People have different "lore names" in mind

It's difficult to gather people and brainstorming about lore names and logo that would be used together, as people tends to have their ideals, even with the same brand, they dont usually make changes that differentiate their model (i.e. M4 G82 that have lots of clone), some of them having the same power and weight figures, only different in how it drives

But making search for brands based on mods description, open the vulnerability being searched by manufacturer, thus Porsche and GTA5 mods case would potentially repeat in LFS here

speaking of these reports, Scawen, I wonder if you ever set a deadline about when this massive overhaul being released, I mean, people with deadlines sometimes doing more than what he's capable to, just wonder if that might also applies to you, or even made you overwhelmed with it instead

I do hope multi-threaded process in this new DX11 system would solve strange stuttering problems whenever somebody left the pits, spectated, pitted, joined and disconnected

The symptomps quite unpredictable, sometimes it's fine with all drivers on grid, while it's sometimes occurs severely when just 5-6 drivers on grid

Quote from Scawen :

Hello Racers...

I'm gonna cry, finally dynamic exposures, and ray-tracing -ish lightning with just only DX11 graphic system, finally

Well, I wish (I dont request, but I just hoping it's there too) there's a long straight road in SO on open config, aside upcoming Bankroft tracks, that probably like a tollbooth highway or stuff, and very long enough to race with (I was thinking about 100km way more than enough), because with this graphics, especially if you all had a night time mode, would be cool to see Highway racing like on Wangan Midnight

But if revamped SO track was done already, let's just pretend I'm just mumbling around

Goodluck Scawen, and thankyou, looking forward for the progress

Quote from Eclipsed :

Back then in Aston it wasn't that noticable,but today we're racing in Rockingham and something stung in my eyes right away - car's shadow (raised the car so it's better visible). I guess for better quality some LOD2 improvements are required.

Done for now (before major interior updates)

Quote from Eclipsed :

...When making skin I noticed one slight problem - the door gap on rear side is not being painted with skin and is left white,all other gaps are ok. Best seen on simple lighting.

this also done, as for this, sorry I've been missed this spot when assigning skins mapping

now that's the unusual findings

so far all of my LOD2 are mostly like this, and this is so far just fine, when you pointed it out, now that weird, especially looking at how I made LOD2 so far

smol updates on my Falken Drift M3 E30

really cant do much since I had commissions outside LFSE, also working on 7 to 5 job, sooo yeah

Quote from Eduard.kbg :

Front LED Bar...

A lil tips for the louvre, if you want smooth louvre surface, you could check "fix to center" button on the point tab, so points that placed on center would merged as center point, thus having smooth, non-cutted louvre like that

"Only you have access to it" Doesn't mean you could freely steal it and use it for your personal use, you still need to ask permission for the parts even for your personal use

so I've been driving this lately on Just A Ride server, I may point some things that might be a note for you of this mod:

-the engine sound too muted, I know this is street legal car, but compared to skids and wind sound, it's felt like the engine sounds that almost cant be heared, so I need to crank up my headset volume more. Maybe if you could also lower skids and wind sound, it would be more sensible, otherwise, keeping the engine sounds a little louder, but add more cockpit muffling will do

-I've notice it now with my G29, that the brake pressure way too high for a street car, shouldve lowered a liiiittle bit up until the brake pressed hard

-I've noticed too the car are having torque-steering, that's why TC always cut off even not on very deep angle steering, you may want to retune the stock suspension setup so it's not torque-steering when driving hard, so less TC intervention, and make the car more fun

that's all so far from me, it's great to drive, but still need some tweaks to drive it hard

hello again, this time I made a drift car that had been dusted on my notepad, awaiting to be made from 2022

luckily I've got the most realistic (in my eyes) shape of E30 instead of Rubie's one (private derivatives, sorry Rubie ), that finally made by someone here
Bavaria C30 Turbo

My references was this Falken M3 E30 that using Rieger Genesis Bodykit (which I think no one ever made it yet to LFS) but probably not all-original Rieger kit, because no Testarossa-style side skirt on the door





all the articles coverage about this car I think are provided in this website

Ohh I'm planning to make the same car, but since youre already did it, a little relief I can take it out from my list

Anyway, keep it up bro 😁👏

finally the most anticipated, Mitsu FTO !!!

unfortunately, the screenshot order kinda messed because LFS website cant flawlessly upload more than 3MB files, quite unfortunate, but here's it

the process was the same like the Celica, but this car are based from my RB4 Supertourer, but since I'm not satisfied with shape-shifting, I decided to make it again from scratch

now are the time were Celica ST205 and Mitsu FTO are being questioned

starts from Celica ST205, initially I'm started from RB4, as you can see, but later I think, if I ever work from RB4, then it wont ever be accurate since RB4 are a lore car which subliminate Supra and Celica

soooooo by that, I think I'd better started of from a completely new model

Oh btw, I'm doing it in LFSE, tbh because I've got some anxiety back then, and to be fair, stitching point over point in LFSE are not efficient, but for me, it's kinda stress relief, because when I'm stitching the model, it's kinda rewiring my brain to think clearer

