@ Chrisuu01: My apolgies man. That was the last thing i wanted to happen in that race. (me causing an accident). After that i even tried to give you back the position..

But well it was the best race i ever had in lfs this year... I could be the highest climber if i didnt got disconnected (from 12 to 7 and catching the 6th) and i was using the baby setup with weak brakes and 30% fuel =D

That's what i thought, making an engine that allways stays upright?

Gonna test the set now. i just came home from a relaxing day, because the morning of saturday i crashed my bike (a 125cc) the guy thought he was racing and started closing in on the apex of the curve, i was inside, he was too fast, i almost hit him at the side, i pressed the front brake too hard witch left me on the ground =D but very boring...

round 5 im completely in.

About the tyre squeal: Yeah LFS's default one is much better, but i use a BETTER one than =D i think you can find it on miscelaneous addons... (its soo nice that i sent it to my email and my ipod xD)

About the sounds: Well i thats what i said in first post. But when we talk about the LFS sounds with CSR, im with you Velociround. CSR detail sounds are much cooler to use than the engine sounds, i say that, because, personally, when i use CSR engine sounds to complement the LFS ones, it does sound nice, but looks like theres a car BESIDE me doing the sounds, and not my car...
And the LFS engine sounds arent that ugly. they give alot of info for a sim and the do sound natural, and act as they should on most (if not all) situations. The ONLY problem i see with them is the quality of the sound itself.

BTW as velociround pointed, heres the bug:

yeah and the shine in Forza 2 feels soo unnatural...
GT5 and Synth sound.

Well I think the reason that the GT5 car sounds are soo lifeless is because maybe they´re synthetized? In this video, The sound itself isn't that great, but, after watching it i realized that upshifts and downshifts actually sound nice! what do you think?

Thats the problem i see with some of it, when people accidentally or have to go trough the grass to avoid certain situations.

Actually what you said cleared it all, thanks.

I think he meant that, LFS IS realistic, but now its more. but by saying he is realistic, he cannot become more realistic since realistically speaking the aim is the realisticness. Therefore im high.

Well honestly i don't understand about licensing stuff.I think it would be sad allowing scavier build a real life car into LFS JUST for marketing purposes and not releasing it to the public...

EDIT: by marketing purpose i meant, to be used only at the event.

That's a nice, hardcore idea there. but there wont be no distinction about who is intentionally shortcutting or if he spun in a curve. And imagine that, people pushing eachother's to the grass so the others can ge a penalty, giving them the advantage.

They already made the car in LFS. Why would be any licensing issues left?
And i think that even creating a racing version of the Sirocco, it would run on its own class OR the GTR class will be reworked to match the Racing Sirocco's performance.

I think you mean auto-clutch. Disable that and try again. (Well, he said "let the clutch out - i suppose it means "disengage the clutch)

Good idea deko but then all the servers would need an active person watching every car maybe?

And the +30 seconds penalty wont work i think. its time increase, nothing that will make the driver really "pay" for it.

Or, do it like a vote:
Driver goes off the track, triggers vote - Press 1 to penalize driver (like a kick vote).

We can mix the first time warning with the vote system to apply a Drive trough second time and disqualification third time?

Excelent idea.
Maybe:
1st time = Warning
2nd time = (if 10 minutes or 5 laps havent passed, else it resets) Drive Through
3rd time = Disqualified

Either do this linearly (even if the guy did the Drive Through, next shortcut is a disqualify) or only allow disqualification if he hasnt done the drive through?

For the spinouts: IF he goes tru the shortcut and he loses a position, remove warning/pealty/disc.
that way you can check if he did on purpose or if he spun out.

It was a good experience, even though the race didin't had much action, i felt i was really "racing" if you know what i mean.

But damn, race started i got 2 positions... on the 5 turn i didn't braked early enough, leading me to the grass. amazingly on the LAST lap i got 6th!

Was fun, cant wait for the next round.
