lol i never noticed that before lol

just to add on my previous post..

the following should have (if real cars and imo) standard solid discs

UF1
XFG
XRG
LX4
LX6
RB4
FXO
XRT
FZ50
BF1

the rest should have the racing spec ones.

just my opinion of cause.

not a problem but a preference..

can you change it so all the road going cars have none drilled discs and the race cars have drilled or grooved..

can i suggest these tho.. for the racing cars.

i assume (dangerous word these days) that all the car shadows have been updated?

im going to TMS for a service soon, so if you want i can take pics of the car.. let me know what bits you need and ill get you them.

This one maybe?

I like the Capri because it has a typical long bonnet, just like a Viper.

my neighbours would go mental if i did that. lol

The thing that would boost LFS is the Scirocco. Be happy with that. The devs got a (...)load of work to do to finish the Scirocco. Let alone say S2 wich isnt finished. And now people speak about S3. Really people should enjoy LFS now for what we have now! And dream about the future!

what we have now..

easy for you to say your a newbie here..

you registered on AB too?

cool

just registered about 2 hours ago.

best advice i can give is race someone faster than you..

Quote from jervinz :

Thanks for the link...will register on AB site.

im not what you would call a beginner as such, but i race now in cockpit, with manual everything, clutch gears the lot, and i also have the vibrations in the cockpit quite high so for me to go on a normal server i find myself too slow..

so i signed up for some fun racing in a view/situation like a real car.

you mean have the gear indicator off for the road cars and on for the GTR cars?

there should be more tollerance in the clutch for road going cars than the GTR/ single seater cars..

the 2nd sounds like a bomb going off..

a backfire is more like a quick sharp bang like a gunsound

i am looking forward to this, give me something to do while the missis is here, she can play aswell lol

not really no, its about a year old now,

only a 8800 GT aswell.

Quote from Luke.S :

Anyone noticed the awsomeness of those comps. They are static at 100FPS

i can get nearly 1000fps in lfs on some places of the track

Quote from Scawen :

Yes, it would be nice if you knew, and I'd like to know the future as well... but it's not possible!

I've explained a few times, that anything we mention that is planned, or a possibility, or something we might like to do at some time, soon becomes, in the eyes of many readers, a promise that we have made, and is later held against us when the feature is not done in the time scale imagined by the reader. So, why give people the stick to hit us with? This we have learned from some not very nice experiences. You should try to learn from your experiences!

I've stated those things that keep the ALPHA tag in LFS and our aim is to get past that stage, with various improvements and updates, probably various things that are not on this list. Big or small, I do not know, plans change.

In order to do things after that point, first we must get to that point.

I hope that helps. No matter how many requests are made, for me to reveal future plans, it's not going to change anything, I'm not gong to say, OK, now I've been asked 1000 times, I'll just say everything I'd like to do at some time in the future.

It's quite simple really, we want to keep updating the sim for some time to come. And we hope you enjoy the improvements.

thanks scawen but one or two things i would like to comment on here, is that i understand fully why you guys are not giving away alot of details.. but on the part where you said "we want to keep updating the sim for some time to come. And we hope you enjoy the improvements" questions start arrising... is it going to take so long to update we are 20 years older by the time it gets here..

i know that you havent got the man power that some of the big companies have got.. so i know you cant do the same volume of coding in the same timeframe.. and i appreciate that.. but some of the updates that are coming out, feels like wasted time where you could be working on something else..

like for example all the language updates.. the majority of the world speak english and for those that dont then yea, create a language... but i look on the langage screen and the percentage of people playing from that country makes you wonder what was the point.. maybe choose the main 5 countries / languages and have done with it.

take call of duty for example, i know its not a racing game but its a big success in its own right, and that is played by thousands of players and not all are english.. and you dont see a language section 4 pages long.

i guess i feel that time would be better spent on getting the game moving now instead of this little tweak here, this little tweak there.. yea they might be good but is it priority over something like the sound, graphics, immersion factor..

to me the revamp of the cars interior was brilliant work and impressive for the graphics engine we are using, but why not spend more time on things like this rather than put lots of hours work in on a language that 2 people are going to read.. (now your going to tell me it takes 10 mins )

but i think i see games like Grid, GTR2, Iracing and then LFS still looking like a game from 2002 with Dx8 engine makes me just depressed as its such a good online game, with some very good features i just cant help but think that if a game like GTR2 had an exceptional netcode and physics engine people woul start to choose that over LFS.

I would on the basis that its got real cars that i long to drive in real life, real tracks i have actaully raced on.. the models are great, sound is very good (yes i know its sampled) it has a good or reasonably good graphics engine.

Im rambling on now. i just wanna say i want to see lfs be as good as it can be not just a game that has a decent net code that makes it god for online play.

Cheers, if you want them in different colours just let me know.
