Please close this thread and delete it....

Why? I'm just curious?

Quote from Franke :

You don't need a replay.

Come to a complete standstill in the XFG, put it in 2nd gear an apply 100% throttle, then clutch is RED before you should change into 3rd...

YES i do know that is not the way to start any car, but still, starting from 2nd gear never hurt any normal car clutch, as far as i know.

It does, because 2nd gear stand still gives more clutch slip (and therefore wear) than starting from a 1st gear stand still.

For sure, count me in!

Quote from Franke :

Nice work with ALMOST all of the mods in LFS, BUT, if this is the way LFS works with the upcomming Y-Patch, i think i am no longer interested in LFS, The clutch is 100000% unrealistic...

Halløj. Der er en grund til at det hedder en test patch, hvis du kan huske da der med S2's ankomst kom slid på dækkene var dette også helt forkert i starten. Der skal stadig tweakes på systemet osv.
Håber at se dig på banen dog.

In short: There's a reason why it's called a test patch.

Quote from tonyonparas :

Do´h!:doh:
I knew there would be a lot of people complaining about the new car.
I really dont get u guys, it´s only a GAME!
Make better one if u like to.

Nobody is complaining? Actually people in this thread with knowledge about the FBM tries to improve LFS to be more realistic?

Quote from srdsprinter :

My, all the complaining is really saddening. People need to stop and consider the possibility that Scawen thought about your "issues" before he put the new features in the game. He doesn't seem like the kind of person to rush into things on a whim. Once you consider this, I think truthfully you will see that 99% of the time, new features are improvements to LFS.

Test patches and new releases are making the forums such an unhappy place to be.

Thanks for all the hard work Scavier!

Exactly, I was just about to make a thread on this topic.

The LFS community makes me so sad.

Quote from kekkart :

no im moving on

You should definitely send a mail to Scawen regarding this thread. Chances a quite high that he won't see it here in the improvement suggestions forum.
As Tristan said, it's great with some real life feedback.

Quote from NotAnIllusion :

Says the Dane.

I didn't whine, because I know that I'm privileged to live in Denmark. And he is as well privileged to live in USA, compared to be living in a country like fx. Iraq.

Edit: Or did I miss your point?

Edit2: Lol, maybe this is quite a bit off-topic.

yup $40 here in US is a furtune lately specially with 2 kids and a wife that spends money like nothing during holidays.. but if she keeps gettin more into LFS hell maybe it will be easier to convince her... besides.. patience is a vurtue..... and with 2 kids and a wife.. i got alot of it

Seriously, stop whining, you live in USA.

Seriously, stop making all those crap threads! Thank you!

Quote from shiny_red_cobra :

Alright guys, I see your points. But I don't remember having to switch the ignition to off, then back to on when I stalled. I thought you just had to start it again.

As well as with the "press clutch to start engine", the same goes with ignitions for different cars.

Quote from spankmeyer :

Instead of a cruise filter, shouldn't it be titled race filter? Wouldn't it make more sense to sum things under racing and everything else?

Good suggestion. +1

Quote from shiny_red_cobra :

I drove an '89 Celica and I had to press the clutch to start the engine (when it was in neutral). How's that for a new car?

Tristan said it, it's only a couple of years ago since we got it in europe.

Better that the FBM be attracting "real" racers that d0rift0rz, so I think it's fine that they've got the FBM instead.

Edit: And what joen said above.

Quote from FlyeThemoon :

I know i am demo user but i have simply qestion Why this Formula BMW FB02 looks a Formula V8 ?

To answer your question. The Formula BMW looks how it should look like... like a Formula BMW.

Quote from shiny_red_cobra :

After the engine stalls, why do I have to press the ignition twice for the engine to start again? I tried it many times so far, and every time I had to press it twice to start.

Also, when the car is in neutral, you still need to press the clutch to start the engine. Right now you can start it without the clutch.

1. First you turn the ignition off, then on again.

2. I'm not quite sure what you're talking about. It's only on newer cars you have to press the clutch to start the engine.

Quote from livefornow :

this patch is a bad idea there is so many problems half of liveforspeed cant load the game im sat here trying to sort patch but my game does work actaully joke! im not happy :gnasher

Why do you think it's called a test patch, huh? :tombstone

Quote from aroX123 :

-No internet
-Stange gear...(Bad)
-No realistic damage... (200km/h in a wall, a little front damage)

Plzz fix

Are you serious?

Aaaaaaaaaaaaand 696 online users at the forum. I think we will beat the existing record.

I think it's great that they've exchanged the FBM with the XRT. Less drifters, and it will attract more "real" racers. And now I don't want to hear no more talk about that LFS dosen't have real cars.

Omg lyk wtf j0 iz soo l33t how can i b lyk u? Lol bbq wtf roflmao lyk lol lyk ur really awesome dude lol. Kthxbai.

Quote from kamkorPL :

Very good post up there.

I think driving in LFS is very realistic as well. Nothing else comes close.

FYP.

Quote from ACCAkut :

I don't quite understand how the racestart is changed by the new clutch modell. How will it be possible to start the car only with button clutch? In the weak cars like the UF1 IMo its impossible without a pedal.

If you just floor it, it won't be problem. Trust me, right now I drive in a 1.0 litre 55 hp car which weighs 900 kg and it dosen't have a problem with burning rubber.
