Quote from Rtsbasic :I often drive a 2012 Fiesta 1.4, and the pedals are pretty unlike every other vehicle I drive. The throttle is fly-by-wire - like most modern cars, but doesn't feel linear to use. And the clutch (Even when new) sits so far high up that I sometimes hit my knee on the wheel.

You get used to it though And they're nice cars to drive really, just different..

i own a 2012 1.4 fiesta and i cant really confirm that...from the very beginning till now (20k KM) everything was fine...
the clutch start gripping somewhere in the first quarter and is completely in once u release half...
the gas pedal is pretty much a setup thing i guess...i dont like it either, since for once at certain RPM i have more accleration with less throttle...which is, well wierd.
must ask the dealer at some point what he can change about that

Quote from [RCG]Boosted :
Im fine with everything (kind of) except for the CPU which really is a bottleneck.

bottleneck for what?

performance.
(almost) everything is down to the cpu as of now, sometimes the ram is bit a low, but thats the exception.

Racer X NZ feel free to link me up, so i can have a closer look.

What CPU to get?

First of all, no im not talking about a new PC
Ive got an old PC which currently has this setup:

CPU: Intel Q8200 @ 2,33 GHZ
RAM: 4 GB
GPU: Nvidia 465 GTX


Im fine with everything (kind of) except for the CPU which really is a bottleneck.
So obviously i do have the common problem, lack of money.
I do have a new planned PC, i just cant get it yet, need quite some more time.

Meanwhile i wanna go and replace this POS CPU () with something quicker.
I looked around and im not too sure...the Dual Core CPU's are ok-ish too as it looks.
Since i dont want to spend hundreds of Euros, getting a CPU for an out of date socket.

Are the Dual Cores an Option?
Or should i not bother with them...if so, what Quad can you suggest?
Only CPU's under 100€ please
Also thought about OC'ing with a proper Cooler and Fan i guess even on this thing 3 GHZ should work well...
But first i wanted to check out my other Options before i accidently send this thing to Hell

If you made it this far down, leave a Reply and let me know what you think.

Quote from Jerome240sx :
2.) The steering is funky. No matter what I do, it will not align. It also won't register as 900* rotation. Both in game and on my wheel I have the sensitivity set to 900, but the in game wheel spins as if it's at 600* or so.

Any help?

there are no cars in LFS with 900 deg steering.
most have 720.
so set it to that (on any road car) and it should align fine.

Quote from jibber :Not if you play it in hardcore mode and with good people in multiplayer (people who complete objectives and help each other when someone is stuck). There's always epic moments, real good fun, nice teamwork. I think i've clocked well over 100 hours and am still enjoying it. You're doing it wrong...

true...we should meet for a bit of fun some time.

id guess even the poorest ppl would be able to save up 24 pound in 3 years time...thats 2 cents a day
either way, more cars are avaible in full version, as well as more tracks.
there are mods who do have a drift point calculator, and you can customize the performance via the intake restriction...yes not higher but lower.
not a tuning game, but a race sim.

Let us see your cfg.txt to check if the settings are correct.
[RCG]Boosted

use this CFG.
See if that works for you.
Unzip first.

BTW, i set MRT as a car now, since i didnt know which one u meant with mt5/6.
to change that, simply open up the setup.cfg and edit the line /CARS=XXX where the XXX represents the car.
put a + (XXX+XXX) if you want to allow multiple cars.

cars shortcuts:
Road: UF1, XFG, XRG, XRT, RB4, FXO, LX4, LX6, FZ5, FZR, UFR, RAC
Sequential: FBM, FOX, FO8, MRT, XFR, XRR, FXR
Paddle: BF1

what he means is the fan starts spinning, its using more current thus reducing engine power...but i doubt that u even lose 1 hp that way.

Quote from maxis123 :non of lfs cars use 900° so why use incorect setting..
make lfs profile,specific game setting. and change rotation as you chanange car.
basic rule: when you turn your g25/27. or what ever full turn wheel you have,
wheel in your hands(g25/g27....) MUST turn identical as is does in lfs.
if it doesent you have bad settings.

u can set wheel rotation in lfs as well...thats what i always use.
btw, i just noticed that it doesnt make a difference...
that sucks
