They seem like actual corners that you could setup an overtake with rather than just full send through.

Yep, that is the goal with most of the corner revisions.

I understand it will be a slight change to the flow of a lap, but let's try them first and I'll see how much hate mail I get afterwards!

Quote from tankslacno :

Or is your intention that they are meant as an alternative track configuration only for Oval (at least at first) and for the rest of the tracks, user can add them by themselves?

Exactly that.

Quote from RealistAdam :

Hello, what other maps have you worked on? Is there a different map likely to be...

I've updated Aston, Westhill, Blackwood, South City, Fern Bay and Autocross since the last progress reports. These updates have mainly been kerb, texture, config, additional modelling, lighting and bug fixes.

I've also worked on 2 other tracks but these won't be released in the upcoming graphical update.

Quote from tankslacno :

Sounds wonderful! Thank you! ...

I guess, if anyone wants to add a mini oval in open configuration, they can use that area.

Quote from tankslacno :

When looking at the progress report and those images, I think at least following...

I've added 2 more configs (Sportscar and Endurance) which are based on the layouts used on the RTFR event series. Extra configs are easy-ish to add. I've also added a North Circuit based on a layout file that TFalke used for events, which is a blast to drive in most cars!

Nearer release, I aim get in contact with the original layout creators for their input.

Quote from tankslacno :

Daytona Road Course came immediately to my mind with the possibility of oval section being slower by use of chicanes.

Eric, please tell me that if there actually will be an alternative configuration, where that oval section uses those chalk curves as chicanes to slow down drivers, you will give that track configuration a following name:

Kyotona.

Sorry...

"Kyotona" Brilliant.

Quote from Flame CZE :

I think it's chicanes which may be used in some new alternate configs

Yes, there's an Oval Chicanes configuration. It's fun when driving alone but can be a potential nightmare in a race.

Basically, it needs testing and feedback in the upcoming Beta test stage.

Quote from joaopaulopt :

Hello everyone, I have seen that in the new South city we will have a football...

I like that idea.

But the stadium is very low poly and would require a fair amount of time to make it useable. So there's no plans to develop it further, I'm afraid.

Thanks!

Are the race MPRs available?

Good race! I enjoyed watching that.

The mpr replay's not uploaded yet, but hopefully it will be soon. There's a lot of action to take in!

Yeah....... I'm not gonna fix this......

Just don't look at it. Or race at Kyoto. No more nightmares.

Thanks Pete!

Any MPR's available of both action packed events?

Peter and Travis did an excellent job keeping up with the action, but it wasn't possible to cover everything!

Quote from gu3st :

I really wouldn't put the Logitech G wheels (bar G Pro) in the same category as the T300. The T300 is quite a significant upgrade in force + smoothness compared to Logitech's offering.

Entry level would definitely be Logitech or something like the T148, but then the "mid tier" is definitely T248/T300.

Of course, the explosion of inexpensive DD wheels has definitely pushed the mid tier towards far better hardware than it ever used to be for a relatively minor cost increase. Not that I'd ever buy Fanatec, but a CSL DD is barely more expensive than a T300 with the added fidelity of a DD motor.

I would have to agree with this.

I've owned both the Logitech G29 and Thrustmaster T300 and the FF quality of the T300 is in a superior league over the G29 which feels dull, weaker and muted in comparison.

Excellent opening race! Very entertaining battles and the car and layout track was a brilliant choice!

OK, I'll add 6 more slots to the grid and watch the last 2 corner starters spinout!

Quote from Aleksandr_124rus :

looks great! Feel free if you want to show more

To be fair, I was just replying to Eclipsed post.

I'll think about maybe posting some new Kyoto screenshots sometime soon.

Sorry for the delays.

Quote from johneysvk :

am i correct in counting 34 grid slots? would've thought it'd be 32 or 40

34 slots, yes.

Is 32 or 40 the common number of grid positions?

Short pitlane, unfortunately. It's similar to Suzuka's West Circuit.

I've already added this config!

I contacted to TFalke about this a couple of years ago because I wanted to give credit to the original layout creator.

Very entertaining race, btw.

Brilliant work, Flame, thanks for doing this.

Nice details in the cockpit instruments and it handles nicely as well.

Hopefully we'll see this cool mod in action on one of the RTFR events in the hands of the experts.

Excellent Mod, excellent broadcast and brilliant close racing!
I had to watch a second time with the mpr in VR and the commentary in the background.

Thanks for the bug find!

You'll see the fix in the next Westhill update.

Quote from adirany :

I am not really interested about updates.

It is the strange manner we are treated with.

I think the majority of us are very polite in our posts.

So don't be afraid to speak about LFS.

This forum is here for that.

SPEAKING ABOUT LFS IS ONE WAY TO KEEP IT ALIVE.

It looks like you're not here to have any kind of reasoned discussion about the "state of LFS".

First you suggest that "releasing updates one by one is the right thing to do". When Eclipsed points out that that's what we're trying to do, you then move the goal posts and say you're NOT actually interested in updates anymore and that it's now all about the way you FEEL how you're being treated.

Looks like you have a problem with being honest. No one here with any integrity is interested in having a discussion with a dishonest person. You are not here in good faith. You are here to troll for attention.

Take some time out for wasting our time.
