This just makes it a whole lot easier when your starting the game for a "kid", or maybe even a first time racer.

1. If the car is set to automatic gear change, we should have it so it automatically goes into 1st gear from Neutral

2. When restarting the car the car should start in 1st gear not Neutral.

3. When the brake is held and the rpm is 0 then the car should automatic reverse.

If you think the automatic gear change should be left as it is, i still think there should be another option beside manual and automatic in the menu.

[edit]

please note, this suggestion isnt really for you hardcore gamers but as a "kid/child mode" option.

1) In Auto mode i think the car should start in 1st gear, and you need to change down yourself to get it to N.

2) Yes

3) Like my first answer. You should have to go throu N to get to reverse.

I bought myself a set of Logitech z5500 5.1 speakers (505 watt)

They are quite impressive, but need software for the Audigy 2 ZS, as i dont want to pay £8 from Creative, and cant get the best out of these speakers

ANyone know where i can get a copy??

Cheers

Hi,

Not that im aware of. Most do next day but thats all i think you can choose.

I think its quite had as i would imagine they carry a hell of a lot of packages, which need to go to various places?

I think we should consider re-designing / making a copy of the URF and XRG (is it??) to drive on rally X.

Look at the metro turbo - it got banned from rally driving it was soo fast!!!

Im sure you can drive the GTR cars on the rally track if the server lets you.


From when i tries in single player, im sure they didnt handle too well (for me anyways) because of there high power and rubbish traction on dirt.

Cheers,

That wont work, it would be quicker and easier to just use automatic clutch so everyone (most people) would just use that to save hasstle. You can't rule out automatic clutch becuase not all of use have 2 sets of pedals.... if even any pedals.

Im not on about rule out auto cluch. Im saying when a manual cluch is chosen, the Auto cluch is still on, because the car DOES NOT stall, when you put it into first and let the cluch out.

Im all for auto cluch, but when it is turned off, let it stay off"

Hi,

I use 2 sets of pedals, one set for brake, acel, and another for cluch and handbrake.

could we implement some kind of feature so the car stalls (when using a manual cluch). If you let your cluch out in 1st (with auto cluch NOT ON) with your brake on, the cluch stays on to save it from stalling!!

Not the most important features but a minor one

Hi,

When i run pit stotter the dos window appears, inside this, it tries to connect. and keeps producing the following message

connect time out


Any ideas

(this is after the string of numbers - maybe an ip address??)

marsden1002

i think this would be quite a good idea for demo races!

I Have similar problem sometimes.

Mine seems to keep the brake stuck on, or does not press fully.

What seems to sort mine is a quick hard stab, and were back to normal.


Got to ring logitech to get new set, but ive already got 1 wheel from them, so now im using 2 (one for gas, brake, cluch handbrake) but worried they will want the others back :S

I will be going with my camcorder of course, so yes, I am hoping to capture JC driving it. As this is a prestigious event ( look at the car line up ) you never know who will be in the driving seat.

If JC does drive in the seat, and you do capture it. Tell us what he thinks of LFS.

I have been off LFS for nearly a month now, doe to having my bedroom redecorated and cant get an ethernet cable to where the pc is now. Driving GT4 and it dosnt feel right compared to lfs??


Anyways . . . .

WHy should we have a boost button?? SHoudlnt the cars be running at full BHP anyway.

What is the point in a boost button. Its like the new M6. You have to change a lot of options before you can get to the full 501BHP it offers. Why down-tune a car, when its got the power there??

(sorry if its off point a little.)

Quote from AndroidXP :

@mardsen1002: Did you actually read the thread?

@sinbad: Great idea! :up:

Yes. Need to shift to 1st gear when lights go green - Also someone said that you could jump the lights.

Hence my Opinion

Would be bad for people who use auto-cluch. This is becuase they would not be able to rev at the start, and would have to start from 1000rpm, which may be a little slow compared to people who could start at 3500rpm.

For example, when i start a race, i rev to around 4000rpm, but use my cluch to avoid wheel spinning. I find reving at start gets me away quicker

Cheers,

Quote from P5YcHoM4N :

Best get the fire suit.

NFS:U2 uses sound samples to kick in at different rpm levels. Which is fine for most. But LFS uses a more "realistic" system, the cars may not sound like the rice crispy you are used to in NFS:U2, but you KNOW what the engine is doing in LFS. Which is also why I turn off shift lights I shift the same way my dad taught me to, *"just listen to the engine, she be telling you when she be ready to shift".




*May not be an accuate representation of events.

NFS:U2 is a bad game. The racing is so "arcady" and the engine noises, you cant when to shift my the engine noise. In LFS i find when the car is ready to shift, you begin to loose power, and the engine is normally screaming. In LFS you have power all the way to the rev limiter, on every single car.

Im Not too keen on the lights, as these are not to my liking. Like the inside and keep up the good work!!

Quote from L(Oo)ney :

If it is around the 50k reigon, then that'll be about £120,000 they have made. If they are all S2 licenses anyway..

It might seem a lot at first, but you have to remember that the money has to be cut three ways, and then theres living expenses and other stuff like this to take out of that.

(edit) Also dont forget that they have been working only on LFS for the past three years, with no other money coming in from other sources.

I dont think they are rich one bit. Scawens haircut just goes to prove this. ;P

I dont think many people are s1 anymore, or at least they dont use online servers.

That is because last time i checked, there was 1 server running s1 :S

Quote from Tweaker :

You don't have to have it toooo far away from electronic devices.... it is safe enough even at about a legs length or so.

The sub here is placed to my right under my table. It isn't anywhere near my monitor or computer... the only thing it is close to is my mini fride . Logitech just advises that you don't put the sub close to your computer.... I wouldn't do that anyways because it would probably shake out some parts in the ol' PC .

Oh and the sub is about 14in/35.5cm tall, that can fit under your bed?

BTW, when it comes shipped to your home, prepare to make A LOT of room wherever you unpack it... it is packed to the core with styrofoam and plastic wrapping. I made a big mess of my room after I was done

No That will not fit under my bed. Have to go back to the thinking board!
