Quote from scoobyrbac :If I may ask whats a rotary powered car?

Hope you're joking mate...keeping it simple:its a particular type of engine which doesnt have pistons which move up and down,it simply has a sort of cilinder with a strange shape(kind of a fat triangular section)which rotates.So you(the crankshaft) dont have to convert linear motion into circular.Also you save on valves(there arent any,just ports).Has a excellent power to displacement ratio and is really compact and light...wiki for more

Quote from Bob Smith :Open up LFS\data\language\your_language.txt, search for the line 3a_etl_inli and change the following word to "Rotary" (or whatever that translates to in your language). Voila.

Quote from Mikkel Petersen :And then we could have big speakers and built in car audio like you suggested in another thread.

You dont understand a single thing,the car audio is there to give additional power,moving the car just by its vibrations...

Quote from 1303s_vortech :...Sometimes I have the same trouble...
I don't have a clue about it.

I did a complete reinstall of the OS wednesday.I didnt have any problem with lfs before that.Now it just crashes and goes to desktop.Its a generical error.Windows says that an error has occured and nothing else.
If anyone knows more,please reply

Strange error

Since yesterday i couldnt complete a race due to a strange problem.Im in the middle of the race and suddenly lfs freezes for a couple os seconds and then i get an error message.It just stops working and tells me that an error has occured in lfs and that's it.When the game stops to work as i am in desktop my wheel goes all to the left and if i try tu turn it to the right it makes opposition.I have to unplug it.Any suggestion guys?You think its related to the wheel or to lfs?
Edit:as i unplugged the wheel,it could turn normally as obvious,but then i plugged the power in again and it still went all to the left

Quote from lerts :i just tested: if i use mouse plus pedals it whill show a W

in my opinion mouse+pedalsbeing faster than ff wheel is an urban legend, just as locked diff having advantage

an urban legend made up by some fast guys who want to disorientate rivals

Again...i think im right to say that a faster(or the fastest) way to race doesnt exist.It could be mouse,wheel or keyboard.Just because you can drive one of these and not the rest,doesnt mean they arent good.Its just a matter of getting used to it.Practice and practice,wheel is surely better when it comes to simulate,but who knows...some people may think the opposite.
So according to some fast guys,i should change to mouse+pedals just because they tell me its faster,while it isnt?Where did you hear that?I think that any racer is happy with his control system,otherwise he would have changed it.Its just that they are faster THAT way rather than YOUR way,the end.
Also remember that certain ways of driving are slower by design.Think about people using G25 with manual clutch and H shifter...if you want to do things properly you get a wheel.If you just want to be the fastest or do WR anything is good as long as you master it.

If you're crap at driving you cant expect to win a race by just having a good set...then if it's 10% setup and 90% skills or anything else...i dont know,i just race.Im not gonna do any statistics.
Oh and by the way,a little bit of punctuation is really going to improve your questions,its not difficult.I think primary school are way enough for the job.

Its not how fast you could go...some people are way more used to mouse than wheel and are faster than me,altough im not an old snail.Its all about realism,you cant buy a serious sim like this and then play with the mouse.But then some people could have space problems on their table...so its fast as much as you can make it work properly for you.Mouse is not for me,it is not realistic or confy to race with.As long as it works for you thou..
That finger pedal idea is coolMaxibon(btw your nick is the same as an ice cream name here...).
