People have long forgotten this is called the LFS Photomode Competition...
It used to be a competition about making an LFS screenshot look as realistic as possible. The theme was just a guide line where as the edit itself was the important part. Quality and perfection stood above artistical creativity.
Unfortunatly very few people today are willing to spend much time to get something done properly. There is too much focus on the originality and content of themes.
Just yesterday I got to know of his decease... What a horrible thing to happen.
According to people who knew him he was not only a very special driver and highly technical enthusiast but also a brave person willing to help who ever had a question for him.
This is a terrible loss, I wish all the best for his friends and relatives. :worried:
Is it that bad with old people using clutches in general?
I always thought it was like that just here in eastern Germany because the older people living here learned driving in two-stroke engined cars, which of course stall much easier.
A classic ... among other youngsters who use their rear wheel drive cars to plow over some lawn?
Oh and I'm not saying BMW drivers are this or that... but you're driving an E30 320i with Borbet A wheels and offroad suspension fitted - yet telling something about his hairdressers car that by the way puts out over 100 HP more from the same displacement as yours.
It's a ticket to visit a 6 hour endurance race on the Nurburgring. (I presume you wouldn't have to buy tickets unless you wanna sit on one of the stands of the GP circuit.)
Don't you think that's the reason for why there is in fact no RB4 GTR to date?
Look at the XRR (it's interior design is the latest of the GTR cars). There are no back seats, no passenger seat just ONE for the driver. Who said LFS GTRs stick to Le Mans series rules?
That's utter bs... Look at most street cars in industrial countries... compact dimensions, usually FWD.
Look at rally cars - designed for gravel roads or off road driving, therefore mostly equiped with AWD.
Look at road racing cars... light weight and maximum cornering abilities... therefore RWD dominates.
For a specific use there's one kind of drive train that fits best.
Okay, for the FXO GTR all wheel drive works also... but look at your average setup for that car... will it take corners as fast as an XRR with 50:50 drive split?
You can't say there are too many RWD cars in LFS because this game is about realistic road racing mostly and RWD seems to be the best compromise between drivability, weight and performance.
I don't think that's the biggest problem. In my opinion the biggest issue is lightning in this picture. The background is a very dark sun setting, the foreground seems to be taken from a bright sunny day.
That certainly doesn't fit. Look at at the armco... the sun is right behind it so there is no way it would be illuminated.
I cannot imagine any vehicle would be supplied with AC but I can tell you for sure most if not all cars will have a 12V system, whereas for bikes 6V systems are/were widely spread.
