Quote from Bob Smith :

I've never been in a diesel that bounced off the limiter. Not that we have diesels in LFS, I'm just saying that soft limiters are more prevalent than you might think.

i dont argue about that.. just that i have ALMOST never been in one with a soft one

Quote from wien :

I doubt Scawen can (or wants to) do anything about problems in Wine. Wine is just one giant hack and it's a wonder it works at all. If you're having problems with it you're probably better off taking it up with the Wine devs.

or MAYBE it´s something that he can reproduce in win xp/vista/7, with the same comp specs? ever thought about that? it MIGHT be a problem with his hardware not liking something in the new testpatch.. we dont know, you dont know, and the poster sure as hell dont know.

it aint a HACK in any way. its an emulator, not a hack..

Quote from Shadowww :

Yes I do need 100 tabs.
Why render? because I don't leave my PC on @ night and 1680x1050 render really takes long.
You have x86 system - that's the thing. x64 apps use more memory.
And 100 tabs are separated to ~10 windows - I have 8-15 tabs in one FF window usually.

how many apps do u have that is "x64" as u say, or 64-bit as i say...?
i mean, FF aint 64bit, dunno if 3dsmax is either..

well the renders take even longer if u have that amount of windows open so.. well..

Quote from Shadowww :

Se7en 64.

Apps - Steam, firefox with ~100 tabs, and 3D Studio Max 2009 rendering something in background.

Well in that case i LOL @ you... do u need 100 tabs at the same time? why render and have 100 tabs open? etc etc.

i have 2gb ram, Windows 7 x86..

i render sometimes, i play games (lfs, crysis, j2 hin, css, bioshock) i have NEVER gotten the "low memory" message on this rig
the thing is; just because you can, why do you need to do 100 things at the same time? if u wanna render + surf (100 tabs) get a second pc or something... still dont see how all of that can take up all of ur memory tho :/
maybe ur doing it wrong?

Quote from UnknownMaster21 :

haha I did not meant ABS, I just writed that for suggesting different brakes in each car

yeah well that ABS answer i gave was to the other guy :P

Quote from The Very End :

ABS is the same as brake assistance, but on the paper it's not the same. The test patches has ABS settings in setup screen, and then we can say that we have a propper ABS system in LFS

for me, the ABS in lfs is "proper" dont think we will get an ABS system in LFs that works better tbh..

and no, brake assist and ABS aint the same thing..

i like the improvements that came with z13, but still, for the love of god, dont understand why ABS blocks wheel-lock-ups when standing still..

i would like to see a setting where u could change the minimum speed @ which the ABS starts working. i mean.. when going forward/backward, when coming under a certain speed the wheels lock. but not when standing still, braking hard and trying to do a burnout...

oh well... every little piece of improvements is still improvements.. thnx Scawen!

Quote from The Very End :

Not sure if LFS needs more of that stuff, we get ABS soon too, but every little detail is nice (more details to anything is nice). So I guess I give it a +1, alltho I will not miss it if it doesn't come in LFS

I'm pretty sure we already have ABS in LFS so thats not a good argument :P

and what is Advanced Brake System? :O

Quote from Luke.S :

No problems on Windows 7 Build 7100 so far.

+1, no problem at all

The only "problem" is that my FPS got upped w/ 20 :P

Quote from Joris :

Did you adjust wheelbase, trackwidth, centre of gravity, inertia,suspension geometry... and most important did put a labrador in the back?

yes ofc i did... well no, as i didnt find all of those things in the first place, and seconldy i wrote "the handling may not be exactly right".. it has the power, torque and such as the real deal tho.. + gearing..

Quote from danthebangerboy :

and a bigger cpu than he does.

i dont think the SIZE of the processor has anything to do with it

but yeah, lfs runs on pretty much anything.. if u can emulate Windows and run LFS on a MAC then it work on every piece of machine.. (almost)

Quote from Shadowww :

Tweaking car with LFSTweak is allowed

i can try, dont remember exactly how to make it sound and be like a TDi, but will try

EDIT: got it working! same weight, gearing, engine size, and such..
rename the *.TWK.COL to *.TWK only :P

not sure of the handling... it might be close but i dont promise u anything :P
the torque is of by 20nm, and its base is 100rpm too low.
the hp is @ 141 and lies @ 2100 or something... couldnt get it better tbh :/

Quote from Shadowww :

Edit: XFG, not FXO, as you can't remove turbo on S2 cars.

