I can photo the seats and rear door covers, but not the ceiling couse the M3's is different then mine (anyhow if i check the part numbers).

What is this again? http://www.lfsforum.net/attach ... id=35062&d=1184707167
Why does the US model have just one big button instead of two for the fog lights? US models suck

No this is an 318is. Small mens M3 My E36 is an M3 though (the one on the left). But everything you see is same like M3 exept the handbrake & cover. The heated seats buttons are an extra , and the tape box too.

I just added the german labled BC because US buttons and kM/h speedo don't fit together ?!

Hi Phonso :-)

i have some pics for you. Hope you find them usefull. I noticed your texture for 'how to defrost the windscreen' is mirrored. See E30_1 picture. Have no picture of the windscreen 'air outlet' had problems with the cam's flashlight the windscreen is like a mirror :-(

Please tell me when you got the pics so i can delete them here, they use up some MB's.

@Mustang
indeed the US M3 came with a regular gearbox, while the Euro M3 came with a sports gearbox. 1st. gear left and down like in a fartrarri.

Are these the right seats for SportEvolution? I might make them.

Yes they are!

Quote from theirishnoob :

don't forget you only got black wheels with the biggest set you could buy at the time from the dealer if he didn't steal em for his bmw ( which where 17 " i think )

Wrong Hm better remove the M3 tag from your name . The black ones came with the limited edition "Cecotto" , the nagarosilver came with the limited edition "sport evolution". Both are 16" and you can still buy the nagarosilver from your bmw dealer and put them on any E30 M3. Well Phonso's M3 looks like a SportEvolution. Black color with red contrast strips on the bumpers, front spoiler and rear spoiler with flap but is missing the right seats to be a real SportEvo.

Do you have a picture of the dash, specifically this area?

Gone back to interior work, made steering wheel.

Hi m8, i got that wheel. I took some pictures maybe you find them usefull

This is awesome work!

I think the Doormirrors could need a little rework.
http://www.s14.ctmnet.de/0028/01.jpg

And the wheels look to big. Factory rims where 7.5x16" yours look like 17" or 18".
The rims came in 3 colors. Silver, 'Nagarosilver' or black.

First ever(?) diy FFB Wheel.

SVmapper does the job just fine. Small tool, no installation required.

I don't know what you mean, but Leos deviced is named "A/D controller BU0863". http://www.lbodnar.dsl.pipex.com/joystick/BU0836_XP.png

FFB technology isn't the limiting factor here. It's LFS and the Hardware e.g. crappy ffb wheels. Oh yeah im sure about that, i have been digging into FFB technology for quite some time while writing my own ffb firmware.

Some details of the new Engine. Uh yeah this one is good.
420Bhp, 8400Rpm 10Kg less then the previous M3 3.2L engine.

Quote from Gentlefoot :

The 'old old Nordschleife' is actually called the Sudschleife. Most of it is overgrown now but you can still find it if you go looking

This is wrong. The old old Nurburgring(~28Km) was Nordschleife+Südschleife. But the Nordschleife itself has never been called Südschleife.

Quote from GFresh :

It doesn't have to be 305€, BI will provide all the schematics so that you can build your own for cost, all you need is a Plasma-Lite v2, which does a hell of a lot more than just drive gauges .
But fair play, i do like the look of your multi-in-one gauge.

That is nice Do BI plan to release those schematics or are the already available for BI customers?

E30 is/was the best. I would rather buy a used e46 CSl then this ugly thing. Maybe the V8 can change my mind... It's realy a shame how bad all new BMW looks. But i don't see any real alternative for a sporty RWD car at a reasonable price.

This looks nice! But i just calculated the price, and come up with about 305€ (including 4 Aircores). For me its too expensive for what if offers. Since i build something simmilar for about 60€ including the gauge. Look here

Quote from Tweaker :

Today I was just talking about a possible addon for LFS that controls the indictators and ignition (key)....

Should be no problem, i'm gonna try it later.

Quote from danowat :

Camera's and tank camera's have all been sorted, a group of 8 of us are going for 3 days, weekend the 26th May, so it should be good.

Expect pics and video's shortly after we get back

Watch out with those cameras, it's not allowed to film your owm driving e.g. mount a camara in car / on bike. If they catch you, it could result in a 1 day ban! Not funny...

Hi!

I would like to ask if You (devs) could add constant force on steering wheel parameter as one of the spare floats in outgauge packet.

Thanks

Can't see the point, you can already get the data from directx pid.dll . Makes no sense to build a FF wheel which only works with LFS.

I have played some more with Outgauge and USB. This is what i've came up with. Note i misuse the Oilpressure gauge to display Turbo boost :-)

Video

Today i learned some C++. Now i got all the data i want. It was so easy, sorry i asked for help

@Kegetys , thank you for your great app.

Here a short video of my working Device.

btw. here are the schematics and firmware stuff.

I could change the code so that my device is reconized and can display some Led function. But I'm struggling to get the Gear data. I think i understand that it had to be read from OGPACKET.Gear and put into a variable, and then put it in the appropriate byte of 'foo' . But i have no clue how to do that. I'm a total C noob.

This don't work , dunno why :

Quote :

// Write LED packet to wheel
BYTE foo[]={0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00};
DWORD written;

// foo[0] = ReportId (if device use multiple ReportID's)
foo[1] = Gear;
foo[2] = Flags; //Flags bits 0-7
foo[3] = Flags; //Flags bits 8-15
// etc...

I saw your code sends data constantly, but only needs to send data if something has actually changed. i.e. Geardisplay it don't need to send the same gear over and over again. How could i compare the actual Geardata with last send Geardata and only resend if they are different, any hints?

Quote from Kegetys :

If you are familiar with C

Unfourtunally i'm not I just learned Microchip Assembler and the USB stuff. But it looks like a easy job to modifiying your code. From reverse engineering the Momo i remember it used Vendor Output reports for switching the Led on/off. I don't know what you mean by file writes maybe thats just the MS terminology for Output Reports which you find in any USB docs!?

I have made a USB Gamedevice Firmware for pic18f4550 microcontroller. It's a Hid device and can receive data from PC via Feature or Output reports, both are supported. Currently its just a Joystick with alot of buttons(64), 7-Segment Display and 16 LED. But i can do basicly any gamedevice stuff.

I need help with a Outgauge Plugin. So if someone realy want to help me with a plugin for LFS, i can send a ready assembled free controller. Of course i made it public so anyone can built it for free.
