what hardware you have?

thanks for great event once again and thanks for expr who stayed on his decision to choose this combo even his suggestion was questioned by some others. (I still hate that my recordings end up so blurry )

I add also one mention about the accident between Joel TDI and tonder762. After specating, Joel strongly criticized tonder in race chat, many times, calling him crasher and demanded ban for him. I was curious enough to check what was the situation about. They raced several laps in clear harmony, and imo collision was not fault of tonder, instead fault of Joel who didnt check his right side and tried to "close right door" without seeing what was happening on his right side, and running in the raceline of him. Why I bother to write such report here, because I wanted to just give justice to tonder762 who received strong accusations in the chat.

Can be similar to this or that? When you mention "old pc", makes me wonder if the hw resources are just simply outdated to even running current version of LFS.

Can you tell us more about hardware of that old pc?

Nice tracks you linked ACCAkut, downloaded & thanks!

Looks great and innovative that VR spectating. Doesn't your neck get hurt doing that?

btw I was playing in the LFS garage with power/weight ratios, to have same ratio for each car, would require 8kg extra mass for XRT and 30kg for FXO, just as a curiosity (I dont have idea how that would affect the performance)

Best Gaming Tech 2018 and the sim used for demonstrate is... (at 3:00)

that tunnel part is creative, nice

That is btw very wise and nice way sharing layouts via SPR file, so user gets the layout + one sample lap how to drive it, excellent!

my "almost live in-car" of last race (XFR@South City Town Course) xD (explanation in video's description)

Quote from Kid222 :

Just downshift very quickly in most of the LFS cars and voila, popcorn is done.

.....hey when shall we have a popcorn smile in the "smiles"?

+1 Ped7g nailed it. Looks like end of thread, otherwise popcorn time

redbot = correct answer.

Actually that is a place of improvement: The message should be something like that: "Current car not available on this server"

I cant even see that DRIFT HANE >TWEAK server in my list. What if you try another server, for example some non-tweak race server? Filter TBO cars in the list and choose for example the b2r tbo equal server. Can you choose a car there?

Can you upload a screenshot? What server you were connected? Nevermind, if that is the case, I have no tricks to help further

LFS-License-Name: lucaf
Ingame Name:9397

That screenshot looks correct, you are in S1 mode. Still got message "you must be in S1 mode to drive xxxx"? That is weird.

Next what I would try: Download a fresh copy of lfs from this site. Install it in different folder, and try that one.

Wasn't it a big-ass game in last decade? Isnt that enough? )

Somehow I am not sad its not the most popular sim today. It means it lacks all the millions of noobs and crashers that you meet in multiplayer of modern sims.

I personally don't feel sad LFS doesnt contain more real tracks. Many popular modern race tracks I don't like - mickey mouse tracks cluttered with artificial chicanes - driving them gives very little satisfaction. Instead would be lovely to have real tracks from the very past (40yrs old -->) when chicanes did not exist.

I feel privileged to have the opportunity to still experience LFS among a beautiful, small community with talented professionals giving you infinite challenges. Currently in LFS there are enough leagues fulfilling my needs of experiencing simracing.

Ok thank for the information!

For me most combos are ok. I wonder how much the skin rule is dropping participants (at least it has a negative effect on my interest rate, though I haven't yet given a no-go for it).

In the first screen click right bottom "Unlock" to unlock S1 license. First make sure you know your game password: https://www.lfs.net/account/details

Quote from Bila_KHS :

Besides, i got some quit diffrent feelings with out last race where there was no discipline in some drivers.

Im still open to work as volunteer limad if it helps anything.

But maybe you could specify the concrete situations wich were lacking discipline? Was it caused by newcomers? Of course if there is one full multiplayer server in LFS, its unavoidable that some ppl join just to have some quick fun, without understanding there are other preparing for an event. There was for example that Gianni guy that was spreading destruction some 15 minutes before admins gave attention for the situation. My suggestion is (if you dont want recruit limads), put kick/ban voting option in the server, and trust the community. We love to kick peoples lacking discipline <3

Quote from expr :

Speaking of dangerous behaviour, I never got what Joan (xXSniikzXx) was on about when lapped on lap 5, driving so slowly and erratically on the s/f line.

It was quite unsafe in any case.

I agree. Despite the guy is nice, but his behaviour was not acceptable. His clutch was done, but instead of heading to pits (no point to try cool down such dead clutch on the race track), he remain on track - on the race line - even the leader (expr) was closening him very rapidly. Additionally he joked in chat about towing his car. I like jokes, but that joke was in wrong circumstances.

Check your account status page, you should see your license transactions there? https://www.lfs.net/account/status I think "this shit" doesn't lose users licences just by accident.

Last race... experimented the first curves recorded with standard free view, switched to TV Director after the chicane traffic.
