Quote from Khann :

You'd think this community would have learned that by now

Just take the promised release date, multiply it with two and it will be about right (except when it says "early").

Quote from Scawen :

I did open that at Fern Bay, though you do take off going through there... I guess that is a good suggestion for BL chicane as well. I could make them vanish, config makers can just add some barriers if they don't want people going straight through.

Yes please! Some retro tracks without chicanes would be cool.

Quote from Scawen :

One thing we discussed was the possibility of just calling the software "Live for Speed 0.6A" and forget about the Alpha / Beta tag.

Good decision, it's finally time to make this step after 4 years of alpha.

They're called developers.

4Players is a localised-sales point for LFS and has been approved by the LFS devs. Like bmwracer67 already said our price is currently cheaper by about 1 euro.

Thanks for the report. I've fixed the shortcutting bug.

Fixed in Z14.

I'd like to see a comparison video.

yep happend bufore, and will hapen later too (why don´t I have a good one?! It looks so funny!)

Did you try using the lowres texture option? This saves a lot of memory.

Ok, so here are "real" reflections from GP4 (2002, using DX7 afaik):



Looks pretty impressive. It shows that you don't need DX9/10 for such stuff, LFS could do it with DX8 as well. Although I don't know if a rewrite of the graphic engine is needed.

Reflections are for sure possible with DX8. Just take a look at the cars or the lakes at Blackwood and google for screenshots of GP3/GP4 which both had superb rain effects and reflections using DX6/7/DX8 (and even software mode).

Edit: Found a pic of GP3 (from 2000, using DX6):

Watch out, Germans invading the forum.

How do you get those massive FPS gains? Can you check if LFS now uses both cpu cores with windows 7?

Quote from G. Dierckx :

I tried to run lfs on it and it runs at 30fps so it's playable!

That sounds good. Do Force Feedback and online play work as well? What are the specs of your Mac? Do you know of a free software which does the same thing?

Nice, but you could show some onboard views too.

Quote from zeugnimod :

German.

I don't read it anyway. After 3 years and 6 months, I know where everything in the menu is without reading.

How true. I could set it to Chinese and would still be able to join a race and change my setup.

German (well, I did the translation).

Try to rename the cfg.txt to reset all settings in LFS and see if it helps.

Quote from Jakg :

ORLY? iirc I have Scawens address and phone number on my HDD from somewhere I found on t'interweb...

You can even find the address on www.lfs.net. The fanboyism seems not to be such a big problem yet.

So how would you translate it? I think saying Lizenz Status is better because it's "License Status" in the menu.

Thanks, fixed. Any more typos?