unfortunately, when I'm doing 3D model, as my ADHD kicked in, there's not much progression that I could capture because I'm actually start working on it, but hopes it clarifies if the model were scratch made in LFSE as I'm stated

moving on to the next car in the JGT series that I've made,

next one are Roadster JGT, it's a Miata NA that had excessive tuning, which also LucasMods previously made for Assetto Corsa

again for what's JGT cars that ever exists were Mr.S request, so yeah, I made this because he wanted to

the hardest parts of this, because the info that most likely shown are from Gran Turismo, a 13B Rotary with Turbo, producing 300hp and revs at 8000rpm

luckily, there's an video that shows me exact specs of this weird ahh looking car



anyway as for the 3D model, I've mentioned I'm started not from blueprint, but rather from this one https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/mazda-miata-mx-5-na-d51fcd44b74f4daf8012c41e0400c041 , you could call it retopo, but I would rather say this is completely scratch made because all non-existent parts are made by me

anyway sorry for too few images, when I'm go hyperfocused (yes I got ADHD but not so severe, so I could do daily task function), I kinda forgot to make a screenshot or just press Ctrl+S for the screenshot

so, after lots of discussions with moderator, they said I need to make a development thread (or more likely a post where the work in progress is placed as a proof of authenticity)

I'll start with Ferra JGT - Team Gainer Ferrari F355 JGTC GT300


started from blueprint which I actively import-export from and to LFSE, to get the exact Measurement (thanks to LFSE they could count tyre size, wheelsize and wheeltrack)

initially it's from another work outside of LFSE, but when it almost finished, the requestor was ghosting me, put this to abandoned project within my arsenal of 3D stuff

and funny things, Mr. S (who I had dealing with him with his bad attitude towards me), see this and request me to include this car to the 8 of GT300 cars (which is why it shows on Vol 2), and since he previously paid me a semi-commission (which recently I had returned the total amount to this jerk to end the contracts with him), that's why I convert it from stock F355 to GT300 version one

the challenges are to make this mid-engine turns good, takes me a about 3 months just to re-test how the handling so far (even it's not perfect, atleast it could be driven properly)

the only things that hold me to vote this, is the sound

tbf, when the engine sound are cranked more than 1.5 value, it makes the sound too cliping, quite uneasy to hear the engine sound, maybe if you could fix or reduce the clipping sounds, it would be great

Hello again,

This time I'm making a Road-going car version from my Cammera JGT, called Cammera 773 GT2

basically this is a Porsche 993 but GT2 version, which 3.6L engine got some punch of Twin Turbo from the past, while maintaining 7000rpm redline, it got 400-ish power to go straight in no time

Quote from turbofan :

I remember buying that magazine with a test of the first Testarossa Koenig...

To be fair, this is by far the most difficult handling setup I ever done, expect when my partner been free from his duty and working for the handling of this beauty, it would be so much better than now

For me the rear grip sometimes unpredictable when hitting some bumps on the asphalt, still a homework to do while waiting my partner to perfect it

Hello again,

it's been a while since I've paused modding because IRL stuff, now I'm back with the wildest dream of LFS universe

it's 1000hp 4.9L F12 Italian beast, tuned by German tunerhouse, Koenig

as for handling, the car right now had a decent handling, but still imperfect due to nature of high output and old tyre model of LFS, so expect the car would be hard to drive for some (I still waiting my partner in crime, martin18 to do the magic of the handling)

this mod has 3 config, main config was Testarossa Koenig Special (with the option to put JDM plate or LFS default plate, the second one are based on half modified Koenig kit, more or less a representation of Yoshiaki Ishida on Wangan Midnight Anime series

Quote from johneysvk :

can the number on the dashboard be removed? mapping it off the side of the car...

The ideas initially are used from rfactor 2 car that I've used in the past (370Z GT4), it has dash number as car number, and also perfectly (and often) used when doing simracing broadcasting stream, especially when identifying drivers and teams while om cockpit view stream, so I think that would give some ideas to any race car driver to make too, especially if the race are broadcasted.

As for how it's lowres, because on the final export, probably LFSE compresses it way too hard, that makes it's pixelated and blurry, if you made your own skins based on that, with 2048x2048 resolutions, that would be fine so far, but maybe we need to think better placements of it, so it wouldnt be way far offside to be mapped

hello again

so I initially dont have any ideas for Brett's XF Gimny, but suddenly after some lots of time surfing on the google, I found out there's Rally Raid version of this car, was build from my local automotive influencer (also Rally driver), that's why this build are based on his car, but with exaggerated specs

the engine swapped using 3S-GTE, tuned to 300bhp, with some diet on the car and suspension setup that fitting to rally courses, it still could drive hard, but dont exceed the point where the car would flip (I cannot judge if this are realistic, since actual car are quite tall, eventho the package of the car were tiny)

sooooooo there you have it

Unsure if it needed, buuuut if anyone would use it as "Rain Tyres" While waiting Scawen and team updating the new physics (I do really hope, there would also be wet asphalt surface too so we could simulate rain racing), I'll update all with road_super enabled

Hey ivancsx...

Just for the notice, I've already fixed that weird nowhere triangle on that exterior (left side of the car)

Thanks for covering my mistakes, I would love to know if there's any mistake that I probably missed again
