I am thinking about, maybe is it good so how it is at time. Good rejoinder.

Quote from popps258 :

This is easy to fix^^

+1 for other Ovals

Quote from mrodgers :

There are no chicanes in LFS that actually cause you to slow down. Any slowing of the cars for chicanes come from a corner right before the chicane.

Drive then just reverse, then is full throttle in the middle of the curve not so easy possible, for example use fern bay black.

@all, my first posting is updated, maybe now can you better understand what i mean.

Quote from dev :

You wanna say that you would like to see all the turns where you actually gotta know how to drive removed from the track? Drive the oval then

-1000

Have you read my posting?? I want just remove those 3 corners from the screenshots and all the other corners are fine and over 200 km/h with BF1!

Quote from Dajmin :

Sounds like another oval request to me.

No, thats not true, a oval differ much with my suggestion!

Quote from AndRand :

It is called
W-E-S-T-H-I-L-L

No, all current tracks have slow corners and thats very bad for a nice fast race!

Quote from thisnameistaken :

Bad thread starter! -1

Quote from KeiichiRX7 :

wow... that's kinda retarded...

Thanks for the much insulting in this thread!

I suggest here a new track for BF1 and don´t wonna remove a existing track! A fast track is for a fast Car, you dont must tell that you maybe get bored if you drive it with a UF1. I am very angry about some reactions

I wish to drive in a track without small curves like a part of Aston Historic. No curve in the whole track should be be slower than 200 km/h with BMW Sauber F1.06 (BF1)

Only some curves in Aston Historic are to tight for a really fast track.
I made screenshots of all to slow curves:
The first slow turn (ca 140 km/h possible)
The second slow turn (ca 120 km/h possible)
Finally the last turn is with ... km/h a litte bit to slow

Fern Bay
In Fern Bay are much nice fast corners, my suggested fast track should be like the red area in the following image of the Fern Bay small map.
A very nice speeding-area in Fern Bay

Westhill International
The to slow corners are blue marked:
The 2 small turns of the Speedway Westhill


And sorry, my English is really bad, i know i should go to learn better English

At time is the fuel setup a global thing for all cars, and must everytime be changed if track/car change. My suggestion is: The fuel-setup should be a part of the car-setup and individual different for every single setup.

Furthermore i suggest that the live-fuel-setup (in F12) should not make 5% steps. 1% steps will be very great.

feature not needed

Yes, this is needed, and not only in pit, the track-name must be visible everywhere, i think it can be included in F12. And my additional suggestion is: Display the server-name in game.

Thats a good suggestion and nice for screen-shots.

Thanks alot. I was searching for and didnt found, dont know why, some mistake....
I made 33 screenshots and all error-free. My external screenshot application make 30% grey error-pictures. Thats really a good add for 100% error free images!

Hello, i´ve some questions about, i heard it makes maybe screen-shots, but i didnt find any screen-shot after press it, also not in the clipboard.
In what folder will the screen-shots be saved?

Quote from Humbleridderen :

I think the ideal is, that shift + s is a call for a tractor which comes and bring you to garage. Then the repair should start from there and you can go. If it´s not possible to make a tractor, it could just be like a countdown, "transporting"...2 minutes or so.

It must be possible to clean the track fast in some servers with the rule "Shift+S after crash or banned". Therefore i suggest to send all this players who must press this because of a crash to spectators. Furthermore i suggest that this must be possible during a player is connecting, because a fast cleanup of the track is important for a good race of non wrecked cars.

Quote from Fischfix :

choice 2: reset but damage won't be repaired

This is already removed in patch W10 and will not be back again. Why want you reset your car on track? I guess the reset-option is absolutely senseless and make the game boring. if you roll over, fly out, no problem, you press still reset and be in w10 then always repaired??????? Is this a good game??? Is this realistic? IMO destroy it the game!

Quote from Jimmy_Lemon :

iv used mouse steering and wheel. i use wheel dur in the day when the wheel noise isnt anoying and at night time i use mouse, tbh im actually faster on my mouse but wheels more fun.

and no i dont think anything should be changed for the mouse its perfect as it is.

i use mouse left and right for steering and W for throttle S for brake A for shift down D for shift up R for rear view look E for clutch Q for horn Shift for handbrake, C for reset, give it a try its easy when you get used to keyboard and mouse at same time

When you not have a axis for throttle and brake and when you not hate to drive always with full throttle and full brake, then use your mouse-x-axis in a wheel-setup, because then can you type and drive with just a mouse. The buttons will be not changed.

Go just in Controls, chose there wheel / js, and click there in the middle/right at Axes / FF. Click there at Steer and chose at right side in "Available Axes" at Mouse-X. If this made, you can steering and typing with only a mouse, thats the Reason. For throttle and brake can you use the Mouse-Y-Axis or just your old buttons, or your wheel or whatever.

Quote from geeman1 :

Already done in the TEST Patch and it will be in the next offical patch.

