He could try changing network mode (in name list click the TCP or UDP button)

It might be interesting to know if he was using WLAN, tethering by phone or other unreliable wireless connections.

The other person can buy an unlock voucher code and give it to you.
Then you enter the code in your account.

Do you mean actual gift cards or an LFS voucher code?
LFS codes you can enter at your account status page:
https://www.lfs.net/account/status
Scroll to "Redeem an LFS gift voucher"


For actual gift cards you can use paysafecards.
It is the only gift card that works for LFS.
You select paysafecard as payment option in the LFS shop and enter the 16 digits code from the card.

It seems you are already beginning the timed lap with less speed. Maybe see if you can take a different line approaching the s/f line.

When I try to download something it takes me to a store page where I have to enter personal details and choose payment options?

The origins of the 3D parts should probably be mentioned somewhere.

commons.wikipedia.org is also a good source.
You might need to search around a bit but there are some good lists.
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Logos_associated_with_the_automotive_industry?uselang=de
Or just search for "logo" etc, usually in good png or svg format.

I suggest to avoid that sketchfab account.

He writes in profile: "I use free models and radically redesign them."
Just because a model is free to download does not mean it is legal. I doubt he care about that difference because nobody on sketchfab it seems widely ignored.

Also here https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/mersedes-benz-s-class-w221-6b1c0ad55406406a8cf8177dc0a4f2b9 he writes in comments:
"Hi, I rip most of the cars from mods and change them in my program."

comment: beamDrive model

For me that is enough information to think that he does the typical remixing and re-uploaded of ripped content. Maybe not directly ripped by him but uploaded by others, but the result is the same.

He is mixing so much downloaded content, but why does he never credit the page/user where he downloaded from?

Quote :I searched the internet to find any similar topology of the e92 and i cant find any similar LOW POLY with same or slightly different topology

I learnt that this does not mean anything.
If this Black Snow guy is supposed to be legit, then "not finding" what games he ripped from is not enough. Because finding the original sources is super time consuming and borderline impossible.

There are simply too many games and too many ways to alter/obscure the topology.
The way I see it, the models of Need for Speed 3 are maybe the oldest models that could be used (as a base) for an LFS mod. NFS 3 came out in 1998.
Who is going to check the hundreds of games that released in 2 decades? Not just PC games but also all the consoles.
Plus all the commercial 3D modeling companies.

Quote from Silverracer :Surprisingly the only result searching for "creatEffect" in the forums is the follow; which is unfortunately unanswered.
https://www.lfs.net/forum/thread/88054

The error is "createEffect", he missed one "e" when copying from the screenshot.
From forum search it seems related to driver issues and Windows updates breaking something.

I would try to uninstall the Logitech software and install it again.

Compared to original release, this mod now has a different body, different seats, different rims,. it could as well be a different mod.

Credits / list of third party creators is basically useless.
Just names of discord servers.
Not even a username, link or which parts were made uploaded by whom. Shrug

As user, I think you have already found a good solution.
Your description texts are quite detailed, there are links to technical manuals and other sources.
If something could not be replicated in LFS then you explained how you approximated it. Some other modders also do that and/or have good development threads.

When I see such texts then they make me believe that the modder tries to create realistic physics.
It actually seems more useful and trustworthy than just ratings options or categories.

Quote from manolixsvouros :Hotlaps should be an in-game thing.

That is actually a good suggestion and quite obvious one in hindsight.

As minimum there could be a button: "Open online hotlap charts" to open the website in browser. Currently it is not obvious at all that an online leaderboard for hotlaps even exists.

I am not sure if makes sense to re-create all the functions and details of LFSworld ingame.

( In the same fashion: On the setup screen there could be a button to go to https://www.lfs.net/files/setups )

Quote from rane_nbg :This server is closed soon after a user who created it leaves.

Not 100% sure but I think the user who created the server can leave and server stays on.
The server closes when it has been empty for a while.

We do not encourage players to break or violate Live for Speed's terms of service.

Also, please pay BRL 44.90 (ca 8€ or 8$) for 30 days of basic subscription to play pre-mod LFS on our cracked brazilian server.
What a deal. Ya right

How many hotlaps of the 18 ranked combos did you upload? Tilt

I think it is interesting to have a ranking that has been going for so long. Like an eternal highscore table. If it gets changed then old entries get dropped because they are now missing some combos. I do not even hotlap but it would be sad to lose such a long standing history.

Interesstingly, the log shows that each month 100 to 300 hotlaps get uploaded. Several WR and Top 10 times, too.
However, in the HL Ranks only 14 people have uploaded 18/18 of the ranked combos.
Some racers are missing only a few ranked combos but instead they rather upload dozen of other combos.
So the hotlap system gets actively used but people are maybe more interested in the Hotlap Charts, getting a WR or getting into Top 10 on certain tracks etc.

I wonder how many people even know about the Hotlap Rank?
In my opinion it is a bit hidden. Even if you find the tab, to learn what it is about you have to click another "Rank Info" text that does not even look like it is clickable.
It could be shown a bit more prominent.

If new combos get added, I suggest:
1) Rockingham with FBM (There are only two combos with formular cars and none at RO)
2) Blackwood Rallye with XFG (There is no rallye combo. Also it is usable in demo)

It would also be confusing when you read old posts and people are talking to usernames that are nowhere to be found.

Silly and badly chosen nicknames are part of the internet. Embrace it.
I know one old forum that was founded around a shooter game long time ago.
Many people have those typical gamer nicks because they registered as 14yo kids.
25 years later nobody cares the about the game anymore.
Now you see [K!llah]BigGunz or MasterSlayer666 post about what is the best lawn mower or discuss suits and ties. Tilt

LOD2 needs to be fixed, that is why it got unpublished by automatic system:

Among the things mentioned by others, better screenshots would be nice:
The pictures are 1920x1080 pixels but the actual car is shown quite small.

That is a published mod.
The logo is slightly different from the original Seat logo: It is missing the diagonal line.

In my opinion that is still too close to the original. Either it was an oversight or someone thought it was different enough.

A new mountainbike that is at least slightly useful for mountainbiking, will cost more than 300€. I would say it starts around 1000€.
If you only plan to ride in the city or unpaved dirt roads then any normal bike will work. Anything more wild will quickly destroy a 300€ MTB. (spokes and rims snap; brakes are too weak; heavy weight; cranks, seat post, handlebars or even frame can break)

Basically all brands sells bikes in all price and quality ranges.
There are 3 or 4 relevant producers of components and frames mostly come from a handful of factories too.
Cheap bikes tend to have lots of flashy features that appear impressive but none of it is good quality. For example cheap suspensions are heavy, develop play/wiggle and are non-serviceable. Adjusting cheap no-name brakes or shifting is frustrating.

With that budget I suggest to look at used bikes. You can get a nice mountainbike from 1980s to 2000s plus replacement parts for that price.
Certain models and brands are more sought after by collectors because they are considered "classics" so you would basically pay for the name.
Giant bikes are imo good quality but without the cult-factor that drives up the price. If you want to avoid fixing a bike yourself then some shops also sell fixed-up old bikes. In Germany there exists "bicycle flea markets" where people sell their bicycles and the organizers provide some experts that buyers can talk to. Maybe that exists in France too?
