4 min music vid features some late night shenanigans on the PR server with Spoonsports and Cetram and on another server with Tofuboi and PeteSSS from a few weeks ago.

Specifically, jumping over bridges, bumping into a two wheeled UFR, and general airborne mayhem...

Music by Do As Infinity - Raven

I've released this in two sizes:
1024x768 version 163 MB, WMV9, 30fps (view in windows media player, syncronisation issues in media player classic I think for some reason)
640x480 version 35MB, Xvid+Mp3, 30fps

I have a bunch of screenshots, but for some reason RSC doesn't like linking thumbnails to the fullsize image

Quote from (SaM) :

I have acces to a professional blue screen studio in Rotterdam.

Trackah123: I just used a blue tarpaulin as a bluescreen for putting in real drivers and a real lx into lfs, and it worked quite well. As tristan mentioned (), see my short film.

Reuploaded in higher quality, in a mirror as requested.

Top video mate.

I love the huge array of different camera angles you captured. Absolutely excellent. I also love the final fade from blackwood to aston, worked really well.

I only wish those UF1000's were going over jumps; I would give it 5 stars if they did

Great work dude

LFS got a brief mention in a story featuring myself and another student in the University of Adelaide's news publication, The Adelaidean.

It's annoying that I was misquoted... but oh well

Edit: yup, a lowish quality version of the video is available to download via the thread mentioned in my sig. I might up a higher quality one to the movies pits soon.

Quote from tristancliffe :

I can't wait to drive in the rain!!! I know noobs won't be able to do it (although they will try). But that doesn't mean private servers or adminned servers can't kick those unworthy of racing in those conditions.

Imagine, the FO8, round South City (but hopefully a mich narrow track, more like Monaco), spray everywhere, from your wheels, on your visor, hanging between the buildings. You can see the road markings a few feet ahead, but that's about it. You're driving via the noise of engines around you.
Suddenly, out of the spray looms another FO8, this one with major left-rear suspension damage. In the split second you've got before you hit him, you realise that his damage will proabably cause him to swerve left, and that you've probably just run over some debris.
You chuck the car right, but it momentarily aquaplanes on a puddle, before catching and slinging you round the obsticle. Only the slightly raised kerb and offline marbles stop you hitting the wall.
Remembering about debris you take it easier for a couple of laps, just in case you get a puncture.

Sounds like a recreation of the 1991 Australian Grand Prix. If the weather conditions in S3 reach that level of insane conditions for open wheelers (and all the other classes), that'd be just awesome Keep at it Scawen!

No mirrors I'm aware of, sorry. I wish I had the webspace to host it; KeMoT is very kind. Seems to be working here.

Probably a bit late notice, but Colliding Temporalities has made it to the 6th Cine Vis Cinema 2005 International Film Festival to be held in Tokyo, Japan between the 21st and 23rd of October 2005. My film will be screening on the 21st (tommorow/24 hours time!) in the 2pm session (immediately after intermission), at the Tokyo International Forum, D1 Hall. There may be a remote chance of a repeat screening at the end of the festival.

Just for some background info, the Oscar nominated short Birthday Boy was screened at these same two events
If you happen to be in the area, take a look!

Admission: 1,000 Yen (inc tax)
Program: Japanese / English translation

Thanks again Victor, Eric and Scawen, and it wouldn't have been possible without DJGlass and his clubman!
