Try smoother mouse-> wheel movements.

With a mouse is really easy to catch a slide but not to make nice drifts and it does not give you back any skill at all cause all the control comes from the insanely fast turns and corrections… you will feel useless when you try to use a wheel…

At lfs’s cars the rev limiter is in way higher revs than the peak power is… You just do not have any power at all there…
You should try drift without lfstweak, it’s harder to do nice drifts without that much power and you will be able to drift with other drifters on line…

Ok Vids for first attempts, having the right fps and knowing the use of shift+F
The next step is to use shift+U and make your custom cameras

I have set the force feedback at the driver to 30% and then into the game to 100%
Also use 720 degrees of rotation for the road cars. (or 1 to 1 wheel rotation for every car)
First of all do not be afraid… there is no way you can break the wheel.
I am not a drifter but I drift occasionally and I had a similar problem at the beginning cause the dfp wheel does not steer fast easily cause of its FF mechanism…

After some (months) practicing i learned how to use it… you have to predict the cars movement and start steering to the right direction sooner than you may have get used to with an 240deg wheel.

This cpu should be fine for at least 40 fps…

I had an 3000+ athlon xp (2000mhz) and even in full grid I was always above 50fps and when I was alone, 100+ fps…

Are you sure that there is no other application using cpu on the background?
See on task manager > processes, if there is something that uses a noticeable amount of resources, cpu or ram…
If you do not see something wrong try setting the lfs.exe at hi priority when running.




I do not think that the o/c will save him… its clearly shown from the single player performance that the system is not working properly…

Really nice cameras and overall smooth movement!
And :hyper: at the backfires


In how many fps you recorded that?

"A camera car took shots of the 29-year-old on some sections of all three laps and Heidfeld slowed down for the photo calls."

They were not trying to reach a decent time at all... it was just for the show...

@anttt69

Makinen is under lag and he is not able to see you… and that is clearly shown from his undamaged car…

But you consider yourself as innocent?? Yell no one is…
You need to read these rules…

Recovering from an incident

RI-1: The onus is entirely on the driver recovering from any incident that leaves them in any way an obstacle or a hazard to other drivers, to take all necessary care, hazard minimization, and responsibility not to interfere with any cars still on the track and not part of the incident. If you are off the track then the rules on “returning to the track after an off” apply.
RI-2: If you’re on the track after an incident and still in an incident recovery mode then you have no rights what-so-ever. You must give way to all non-incident-affected cars until you are fully recovered. An relevant incident may include, but not limited to, being ... Spun out, facing the wrong way, perpendicular to the track, going abnormally slow for where you are on the track, whatever, ...
RI-3: You must do everything you can to minimize the hazard your car may constitute as soon as possible. This may mean driving fully off the track if you’re half on it. It may mean moving as fast as you safely can to the non-racing-line side of the track. It may mean retiring from the race as fast as you can do so. Whatever.
You will have no defence if you cause another incident whilst recovering from an incident, or being unnecessarily slow at removing the hazard your car may constitute after an incident. Even if the incident was not your fault. All non-incident-affected drivers have right-of-way over anyone recovering from an incident.

[EDIT]

That was a silly mistake from me… :worried: :ouch: :doh:

I thought that you were one of the drivers trying to recover from the lap1 T2 accident…

Of course you have been hit for no reason and I feel really embarrassed saying this nonsense above…

There is a difference on the grids.

On the olfsl site I am on pool1 and on the posted grids here, I am on pool2

[edit]

Ok the problem is that I can not be at my home before 17:30GMT and my teammates informed me that I was called on pool 2

So I guess that… I missed it…

On the olfsl site I am still in pool 1, but I do not want to cause a mess so I have no problem on not running there neither… but there are the -40 DNSH points that bother me…

I think ventrilo has better sound quality and it is easy to use, at least for me.

Quote from BenjiMC :I looked at it and found nothing, you were unsettled and there wasn't enough time for him to react imo, but at the end of the day it's the marshalls ruling

He actually reacted and let off the throttle but then he immediately pushed it again trying to take advantage of the lococost’s car which became unsettled cause of his (Gjerde’s) misjudgment of the extra speed he gained from the slipstream…

The initial fault could be an accident cause of lack of racing experience but then there is no real excuse for the rest… maybe carelessness?

That’s great! Time to see real driving and not just steering with the right foot welded to the floor…

I love the way lfs is being developed and I appreciate that I bought a product that is getting better and better for free…

Any other large company would have stopped the evolution now considering it is finished… Just to make you buy the new version of the game…

Nice video Always loved the music.

Try using progressive scan to prevent everything transforming into tiny stripes when the image moves fast.

He has the same plates with the name “-Toni-“ seen @ “XRT at Fern Bay slow-motion drift” which had been hosted at lfs movies pit.

Here is the post of kamo2000 http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?p=113647#post113647

It seems to be the same person who made these two videos…

But why a demo racer posts it???

(@ lfs movies pit they were hosting videos showing s2 action only by S2 licensed users)

It is a driving error but the “right way to do it” is not as easy as you may think while watching from an outside camera…

He could just attack these “bumps” less aggressively but that what matters there is the show

I know that I ‘ve been send to the sand trap at the very first corner of the track due to a silly lag crash, but I hope I wont get DNSH points (-40) for that…

Haha this had no torque at all… seems to be to a normal xrg…
It’s a dub or a really destroyed edit_eng

Cool vid!

It could be a better if there was less blur or better focus and a mix with the game sounds directly from the sound card.

Crazy track crazy music… even I don’t like that song it’s a good match.

Well always there are ups and downs…
For me there are only downs lol at the first event I had terrible lag and I retired from the first corner… now I started first at pool2, meshed up the first bend, slowing me down me about 5km/h making others to be able to overtake from right, making me take wrong line cause I didn’t want any contact and then woops.. too close at the first “hairpin” the friendly bump I had from behind was unavoidable destroying my suspension… I got owned… finished last.
The only think I can blame is the shity internet network we have here in Greece… still based on telephone lines… Sο the fastest way is dsl but with extremely low packets per sec rates from almost every isp…

That’s for apologies if I slowed down some of you in pool2…because I didn’t hit anyone.

Great movie as always mask

Turbo does not help… just increase general ΗP… that gives you a smoother and more usable power curve.

Also ultra big tires (squidhead's are fine) and over 10000ps don’t help…
