Just, WOW..

So much detail, very interesting to read. Thank you, Scawen, for this insight in to game development and LFS.
Very humbling to read how much you can get done in a day, I'm no coder, by I did try to learn some python. Just getting a few simple lines of code to work took hours, creating my first very simple app took days. And then it would not work properly..

I hope you don't mind me opening a thread about your locked thread, you didnt lock it for no reason, but I think there are some knowligable people on here that might give some cool insights on the stuff you posted.

And to the community, I was wondering if we could chip in together and give Scawen an modern pc Seeing as he is still on some old duo core system with a 60 hz monitor


Great read, specially since now I spend way to much on iracing just so I can race in VR. (The grapics being tied to the physics background stutter thing maybe me choose iracing over getting back in to LFS when I got a VR HMD)

Mostly, price... Vive 900 eulo, and you need a phat PC 1000 eulo.
PSVR, 400 eulo, and you need a ps4 300 eulo.. Also people who claim to have tried all 3, vive occu and psvr say psvr is most comfortable to wear, doesn't have godrays and due to the subpixxels has the least screendoor effect.
What the occu and vive do better is tracking, and the vive allows roomscalle (if you have the room).
So for me it was cost price, and if this thing will become fully functional on PC... Well can't beat that price for LFS VR experience

Can't wait for LFS vr, bought a Playstion VR and seems it will work with pc. So with a bit of luck I can drive in VR soon!!

Man time flies... and the world is still a mess

Quote from Fordman :

Why are all these classic drivers popping up here, and you don't see them on track

Come on Golden Oldies, dust off that wheel, WD40 those pedals and lets get some old skool classic action going on....Who's in?

Fordie

Indeed, last time I hooked up the wheel to the pc is age's ago.. Thx for posting that list of names though, brought back the memorys of the old days

Uhm so ok, nobody actually took the time to watch it? But you all have your opinion ready?!

You should really take care NOT to lump everything together. But you also have to be carefull not to believe everything you read on the internet.

But please do take care in informing yourself!!

Watch this, it's very interesting!

http://topdocumentaryfilms.com ... ld-according-to-monsanto/

Take your time to view the whole thing, I watched it in several stints..

It just WOWed me, not just what the documentary is about, but also what it implies for "democracy" and the amount of power of multinationals/lobbying..

There are products in my local supermarket that contains this stuff. I ate it...

Bose, maybe from the street to your house is copper, but most of the net is replaced with fiber by now...

Hmm don't think we will see this track soon, S2 is still alpha, maybe with the next patch it will turn beta, but S3 still has alot of thing needed to be done. That is if they still have the same plans they showed us through the years... S3 would get a new engine which makes it possible to get nighttime, weather and the likes... so S3 is still 3 or more years of...

lets just hope we get some stuff while we wait for S2 beta and gold.... ow wait we are still waiting for the S1 rally-pack right


Sorry that I'm a bit cinical... (been here for a long long time (pre S1))

1 : 43 : 56 just a guess.

Quote from The Very End :

Don't come here with the peace talk, scammers, cheaters, exploiters are all the same, worst kind of people you can encounter. If I ever had got my hands on a person that had scammed me, I would seriously tell what I felt about him, with a big chance of broken nose.

So you think that hitting somebody who's already strayed from the good path will set em straight again? Imho that's the same thinking as "our" retarded correctional facilities.. Punnishing people who've had a bad life and most likely a bad upbrining instead of helping them become whole again...


I think if you showed scammers, cheaters or exploiters the results of their wrong doings and you showed them how to have a positive influence they would have a much more fullfilling life and as a result you would have cured the world of one scammer, cheater or exploiter and thus would feel better yourself

I understand the initial emotional reaction of "I'll kill the bastard" but I do hope you find the spark of light in you that will tell you it's the wrong way of achieving your goals in life.

I'll now.

Sorry for digging up an "old" thread


But this rocks!! Took me a few minutes to get it setup but having a blast already, and haven't even got proper leds mounted yet

Just the feeling you get when looking through the turn like you do naturally, it's just great! (Prolly due to the widescreen tft I already lean abit into the turn when turning, so this translates perfectly in FreeTrack)

Had a Wii, just got me a bluetooth dongle. Fixed some thick metalwire in a shape so it "mounts" at the back of my tft with the wiimote on top.

Just tried it out with one IR source (lol a candle) think the headphoneclip will be in the mail tomorrow. I'm amazed at how easy it is, just connect the wiimote via bluetooth, start FreeTrack, start LFS and GO


So next time you see me racing, you'll prolly notice me headbanging on my music

I can recommend this to anyone who already had a wiimote or webcam. And since FreeTrack saved me lots of $ spending on the evil TrackIr monopolists I'll make a donation with a big

greetz SMOKE

(sorry if this sound so much like a commercial but I'm just happy with the result)

Yep no LRF or LX4 online... IMHO adding more cars will not make LFS a better experience. And why there was a "Cruise Server" filter added but no "Drift Server" or just a general "Non Race Server" filter....

But I don't want to be negative, always look on the brightside of life. We still got THE BEST online racesim, even before any other race-sim or game ever had online support.

