the 4870 looks nice, 1g, but with an HDMI adapter how can it pass sound, doesn't it have to be straight out of the card for that(HDMI carries great sound by the way). but regardless if it does or not, i really like that card, very good for the price! If a still ran at 1024x768(which i plan to only because it fits my tv nicely for my eyes) with all graphics on, best textures, best everything, how many frames do you estimate i'll get? 8400gs-4870

thanks for the help guys, couldn't find those prices anywhere!

i was looking at that nvidia card again and there's no way its gonna fit, i got a tv tuner real close to my 8400gs and there's not too much room.

i was looking at the card you posted, but no hdmi? I don't get it, that thing is so tits.

I had nooooooooo idea they were that cheap, my friend said i would be looking at 500+. damn well that sounds good to me, but i don't want to jump into this, i need some other opinions. but thanks a bunch for the link, im saving it!

well when the new track textures came out i realized i needed an upgrade! right now o have a hp with vista 32-bit, intel core 2 quad Q6600 @ 2.4 ghz, 3g ram, 8400 gs hooked up with hdmi. im running it at 1024x768 @ 75mhz, with everything on i get a good 50-60 fps. it suprisingly looks great with hdmi, but i thrive for something better! I'm no comp expert so what's my best option for let's say $300 and what results will i see? thanks a bunch, i really apreciate it

random thread....but lfs definitely needs some "new" in it, although that's why we get new patches and the forum? the part that keeps me here is almost unlimited customizations, the only thing you can't change are physics(close enough for me) and shapes(i wish), i even have topless girls burning out on a wall in fern bay, what more can you ask for

did you make the aging marks yourself? it looks sweet, nice detail!

o well it was just a thought cause i always drift so i use the paddles to look around and i always changed it just because g25 is a six speed, never thought you had to use them. almost got a chance to be more lazy

you must have missed it, they have an awsome h shifter that has 8 gear slots and you can get a 4,5,6,8 speed boot for it, and even one for triptonic. you can get a lot of customizable stuff for it, i just ordered one with the carbon fiber shifter knob and all the boot options. no leather but there cheap and seem very nice. im pretty happy my g25 shifter broke lol! thanks for the link, you saved the day!

or were you saying i can't use h patern in game with f1 cars?

just click it and save it in your skin folder but it's not for the xrg, but don't quote old posts, especially from the first page...lol. and i saw your other post, don't be so demanding, be polite. and if you ask for that much stuff no one will help you out.and there's a bunch of s15 stuff already, look around in miscellaneous addons. and don't double post. just a few pointers

o that makes sense. thanks!

im a little confused i put them in my dds and nothing happened, aren't there suposed to be skins too?

http://forum.racesimcentral.com/showthread.php?t=293044

the one with the network cable works so nice and it's the only one that actually makes it realistic with 0 sound, but i screwed up and had to use the foam(works pretty good). And thanks for the help, i think i might get the act labs kit, it's got 8 gears so i could keep my paddles as look buttons even if im in the bmw!

wow i feel like an idiot. it's the mask your right, i've been without a pc for a little while i forgot. thanks a bunch for the help!

that's what i thought but master skinnerz updated the xrt kit and the blank skin has shadowing in it now so every time i try to tidy up a skin, it's darker in some places. hopefully it shows up but it's not a big deal.

i have a feeling were gonna hear a new one, but he didn't post anything so i wouldn't ban him unless there's evidence. maybe he didn't mean to say that....lol....:munching_

the new pro kit has the blank xrt with shadows and that defeats my purpose for using it, i just throw it on top of my skin to make it look clean when i'm done. i can't find it anywhere and i just got my pc back from hp with no files

i was wondering if anyone had the old patch Y xrt pro kit from master skinnerz laying around, the blank skin is what im really looking for. thanks in advance

i just checked again and it's all there but for a while i was having the same problem but only the botton 3 were out...but now none of them are detected:weeping:. I tried reinstalling everything and getting the latest profiler, everything. I think i might have to move on to an alternative. U guys know about any shifters that work with g25? and thanks for the feedback i missed the chip on the bottom!

today i decided to follow the tut. on how to make the g25 shifter quiet......was so happy, it was completely silent and felt real...but....now it won't go into gear or if it does it's in the wrong place. i took it all apart a bunch of times and everything seems to be fine. Has anyone come across this before or does anyone know what the problem might be? i would really appreciate the help and i hope i don't have to loose the gearbox!
thanks

i wouldn't say that, it gets better and better in almost every aspect. we just need to adapt. for instance the xrt wheels are lame but at the same time it makes it look a lot more like a stock, low hp car. it just gets more realistic, i love it!

since this got bumped here is my new pair.lol and those seats were nice, they look funny if you stretch them out for patch z so i don't have them anymore....

same.....

well a faster and better car is way better then a better looking track and graphics...
yeh i love patch x, i want s2, perents wont let me get it, wich is the reason i drift on x, i might buy s2 for me and my friends using a servay site wich said if i refer 30 people to join i get $2500 free to my pay pal, im gonna do that and buy s2 so that way i dotn have to spend money and my perents wont find out

what website is that? lol

once again i never said i was trying to take it away. i have no problem with it, i drive it every day! i don't care if demo users drive it and i never said they were breaking any rules. I just wanted to know why they like the xrt over new features in newer patches? im really not trying to say anything bad about the xrt or patch x demo users, i'm just curious

i was just asking what people thought. wasn't trying to start a fight.. wasn't complaining... wasn't trying to take it away... not crying about anything. just made an observation and wanted to ask a question. If anyone would like to give their opinion on the subject, that would be appreciated but if this thread is that pointless than close it. no harm done
