I've already moved over to Freiburg (a nice town near the Schwarzwald, great for mountain biking ) and will go on to study physics and sports there (becoming a teacher later on). Still three weeks to go, so I don't have a timetable yet.

I wonder if they do heat up the tyre rim and the air they put inside the tyre as well? This would help to bring the whole tyre up to temperature and not just the rim.

Any news on the project?

yeah, but the passengers in the backseat don't have that much space... and it can't catch a lx4 kit-car....

Btw: I think I've seen the cockpit of Eric's Mitsubishi 3000 GT before somewhere.

We're already discussing the topic, take a look here:

Well that's the future of LFS. We know they have already tested karts and buggys, so why not bikes, bicycles, soap cars, dragsters, monster trucks, rallye cars, ect. Basically LFS should be capable to simulate everything that has wheels.

That's because of a restriction in the media wiki software, the first character always has to be a capital.

The LFS Wiki is now available on http://manual.liveforspeed.net/

Thanks Vic! :up:

Nice, thanks!

The "Nightrace" and "MRT5" videos by Joe Cool are true classics. Get them here:

Nice, but the clothing doesn't look like the typical racing fan outfit.

Ah, finally a release date - christmas 2007

When you are already on a server you won't notice it. The problem now is to find a server and join it.

Edit: Too slow...

Uups, sorry.

those were good times for F1

Good times for F1 and motorsport when dozens of drivers and hundrets of spectators were killed? illepall

Quote from Becky Rose :

it's fairly obvious the FerrarIA have decided to let Michael win the championship in his last year

So as a team owner, would you decide otherwise? What's more realistic? Massa winning the championship or Schumacher winning it? illepall

Quote from csimpok :

And I think that the option to adjust the temperature of every part of all the tyres would be extremely unreal.

Every part of the tyre yes, but what about a setup option to set the pre-heating temperature of each tyre? I think this option would help hotlappers as well as being realistic - I'm pretty sure that you can set the temperature of the tyre heaters in reallife as well.

I tried something in a hex editor and ended like this.

Btw, a nice proof that LFS is really realistic. The car didn't move at all.

Wow, we really DO need a new LFS patch.

To be honest I see no reason why such a combo would work better on a low spec PC. I ran the dedi on a Pentium 90 Mhz with 64 MB RAM and Windows 98 installed - it worked without any flaws. I doubt that you can manage something like this with Linux and an emulator.

No, it's not possible. And please don't ask Scawen to port the dedi host to MS DOS. You could have asked him this question 15 years ago, but not now. illepall

Well, I think you could just take the stuff from the setup guides of the LFS wiki:
http://wiki.lfs.4players.de/index.php/Car_Setups

What about the compromise to start all hotlaps from the pits, but with pre-heated tyres? This would be my favorite.

Yes, that's the problem. You need to find the right place to cut the replay as well as creating a new header. I only wrote that it "should" be possible, not that it's easy.

But to come back to the initial discussion. I think that for a first version of LFS-TV it would be more than enough to be able to watch the race from the beginning. So we'd only need a program which streams the temp.mpr from the server to the clients - nothing more.
