The only thing I haven't tested is whether Nvidia's control panel will allow tweaking of LFS, I'm just using nHancer still because of the bug in the old NV driver, I'll test it some other time, now that everything works, I'm creating a restore point, and not messing with anything.

Nvidia Control panel > Manage 3D Settings > Select a Program to Customize > LFS.

hope your new drivers has this

Scawen what about to do an improvement - when you press the button for lights, the lights will be on until you press the button again. IMO its not hard to make it...

But if you have something more important to do, OK.

What button? What lights?

Nice to see a fellow American interested in rally. Sadly i have finals the rest of the weekso I probably won't be on. Good luck though.

Defrag and take off limewire - ideally uninstall it and use bitlord.

I'm sure this has been said so..

Search button?

Consistancy is a greater attribute of a racer than WRs, imo. Just slow it down for a few laps until you get the hang of it, then speed it up a little at a time.

Oh, and press 4.

Quote from shashdev :

Yes, I get the point guys. I thought I asked nicely not to flame me. It was after all, just a suggestion. Anyway, as I expected, this idea is not the most popular. And also, I said that I was happy with the demo. I never said the game was bad and am very happy with what the demo has currently. Again, this section of the forum, is just meant for the suggestions, isn't it?

Please stop the flaming. If you want to say why you think it is unfair, please go ahead, but no one needs 10 replies saying, "This is retarded" in 10 different ways. Please, use constructive criticism.

BTW, I have to money to buy the license. My parents just won't let me spend $47 on a game. They say I would just be wasting my money. Looks like I will be in the demo for some time.

Tell your parents to go to GameStop and look at new games there $60

Anyways, I didnt mean it as flame. The developers have worked their butts off for >6 years to get from nothing to patch Y in s2. They didn't need to make an unlimited playing time demo free of charge for anyone. But it is not meant to be a substitute for the game. They need to make money somehow, and if they give the demoers more choices, more cars, more tracks - they will ultimately lose money and have to stop creating updates for LFS. Putting in an FZ5 to drift / race will just result in less money for the devs.

The world revolves around money - just put it that way. Plus demoers in general don't deserve it they way they acted about the XRT taken out and given an open wheel car. I only race the demo cars at CTRA enen though i spent $50 on s2.

Quote from shashdev :

Now, first of all, let me just say one thing. I love LFS. If this suggestion does not go through, I am still going to play LFS everyday. Now on to the suggestion:


First suggestion:
Why not just give us the XRT in Y19? Yes, many of the S2 drivers did not have the chance, but maybe with a better demo (not that the current one is not amazing) more S2 drivers will get up there and compete with the best and give some more competition!

Now, all of my reasoning is based on basic math. Hopefully I have not messed anything up horribly! If I have, please point it out quickly, so I can feel completely stupid!

If we get the XRT, we will have 4 cars out of 20, right? So:
4/20 = 20%

Also, we get one track out of seven tracks, right? In these tracks, we get three variations out of twenty-nine, right? So:
3/29 ~ 10.34%

So, using basic math, to get the percent of the game we would have, we just take the first percent (percent of cars) and the second percent (percent of track variations) and multiply them together. So:
.2 x .1034 = 2.06%

That means we would only get 2.06% of the game if you gave us the XRT in addition to what we have right now! As of the moment, we have 1.55% of the game. You are giving us an extra .51% of the game. Is that really that much?

Again, I would like to mention, I am not trying to be greedy about this. But I doubt you would find many demo racers who were against getting one extra car (that many have driven before).

Second Suggestion:
Now, here is something else that could also be done. It would still only give us 2.06% of the game.

Instead of giving us the XFG and the XRG, which have almost the same speeds, why not give us another car and take one away? Here is what I mean:

Give one of each level of car:
XFG
XRT
FZ50 (looks coolest, IMO)
FBM

We get one of each type, and yet we are still only getting 2.06% of the game with all variations included.


Review
See, us demo racers see how it is to drive different types of cars, and still get basically 1/50 of the full game content.

