According to the n patch info we do now have ISS state flags?

What exactly do we need ISS state flags for?

Tnx, Dandy

Hi, my shoulders - pain forced me to give up on online racing a long time ago. There is only one exeption: when the SCIROCCO comes on LFS, which I am still waiting for. (No matter if the fuel consuption is faked or not) - I WANT MY SCIROCCO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

never

2008 to today ist 6 years of selling licences. I can perfectly understand that, it´s also (still) worth that money.
If I look at Iracing, which is incredebly expensive (and I drive too little to spend that much), LFS was allways at a GREAT price! And I allways stated that I would also pay for extra content (as I playes soo many hours).

I never asked for a new tyre model.

I would have liked to receive the scirocco and rockingham, the one or the other way....

I am not a psychiatrist so I can only try to tell what I feel, understand about myself and online-racing games:

1) LFS was on of my Life-time-games.

2) Stange enought, nothing out there is simply better, from 2004 to 2014 (INREDIBLE acomplishment of the DEVS of LFS!!!)

3) It is uncredible that LFS has not found a way to develop forward.

4) I onced loved the game, my team, the community and the novelty of the whole LFS-phenomenon.

5) LFS has not been developed as a game since (estimated) 2008.

6) I am not a psychologist enough to understand why someone might keep defending the situation.

7) I am still here.

8) Where is the tyre model (come on!?) scirocco, Rockingham and S3 and so on?

Z30 Dandy Dust aged from 35 to 44 with/without LFS, wonder what happended to the devs of LFS.

Posts like Yours show that mainly it is brain dead.

Hi there!
I have a new PC and I am all right with setups and skins.
But where are my costumized chat-lines files? Tnx, Dandy

Project C.A.R.S & F1 2013 (Not much going on on the prokect cars servers, f1 2013 is more buisy, I find racing intense on this socalled arcade game...)

Forget about it! LFS is dead. Come over to Steam, purchase Project CARS from Slightlymad Studios and come for 2013-type racing. The game is still under development, but You can expirence a new patch every week or so.
Dandy

Hi there!
I have a new computer. I could transfer the car-setups and the skinns.
But how/where can I find the file with my personal chat-hotkey configuration? Do You have an idea? TNX, Dandy

I would have never thought so, but my froozen in time - experience has lead to the fact, that I don´t play LFS any more for over half a year or so...

Especially as I have come to the conclusion that there is no development going on, what so ever...

1.april is over...

@jopapuba

You are 100% right, that only a very small part of the very many interesting combos in used in the public LFS-scene!

One reason: the active communitiy has shrunk.

If You have many hundrets of players online, you will find many more sucessfull variations in the server - comobs.

That´s I actually mean the most, when I say the community WAS great.

Of course there are still many NEW players showing up, and all together, there are allways very passionate racing-drivers arround!

One reason why I am still here, playing LFS very seldom, I just finally know every car in every corner...300000kms Plus is a little bit...

greetings, Dandy

My secret theory is, that nothing big is in the oven of the devs.

There is not s3 in the pipeline and the physics, (come on!) are beeing announced for YEARS now, but no beta-testing or anything like that is in question, was never in question.

They are finde with selling a fiew hundret extra licences and that is about it.

They were looking for sponsors in the automibil-industry, but it did not work out all that fine, and now that the game is graphically outdated, there isn´t much that can be done...

I still somehow hope I am absolutely wrong, and they suddenly come up with some S3, content, cars, tracks, Night-vision, ladder-system, stuff & real life events, professional public relations that deserve the name and so on.

But nothing has change, exept a saftey patch and a open all tracks patch in about 6 YEARS! That´s eternal in the computer-gaining-world!

Greetings, dAndy

Besides the extremely great netcode the BIGGEST SECRET of LFS used to be the livelyhood of the community.

The system of the dedicated servers that can be joined while racing is on and have not to be left between the races (like project CARS) is the REAL great thing about LFS.

Without the people playing in the hundrets not enough servers are active to keep up this incredible feeling of choice, that used to be there some 5 years ago.

I don´t even need better graphics and much...

dandy

Hi all!

I am just saying, that ONE car and ONE new track as the new LFS-content,
without any perspective in therms of S3 and therefor a living LFS-community, will not be enought to keep this szene alive, as it once was.

The bad public relations of the DEVS only lead to one conclusion:

There is absolutely no development in the pipeline. That´s the impression I have.

Dany

I am being amused:

cargame.nl is (unintentionally) going zynical about the current lfs-situatuion:

Quoting a progress report from the year 2011 is zynical.

I am driving project CARS right now, it´s far from perfect, but there you get new cars and tracks and physics and stuff week by week.

How sick are we, to discuss the stupid scirocco any more at all?

It won´t save LFS even if it came out with Rockingham and new tyre-physics tomorrow... sorry.

Dandy

EDIT: Today we got a new car in CARS, I think it´s a Renault Megane, last week we got a cool small BMW...

For the moment I don´t play LFS any more (like most of our team-members)

We need rather many new courses and cars.

If someone just got started he/she will find:

1. Best netcode in the world
2. Great logic Interface
3. Community impelentation
4. low tech - high performance hardware requirements
5. Individualized skinning

Dandy

@jajp999: There is no way of regreting to buy LFS.

it is the best game for real - live - time - oneline racing!!!


You will be buisy for about 5 years!


Dandy

It is not about patience? It is about comunication in honesty.

There is no such.

To lurk or not to lurk... some are even more the same: waiting for S3 by playing project C.A.R.S or F1 2012...

TNX man

I was asking myselft about online-racing for a long time, since i liked playing online strategy such as Command&conquer... but everybody i asked said that such a thing would not work properly yet.

THEN, in about march 2005 a saw a demo with the XRT on Blackwood S1 DEMO and PINGO.

I joinend, got me a wheel soon, joined a team (Crash Daddys) that became Zone 30 soon and drove some 300000km+ online.

I still like this game, and I used to love it, but after all these years I feel like I am ready to BUY me some extra content. Cars & Tracks.

Nowadays I like to jump into one of these great ProjectC.A.R.S online races, it is still beta, but there are several updates every week!

Work in Progess, a growing community and much more. Besides this I like driving F1 2012 as well, I know it´s more arcarde, but after all it works online and nothing dirves on it´s own there as well.

If some LFS - development will be showing up - I will be showing up again as well! promise


I have been naging a lot on this forum about progress, but now I am buisy with the alternatives...
