I've experienced a little problem with the latest version (the one with the working shift indicator/top speed etc.)... In essence, the Turbo Pressure gauge lags quite badly. The other gauges work smoothly.

I'm on Win 7 Ultimate 32bit, if that matters. With the previous versions, it all worked like a charm...

(p.s. could you please make also widescreen resolution, e.g. 1280x768? That would be really nice =D )


EDIT: Problem sorted out now, IDK how, but it works xD

Learn to drive m8, i dont understand why people need tweaks to race on lfs.

Using a tweak on Single Player Mode doesn't mean that he will race online. So, no problem at all for you.

Quote from 5tag :

That is currently the latest LFS version. Though, there is no tweak available for patch 0.5Z25. :worried:

Actually, there is. It's called LFSTweak3 and it just needs an updated configuration file.
See the instructions I posted

Quote from sxt200 :

i have tried too but getting message about i need to unlock lfs? wtf?

I see in your screenshot that you are using LFSTweak 0.4.1, that obviously says that it cannot find out which version is being used because it's outdated. Try downloading LFSTweak3.

Quote from ChiKisT :

I have the latest version of tweak and it's doesn't work for me!
I use z25 patch.

So you have to use the configuration file that shaun463 posted.
You download the .zip or the .rar, unzip it and then load the file (lfsconfig_Z25.txt) from LFSTweak3 by clicking on "Preferences" (bottom of the screen) --> "Configuration file path" and then select the file in question.
Then you close all, start LFS and then start LFSTweak, change the values (remember that: Cartype #1: LX, RB4, FXO, XRT, RAC, FZ5; Cartype #2: UF1, XFG, XRG; Cartype #4: F BMW, F XR, F V8; Cartype #5: UF/XF/FXO/XR/FZ5 GTR; Cartype #9: BMW Sauber; Cartype #10: MRT5. Single Car settings don't work), then you go into LFS, (re)select the car you tweaked, and then... ENJOY!

Quote from 1993weeman :

Cheers, I am planning to play guitar for it. We have 3 or 4 guys and 2 girls doing it. Am not singing because i SUCK really bad at it. But one of the girls can sing quite good and one of the guys can kind off sing. I like the sound of Radio GaGa by Queen. That would be quite amazing. I could always try something acoustic. Am still learning the guitar but one of the guys said he will help me a lot and he is very good on the guitar. Its on the 18th of December so i have a good amount of time

Not that I'm trying to flatter you, but...
You're five or six, and you have a singer that can't really sing (I mean, "kind of sing" isn't really singing in my opinion) and a guitarist that's learning to play the guitar. I'm sorry, but in a month one can't learn how to sing or play a song by Queen... I mean, Freddie was one of the greatest singers in the world (and IMHO he still is), and Brian May is one of the guitarists with more taste in music.

Try something simpler like some Green Day, Nirvana, Red Hot Chili Peppers, things like those (not THAT difficult to learn, and which have a great impact on the crowd).

In my band, we started (looooong ago) with Basket Case, Waiting, Holiday and Boulevard of Broken Dreams by Green Day, and those songs worked well and we could learn them in a really small time, even if we weren't THAT good.
Then we went into some Guns N' Roses, then we changed genre to Progressive Metal (Dream Theather FTW) and finally to that mix of different genres that we call Alternative Rock/Metal (our own songs). But we started like you, with lots of ideas, lots of good intentions but not much knowledge in how to play an instrument.

So, in my humble opinion, you have to start from the basics, and one step after another arrive where you want to go.
I wish you all the best!

Quote from trolika :

I got a problem when i press start this error comes

Are you using Z25 and LFSTweak 0.41? Download the latest version...

Quote from tigerboyz :

OK, so is this right?

WITH: bugged
WITHOUT: fixed

Correct. Thank you very much!

Quote from tigerboyz :

Thank you for the detailed bug report! I watched the replay and put my debug up while you drove in the replay, it never said the shiftup2 for trying putting in 2nd. I also test drove on your replay and I had no problems, this is very weird!

Can you go into the configuration GUI (right click icon, configuration) and see if it matches the screenshot I attached? If anything is different, please tell me. If it's the same as mine... then I'm stumped. I'm going to upload the latest version here as a test (only the LFSshifter exe, so keep your old one), could you test if this version still does it? It has a new thing in the debug called "offset", and it should not ever go under 0 or over 3000. It goes up with throttle and tells it how many more RPM to wait until shifting, to make shifting points seem more dynamic. It's a new feature since 5.5, I don't know if this is the cause.

Actually I'm going to upload 2, one WITH the offset, one WITHOUT. I'm going to put them both in a zip; they should be extracted to the folder you already have. Please check whether the problem happens in both of them.

TEST VERSION LINK: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?qtjwudzzjna

(LFS forum attachment thing still won't accept my Autohotkey exe files, and says they're either invalid or didn't pass the virus test)

Yep, the configuration GUI matches exactly yours...
Looking at the offset in "LFSShifter V5.6 WITH", it stays at "0,00000000" but all is as usual, in the "[...] WITHOUT" it stay at "0" but... IT WORKS!

Quote from tigerboyz :

For everyone having this problem:

Sorry, it sounds like something I might have bugged, but I don't know what it is because it's not happening to me. What version, 5.6? Could you go into the debug GUI and tell me if it says anything like "shiftup2" or similar while it does it? It should say it at the very bottom for a small time during the shifts. Also this is happening while sitting still and shifting into 1st? Does it happen from neutral? Does it still happen once you get going a decent speed?

Also if you haven't deleted/overwritten the config folder from older versions, please do that and let me know if it still happens. I included a config folder, it's recommended to use that one and then configure it how you like based on that.