Now, I fully understand why the S2 license holders would be against this. You have the full game, and you did not get to try 4 cars in the demo! Why should these new racers get a chance when you didn't?

I don't have any reply for that. You are right, we have no more right than you. But if we do get one extra car, are we really going to hurt you? You are just letting the demo racers try one more car, giving them yet but another reason to buy the S2 license! See?

Basically, I just wanted to give the demo racers one more car. That is all I want (though it is quite a lot even for me). I understand if you don't do it, but by looking at the math, it just seems to me, that if the demo racers get another car, it is just .51% of the game more.

Please consider this option, and in the minds of almost all the demo racers, LFS will have taken a huge leap forward!

And please, when you comment, make it thoughtful and please do not flame me. This is again, just a suggestion. Please criticize constuctively.

And I hope you liked my idea!

Buy the game. IIRC its only .... bah nvm i forget the prices. Put it this way, its cheap enough that I can get it.

Get the heck out of my thread, you can't post your product in someone else's wheel thread. I am reporting this.

Report yourself for trying to scam someone with overpriced rubbish that probably doesnt work while your at it lol.

Quote from TenTimes :

so why not just allow to also reposition the side mirrors. Keep the same single view and detail level, but allow you to drag the far mirror into the car and your FOV.

I know it's not realistic, but neither is having to turn your head to see the mirror (at least to detect movement).

Love the racing and thanks to the developers for their ongoing support.

Because IIRC you have to turn your head in real life to see that mirror.

Quote from evilpimp :

More power + less weights = Harder to control.
True. But why not make the tires wider then? Or do they HAVE to keep the same as the real one?

If you change the tires of the real one what is the point of updating it?

Okay this may seam outright retarded, but is there a way of displaying lap times and other data like speed on an old alarm clock screen? I know very little about outgauge, and stuff. Im just wondering if it would be possible.

i think he needs template.

Quote from jbright84 :

Hi All.

I have just bought an S2 licence for my son. He unlocked the game and went to play but an error occured whilst joining a server. It said SKIN: READING ERROR 2. I have put the extra amount into my account when I purchased the S2 Licence.

I cannot see the skins of any other cars.
Any help would be much appreciated.

JB

You have to put at LEAST 3 pounds into your account, not just 1 or 2

Hope this helped

Well, why not.

Oper, i know ur sick of some members that post nonsense, but really? just ignore them - they bought s2, are part of the community and are never going to give up their bad habits

IMO offline racing isnt as important because atm the racing line isnt ideal for sprint races or being fast. online ftw.




Wow i love logitech's hold music

Quote from dawesdust_12 :

What basis do you say that on?

A black momo is still a decent wheel, and it's far from being the best
a DFP is a decent wheel, and it's far from being the best
G25, decent wheel, and the best consumer wheel, but far from the best best

Best of the best isn't always needed, you just need to find something that fits your needs and expect that if you pay 10$ for some shit Madcatz wheel, that it'll be shit, and games will struggle with it, etcera.

THE worst off topic four page thread i have ever seen

360 controller and can't hold throttle and brake at same time

not "g25 is better than dfp!"


someone please close thread?

Quote from Ian.H :

Why doesn't it deserve a response like that? If the poster doesn't possess the brain power to do a friggin search, then bollox.. they deserve all they get. It's not my fault that this forum has attracted the lowest of the lows in regards to intelligence lately.

Linking the fool to a specific thread is pointless. They could have done that themselves either by manually searching or by way of the auto-search (which even idiots should be able to fathom out, but it would appear not). I'm not going to spoon feed people who are too lazy to fsckin help themselves... if you want to, knock yaself out.. I'm not changing the way I am for these retards.

If these types of people took my (or anyone elses) words to heart and quit, that certainly isn't a bad thing(tm) considering what they're likely to be bringing to the table.



Regards,

Ian

Ever stop to think for one little second that not everyone has experience in forums? And not everyone reads the lfs forums every day reading the entirety of every thread? I agree with whatshisface that people like you are ruining the community, not "noobs".
