In the Connections List screen wherein all connected players are listed, an option to gag a player would be nice. Not just a key to block ALL messages, but just the inane typings of a particular individual.
Except the community is growing, not shrinking. More and more people are trying and buying every day. But feel free to believe what you want in spite of the facts and all logic. You'd make a good cabinet member.
There is more than one thread on the first page of this forum asking the exact same question. Please read before starting a redundant thread.
You can't simply paste in your old setups, as patch Y uses a new naming system. If you have a lot of setups, some LFSers have been nice enough to write a program which automatically renames all of them for you. Details here: http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=34784
As for your joystick, there isn't any good solution. LFS is a hardcore sim; to expect it to allow such unrealistic aids as blip and cut indefinitely is pure folly.
Buy a wheel. Evidently DFPs are available for less than $40, which is less than the price of LFS itself. Well worth it. I have an X45 too but I only use it for IL-2 1946. Flight stick for flight sims, wheel for driving sims.
This is off-topic, but my old setups are good bases on which to construct new setups. A little tweaking of the gear ratios has turned a few of my old FOX setups into pretty good new ones in only a few minutes. It's a lot easier to tweak a basic setup than it is to start from scratch.
This makes absolutely no sense. If you were buying an S2 license anyway, what difference does it make to you what changes were made to the demo?
It seems likely that you're just lying about planning to buy S2 in some ill-conceived threat to retract your intended purchase.
Guess what? No one here is falling for that. One lost sale is insignificant. The rest of us reasonable people will go right on driving this fantastic sim, the community will continue to grow, and we'll all laugh at the foolishness on the part of a few people who refuse to accept any change in an evolving racing sim.
Two types per race, but depending on the circuit Bridgestone would bring a selection of two out of their range of four. A high-grip, high-wear circuit like Magny-Cours demanded the two hardest tires, while a low-grip circuit such as Monte Carlo needed the two softest types.
Thank you for your well-thought out, reasoned review of patch Y. Without your valuable insight the rest of us would have gone blissfully on using an inferior product.
I have a sneaking suspicion that there are quite a few current and former racing drivers who also drive this sim, but they prefer to remain anonymous in order to dissuade undesired attention.
Impossible to verify of course, but it makes the feel of LFS even more special.
It's technically possible, but extremely unlikely unless he does this repeatedly or gets into an accident or somesuch.
From what I understand, the FIA can revoke superlicenses if the holder repeatedly and grossly violates the general standard of conduct expected of highly-paid professsionals (obviously open to interpretation), or publicly humiliates the FIA due to some huge scandal in the press.
Even then though, I doubt it because his fame brings so much publicity and money into F1.
You have to register, but it's well worth it considering the immense quantity of videos available. R-U is by far the best racing-related video website I've ever come across.
