Want to a protest against Atian (lfs account:Bzzyq) for a stupid move on lap 7. Time stamp around 10.17 when we are going downhill approaching that tight right hand corner he tries an impossible move trying to go on my side but fails totally by ramming me and I was just lucky not needing to retire, suffered heavy damages though which slowed me down quite a bit for the rest of the race. Somehow feel these kind of moves should be penalized so racers know those kind of moves are a nogo.

Quote from Yazan0Alothman :

iirc the release of blackwood industrial was 2018
i believe releasing all these graphics and time etc updates is better than losing the fans

I believe that's the plan, it is just not finished yet, updating South City is still ongoing and Fern Bay still to be done. Updating the tracks takes time when there is only one person doing the job. All we can do is to wait and hope Eric to progress in his work without any extra surprises in the development process. The day night transition is an extra feature which I think is mainly looked into by Scawen and as such does not affect Eric's progress on tracks. Then there will be the tyre physics update which we don't know how much effort that will still need to have it included in test patch releases along with grachics update for tracks.

Race 1: lap 9, timestamp 12.50 and 13.03.
jereloco #80 hits me J.A.Katila #04 to side when diving inside to a corner and does not brake in time. This slows us down and other cars catch us, then next corner again jereloco brakes late, hits cholover who then spins me to a wall, car wrecked.

Never thought that would be a problem. Some years ago had problems with the usb connection from pedals to pc and needed to use serial connection option from pedals to wheel. It was actually a HW problem in the pedals and got them replaced against guarantee.

Anyway glad u figured it out and can enjoy again with a wheel

When further exploring the fanatec support page for ur wheel there is hint to check if firmware need to be updated after driver installation from wheel properties page, have you done that ?

Just word of causion here, when firmware is updated there is limited backward compatibility towards the driver version. At least that is the case with older fanatec wheels like I have.

Recommended driver from Fanatec web site is v336_beta.

https://fanatec.com/eu-en/racing-wheels-wheel-bases/wheel-bases/csl-elite-wheel-base-v1.1#downloads

Mayb try that after trying with some other program than lfs like Jamie said above.

I have an older Fanatec wheel for like 6 and half years already , Forza Motorsport CSR Wheel with multiple driver and even firmware updates and lfs has always detected it, also other racing simulation titles like AC, Raceroom and Dirt Rally can detect the wheel and Fanatec CSR Elite pedals which I also have.

We saw very good and competitive racing in majority of the races and team WCL is very satisfied on the high level of racing along with the fun factor although it may have been slightly more serious than earlier seasons due to the sponsorship stakes involved.

Quote from Sobis :

I was wondering where does the unspent money go to, for example 2$ from my reward as 5$ is the minimum. I hope you get at least some of it to cover the running costs over all these years .

There will be continuing sponsorship offered by team WCL also for next year in RTFR events and the "saved" prize money is kind of given out end of next year most probably according to classification in RTFR and RTFRXL series. Saying probably because it is not yet agreed and decided on what prizing model the prize money will be shared out.

Quote from michal 1279 :

Maybe unusual thing, but I'd like to make a protest against myself.

End of lap 3 or 4, don't know exact time.
Katila was in 4th with me right behind him.
Entering the penultimate corner (before pit entry) I made absolutely stupid and unnecessary maneuver onto his inside that forced him off the track and into the lamp post, pretty much ending his chances for any good result.
I know this was not any kind of serious race event, but I feel like I totally deserve some sort of post-race penalty or points deduction for this...

Don't be too hard on yourself Michal. It was unlucky touch and because nature of the track (not real race track, on which real track can you see those kind of road edges like in BL industry area ? and lamp poles just beside track ?) the outcome was worse than in normal race track.
Even after this incident I could have had decent end result but was also victim of those magical walls, sobis is mentioning couple of posts above, on lap 12 which forced me to pit early and repair fully damaged left front suspension. Summa summarum, just forget it and let's move on.

Week19 stats are a mess. There was some earlier years runs in stats already when layout was loaded and now they have remained in the top list printed in VGP web site. There are names in top list who did not even made a time in this years layout. You can see the old runs with totally different split times.

Same seemed to happen this weeks wk20 layout. There is some stats from runs in earlier years when layout was loaded.

@Niklas Falk aka BlueSkies
I recommend you get some help to ease up your schedule pressures for running this championship before actual results cannot be anymore sorted out.

Oh man

You have bumped up over ten years old thread and posted a video including vob mod which is against rules in official lfs forum.
I would remove it silently before some moderator takes action

Quote from JSHuiting :

It is most definitely a car

To be exact, it is a 3D model of a car which does not exist in real life. Basically a series of nulls and ones which are seen on our retinas through clever programming.

I admit, above is as stupid comment similar to JSHuiting's one.

But in the end, does it really matter what certain non-real lfs cars are based, they are what they are and that's it

As stated many times in this message chain it is more of a problem in demo servers. Also like Rony said, server owners are responsible how they are managed.

One way to help on this matter would be to assign a password for the server. The password could be shared in server owners forum after registering to it or on dedicated discord channel or some other meaningful way which is not too easy but not too difficult either.

This method would suit of course the best for server hosts, who have multiple servers and could keep one server without password, where racers could find the information how to get password for other servers.
Or if it would be possible to have password assigned to server and same time one joining the server can see the welcome text including information how to get access to it but cannot enter the server, then it would be possible to do for a single server hosts also.

I would do this kind of arrangement if we would still have servers running, maybe some day ...
