congratulations, Geraldine, Scawen and Leo!

Just a very quick mockup from me.

hi Jan,

I like the site, don't stop maintaining the site. Although I don't care about a garage I think the site is pretty complete at this stage.

I remember when skins were mirrored on the car... so you could make one side of the car and the other side was just a mirror (like the Japanse drift cars have in real).

nice application, I think it's perfect to port to Adobe Air in a few minutes so no need for making a projector of it anymore!

wow, a demo racer from Botswana

Any chance I can stay logged in? And after I've logged in can I have a confirmation? Now it says "login" in top corner and it confuses me a little bit because I never know when I'm logged in or not?

edit: and voting on the index page should be nice, now I have to click twice to make a vote.
edit2: well and if I'm asking, a RSS with latest additions should be nice (asking a Netvibes user)

to support you I uploaded some of my best skins. Keep up the good work! I really see alot of progress in the site.

Based on the Flatout2 textures I made this XFG skin.



feel free to use it. I already uploaded it to LfSworld

Quote from deggis :

now that's a real car, some real life liveries would be neat.

you are right, I will see if I can make a real life skin from the pictures

Anathema: nice logo although I think you should go a little easy with font colors. Maybe just color the Live for Speed logo and one color for the rest? The car shape looks very nice, maybe some shadow on the wheels?

I like the site although I'm not going to upload my skins till next features are implemented:

- tags, description (color, sponsors, real/fake, copyright?)
- better download system (save as window, zip?)
- batch upload?
- integration with LfS (Lfs username verification so real skinner uploaded the skin)
- more accessible overview of all skins, I think the thumbnails are too big.

good luck,

I'm testing the free BMW M3 challenge and it's a nice change. Just waiting for new content before starting lfs.exe again.

Steam stopped working on my PC, even after a couple of re-installs. After a while I discovered that PeerGuardian was blocking the connection , but I only use Steam if I want to play HL2/Flatout2.

Wow. there are some really great skins (LX4 and LX6) down there. It was pretty hard to get my top10 to 5 votes.

Besides that there are quite some skins which are very low standard: I would advice skinners to practice a little bit more and look at real life racing cars.

Why are patch X9 and 10 out of the testing patch subforum? Just let test the small group of racers with the latest test patch instead of opening it to everyone... Now we will have endless discussions about the Force Cockpit View

I'm just happy I won't see a pc in the next two weeks (holidays) and let's hope there's a solution after it. By the way: I go with the Force CP view!

wonderful tool! I hope it can have a more sophisticated look but till now it looks nice.

I'm a Flash developer and trying to make a multi-lingual Flash application. I expected a large company like Macromedia/Adobe should have thought of Arabic characters but unfortunately the seem to forgot although Chinese and Japanese is supported

With Flash 9/CS3 there seems no difference in this matter... why are software developers forgetting the Arabic speaking people?

I'm solving my problem by adding pictures with Arabic texts instead of dynamic textfields; heavy but no workaround

Thanks for patch X. I only wonder where the 26MB is going... skins maybe?

Wow that's amazing! Can you make it visually more attractive (round clocks?). Just put it on top of my wheel and have my own dashboard

If you need a tester: I do have a PDA telephone with WiFi/USB connection. (MDA Vario, Qtek 9100) and I prefer USB connection since WiFi is pulling my battery very quickly.

wow! that's a very nice screenshot.

Quote from Krane :

More or less each country has their own format for the license plate, so you'd need N+1 different models for each of them, that would make the price very high. Better option would be a stickers you can glue to anywhere.

I think 2 models are common: the small plates used in US and Belgium for example and the large plates used in most European countries. A small sticker will be the easiest thing anyway but I'm not putting stickers on my car body, it took me some time to get rid of them Just on the licenseplate holder.

Quote from sgt.flippy :

I want a sticker for my car

reminds me of an old idea: a licenseplate holder. See attachment for artist impression

I bought a car a half year ago but since it had steel wheels I first wanted to change them to alloy wheels

It's a Peugeot 205 (1993, 1.1l) but the good part it only ran 50k km when I bought it. So basically it's a cheap car without a lot of maintenance costs. It drives very well and with the new alloy wheels it also looks a little faster

The upper left corner shows the car how it was when I bought it.
