Quote from lEl E Talon :

in the end, we are getting probably 2-3 years worth of a few guys constant hardwork to make the game better and better for only 12 pound. the price of a pack of smokes for an s1 lisence. if anything i think we are ripping the devs off.

eh, methinks your exchange rates are a bit muddled.

12 pounds is more like $26 AUD, so its a bit more than a pack of smokes! smokes here go fer about $10-15 i think (i'm a non-smoker so i dont care). We have fantastic state & federal taxes on ciggies to help pay for the health bills.

But on that point, $52AUD for a game is pretty darn good value (especially one that keeps getting updated like this one). If it were $12USD, well that would be a different story as the yank dollar is down the toilet at the moment.................

I said both cos Driver B shouldn't of hit A in the first place, but A shouldn't have come all the way across on the second turn.

BTW, +1 for bringing back the original theme music!!!!

Ditch this new intro, its bleh!

A lot of these people dont seem to realise how easy it is to cook a factory standard clutch. Just try some proper drag lane quick launches and your standard clutch is lucky to last one let alone two runs.

Wot the bluddy hell is the "LFS Object suggest" movie about? It's doing my freakin head in!

Woohoo!!!

+1 million

Ummmm, all you arcade wannabe's, heads up, but just to let you know, LFS is heading in the same direction it has been since day one of its inception. This is what LFS was created for. It hasn't wavered and has continued to improve. Sorry to say, but as more realistic features are added, it's gonna get more difficult to drive, just like it is in real life!

stfu u stupid american it is true this patch is so f****cked up

Seriously mate, you make me ashamed to have a Australian flag next to your name. Please get banned.

You've gotta love squidheads critical appraisals of videos dont you?

I just read each thread to see if he's replied, I dont even watch half the movies! LOL.

Oh My God.
At first I thought, "hey, he's gotten so desperate he's ripping off BashTV!"

Good work, now go get a haircut and clean your room you grot!

If I remember correctly, I read something about it on either BH Motorsports or Race Sim Central, looked interesting, downloaded the demo and was hooked ever since. This was just before S1 went final (about patch E i think was my first version). I got my S2 licence the day S2 went beta!

"predictive steering"!!! made it "easy" for us back-then keyboard drivers. I think that was dumped at about Patch G or H or something, it actually made me lose interest for a while (but then right back into it with the updated tyre physics).

the tree at blackwood chicane

there was no carpark

the different pitlane at blackwood with the little "rest area" after the pit exit

added a d/l link of the original file in the original post.

Quote from Mp3 Astra :

Brilliant! Made my day to be honest.

Oh, by the way... where's Bash TV? I was looking forward to another episode!

Well I could say where's Ep.8 of The Blame Game?? Hmmmmmmmm???

A new episode will commence production shortly, just gotta pick the race out of the few replays I have stored. I have lots of ideas, but I have forgotten most of them already!! (I should write them down I think).

I was going to use a waltz track for this, but I didn't have one on the PC, and I couldn't be stuffed going to search for one!

OK, for all you hard at work AI testers, here is a little break for you. Just a quick minute out of your lives, have a bit of a laugh. Just a quick vid on the shortlived draglane bug.

I call it - The Dance of the UF1000

A video of the short lived bug where AI drivers would do some strange things on the drag strip. Synchronised dancing!

NEW D/L link:b http://www.mediafire.com/?b4memmxgxxd (40mb)

I'll put it elsewhere if people want it.

Nothing fancy, but pretty amusing!

Hey cool, thanks for the heads up Scawen.

Would be awesome to test out some new super-duper-hyper game and give some feedback knowing I will be doing it for the greater good..........*cough*.



P.S. No. 1!

Quote from niels1 :

Oefff losing points. Sam he didnt rejoin becus he came acros finish in same lap with 0,39 difference . Hehehe doing some practise Nelson ??

I would say that he has joined the race during the first lap (after it has started). The points system allocates points based on the number of cars which start the race, and if it is only one car, then anyone who joins after the start (on the first lap), gets minus points if they finish 2nd or lower.

Thats what I reckon

Quote from Matt0snap :

Uh....No you can't.... The only place that you can use the racing line ( hit 4 on keyboard) is in singleplayer... You can't use it when hotlapping or online...

You playing the right game? Of course you can use it online. As to its use when trying to pick your way through 20-30 other cars, well, thats another story

AI also has no idea how to look after their clutch. If it happens to heat up, they will continue to mash the accelerator until the clutch melts.

Quote from Mp3 Astra :

Heh, I've been there, just swap "missus" for "mum" and "hands waving about" for "enthusiastic head-tilting".

"Head tilting"???????? WTF?

Quote :

You can see them. Press ctrl shift to see the usernames above the cars during a replay. I think that's what you're looking for.

Aha! So it does, you learn something new every day!

As for guest commentating, weeeeeeeeeeeelllllll, I do have a few ideas.......................

Well that was an interesting way of starting yet ANOTHER "need new content" thread. Seriously, what was wrong with posting in that other one on the exact same subject?

Nice try with the "player numbers down under" title.

Do a google for a program called GetDataBack NTFS, it got all my data back when no one could access my second hard drive when it died. Windows refused to recognise it and even so called "experts" said it was a lost cause.

It scanned the drive, found 99.9% of the data and I was just able to copy it to my master drive. Might be worth a shot for you buddy.

Thanks all for the positive comments, makes me want to do a second and better episode (one with no ovals, just for Kurent :razz.

To MP3Astra: you are uncannily correct, I probably was holding my voice back a bit as most of this was recorded late at night, and didn't want my missus to walk out and see me yelling at the computer screen and waving my hands all about. Next time I'll do it when no one is home and just go nuts. Also, the total captured files for this project alone was 3.89GB from FRAPS recorded at 640x480 at 30FPS.

Funnily enough, I think it actually was watching The Blame Game that inspired me to do this, so there you go. Its your fault!

To Zoomy: I was tossing up whether to use racer names or LFS usernames, ended up going with racer names as replays dont save usernames that I can see.

To Becky: Yes, yes you were. Glad you liked it. Making full use of the BnJ rules!!!

Quote from kurent :

This is your mystery project?? Commentating on races? I must say I'm kinda dissapointed, but this is only the first one I guess.

And fly thru of WooblyOval? You must explain the complex corners!

I did WobblyOval as my first one as it was the easiest to do to be honest. It was all pretty much an experiment and I am always still learning how to use Vegas, so if I do any more, I hope they will improve.

Anyways, I expected this sort of comment from you Mr Kurent sir , in fact you reminded me about something I was going to say during the commentary which I completely forgot about. Just a slight dig about you and your absolute love of ovals .

Well, here it is, the first ever episode of Bash TV.

I hope to be bringing you broadcasts of races from the CTRA Bump n Jump servers. Now, let me first say, I am NOWHERE near as good as Becky and her crew so dont go expecting STCC quality production here!

Also on that note, this is NOT an "official" CTRA sanctioned broadcast, so any views expressed are mine only, not of CTRA or its officials. Its just a bit of fun really!

I reckon it turned out quite well, apologies for the relatively mid-quality capturing, I hope to upgrade my PC soon to get better footage.

Anyways enough ramblings, here are the links:
