We've been following their developments quite closely over the last few months and I think there is still hope.

From what I have read, I do believe there will be a decent aspect of simulation components such as real time telemetry and tire deformation.

The Helmet cam seems to be a solid arcade component, the definition of Simulation Racing may be different to what we percieve as simulation.

The graphics look stunning though

Quote from Sorin FAUR :Anyone with a solution for me?

I can see no reason for the unit would not work with the motors removed, but the motors are used to calibrate the unit whenever it is plugged in. This should be no reason why you could not calibrate it once the unit has finished its start up process.

In the end you have nothing to lose, You can always buy another one at a worst case scenario.

To ensure that you get the correct Grease, a decent RC shop able to supply the correct stuff for you.

If you are replacing one motor it will be just as easy to replace the other one when everything is removed.

Best of luck either way

Was there anything in particular that you did not like about your Logitech G25? Would you consider getting a Logitech G27?


Did you end up throwing everything away or do you still have the pedals and steering wheel?

I have been using my Logitech G25 for a number of years and feel that I would continue using it for several years more. The other option would be to see if someone can sell you just the shifter? I am sure is set would come up for sale secondhand. No doubt the Fanatec GT3 RS it's an excellent wheel, but it may be a waste to not use your wheel/pedals if you still have them. Then

I would be interested to see your simulator set up if you would be interested in posting up some pictures

With all this discussion over the last 3 years of S3, I wonder what LFS might eventuate to if they ended up getting to S4 edition?

I will be very happy once Scirocco is in

"The Cog" was always the most impressive one imo, mainly due to the fact that none of it was CGi.

Both videos were very impressive, I like this one a lot for some reason

Quote from Swiss-Spirit :That's why that BMW doesn't even deserve to be called "Mini". It's not small at all!

Quote from unknownrisks :pole position driver, brilliant review mate, thankyou very much for the support, martin (StartWars) is enthralled by it, as he has just text me, poor guy is at work atm.... yes true, it would be ideal to just release it now, but that just wouldnt be fair without both creators being on the forum to recieve the critics and compliments.

-update: im having tea at 18:00 round his so it will be shortly after that :P

No worries mate. I've sent you a link of the page I built for him with instructions. He will be updating the page I am sending you to update the video.

I bet hes really excited. If you can message him and tell him I sent him instructions to update the page.

Quote from LFSn00b :I actually drove half of the UF1s on the movie :/

And yeah I've been shown a few clips of the movie and I must say be patient. When it comes, you'll blow your head because of the awesomeness of the machinima(or a LFS movie, ). I haven't seen the whole movie yet, so I have to wait for it too.

Trust me its well worth the wait

Martin did an awesome job and he should be ever so proud there are so many passionate racers looking forward to seeing it just as much as we were.

Just to build up the tension even more here is a review of the actual Video (without spoiling it).

As any LFS fan would know that this project has been going for some time now,

Collateral Collision in short, is a spectacular feat of creativity and enthusiasm. A full 12:50 minutes of high action paced all out battle that holds itself next to the classic (and remake of) Gone in 60 seconds end chase scenes.

The music score chosen could not be more appropriate, matching the scenes perfectly.

Its evident by the credits just how much effort this short film took to do, with drivers from the LFS community taking part in main roles and extras. I had the chance to be an extra (look out for the Yellow RB4 later on in the film) and I can say that the planning and preparation for this was true to the films end result.

I won't wreck anything in the chase scene but I can say that the 12.5 minute film is so action packed that you will be wanting more. An effortless flow between scenes through a varied but well chosen camera angles make this short film a real treat to watch.

Collateral Collision manages to balance the serious storyline with some intelligent comedy, it seems that the UF1 drivers have the worst luck with some phenomenal blockbuster crash scenes that are no less than epic.

No drivers were injured in the making of this film, no doubt there would have been some serious Force Feedback whiplash from all the drivers participating.

While speaking to the producer of Martin Bigg there was no chance this film was going to be rushed, each scene was matched and the audio track was thoroughly thought out, all sound effects were

Congratulations to Martin Bigg for developing this, it will remain an absolute classic in for a Car Chase Scene.

We can only hope it will be reduced, but from what has been rumoured it will be very similar in design to the G25 with a Shift Light and it could be released without Sequential shifter function from what i've seen.
