Yeah, I will be looking out for that!!! Probably every time my skins_x or skins_y gets over 500 mb, I will clear it! That way, if people stopped using some skins, it won't take up computer space!!!

Just a question for Scawen:

Not to make you hurry up or anything (cause the more test patches there are the better), but is there a planned number of test patches before patch z comes out?

Or is there more like a point which you want to reach (some objective you want to achieve) before you do patch z?

Thanks!

So you cannot use 2048x2048 online? This seems like the obvious answer (and I realize I am looking very stupid saying all of this).


S k i p p y - SAME HERE! Best racing game I have EVER played!!!

Hi,

Well, I finally managed to convince my parents to let me get S2!!! The XRT is definitely worth the wait! The demo people don' deserve it!

Well, here is my question. I payed an extra 3 pounds for the skins stuff. I understood hi-res as 2048x2048. But when I tried to upload that big a skin to lfs world, it said that the biggest that could be uploaded was 1024x1024. Why is this?

Also, I wanted to know if it is necessary to upload the skins to lfs world. Can I just have it in my skins folder and everyone else see it? I am pretty sure the answer is no, but I felt stupid and decided to ask!

Well, that's it!

Thanks!!!

OH, yeah, sorry about that. I completely forgot that it could be that. Never mind me (or my past post that was raving about bad demo'ers). Now I really feel like one of the stupid demo'ers!!!

Hi all i use the XRT in blackwood my best personal is 1:27.08. i use a mouse and keyboard would it help if i used a proper steering wheel and pedals? any other tips are welcome!

Wish I could use that car. But until then, BAM! You just got owned! At least think before you post. I swear, the demo'ers make me feel stupider EVERY single day!

Quote from LiveForBoobs :

How could you get your parents to let you buy a wheel and not the game??

Technically it is not my wheel. My brother is getting it for his birthday. But he only plays PS2 games and said that if he does not like it, I get it! He said that like a month ago. Soo, he tried the wheel at his friends house and did not like it at all. Said that the dual-axis was easier to control with. So, when the wheel arrives (bought online yesterday), it is basically mine to use! He doesn't want to use it, but my parents won't get him the Xbox360 so he still got the wheel!!!

Quote from ImportFantasy :

Im feeling a bit lazy to tell you the specs to my pc but I have a intel e6750 @ 2.66 GHz and a nvidia geforce 8600gt.Nah i'm not using bloom.It kinda screwed up on me so I haven't bothered to fix it.Just some modified reflections thats all .

Three more questions:

1. When you say it screwed up on you, what do you mean? Screwed up the LFS files or game graphics or what?

2. What do you mean by modified reflections? Also, if it is not too much of a problem, can you upload those modified reflections on to megaupload or rapidshare or something. I really want amazing graphics and you seem to be the best!!!


3. When you don't feel as lazy, no offence intended, can you PM me your specs. Also please include around what fps you get in single player.

Thanks for the quick answer before as well!

Part One was better than part two, but both are amazing!!! I wish I had that skill! And you should do more scenes like the last one in part one. Fast action with amazing camera angles! I have seen the first one like 10 times!!! Okay, more like five, but still...

Can't wait for part three!

I actually find the easiest way for me to drift is brake drift. Or maybe I am thinking of the wrong thing. This is what I do for all the turns:

1. Brake before turn.
2. Just before turn, slam the accelerator.
3. Turn late into the turn.
4. The car should drift with any drift setup.
5. Countersteer
6. Just as turn ends let go of accelerator and than go (this is so the car does not spin out).

Is this brake drift? And I am not using clutch or e-brake at all.

Hey ImportTuner!

What are your pc specs? I am getting a new pc soon and LFS of your PC looks amazing! Are you using any addons on your LFS either? I think you are using bloom. Please tell me the specs! That LFS is my dream now! LOL!

Quote from Rotary :

... we will be playing S2 Beta instead of Alpha...

LOL!!!!!! Yet, I would not at all be surprised if that was not true!

So, if I have been getting a black screen, and I turn the AA off, bloom will work?

And also, where do I turn off the AA from? I know these are stupid questions, but I really don't want to mess up something and have to download LFS again. Also, in case that does not do it alone, how do I turn of AF?

Becuase I have a really slow internet connection. Sooo, it takes a loooooong time to upload the pics to the forum. If I upload to photobucket, I can always use it! So, here is one last try. If it doesn't work, than that's too bad:

That is it! My last try! If this does not work, just forget about it. There is no need to see the bad drifting anyway. LOL!

Last edited by shashdev, Wed, 21 May 2008 02:12. Reason : I added a link with the [IMG] and [URL] stuff. Just to make sure both were there! I can see both of them!

Sry, I had put the URL's but something messed up. I think I got it right this time. If it still isn't right, please post another message and I will just make a new post with the URL's for the images!

Try to put some flare into these! They are just basic drifting pics!







So, try to get these if you have time! Some of these have managed to blow my mind away!

About as basic as it gets. Nothing special here, just me drifting in one players showing my brother how to do it! He catches on pretty fast and one of those is it! Guess which one (it is the worst one in my opinion, but I am not about to insult my drifting, lol).







Yeah, so guess which one is my brother. And I hope you liked the images!

I put it on and I get that black screen. Now I read the topic, but I don't have any idea what AA is. Please enlighten me on the subject and thanks!

Okay, is there a link for the DEMO version? Seeing as that is down as well.

With great power comes great responsibility.



And bills.

AGAIN:

LOL (yet soooo true)!





Also, I have a few questions.

1. Umm, I know that there is a hi-res pack around for LFS. I have found it! Now, here is the question: Are there hi-res cars in that too or just hi-res tracks, wheels, etc.

2. If the previous answer is no, is there a hi-res car pack?


EDIT: NVM, I was stupid not to read the hi-res stuff first. No need to answer the questions!

Like I said in another thread: They will eat normal drivers for breakfast and want some more.

LOL (Yet soooo true)!

Holy crap. I just looked at the lap times the people for FBM contest are doing! They would lap me like 15 times in the 50 lap race!!!

Sweet, a cracker got caught. I hate it when stupid demo people ruin the reputation of all demo racers! Can't wait for patch z when all racers have to have a username on here! NO MORE PEOPLE USING THE NOS MOD!!! That is going to be awesome! I already use patch y19! BTW, how can I catch the crackers? Just see if someone says it? Cause I could easily screw over a lot of people with that!

Before I download it, can demo users use it on demo servers? Or is that only going to work on S2 servers?

Also, now with patch y19, there are S2 servers, that demo racers can run on. Can the cruise be run on that or is it not possible?

I am actually going to be getting a Logitech DFP in the near future (less than a month) and then I will try to control the FBM again. I spent about 15 laps on it yesterday, and I was getting laptimes of about 1:20, while everyone else on the server was getting 1:16-1:18 laptimes. They were freaking amazing!