Why should we need to remove the turbo? :O

Quote from BigPeBe :

Yes they have.

Well i have never been in a car with a revlimiter as dull as the one in LFS..
Every car i have ever been in has a "bouncy" revlimiter, which in mho is more realistic then one that just limits, without anything happening

Quote from remcees :

i think i got the reason - and god bless me that i could drive 1:11s on blackwood!! - mygaspedal is broken, so i wasnt going full throttle... :s

hehe... easy misstake good luck in the future!

Quote from remcees :

i have to start after chicane, and i end 50mtr after the bridge, with default setup i cant reach over 182 - 184. you cna try it if u click practise in the startup menu, after you do that golf lookalike you get to struggle with FBM. youll see u get stuck

Well i havent done any of the testing in-game, so cant try it. but exactly where do u start? on the last screenshot i started just after the chicane, and still was OVER 190 when passing under the bridge..

EDIT: Just did the test, called "HIGH SPEED BRAKING", and i had no problems with it. Just hold the car @ 196 when u go past the tirestacks, and then push the brakes all the way down.. worked for me..

I dont really get what the problem is.. i did 200+ just now when trying, after reading ur post..

EDIT: WOW! didnt see that u had to start AFTER the chicane.. LOL! then its another thing will try that too tho..

EDIT2: Tho i still dont get the prob :P did a 190+, even after starting where the asphalt changes color.. on the start of the straight... hmm.. pls tell me exactly where to start, or what the problem is :S

EDIT3: See attached screenshot..

i have the csr program..is it possoble to make it alone?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=05VP9fpPMSA&NR=1
its for the XRG.. and its an RB26.. hope u dont mind..

i liked the video, tho i loved the fire.. what program did u use for the editing?

Quote from Bob Smith :

Also, in either of the three modes, the dampers on the new Scirocco are actively controlled, so it will never be the same as the real car.

Well, if the LFS devs has been working on the car (and i mean only the car, which i dont think) for the last 5 months, then im pretty sure that they have made improvements to the suspensions in LFs to resemble the real deal. If not, then its just not a REAL car, in the way im seeing it

Quote from Bob Smith :

No doubt the ESP and TC systems aren't going to exactly match what a team of Volkswagen engineers have spent months tuning either. Within the (current) constraints of LFS though, the devs are aiming to get the car as close to real life as possible.

As above, i believe that they are going to make it special by incorporating all the real stuff in lfs.. and i really hope that the car is something special..

Quote from GabbO :

I´m not even sure homebrew is even possible on DS, Nintendo isnt really open too these kind of things.

And such an applications would require big efforts, as this isn´t a simple local application.

Yes they cant take homebrew. Just need the right firmware and such...

Quote from hazaky :

And why the hell of god names do u need that? ... Cant see the gauges? Or just need some fancy stuff?

For the same reason people wanted Virtual LFS DASH maybe? To get the things of the main screen so it looks cleaner..

okey, so im guessing this is just completely dead then.. to bad.. so long VLFSDash :/

Then let me bump a 1 month old thread with a big "+1" to the original idea..

It wont make u faster and it cant be counted as a cheat, as all it does is make u stay at a certain rpm at the start, or whenever u want it to.. how can it make u faster? if u spin the wheels at the start cause ur flooring it, wouldnt u spin them at 4k also?

just so stupid, if someone wants a Launch Control, let them have it. I think it would be a fun thing to play around with.. just like that RPM Limiter thingie someone did.. just a fun thing ffs..

Quote from ars_pt :

P4 3.0Ghz FSB 800Mhz
2GB RAM
Geforce FX5200 128

i had almost the same setup, tho i had an PCI-E slot, so i had an EN7300GT in it

but yeah, the hd2600 aint a bad card..

Last edited by Feffe85, Wed, 15 Apr 2009 13:38. Reason : wrong card name :D

if im not wrong, what he wants is tow setups..

I downloaded the source, but cant get it to load up all of the "project".
It wont load up the "UserConnection1.Dsr" when opening "Virtual_LFS_Dash_v0.2.2.vbp".

+ there is multiple places in the code which VS6 wont allow compilation of..

Thats sad as my programming skills are a little rusty :P
Would have loved to keep this program up-to-date :/
