Quote from Bilcrossfoto :

The reversed grid is perfect! It's just up to us drivers to behave. We know it will be hard to overtake. Then don't crash into someone. It's easy! Keep reversed grid!

Thank you. Saved me time from typing the same.

An informational as well as promotional series about and for Live for Speed

In this first episode we explore and show the track environment of Rockingham inside the LFS racing simulator game.

Every layout of each track environment is driven around by the TEST DRIVER (an AI for this episode).

As well as every layout variation has it's own introduction and small little story.


I hope to receive a lot of feedback from current LFS drivers. As I want to represent LFS as best as possible.


Next up is the Blackwood environment, feel free to submit idea's for stories about each variation of the Blackwood Circuit.

First of all let me make clear that the original creator of this software is Soeren Scharf and the original topic is here:
https://www.lfs.net/forum/thread/14147-LFS-TV-Director%2C-Release-0-3

Now with that out of the way, let me introduce what I have packed/combined/made:

I guess most league racers and especially the hosts and streamers remember and might still use Soeren Scharf's TV Director 0.3. As it is a very well aged program, with minor efforts even working on the new Westhill V2, Blackwood V3 and Rockingham.


The original program comes without much content, and content as in .cam files and up to date .pth files are spread all over. Since LFS is still relevant, and thus this program. I decided to make a "complete pack edition" fully functional on the current LFS version.

My personal "patchnotes" for this special edition:

10.01.2020, Version 0.3 (2020 content version)
- added .pth (path) files for every current track + several open-configs
- added .cam files for every current track + several open-configs (WE4 and WE5 combo's excluded for now)
- added ALT .cam files for various tracks as well
- created simple .txt tutorial to create your own custom camera's
- created a simple .txt guide how to use open-config .pth files and how to create .cam files for them
- created a list of all .cam files included and credited original creators and editors where known


With my "Up-to-date" update package, this program can now be used on EVERY track and track combination. (apart from WE4 an WE5 combinations for now).


And eventhough it's basically TV Director 0.3 with a complete content package and some minor tutorials added. I feel we can use a new topic.

Also I would like to invite anyone to submit their newly made .cam files that are not yet in this package in this very topic. You can do so by renaming the .cam to .txt and uploading it as an attached file.


As I made a few .cam files myself, mainly for the updated and new tracks. I will soon also make posts "showing-off" each .cam file for tracks. Starting with Rockingham soon TM.


Without further uphold, the complete package is attached below as a .zip file. Simply unpack, launch, configure, connect and enjoy!



Once more all respect and credits to Soeren Scharf for this very well aged piece of software.

After re-reviewing the protest against Car #63 by the independent stewards not linked to any involved party.

The conclusion is simple: Even with the old flawed and definition lacking rulebook. Driver of car #63 breached rule 6. of the Racing Rules code.

The rulebook stated nothing about a protested party having to be included in the stewards process.

And even if the penalty would be (but isn't) turned undone, the stewards team would breach rules 6. and 1.2 of the Basic Rules code themself at the time of incident.

Therefor the decission and penalty point on the license of Car #63 is final and can't be undone.

This specific case, as it was the first one concerning the old rulebook, we considered to possibly be undone, and was therefor on hold untill further notice. But the clear explanation is above this.


For future cases, we just released a new and incredible rulebook, that will make things clear to and for everyone. So that in the future, anything is clear at any time, once you've read through it.

Round #2 skin for car #10

Quote from AeoIus :

How is this still alive Although I'm very happy it still is

It has been ages since I played LFS as I saw no development/progression after playing for years and people just left and servers were emptying. Plus I never got the knack for driving the RWD cars in LFS which really limited my options. Although I can still very clearly remember racing in Aston with the FXO GTR having the time of my life against RWD cars as my corner exits were amazing and that is still one of my fondest racing and gaming experiences

I just picked up racing again on AC after buying a new G29 wheel but the online experience so far does not compare to LFS although I am better at driving the RWD cars and am definitely in the learning stage again.

If nothing else I also need to thank ScaViEr for bringing simracing in my life as an accessible and incredibly fun experience that I still treasure.

Nice to here

For historic reasons like HQ replay recordings and what not. A skinpack of all submitted Round #1 skins is attached to the OP.

Protest time over. Topic closed

Quote from mikey 1990 :

protest against number car 63 s.silva for divebombing at race 2 at lap 12

(this protest is make up by number 99 m.baggen with an ok from number 13 trr hydro18nl

After investigation by the stewards team.

Car #63 S. Silva receives his 1st warning for causing avoidable contact, causing Car #13 Waslander/Hydro18 to lose positions.

Car #63 now has 1 penalty point out of 3 on his license.

Once a driver reaches 3 penalty points, a driver is excluded from the next 2 races.

Read Rulebook before you protest another driver

Quote from Bilcrossfoto :

Thanks. Then i think i understands the rules better.

No worries.

For example:

Look at the replay of my Run, I took every legal cut basically.

Including the big grass part, and the uphill grass banking.


Then you have an idea of where to cut. And where not. I am slow but I do every allowed cut.

Or look at wrcking his run. We basically reworked the original SS01 layout by McGherkin to be up to Dutch Rallysport standards as well as prevent cutting in places, and allow it in other places.

Team Rock Racing offers 1 dedicated race server which we'll use for every round: TRR. Racing #1
This server will always run the series password and is for registered drivers only. "TRR2020"

Besides server #1 we also run TRR. Racing #2 and TRR. Racing #3

#2 and #3 will always be public and run the next 2 combinations to practice for the series.

So currently #1 runs AS1R with UF1, #2 WE2 with FBM and #3 runs RO8 with FXR.


Join in the fun!

Quote from Bilcrossfoto :

Before i post my replays now. How much can we cut. exempel. The corner at the gas station. Over the big grass. Can we cut over there?

All that is not going "completely off course" is allowed if there is no objects clearly blocking you from doing so.

Your 2 examples are ok.
