you only get this issue with controllers or wheels. it's when the driver is crap and it merges your triggers or pedals together into one long axis and forces you to use the throttle and brake combined... the fix is usually a long winded 3rd party driver that would be glitchy and otherwise hasslesome to fix. with the XBCD 360 0.25; i can't even use the clutch in lfs, even if it shows up fine in the setting tests. so now i am stuck with the merged axis and microsoft driver
awsome! speaking of that, we should copy and paste every good thing about every other racing game together and try to smooth everything out... or just try to convince polyphony that our game is superior and would beg the devs to merge with LFS
i think that it wouldn't help the realism much but it would be more fun, knowing that you mastered a REAL track, and that with a pedal set and lfs's Uber-physics, you actually know about performance driving.
i hope
i remember an episode of top gear where jeremy tested grand turismo against reality and he said that all car sims are still video games and therefor shouldn't be used to compair cars in real life. I honestly hope that LFS would prove his statement wrong!
^ROFL, just keep pressing right...
but you would have a friend do that, or else you would be too sore to race... and another mod would be: to have the ability to TYPE the values for those kind of things...
make replicas of real tracks, just change the scenery and throw in a few random detours and pits off the main ring... brilliant, i should get a million dollars...
so? you use a controller or a wheel or some sort of analog device to steer, who is it going to hurt if we make the steering sharper? the keyboard racers? PfffffT!
well someone DID say that there was a correlation between crap and the phys- hold on, sorry wrong thread, i got it from the nurburg thread http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=9988
but yeah... ok, i mean, just sacrifice some stuff and we can hopefully get real cars and tracks if the devs enable free mods...
^i hear about xbox live a lot it's the NW of the US it's where microsoft is based in, and i have a lot of reletives that work at the microsoft HQ.
but no, i don't play xbox live, i don't even have an xbox, the closest thing is an xbox 360 controller i bought for lfs. it's the best controller(not wheel or anything else) for racing games since there are 4 analog controls, i use the right analog stick(usually used for views) for clutch.
but with the evolution comment, i was trying to comment on how people would [rather have no conflict with other racers then have mods], -rather- [than have a loosened community with a bunch of crap mods floating around then have some good mods that are good along with a real physics system; making a game that would trump GT5].
and those games like rFactor doesn't have a bad engine because of modders, but because their engine was crap, period, if people want an easier time driving or have an arcade like driving experience go play drift city. people chose lfs because they want to learn about car dynamics. i know i did.
yes, this is a joke, but stunt driving is apparently becomming a sport, believe it or not.
It's a fact, but the thing is some aspects of this stunt driving can be used in racing, such as someone mentioned earlier where you would be able to control your car althought you "lost control" of it.
dude... what's wrong with adjustable suspension, just imagine you have a freely moddable suspension system, as typically, a suspension system is what you should first invest in racing
as my point says, it gets weeded out as it goes through the community, you don't need to hire a guy to "cavity check" the mods. the community would praise or put down, and please don't tell me "it's to much for the community to handle" if you do i have only one thing to say to you...
well it sounded like one of those "vets of lfs" someone mentioned earlier, who would threaten to quit if modding was introduced to this game. people play the game for it's physics engine not the graphics. the selection of cars has to be improved A LOT. and by a lot, i mean at least a scene. I know that that's asking a lot but look at GTA, i thought those models are of good quality, but there is a sea of crap floating around. the crap is inevitable, don't pull that ever again for an excuse, because crap is what you get when you give the dev jobs to the public, but the pay off is teamwork which makes it a lot faster, the original devs made an awsome engine for the physics, and we are all playing this game for realism of the dynamic modeling. they gave us suspension tuning, now, allow us to do engine and bodywork! just have it be like real events where you are restricted by boundaries, not have a 20 some car to choose from and have a boundless server.
