Oval Junkies is a little different. When I'm there with 5 or 6 people late at night here in the states, it's usually not too bad. Everyone is running 31.xx and being very clean. Other times, with a full grid in the middle of the day, it can just be ridiculous...

Also one thing that ticks me off is them saying "Ha ha you can't get any better than 31.99!"

I run that on the default setup thankyou very much.

Then they slurr at me calling me racist stuff.

Heck they called me a N er and im white!!!

Quote from XCNuse :

oh... thats a common one, yea dont join that server,

that server deserves to have bangers somewhere in its name, FM is really bad...

i forgot about that server, dont worry though, plenty of complaints come from that server about wreckers

Tell me about it but its the only server that runs on KY Oval with BF1s.

Its my fav car cuz formula 1 rocks lol.

Quote from Bob Smith :

You can't get your money back, and I've NEVER had bad racing in licensed servers. Admittedly I don't get to race too often atm, but if you're sensible (e.g. avoid all cars servers) I don't see how everywhere you can go is full of wreckers. I know there's not a great number of populated servers during the American evening time but if it was as bad as you were making out, there'd be more threads on this issue.

You want to see a bad crasher server? Goto (FM)Oval Junkies.

I have done alot of races and im tired of the stupid people who keep crashing.

Even in events I goto they crash into me from like 20 feet away and blame me so wtf is the point?

When I bought S2 I thought "Finally I will be able to race with more people and none of those noobs from demo!"

Boy was I wrong.

Theres more crashers in S2 than there are in Demo!

Even when im trying to do a serious race I get people right next to me,when im moving in a straight line mind you, turn into me,crash me up, and blame me for being there followed by being banned!

When you play demo you get:


Apparently the makers of LFS haven't played with most of the LFSers.

Also I guess most people don't have reputations to maintain

Is there a refund button on the LFS website because I REALLY want to click it right now.

Quote from Turbo Dad :

did you calibrate properly in game as well ?

Nope didnt try that lol.

Just did a min ago and now it works so im happy!

Quote from Crashgate3 :

It would mainly be aesthetic (sp?) to have bumpers and the like fall off, but it would be fun dodging the debris if you get a T1 pileup in front of you.

Yes it would and its that kind of realisim i want from LFS.

Also them adding racing trucks and regular trucks would be sweet.

Heres a tip: stay off walls..

lol jking.

I noticed that too.

Hmm...Maybe in the next Patch they will fix damage issues...


Or maybe make it so your fenders and hoods can fly off if you are hit hard enough.

Most Sims have that feature as a basic.

Its the FGT Rumble Force one.

Me and dad are gonna try to take steering wheel apart and fix it internaly.

And yes the sensitivity is whacked also and I can't adjust it.

Also MZG I can't buy a new one because theres no places around here and parents don't want it shipped from mail. Security stuff on expensive things is what I mean anyway.


Also I used that calibrating tool and it worked for out of game but ingame it still doesn't line up right.

I can't change the sensitivity of the game for the wheel though.

Quote from subhumanspunk :

thank you all for keeping me entertained during a boring day at work =] now that that's been said... i think i'll go back to just reading some more =P

Yes because reading is educational.

Reading Playboy doesn't count sadly so I doubt you will be learning much XP.

Quote from thisnameistaken :

First you demand our respect for being a freeloader who's been playing the demo for over 6 months, now you demand the right to reply when some illiterate cretin makes a thread that precisely 0 people cared about in any way which was locked and forgotten about the same day.

You're all "Me, me, me" and it's tiresome, and every time you get a response you don't like, you spit out your dummy and declare that you're never ever going to buy S2 because we're all such a bunch of meanies.

So I said fine, piss off then. The offer still stands btw.

Ever hear the phrase "If you don't like what they are saying be quiet and don't post there"?

Maybe you should learn it.

Okay..So I got this $50 Thrustmasters racing wheel for LFS. It worked fine for a while untill recently where it wasn't centering the steering when it went back to default position.


I got the thing in Florida at a store about 10 hours away and I cannot return it if its busted.

Also what I was suspicious about is a small ratteling when I turn the wheel like if some plastic is chipped on the inside. I tested it and it was working good acording to the thing it gives you to test it.

Please say there is an easy fix to it besides taking it apart because I cannot do that.

You can create ANYTHING if you set your mind to it!

Seriously your gonna need gurders, pavement and the occasional police chase XD

Quote from Dajmin :

Is it possible the pedals are being treated as a digital control rather than an analogue one? That would cause full brakes on a press, which you don't want.

Omfg...

That helped dude it fixed it zomg lol.

Also found out with it the harder you brake the less steering you have....damn i feel like a total noob.

Meh thats what I get for not being experienced with a Steering wheel I got for $50 at a Comp USA lol.

You guys arnt understanding what i ment..

I apply %10 brake power (barely pushing it) and I can't steer peroid.

My dad even showed me in his truck that it turns with brakes on anyway.

And I wanna use brakes while going into teh corner because im used to that way in other games..

Not sure if anyone else has this (donno what to search for anyway so) but i recently noticed this with my racing wheel:

When I try to go into a turn and I push the regular brakes and try to steer my wheel goes in the dirrection but it doesn't turn the car untill i let off the brakes

Is this a glitch that's fixable? Cuz even my dad said real cars don't do that.

Well he says "No license protection: No s1 or s2" so I figured it worked for demo.

I run it and it says "Sorry you need either S2 or S1 to work LFSTweak".

Im a demo racer right now but I have it set to english.

Does LFSTweak work for Demo? Or am I gonna have to wait a week before I can use it?

Wow...Guess the Search Button was in use at the time of this?

Yeah cuz I mean if you look at crashes on the street EVEN at 50 MPH most crashes are deadly and end up with the car totaled.


Don't even get me started on Drag Jousting in LFS.


Great topic BTW!

The other horn files are .wav but these are .raw.

Does it make a diffrence if its in the same folder?

You know what LFS needs???

The Peterbilt Truck from Duel



Thatway you can do Juggarnaught in the Carpark and teach them noobs not to mess with a sereial killer truck!

You might be in a server that doesn't allow XRT's...Ever think that?

Well my team is getting anxious for the skin but since it seems like theres 4 diffrent people working on their own versions and nothings getting acomplished i'll just tell them theres not gonna be a skin.
