aa isnt working on my demo, ive done all tricks including force via riva tuner which does make a small difference but compared to the shots on this thread it is jaggie.

right the problem is.. me lol

i think i was expecting different textures when in fact the size of them jumps from 91kb to 700kb so just higher quality.

thing is i already run crisp 1080p on high so the difference isnt imediatley obvious

Quote from hrtburnout :Mate, you deleted EVERY texture file, instead of just the track textures mr. Kar updated.

but the instructions say replace folder.. so i did and this removes lots of original ones hence the error.

so why when i manually just add in the new files into the folder does it not work.

whats the truth.. do i move two new folders and overwrite existing, or do i manually add the files into the folder ?

now, i did something different this time and didnt get that error above but still didnt see any difference in image.. am i meant to see red/green chevrons ? i still see blue and white

what i did was copy the files within the folder into the real LFS data/dds folder and overwrote existing files rather than copy the whole folder and replace as i noticed there were more files in the original than the hi-res pack, and as a result i got no error but it also didnt load new textures just the same ???

Quote from Deutschland2007 :What you do is:

1) keep the original dds and pic folders

2) back those two up

3) take the high-res zip file and put the files from the dds and pic folder in the ones that are in the data folder

4) overwrite the old files with the new ones you´ve put in

5) profit

done this and also with this Blackwood Hi-Res Textures (Feel The Speed in your Blood)

still nothing

is there anywhere i have to put the original folders ?

i arent missing anything.. i use winzip to extract to my downloads folder.. in the extracted folder there are 2 folders well theres an _alt one but i leave that alone. i copy both those folders into memory and paste into LFS data and overwrite the original folders

still nothing


latest LFS Demo, win vista 32 home.

why not use the driver graphics a bit and allow for some pit walking before the race and a chat function, gives it a real race feel. spectators can look like spectators and you can throw in some bot/grid girls too

ok,

completley deleted folder for dds and pic.

then copied dds and pic to LFS folder.

as its loading it says "cant open.. " etc.. to all files

is it a vista permisions thing or what

why when i replace the files does nothing happen and why when i delete original LFS folders then create new folders in LFS data does it not open the files

same here i did a fresh install of the demo and used the updated demo texture pack and couldnt tell a bit of difference.

the screenshots posted look quite a bit different.

i followed the very straight forward copy and paste instructions too ??

Quote from Whiskey :The game is not known because it does not have awesome graphics, or very impresive TV advertisements.

You can't show the physics into videos. Thats way much people never try the game when someone talk about it to them

but it does have awesome graphics.

think about it. what game apart from the very latest forza3 on x360 has anything like these ? im talking pin sharp, realistic look with great resolution. they arent really far off GT5P on PS3. interior is really nice as is exterior ok not as rounded as ps3 but just as detailed texture wise.

im running on a REALLY crap 8600gt gfx card with 256mb. no game i try will really run over 15-20fps with details on, yet im running high settings @ 1080p WAY over 60fps x4 ansi and x2 anti.

can wait to get my new build up and running to get eyefinity on this


the truth is though a pc could do much better gfx than 360 or ps3 now so in that context yes there not state of the art.. but where are the better looking games. NFS shift is great as is Dirt 2 but there is a level of cartoonism to all these games in graphics, including grantourismo

ok cheers people.

its a really great game.

how come its not well known ? i see there are about 4 people who made it. is the whole game or scene on the way out ?

i can see a game thats better than any other car game ive played on pc, needs a bit more polish and some nice dx10/11 effects to boot + more cars and tracks. have the devs tried to get backing from a big company at all as it would shift loads of copies

hi,

my first post of many. cant belive how awesome lfs is !

biggest suprise is the graphics, there miles better than any GT2 based game.

really nice.

ok my problem. what setting (as a decent default) for all cars should my G25 wheel be on ?

wheel turn % and compensation ? am i meant to be able to turn the wheel 90deg and the car (first one on the demo that looks like a suzuki) does a full lock ?

id much prefer the wheel to reflect what i do in real life even if that means i only ever use 90deg each way

any help appreciated. i will purchase soon if i can get this answer cleared up.

also whats the default on the demo, i have been playing around and forgot

cheers
