It's not invented to protect the grass is it. Most of the situations I can understand why it's there but I agree with this other person that it doesn't need to be a sausage fest on every other new or updated LFS world.

(Like the famous KY3 chicane for example).

We need 200 minimum (cruise).. Luckily there is a big parking lot behind.

You might be right.. I thought this patch had .VOB files included but I now realize only the DCon zip has this... :/

No.. But I will send an email later this week with server log to LFS dev team so they can see for themselves how bad it is. Can't post it here. Too many IP addresses.

I wonder why, on demo ... On test patches and now also with 0.6R there is this massive amount of JOOS - CAR connections again. Unbelievable. And loads of them keep retrying as they don't seem to understand they can't connect to a pure server with their bloated LFS install.. Meh.

It's not the holy grail, but I think the dev team realizes that themselves also. But it is a good start of the year. Hopefully demo usage increases a bit so I can rewrite my InSim camera control functionality, for the last and final season of CityLiga which is going to start in two weeks. After that, it is also understandingly stopped.

Input field is better then sliders (or both) but yes, requests for colors.. But it can be simple request, how it turns out with programming I don't know.

Tested Q13 for some (demo) races now. Overall opinion is good about it, I like it also.. Racing with keyboard myself at the moment but then I have more demo feeling anyway. And eehh well.. It's easier now, but this is good.. Blackwood stays most of the time the demo track and demo shouldn't be so tricky with kerbs/sausages.

Curious when those LED panels become controllable and autoX addable. These tiny yellow/black speedbump circles I like too Wink

PB reset is no problem.

Same old discussion.

But I can understand this content refreshment before tire physics update. Logical to select Blackwood also, because demo has it as the one and only track.

Oh, Poland flag is upside down.. Sry, thought you was from Poland. Hhmm yes Indonesia is a difficult country, afraid you have to stick in the old situation there is not much what can be done.

Quote from ltras23 :I found your statement hard to believe...
I'm running on the lowest graphic setting and display as possible. Seems my day is over :/

800x600? For me that is hard to believe. You cannot expect from LFS that it stays 15 years behind, I hope?

You don't need to have the newest hardware but come on.

Quote from neonmateo :
Runned Open and Closed layouts and got really decreased fps..
Time for new pc I guess Shrug

Your computer according to your profile : e4500-GF210

Really? I am using second gen. Intel laptop with no issues. OK with 675MX 4 Gb card but any desktop from the last 6-8 years should perform better?

My screenshot is not meant to show off but 8xAA 2670QM on a 6 year old laptop @1920x1080 .. I am just like; what?

edit .. Oh wait.. This Geforce 210;

I am sorry but those numbers are really bad. It's not difficult to find a better graphics card for just a few Kuna's I guess? It's all you need. http://www.njuskalo.hr/ Smile

Quote from ltras23 :Something scared me about Blackwood is that low spec demo player wouldn't be able to run LFS in a convenient fps...

demo has no open layout and texture resolution has no impact on fps (only on memory).

1) Is it an idea to prevent T1 demo ramming? Preventing drivers to enter the grass just before T1?
2) What about the massive cut at the end of the straight?
3) This "sausage" is not needed in my opinion. Can ruin someones race while there is no benefit to be on the grass here anyway

No I know, you meant hex triplet input which can produce 16M colors but I guess Scawen will rate this as overkill. I never looked in detail to these rim/body sliders though, anyone any idea what the color depth is of this system? How many colors can be made? It's not 24 bit / 16 million is it?

So type eventvwr @Run command and search in Windows log for the debug message of LFS.exe and please post the dump here.

It could also be an incorrect install of Direct X9 by the way. LFS is one of the few games which makes use of DX9 libraries. (Although Rfactor and Iracing do this too).

Hex would do it, just right-clicking on color and put value there.

Current system is ANSI ... 1970.

You have to post debug log from windows log but I think it's your video driver which is wonky.

Quote from Scawen :"I want to race but there aren't enough people online". Seriously, if you want to race, get online! Big grin

They do but everywhere else but LFS. This is how online communities work, a selective group of people decide what they do (leaders), followed by others. And these others attract again others, which, you might guess.. Attract another group of others.

But, leaders don't see potential anymore in Live for Speed. Not talking about myself now, I am talking about the aliens, the racing teams, the racing legends. Logical, it is the last eight (!) years the same old story. The focus the very last years wasn't even on content anymore but unexpectedly on a very expensive niche VR market. At the same time the concept of online racing the last years became more and more common, there are a lot of new environments to choose from if you fancy some online racing and sadly it is not Live for Speed. Yes, LFS has pretty realistic car handling, even with the stone age tire physics but people want to drive real cars, real tracks and not having the idea they drive on the surface of a snooker table. (Ever tried AC? At least you get the idea you drive on a road surface there).

If no major content changes are going to take place (cars/tracks/tire physics) this situation as what is happening the last years will stay. Only keeping a handful soon-is-something-big-going-to-happen believers, behind. And cruisers, cruisers are OK.. But not really the real deal, they think driving towards each other is a good idea.

It can always be worse, quiz...

Quote :became a notable example of vaporware due to its severely protracted development schedule; the game was released in 2011 after fifteen years of development.

without using a search engine, what game is this Wink

Hmm pretty strange, your AA options also changed. You did something else too what you are not telling.

So compjoeter says it all nowadays? License should be £0.50 for me then.
