Just a little video made out of boredom.

Looks great I love the activity feed on the main page. And the forum integration looks neat. Well done!

What comes to mind when reading the title is an N/A XR touring car. Slicks and a high performance N/A 2.0. Just a few adjustments away

Sounds like a good idea to me. Instead of making the steering linear to the stick, make it work kinda like keyboard steering.

Quote from Keling :Can we combine joystick and a mechanical grid? Should be the best of both worlds.

We can't but ask logitech or fanatec.

Quote from Keling :Not really on topic but this should be easy with a joystick shifter right?

Joystick shifters suck though

Quote from edzhjus :Is that so? Then why in real life this happens when you switch gears wrong?

Not to mention what happens if you switch to reverse at speed and viceversa.
:doublefacepalm:

.:triplefacepalm:.
1. You linked to a video of BeamNG in the original post, not IRL videos.
2. BeamNG does not feature over reving damage or transmission damage. It only features soft body collision damage.
3. LFS features over rev engine damage as shown in the two IRL videos you linked.
4. Switching to reverse at speed in LFS doesn't provide any advantage so there is no reason to give penalties for it.
5. A real effect of incorrect shifting would be gear grinding, however this can't be simulated because you can't trough software programming lock out a gear from the actual real physical gearbox controller.
6. This idea is pointless
.:4xfacepalm:.

You know that beamNG doesn't have transmission damage for incorrect shifting?
And no engine damage for over reving? You do know that LFS has this already?

On the bright side; it's quite easy to make the strip longer.

But on the other hand; it's probably not that much fun after all. If you wanna top out your car, just crank the final up to 5:1

Use the effort for something better imo. Like the new tyre physics or a naice mountain track.

even though a big europe map would be pretty cool and all, I don't think this idea is fit for LFS. The player base is too small to diversify the game too much with too many different tracks (and too large tracks). The best is to keep it at a quite few available tracks with features to please as many people as possible.

A game to recommend for you is TDU. Sure it doesn't have as accurate handling / feeling as LFS does but it's not too bad for just cruising around. The game is definitely enough to have fun and the map isn't all of europe but a remake of hawaii (which is big enough to be fair)

Quote from Cyb3rHer0 :The game will be very interessant if in off-line mode, you can buy some performance upgrades to your car, like:

Engine
Transmission
Suspension
Better Tires (Grip or Drift)
Brakes
...

that's my suggestion, and will be very interessant if needs an specific car to some parts.

Or:

You need to do a custom car, and a custom setup to do this.

I hope you read this and take it seriously.

Thanks for your attention

Transmission is free in the setup menu
Better brakes are also free, in the setup menu
Suspension upgrades are also, you guessed it, free in the setup menu.
Better tyres can be achieved with tweak. Some cars such as XRT comes with grip/drift tyre options without tweak.

And lastly. Engine; tweak.

Quote from squidhead :Butthurt? Me? In somebody else's thread? No. What I am is disgusted by you, talentless, cheap hack.

Guy puts effort in his driving and video, posted it here and all you jackass do is trying to ride his hype (hype, that's rich for a dead forum, but doesn't change the fact.).

I guess we're even then. Since you make a big deal out of pretty much nothing and start talking down on people. Do you really think that it would of made any difference if I made a new thread? "Trying to steal hype" please... It's not like he paid any money to start this thread, or that you get any more views from posting a video as a response rather than making a new thread about it. Anyways, I'm gonna leave this one to you now, because you obviously just enjoy smack talking on these forums anyways.

Did you ever figure out how to make cars show up in Blender? That part of the tutorial is unclear. Or I'm just stupid.

EDIT: http://puu.sh/57hTD.png

I am stuck at halfway. I press Control + L and select FZ50 but it doesn't show up..

If you're using blender 2.49 there is a drop down at the top of the window where you got all the cars listed.

Nice.

Something that could be done is to apply lerp (linear interpolation) to the replays so it blends over between the updates. (only optional in replay mode though or it would mess with collisions and multiplayer performance)
It wouldn't be 100% accurate, but it would be smooth.

Quote from Gutholz :looks like you installed mods, the steering wheel, center console and some other parts look different.
Maybe some of the modded files were broken?

DDS mods have nothing to do with that.

Quote from stevenkelman :

Cars:
Drift: The XRT is a perfect drift car but i would love to see some powerful beast made specifically for drifting something similar to a silvia s13 or something along the lines of that!

Hillclimb: Some small but powerful single seater.

Race: i Would love too see a cra the same as the xfg but more power and a bodykit?

Also rain, rain would be a brilliant feature to the game!

Cheers

I'd want an XFG with a 1.5 or 1.6, sport tyres and 180-200hp (still N/A). Kind of a middle car inbetween the XFG and XFR.
Would probably give the TBO class a match at cornery sections.

And a more powerful edition of the XRT would be nice with a front mount intercooler and more boost.