Long live SACVIER and may they lead happy and fullfilling lifes



Ow and that counts for everybody

Sorry for the OT :

Good to see alot of the old time LFSers here in the thread, and instanly you get the old LFS community feel, people the respect each other, make a few jokes and give props where props are due!

On topic, damn you nutter

Hehe good old times (for me that is). To bad GT1 didn't work out but rember you started the team for the fun of racing


Good luck to all of you in the next race!

This all reminds me of something I used to say alot to people who where gloomy.

Live in the now, two persons can go through the same thing but have a very different experience. Imagine two people at a busstop, the bus is late, one of the two is totally stressed out and only looking in the direction he's expecting the bus to come from, while the other just shrugs his shoulders the bus will come by it self nothing he can change about it at that moment and just enjoys the nice sun overhead and spots a bird gathering twiggs for a nest (or what ever)...

Your view on the world changes your experience of it. If there is a problem you can't fix a this time or moment leave it be for now and focus on something else. Be in control of your own mind

Not to say your not aloud be feel gloomy now and then. With every up there is a down. If there are no downs there are no ups.. all would be grey blur...

Maybe I just read one book to many

hmm this sounds like a wake up call..


To bad it is all to easy to live through life unhappy unfufilled, maybe the state we live in, the world we created doesn't compli with human needs.. Do we really need to work 8 or more hours a day? Do we reallly need all kinds of gadgets to take our minds of things like loving and caring for our "neighbour"..

a bit more, give a compliment to yourself and just some random persons. Don't watch to much corrupted mass media. Find out what there is you can do (not to just merely enjoy yourself).

The force of imagination turns the tides! Mind over matter..

Namasté

How did ya make the music, with a reason/cubase or such a thing? Guitars sound very good if so!

Hmm I don't think adding more combo's will solve that problem as it is now people are still driving as nat with gtr since s2 released.. There are so many tracks and cars almost unused...

Cool thanks for the little museum Fun to see all the "same" cars look so different. Nice to see how small details can give a car a totally different look.

Atleast I enjoyed it, so not all your effort went down the drain

Just added some odd mix of cars on oval, practise, a MRT got flipped, no reset, and AI dont shift S orso, so it just lay there, untill it got hit again landed on it's feet.. nothing happend.

Shouldn't it try to reach the pits? why doesnt it move?

Also on track they seem to evade eachother, but exiting pits they just drive in to each other full speed. Mind you, it was an odd combo so big speed differances but still

All servers give "no reply" after I connected to a server which was full, I pressed back to get to the serverlist, pressed refresh.

LFS does "check" them, but no servers show up.

FIX, going back to the multiplayer screen (where you can fill in a password and select connect to specfic server etc.) and clicking "check hosts" again. Then it did show up instantly..

ow and it is repeatable.

Quote from Scawen :

Which car and track configuration was that?

SO Chicane, saw it doing a damaged RAC each time, altough an other RAC and LX6 made the same mistake a few times. The damaged RAC never got a chance to repair due to always entering to complete drive tru and getting a new one.

Entering pitlane to fast, getting DT, comming in for DT entering to fast getting now DT, etc etc etc..

Overtaking on the straight they give a much to aggressive yank on the wheel causing them to spin out.

They have no "race sense" no blocking or proper overtaking.

Also crashed/rolled AI should be removed from track..?


Of the 12 cars that started 3 reached the finnish, those 3 where FZ5 cars, one LX6 managed to keep going till lap 39 of 45. Rac, XFR's UFR's and other 2 lx's crashed or rolled early in race.

Thanks for the tip *Foucault's Pendulum* I'll have a look in to it

Although I agree with you that it's not worth your life keeping track of what bilderbergers(etc.) are doing.. although I did make the choice to create a life for myself (and help those around me that live to work and ain't happy but feel a need to change) where work and material thing are worth alot less and things as love, compasion, just helping somebody out without expecting something in return, trying to be balanced in mind and body etc. etc. is worth alot more...

It's everybodys free choice to do with their lives as they wish, and for me it feels alot better to spend time with my family, just enjoy the sun while laying on some patch of grass, share thoughts and feelings with those interested and as a cost have a little less money, then to be working 2/3th's of my life just so I can buy crap that makes the feeling of emptyness go away for a short period. Until the buzz is over and I want/need something else to make me happy.

I on the other hand understand that not everybody feels this way and that is their fair choice, as long as it's a choice though!... (catch my drift?)
When people are not think/exploring for themself how can they know what they are doing is what they want? (We are thaught alot, but to me it feels like they left out quite a bit, things that are quite important to me.. now that is, I wasn't always some openminded post hippy kinda guy )

I would like to go in to more detail as I spend quite some time of my life reading up on all kinds of views on life, but I still didn't find a definitive answer. (I missed alot of this in my yought, or did they theach you at school how to be happy?) All though I think alot would be offtopic as I concentrated more on boeddhisme, spirituality, sumerian history etc. etc. and not so much on Free Masons, war, brainwashing etc.


/me hopes that I didn't offend anybody, if so it was not my intent.
Hope you all have a beautifull day, and atleast give a friendly "hi" to one person you don't know today
