well done ! it works

Hello

I spotted a problem with the AI's braking behaviour at the pit entrance on Westhill.

It happens very frequently that the AIs crash under braking to enter the pits, and this, with any setup.
I took screens with a 2-lap race with a pit stop, where only 1 car crashed, but in an endu run, with warm tyres, they crashed almost every time.

incidentally, the AI is unable to take the entrance correctly and hits the wall! (It's also been known to get stuck against a safety rail on the circuit, when it should be reversing!)

any way of remedying these problems?

Otherwise, the feeling of driving this car is really good.
thanks for your job

inspired by the german track "Norisring" this layout take place on WE1X
The overall shape is the same, especially the right-angled "s", but the 2 hairpins of the Norisring are replaced here by 2 curves with variable radius.
this layout is online on the "Hawkeye Layouts" server for testing during a few weeks

hello, 2 skins for Mods FT1R, FT47R & FT28R
special series "Cup".

Hi, I've been trying to put some LX6 skins on the LX8 and rename them.
It works very well, except for the rear mudguard which, being wider, generates inappropriate stripes on the outer edge of the mudguard.
I corrected this by making a transparent layer to put on the LX6 skin that I put here (of course, you have to recolour the layer with your colours)
a request too: would it be possible to make the front mudguards (not skinable) to be colored at the same time as the roll bar?

Is it possible to make the left half of the skin not a mirror image of the right side?
This is very annoying when the skin contains large texts, but also for numbers

I'm working on the skins, but a little bug appeared.
I think it comes from the right side of the car which is too close to the left border of the skin.
by mapping the car the game takes a piece of the opposite side

I made a default skin that I can edit once the bug is fixed.

excellent !
all the skin was now éditable and work correctly.

my "Bob Cramer's skin" is now public

dont change the size and position of elements please ! this is just perfect

very good mod

some bugs to solve though ...

very good work !

3 (small) downsides:

I think the field of view of the interior mirror is too narrow.

the generation of the skin template is to be totally revised ! (see the stacking of a transparent wireframe on a shaded view below)

and unfortunately, the performance of this car is quite low compared to the standard GTI.
but it can also allow, during a race between friends of different levels to balance the forces.

very good feeling anyway, I hope it will be quickly approved. it's not "just another JDM-car" it's really very immersive

hello, i had a problem testing the mod this morning. on a head-on collision, the front of the car went into the passenger compartment and my view was blocked by the deformed bodywork.
I also had the impression on the outside that the length of the car had reduced.

when i ran a solo race of GTR (including three mods) to see what would happen, the same thing happened with an AI that slightly hit the rear of the previous car. on the replay you can clearly see that it is unplayable in the inside view, while the AI continued the race quietly.

congratulations for this very cool mod which is very well balanced with the "basic" GTR

congrats !
your car, in first version is very good
can we have the possibility to make skins ?
with some aéro and some body options, for various looks, your car become just perfect
when the slicks tyres hapened ? i think they exist in the 60's ... but i agree whith you, the drive is more fun whith road tyres

THANKS IN ADVANCE GUNN
exporting the wireframes is not my competence, so in the meantime, I will work on a black mask that can keep the colors for the 2 versions of RB4 without spilling out ... and extend the colors of my old skins so that they work with the old and the new version of the software

thank you very much, i you
i think i go to hask somebody in my team to breef me in "LSF éditor" (and in french, because, whith "Google Trad" my english is awesome, but i can't learning whith vidéos in english )

hello Master Skinners
in version 0.7 of LFS, the RB4 has been redesigned.
the consequence is that all the skins of RB4 which used or emphasized the elements of the bodywork have to be redone, or to be updated.
in the game's data / skins_dds, we can find the new default skin and transform it into jpg or png 2048x2048 to shade the new skins ....
but for a precise job, and to paint "without spilling over" the redesigned bodywork elements, in different colors, new "wireframe" are essential.

I manage with Photoshop to skin correctly, but I am unable to do it without a wireframe ...
