The LFS in-game meeting room was made for that, but it's rarely used.

Yeah, it was made for that, but it isn't really wanting people to press it. It is a small grey button at the top right, not very inviting. I think a thread would work much better because more people would read/look at it.

No, people want to race, but they are afraid to join empty servers!

There might be a big hungry monster there waiting to eat them for dinner!

Scawen, this only ever works if you are in a group of about 5 or more on Teamspeak and that still might be a struggle to get more on. I have tried this magical waiting on a empty server thing and it simply doesn't work. Maybe we could have a thread where people could organise to pop on a server at a certain time and have some fun there.

sinchety, you finally changed your flag...

Quote from jujek :

I also don't use rotating map but removing that option will be not nice or any other option becouse people what play LFS do this for very long time so when we lost some option for e.g. map rotation people will be not happy with it so please don't remove any options what we already have.

I am fine with removing the options we already have but only if very little use them, as Scawen have discovered here, people use the rotating track map. I can understand why Scawen didn't know as he has probably never been to a cruise server.

you forgot my epic driftaruu

Also, couldn't you make the map go behind the text, if you mean the lap times and position etc.

Well, Stoffel Vandoorne used to be a sim racer.

Quote from Aler1 :

scawen is possible to add a ramp like that for objects layout creator?

Just no...... Make it yourself if you really want it

Quote from Sobis :

Quote please? I can't remember them saying that. I do remember them saying that they don't want to withhold content because of the tyre physics, that's the reason they released RO, isn't it?

I believe they are waiting for the tyre physics for the scirocco, but the tracks can be released any time?

The size of the Suggested Improvements list wouldn't be that long if he had implemented them (if he thought they were good ideas).

For the cars that we have to drift now 45° is way to much, it would turn drifting into something that i find fun to do every once and a while due to the difficulty into something that i would never to due to how easy it would get. If you want to give us cars that can have 45° steering lock, give us cars with 600bhp... then if would be a bit more than just full throttle drifting.

What leagues are you racing, mouse? ATM, i am just racing in the occasional club races on some websites (for not so casual racing)

Probably been suggested multiple times, but, it would be awesome if we could create custom minimaps for layouts we have created!

Wait, this new update makes UM's layouts unusable? nonononononono

Shame about no tyre physics or anything.

When in the pits, click the setup called "[Hard Track]", after that, click "New Setup". Modify it!

I don't see a difference in FPS

That long exposure is so weird , Cool that you went to Ben Nevis! Great photos!

Well, i didn't really notice ping problems yesterday, as long as you were stable then you were fine

Surely when it gets to 1.0 that means it has full release?

Quote from ProjectD_ALLSTAR :

I think that the drifting scene in Live For Speed shouldn't be ignored or put to the side. Out of all the popular games for drifting LFS is my favorite. Unfortunately LFS has been slowly getting less and less relevant which lead me to get in touch with the YouTuber theslaptrain1. The video I did with him I believe is at something like 65k views and brought some new players to LFS. I will probably do another video with him in the next week (maybe, not guaranteed). I think that even a small thing like some extra steering lock will bring more people that play other popular drifting games because it shows that the developers take interest in the sim drifting community.

When you say some, do you mean a few? i have seen some new players, but, a lot of them have admitted to using Pereulok. When you go to the top of this page, does it say "The online racing simulator" or "The online drifting simulator"? What i personally believe is that he should finish the tyre physics get the Scirocco out, etc. before he gets sidetrack by anything... If he goes and changes something in the game that creates a load of issues then he will have to work all them out too, delaying the tyre physics and the Scirocco.

To not make this post totally pointless, i have found a wee issue in the barriers at Fern Bay, I am getting one shadow on the barrier and one shadow on the ground behind the barrier:

.vob mods like Ben was using in that video is better than using a totally different model in my opinion, they don't affect collision meshes but, they aren't allowed on the forums. Most .vob mods that i have ever seen change the car completely, changing the collision meshes. As willi said there, when you crash into someone using the correct .vob's and you have the modded ones it will make you both go flying, regardless of ping.

Particular servers? Oh yeah, where those wonky collisions would also happen?
