Are you saying that when i'm playing crysis, I'm really controlling a super soldier sent back in time to help americans win the vietnam war... and aliens were accidentally sent back in time w/ the soldier i'm controlling? My hands... i can't wash the blood away

i don't remember, but i think if you press the "<" button, force feedback will go in reverse. I'll go check myself ingame

nope, that didnt work. try using the search button untill you get a reply. this can't be the 1st time a thread was made asking to reverse ffb.

What steering wheel do you have? LFS doesn't use special effects like GTR2, it uses more realistic ways to get force feedback. Rfactor also has a realfeel plugin which makes for some great force feedback as well. It probably works in gtr2 as well.

Most of the tracks in LFS are pretty smooth. compared to gtr2.

i just built a computer and I put it together about 10 hours ago I can run Crysis on high. Very high is okay, but not as smooth as i'd like it to be. i dont like under 30fps. 1280x1024.
Other than crysis, nothing else brings these parts below 60fps at 1280x1024.

Quote from Scrabby :an ATI 4870 (crossfire or a X2) would outrun those suckers

But, the 280's cost much more

you should get 2 280 GTX's from Nvidia. and get the most expensive DDR3 memory! Also, get a case with very expensive cooling.
ほんとに高いですよう

Quote from frokki :In case if someone is about to agree with this...

Hell no! :arge:

LOL spot on. I guess crashing into a wall at 180mph and having a little deformation is spot on.

Quote from Calvinaquino :Yeah, its more noticeable in laptops, they make a missile sound, scares me. but yeah LFS is cpu friendly so he plays better the more hertz you got.

don't you mean cpu intensive?

yeah. the Force feedback lock doesnt change, but the game doesnt recognzie more than the recomended amount. with the f08, you can steer past 450degrees, but at 270degrees in either direction from the center you will reach the car's maximum steering lock.

I just went into the Porsche menu and changed the lock every time i change to a new class of car.

if you set steering compensation to 1 and you use 720 degrees in the porsche controls, then LFS will only detect the recomended lock.

Yeah somebody sent me the firmware update and instructions. I was pretty sure Ifollowed them correctly... Now when i look in the device manager, no drivers show up, and it won't let me use the inf files in the program files\porsche folder.

whent it was working, i turned damping and centering spring off. also, i used the reccommended steering locks. you may like more or less force feedback. I wish i could get the drivers working properly

I updated the firmware, and now I am missing option to turn down centering spring, damper, and steering lock. the normal fanatec menu is gone I installed .56 drivers over and over and tried different things, and i just can't get it to work

Has anyone here successfully updated the firmware?

Well, 2.0 has wider bandwidth. This helps alot when using dual cards at higher resolutions. You have to have a proper motherboard. x38 or x48 to take advantage of this.

the 4850 is roughly twice as fast as the 3870. it also consumes about the same amount of power as the 3870. I'll be buying either a 4850 or a 4870 towards the end of july.