Version: 5.6, fresh install.
LFS: Z25
Setup of the XRG: "AT", the one you posted.
When it happens:
*Still (N selected) - Stays in N
*Still (R selected) - Stays in R
*Still (1st selected) - 1st, 2nd, 1st, 2nd...
*Moving with accelerator < 20% (1st selected) - 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th while going at almost the same speed.
*Moving with accelerator 20% < x < 60% (1st selected) - the car goes nuts (1st, 3rd, 4th, 2nd, 1st randomly).
*Moving with accelerator fully opened (1st selected) - the car goes like it's in Automatic Mode in LFS.
*Going backwards - OK
Debug: When it changes into 2nd, it says "Mode: shiftup2" than "Mode: shiftdown1" and it changes into 1st.

I upload an .spr so I hope you'll understand better...
I try the all the situations, hope this helps...

Thanks in advance, bye!

Works ok in Italian, but I've noticed some mistakes with the translation.
For example:

"Per usare questo software, devi accettare le seguenti condizioni :"
should be
"Per usare questo software, deve accettare le seguenti condizioni:";

Then, in the paragraph that begins with "I contenuti DEMO...":

"Non devi cercare [...]"
should be
"Non deve cercare [...]"

Then, in the end, there's:

"Prego cliccare il pulsante verde "accetto" per continuare, o il pulsante rosso "esci" se non accetta."
which means
"Please click the green (?) button "Agree" to continue, or the red (?) button "Exit" if you don't agree."
and then should be
"Prego cliccare il pulsante "Accetto" per continuare o il pulsante "Annulla" per non accettare."


When you uninstall it, it says:

"Stai per rimuovere Live for Speed [...]"
and that should be
"Sta per rimuovere Live for Speed [...]"

And, finally:

"Puoi comunque decidere [...]. In questo caso potrai eliminarle [...]."
which should be
"Può comunque decidere [...]. In questo caso potrà eliminarle [...]."


Other than that, it works well!

It doesn't really work for me... I start LFS, the ATS, all the options are ok, I put it into 1st and... it jumps to 2nd, then to 1st, then to 2nd, then to 1st etc.
What can I do?

Nice one! Worked like a charm here (Win7 x86 Ultimate), no problems of any sort

Quote from vale46rossi :

does tweak 3 actually work with Z25?
cause all i can see is weird adress lines

Yes it does. Download the latest configuration file (use the search function for that) and then in LFSTweak3 click Preferences --> Config. file path.
For me it works well, but of course Single Car Tweaks don't work =/

You're welcome

I just love anything from Godspeed You! Black Emperor.

My favourite songs are Sleep, Storm and Rockets Fall on Rocket Falls.

Quote from [RCG]Boosted :

actually its a cinquecento.

Actually, you're right. I didn't see the square taillamps

In my defense, the two cars look almost identical.

Quote from amp88 :

Is that a Fiat Seicento?

Yep.

Quote from Shotglass :

try with some reading comprehension next time
putting a system designed to work as one of a 2009 vw car on cars that are clearly modeled after cars made in the 80s to early 90s doesnt even remotely achieve the standard of realism were used to from lfs

In the Wikipedia link that ldriver posted, there's your answer.

Quote :

The German firms, Bosch and Mercedes-Benz, had been co-developing anti-lock braking technology since the early 1970s, and introduced the first completely electronic 4-wheel multi-channel ABS system in trucks and the Mercedes-Benz S-Class in 1978.

But, as I saw the "citation needed" flag, I searched more.
In the Mercedes Benz W116 (S-Klasse) page, I found this:

Quote :

The most notable W116 was the high-performance, limited-production 450 SEL 6.9 which was the first production car to use a completely electronic 4-wheel multi-channel anti-lock braking system (ABS), as an option from 1978 on.

That's not me having comprehension problems, it's just you not knowing that a 4-channel ABS in a car that LOOKS '80s (but could be easily from the '90s) could be possible, if that system was introduced in a road car in 1978.
But that's an XRG/XRT related "problem". The other cars that have ABS are all from the '90s.

Quote from Shotglass :

yes but its not normal for road cars to have modern 4 channel systems with high frequencies in the 80 which if made more realistic would change the effectivity of the abs in lfs a lot

I don't see how on Earth someone could say that the RB4, the FXO and the FZ5 are '80s cars. And the XR could just have an old-fashioned look.

Please, stop complaining about ABS. If you think you don't need it (because of your supernatural skills), just TURN IT OFF.
If you think that's just an advantage for the others that use ABS, and you notice that they can do a lap faster than you, than TURN IT ON AGAIN! (WOW, Genesis quote!)

But please, ppppllleeeeaaase stop moaning!!!

Quote from Stefani24 :

Argh...I'm having such a stupid look on my face (Well, that's the case on every photo, but still).

You were in Italy, weren't you? Let's guess... Rome?

Quote from Shadowww :

It does works with patch Z22 if you edit them in file, not in process.

Can you explain this a lil' bit more accurately, please?

Ok, got it. Thank you very much anyway

I have a little problem...
I've always used LFSTweak with the plain Z, and that worked like a charm.
Now, I've finally downloaded LFSTweak3, LFS 0.5 Z20 and the Z20 configuration file for LFSTweak. It works well with all cars, but if I try to edit the single-car values, it doesn't affect the performance of the car.

I've tried with an XF, selected "cartype 2" and changed some values. Then I wanted to make the engine a V8 instead of a straight-8, and then turbocharge it. I clicked on "Single Car #1", changed the values, pressed Enter, then I clicked on "Apply", switched to LFS and... nothing happened.
The tweak applied only the values I changed in Cartype mode.

Any suggestions?
