Judging from the past updates I'm guessing

New language included for some remote regions in Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan
New: Customizable map's triangle border color
Improved 64x64 textures, now 128x128 (Voodoo2/TNT2 VANTA users beware of texture memory consumption, S3 Virge DX/Trident 1mb not longer supported, sorry)

FIX: Small click sound when you pressed CTRL-ALT-U-F1-*-4856 at the same time
FIX: Crash when you stared at your dog in a cloudy day while you play LFS with a Wiimote naked.
FIX: Red start light wasn't red enough

Physics:
none

Damage:
none

Sound:
none

Graphics:
Higher resolution image in seatbelts




Doesn't matter what I'd like, my expectations are not high anymore (that's good because media/info blackout tends to create high expectations)

I was playing with the graphic options and something strange happened with the Simple track (no car shadow) option, when I clicked on ALL my usual 10 fps went down to 2 using the cockpit view

P4 2.8c Asus P4P800 Deluxe 2x256 OCZ Ati 9600 SE with cat 5.13
Usually runs at 15 fps but when I disabled HT from the bios it goes up to 50 but it's not as fast as with cat 5.11. It's like there is a frame rate limit because it doesn't matter which resolution I use or which graphical setting I change it always stays the same.

Well....just tried 5.13 and I still got the same problem.

Too bad because I was about to buy S2 but now I'll wait for a fix.

I won't go back to 5.10 because 5.12 and 5.13 gave me a HUGE performance boost in all games, except LFS.

Thank God I saw this thread. Got the same problem, Cat 5.12 run great with most games (I tried 10 different games) except LFS


Just roll back to the previous driver for now

Why don't we ask Eric if he can release all the original LFS textures, if those got scaled down to save some space or vid memory it means that the originals are high res.

Or we can wait for the Christmas surprise resent: (hint hint!)

The biggest problem with media blackout is that the longer we wait the higher our expectations will be, but if they show us some stuff then we'll know what to expect. I remember some other games and mods that had more than one year without showing a single screenshot and when the game/mod was finally released it was a HUGE disappointment.

I know the fans won't have a problem if the devs don't show anything but perhaps the rest of the LFS players will lose interest.

Don't listen to him, this app is VERY useful and it'll help people to race better.

I've been using PitSpotter for some time and now everyone tells me I'm the most clean racer in the community so Thank You for all this programs that make LFS MUCH more enjoyable.

Keep it up

Working great so far, and I'm glad that this bug "Last key pressed in text box could activate its function" is fixed, no more gear changing surprises.

Momo Racing (black) and I have a few different profiles for LFS but now I'm trying this one:

Overal 100%
Spring 0%
Damper 0%
Enable Centering Spring....
Centering Spring 0%

I'm using this based on what I've read on the old RSC forums

I see now, well I bought the wheel JUST for LFS but it didn't felt right so maybe FFB wasn't that great but when I tried other games including arcade ones I was impressed with the effects but in LFS I had to use the force at 150% just to feel something and even then sometimes I couldn't feel the grass or the blue and white thingies in the corners, sometimes I felt it for 1/2 sec but then nothing happened. I will buy S2 soon but I think FFB is an issue and it must be worked out because there are other games that have a great FFB feeling even if it's not "simulated" and makes the game much more enjoyable.

I guess i was a little upset because the wheel was quite expensive, I live in Argentina and things are expensive around here, I paid 100 dollars for it USED and here we have 3 - 1 peso/dollar parity so i had to get 300 pesos which is a lot of money here

I hope it will get fixed/improved
Custom Force Feedback Options

It would be nice to have different set of options for each type of force feedback effect just like in other games because in LFS you can only feel things when FF is very strong but the wheel is also too strong so it's not good for me plus I don't feel the dirt road in rally except when I touch the grass.

Something like:

General Wheel Strength 0%--------100%

Surface vibration effect (grass, dirt,the blue and white thingie on the corners, etc) 0%--------100%

Other Effects like gear changing, damaged engine, damaged wheel and other small effects 0%--------100%

And maybe add 4 buttons on those settings so you can choose predefined settings like Light Medium Strong and Custom

You could add more if you remember more effects. It's very simple to do I think and it'll add a lot to the game.


So what do you guys think?