I suggest here the complete remove of any car-reset in single- and multiplayer within the arcade-option. I cant see any reason in this feature except it make the single-player mode much more boring.

Quote from hackerx :

I don't see much point in this, as you may go to pits right after joining the spectators anyway?

If then the race full u cant join the race. Thats the reason for my suggestion, because i don´t want that it possible racers going to pits in race and blocking the slots, and spectators outside the race cant join. Summarize is it just a harder penalty for broken car or flying outside the track or roll over.

At time is going to pits possible from every place at the track. Thats much unrealistic and should be removed. I suggest that from track just only "join to spectators" should be possible.

And the car-reset on track should be completely removed. But maybe should i start a new topic for this??

Edit:
My solution:

• Shift+S on track should send the player to spectators.
  
• If the player drive in a garage and press there Shift+S he will not be out of the race and go directly to pits.

I drove with the XRR on 2 wheels and straight with 150 km/h. I guess the downforce with 150 km/h should be high enough to press the car faster back to the track. But thats just my thinking.

Watch out, use mirrors. I used the pitspotter, but a long time no more, i want see the cars beside me - watch out.

Quote from wark :

Scawen's said he's not going to add any more features for mouse or kb. :Kick_Can_

I agree with scawen, mouse steering is not good. I use now x and y and the y axis use disturb the x-axis. Therefore ill going to buy a game-controller, maybe G25.... or another with more than 4 axis and high axis-resolution.

Quote from George Kuyumji :

Not really.

I like alot of Ovals but if we should get a new one it should be a decent one, that requires some braking at least. KY Oval is a pathetic Oval Track.

The oval is not for using brakes, its for drafting. The game is drafting and the ky-oval is great for this. I guess we need a bigger oval for a higher top-speed with a longer straight-line. For better drafting and teamwork.

Quote from NetDemon01 :

This is already possible and is how I race all the time. You just have to select 'wheel' as your controller and then assign the corresponding axes. It really is not that hard to use at all.

The throttle and brake also needs to use the 'combined' setting so that the upper portion of the screen is throttle, and lower portion is brake, with an amount of deadzone in between according to how you set that up.

Special thanks for your instructions, i go now to test this out.
Edit: Made, i´m really happy now i love it, it is more easy than in the dutch racer project.
New edit:

• Type and drive is possible by use the mouse-xy-axis in a wheel-setup. Great! Just my freeze-button for click in connections-list is nor needed

Quote from Jakg :

Single player? and that rule is (imo) pretty stupid

In my opinion is it not right, that it in single player is possible to repair the car on track by reset. And now is this feature - repairing by reset - a arcade-feature in multi-player, i don´t like this feature in both, in single-player and multi-player. But sorry i did not read hda´s posting right, thought hda was in a oval-server.

Quote from hda :

I was playing single player with an f1 in oval, i got towed off the track and i couldn't get back cause "it would cause a yellow flag"

Edit: my answer is removed by me! because: sorry, didnt read right - single player - and wrote some mischief

Now a new answer:

Was some AI-Drivers on track? The new feature: "no reset by yellow flag" and if some other car near by yours is absolutely a step in the right direction. (target is IMO the completely remove of reset from single- and multi-player)

How to use both mouse axes for driving?

Quote from NetDemon01 :

This is already possible and is how I race all the time. You just have to select 'wheel' as your controller and then assign the corresponding axes. It really is not that hard to use at all.

The throttle and brake also needs to use the 'combined' setting so that the upper portion of the screen is throttle, and lower portion is brake, with an amount of deadzone in between according to how you set that up.

It solve all the problems below.

If you wanna use your mouse also in other games as joystick you can use: PPJoy allows to emulate a virtual joystick with your mouse. It solve also all the problems below.

• Freeze-button needed - with this button can u freeze the mouse steering in last position and fast click in the connections-list without ramming the wall.
  
• While typing a message go the steering wheel in straight position. This feature is not needed and should be disabled. Instead should the steering just be enabled while typing a message, then is it possible to type and drive without any accident. Edit: (problem is already solvable, because the mouse-xy-axis can be used in a wheel-setup.)
  
• A toggle key to toggle all controls. The release of the toggled controls can just made with the control button himself. (I suggested this already in an other thread, but maybe have it no developer noticed.)
  
• A little cruise control, special for us poor mouse-drivers, will be nice.
  
• Maybe a y-axis use for throttle and brake??? But the dutch racer-project shows that y-axis-use for throttle and brake is really hard to handle because the behavior of the steering axis is than a lot more difficult. Therefore i can understand because you don´t wanna use the y-axis of mouse for some controls. But maybe should it be a setup-option that everybody can test the behavior, and someone wanna maybe learn to drive with it, and i believe it need more skill, but it is possible to drive with it a world record, i guess. Edit: Thats already possible with a special-trick, and steering is not so difficult like i said!
