Great league idea! It fills the Wednesday gap in LFS events very well, and I think no oval championship is active at the moment (correct me if I'm wrong), so it's unique. I hope more players join, I'll see if I can participate someday. Smile

Quote from THE WIZARD DK :a bit off topic,
but i noticed recently not many servers are on remote these days. i mean like servers that used to be there ,now is not.

Seems like more server owners need to set up Insim Relay (on LFSWorld - Racers & Hosts online - InSim Relay) to be visible on LFSRemote.

If you want to attend some organized racing events, check the Racing Calendar: https://www.lfs.net/leagues/calendar
There are a couple of great events with high attendance throughout the week, but make sure you read the rules of the event you'd interested in Smile

Quote from Pasci :On my team site I removed the link to the flash version because I do not want to "force" anyone to install Adobe Flash today.

I use Chrome and I don't have Flash installed separately. Chrome, by default, blocks the execution of flash codes, but it can be allowed in the upper-left corner, clicking the lock icon.

Make sure to add events to the official Racing Calendar so more people notice your event! Smile https://www.lfs.net/leagues

Quote from ZeldaRacer18 :Hello. I have seen many videos of LFS and wanted to get in on the action, so I made an account here and downloaded the demo. However, the license costs are unfamiliar to me because I don't use British pounds. I use US Dollars. How much are each license's costs in USD?

If you upgrade from Demo (license prices for US, exchange rates 19/08/2019 10:51 UTC):
  • Upgrade from Demo to S1: 12 GBP = 14.55 USD
  • Upgrade from Demo to S2: 24 GBP = 29.09 USD
  • Upgrade from Demo to S3: 36 GBP = 43.64 USD

Thanks for the detailed report full of technical description. While I don't fully understand all of it, it's always interesting to read it through. Also, it gives a slight insight of what you guys are doing behind-the-scenes and working hard on: something not everyone has a clear image of. Good luck with the development, keep it up!

Unfortunately, I missed the last race as well, due to being away from home for a longer period. However, I enjoyed the series, we had some great combos. Congrats Unite!!

That's a great idea. Also, it would be great to see race starts, finishes, maybe even yellow flags automatically marked on the replay timeline. Smile

Your first thing to do in order to get better is to calm down. You can't improve your lap times if you are too stressed or upset. Practice makes perfect. If that helps, check the Hotlap Analyzer on LFSWorld to see what others do differently (for example, the gear others use in THAT specific turn, or if they lift throttle or not). Also, curious, what setup are you using?

Quote from joaopaulopt :Is there registration to participate? if there is no way I can participate?

No registration/signup is required. You just have to join the server in time before the event starts and enjoy it Smile

(Rony: attached today's replay, if you need it)

Great idea, Rejekt! That would be awesome and events would get much more attention and gain more reach. Especially if it was placed on the main menu screen. LFS sites and forums would still be the places to go if one wants to get all the details about upcoming events.

Awesome report, great to read and recall events - great effort. I LOVE the heli-cam GIF, that looks awesome. Keep it up, I really enjoyed the race!
Quote from MicroSpecV :Yes Sobis - LRL is now officially in the LFS League Section!

That's great, make sure to schedule upcoming rounds so potential players see it on the top, as an active (and awesome Smile ) league. Keep it up-to-date Smile

Quote from Eclipsed :There is such thing already,it's called Leagues section - https://www.lfs.net/leagues ! You should check out! Cool

That's a valid point - I really like that page and think that it is / would be a great "hub" for an overview of racing leagues. However, it needs some moderating and cleaning up: a huge list of events looks good of course, but I found many, so called "leagues" on that page which aren't real leagues and haven't had a single event - or it's just a fake event because someone had the mood to try creating an unreal and unorganized entry on the list. Also, I know revamping Leagues section isn't a high priority thing to do right now, I think the racing calendar, which is the most interesting and synthetic overview, should be on the main page (maybe in a more compact format so players can easily see which days are active and click if they are interested on a given day). Also, something like an RSS feed or exporting/linking public calendar formats would help a lot (for example, I would LOVE having a separate LFS events calendar in my Google Calendar, which I actively use every day).

EDIT: I also started posting individual events on /r/LiveforSpeed, hoping I can "advertise" or spread news of these fun organized events we have.

Hi there, please, turn your caps lock off. Don't shout. That one simple thing just made me uninterested in your video, sorry.

There's a mistake in the announcement: the date under the logo is in the past Smile

EDIT: thanks for the fix. Check the track info in the post as well Smile

Quote from adirany :Thanks lfsrm for the info. I think lfs is the best simulator right now. I am investing in the future. There will be a lot of updates in the coming months or years and I want to be part of it.

That's a fair opinion. Smile About the upcoming updates, you are definitely right, a huge graphics overhaul is under development. Na-na

It's such a strange issue though, as it worked flawlessly before. Victor, we need your help! Smile

Quote from Scawen :I am pleased to say that we have an increasing number of licenses sold to Brazilian racers so maybe the tide is turning.

I'm glad to hear this, especially as you recently tweeted about increasing number of sold licenses to China as well: https://twitter.com/LFSracing/status/1112985820192014336 Smile I hope sales are getting better and better from now on.

David 96 is right.
Think about it like this: every license upgrade "step" costs £12. It doesn't matter if you take all three steps and pay £36 at once or you pay £12 for every license upgrade separately and sequentially (Demo -> S1 -> S2 -> S3). At the end, say if you want an S3 license, it will cost you £36 whichever license upgrade path you took before. I hope this helps Smile

/offtopic: wow, you have a really old account, how come you decided to upgrade after 16 years? That's a reaaaaalllly long time Smile
