Any plan for updating existing content ?
I mean at least some high res textures/poly for the actual cars/track to bring them to the westhill level.
Great result! if only you can find a solution for the exaggerated contrast because that will be a must have mod once finished !
He said in the test thread he will stick with this system for now, because of low performance impact.
Exactly thanks, but sadly he didn't release it to the public, probably lack of time.
EDIT: the result was promising : https://www.lfs.net/forum/thread/86193-The-custom-shaders-thread/page/2

I think there is no possibility to set a proper fresnel effect with the old spherical projection, though your reflection look very fine but it reflect too much at every point of view without any respect to the sun/specular position, but its the system limitation so we can't do much about that. 
On the other hand we have the new reflection system, I am not sure if it has the same spherical projection but only with sky and some high objects and fresnel effect, I dont know why scawen keep with this type of projection because it make the fresnel useless with the black thing around the edge of the car, plus no near the horizon object reflected which is sad but understandable since scawen said he won't do more because of game performance .
Maybe nacim can take a look at the shaders code and see if there is a possibility to make it into somthing near horizontal projection, like someone did with the old reflection shader.

Clean work like always, even if it's look out of shape with all the surrounding low res textures.
Good news for those who like LFS and want to thanks to devs with a little contribution, hopefully we will see more content and also an update for the old ones.
I will try to get this S3 if I can pick a deal with someone outside of the country, thanks to the gouvernement who closed exchanges with outsides economie because of the oil crisis, it will be very difficult to find a way for purchasing things from now...

I imagine same thing like ETS2 but only with France and the rest through DLC....
Lol wtf with their DLC system ??? only california and calling it american truck simulator ?
Why don't they release only a small village with the base game, and make a DLC for every **** 10km square of america!
The only thing that I can see is not the film, but the huge brainwash marketing campaign on every tech website!
Anyway, the vive or the rift will completely destroy the triple screen solution in term of affordability.

that's a quick jump into conclusions you did here.
You know there is alot of people who like physics/gameplay features and graphics stuff, like it or not when it correctly done ( like Iracing ) it play a huge role to improve the immersion.
I personally like both, never really stopped playing LFS because of graphics, but I always said to myself such a nice simulation with solid multiplayer deserve a little bit better looking, it's true being used to mess with raytacing renders doesn't help me too much either.
Anyway I will always support every tiny step to a better looking sim.
Parle anglais s'il te plais vue que c'est un forum international.
Essaye de te connecter directement avec le cable resaux pour que tu test si ça viens du wifi ou pas, mais je pense que c'est un peu plus compliquer que ça.
Je suspect algerie telecom de bloqué le multi de lfs exprès ou pas.
try to use english please even using google translate.
Also there is no solution atm for our problem, try to connect with the network wire (RJ45) directly with the modem to see if your problem are some packets lose from the wifi, but I suspect that isn't much help to resolve the problem.
Tbh I suspect the internet provider for blocking LFS port, on purpose or not.
+10.2 for comments above. 
Also it would be nice if you can improve the ambient light emission for the car body, when a part is not facing the light source the shadows are way too dark, actually LFS has probably something close to that :
An additional light to simulate ambient occlusion will give a better result :
And it's very useful to simulate a metallic shader :

Maybe it's time for you to make a clean install of LFS.
ah same problem as me, even if he change the udp to tcp other people still cannot see him.
do you use wifi or rj45 ?

yea... because no proper shadows system yet to cast sunlight inside objects.
Great graphics improvement! no bug noticed so far but I didn't do a test longer than 20 min.
Also it will be nice if we can set the number/distance of objects reflected, for people who have some more performance to throw, and it will be a pincal of perfection if you can achieve somthing near that :
But sadly as we know, perfection cannot be achieved so easily.
Now an proper shadows system and some basic specular/normal map system for track and we can call it a graphic overhaul! keep the good work!
And maybe in the near future we will have something like that.

good news! can't wait for the test patch.
Good news! look likes you are working hard on some graphics overhaul which is a welcome addition to the immersion and the attractivity of LFS, hopefully you can make good advance by the end of the year so we can see some preview screenshots.
Also congrats for receiving the new VR, even if I am personally the last one on the liste to get such advanced product due to my problematic geographical position, but I will anyway fully support your VR development as it will be somehow benefic for LFS future.
May rest in peace those Victims who suffered and was killed in the hands of ignorante and desperate humains.
Ok I can't let this pass, you are making a major disinformation with your misunstonding of coran, this sura was talking about egyptian pharaon who ordered to kill those who believe in Moses god's ( yes its the Jewish prophete ):
And about the aya 4:91, it's about a Qoreich groups of traitor ( they pretend to be Muslim ) who was about to kill those who's not beleive in their original religion ( kill Muslim, Christian, Jewish ), so the prophet was ordered to kill them before they did, there is nothing to do with terrorist ideology.
and :
and so on...
This is just a small hint about the massive ignorance people nowdays around the world have about the Islam religion, there isn't any sura or aya who tell or order to kill people for free ( except for self defense, in quran they call it jihad to protect your land/family from invaders, now you know how those brainwashed terroristes are making mistake about such important thing in islam and they call themselfs muslim ), so please investigate and you will see yourselves what kinds of messages islam are really sending.
Such an barbarian acts are provocated mainly by the misunderstanding between peoples, pauverty and wars are also an important part to make people gave up on living and kill themselves with innocents people.

Sorry for the bump but....
Still have this problem for almost one year, and I tried every damn solutions I even changed my modem/router and still the same no one can see me and I can see others only when I change UDP to TCP.
Sometimes when I restart the game many time I can make it work, and sometimes the game work fine from the first try.
I have no clue about the origin of the problem, btw I am connected through a wifi usb to the modem/router on my desktop pc and tried also on 2 laptops (wifi) and I had the same problem.
LFS was so reliable before that damn TCP/UDP update, is lfs are now too sensitive to the packets lose or something like that ? is there a way to make a choice between old system and the new one on some next updates ? because I have two other games which are working fine.

great mod ! glad I kept joux plane on my AC, it's a amazing experience!
now we need dirt/gravel simulation in AC and we can have some nice package.
and you think driving a car is that difficult ?
