Its quite a tough design which will take a lot of skill, time and paitence (skinning LFS helmets are comparatively harder than the cars). Maybe someone will make an attempt; but no need to bump it so often since its only a few hours since you made the thread. Give a few days...

Good luck!

Comparatively I've not been around for long, but this is first I'm hearing about sound errors (other than the people who do shift+n without realizing).

Do you get this error on start-up?
Quote :Error initialising sound

Does the Windows sound scheme stuff work? i.e. Startup/shutdown stuff. See if you can still select/play the those sounds from relevant menu (I'm not a Win7 user, dunno where everything is) - all this from a thread that I dug up from 2006. http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=10024

If you dont get the above error its probably something else. If you do - try out the stuff suggested. Hang in there; MadCatX or someone will be [hopefully] replying soon!

Do you hear sounds from other programs (preferablly non-Microsoft/Windows software), i.e. a when you play a YouTube clip via Firefox/Chrome?

Probably the dreaded spiking. Is it sill within warranty? If so, call Logitech.

If not, you might have to take it apart and clean it up / replace the pots. / use a third party software to correct it. Goes without saying; don't attempt to open it up if its still within warranty.

Search the forum for Logitech pedal spiking (and maybe Google as well), you may come across what needs to be done...

Haha, fuel is free! Fill 'em up!

Garage > Info > Fuel Load at Start > [in % of fuel tank capacity]
Or fill up via a pit stop (change the % of fuel to add in pit stop via the F12 menu/pit instructions).

Quote from scipy :didn't know if i should post this here, but it's a problem in y19 too so.. I'm gonna bring it up here. During a race, if you pull up the f12 menu and request some setup changes (like more negative camber in the pitstop - because you might have 1 of the suspension arms damaged and the middle layer of the tire is heating up the most) - as soon as you stop it fixes all the damage (even though the damage repair is set to no!). Please fix this as bf1 races are almost impossible with losses of up to 20 seconds on fixing damage (and damage is picked up even on the straights, and obviously on realistic curbs).

So, if the damage repair is set to no and we request some setup changes like pressure or camber, even wings - make it not fix everything and then do the setup adjustments. Please.

Quote from Scawen :i understand the issue but it's not an easy enough change to be done for patch z. Apart from the reported bugs, i have some other urgent and important things to be done and tested before z.

The way the cars set themselves up in lfs at the moment, relies on the car being in perfect condition. This is not logical in a real world sense but it's a limitation of the way it's programmed at the moment. I do expect that can be fixed in the future. I would expect that to be done around the time when wings could break off instead of bending, and lose aero, etc... General damage system improvements.

I think there was another discussion on this topic when Scawen made the change "Wear limit for changing tyres can be set to 100% (never)" last year after scipy input, but cant seem to find it (or I'm imagining stuff...).

Hmm, when you installed the Logitech software did you complete the calibration? If I recall correctly you will be required to press all the pedals and you'll see an indication of pedal travel; did that bit work correctly?

You might be able to check those under the Game Controls in Control Panel (might be differnt in Win7).

Since you said it works great, I assume that all other pedals are working fine? i.e. brake pedal just as it is supposed to?

In the Controls > Axes/FF menu, when you press the throttle pedal the the corresponding "yellow bar" move as expected?

Hi!

In LFS' Options > Controls > Axes/FF > Throttle - click on invert 0/1 to correct it.

Something similar might apply to rF. Not quite sure about that though!

Nope.

Jamie's been banned on and off over the years. There are funnier LFS-related stuff. But hey, humour is in the mind of the <enter-appropriate-word here>.

Anyway, my nomination.

Works fine for me.

Have you tried clearing the cache and trying again? Or maybe via another browser?

Save a screenshot of the error report as .jpg (although .bmp should be supported here in the forum).

If you can't upload the image to the forum for whatever reason - use an file sharing site to upload the image and provide us a link to view the file (i.e. http://imageshack.us/)

Hopefully the contents of the error file will show whats causing the error and how to rectify it.

Anyone seen this for real? Literrally translated as "death well", horrific stuff: the whole darn wooden contraption shakes and vibrates. I've seen on in Sri Lanka where they had a cyclist in there with the motorcycles and cars :|

You need to have LFS credit to use hi-res skin downloads (1024x car skins or 512x helmet skins). 1000 hi-res skin downloads for £1. Low resolution skin downloads are free. You can get more info about this if you click on 512 and then click on 1024 option in the relevant section (an info screen will be displayed).

Hi!

Other than your friend's, can you (and him) see other driver's skins? If you cant, you will have to turn on skin-downloads from LFS' Options > Misc > Car Skins Downloads to 512 / 1024.

If this setting is already turned on, make sure that the file name of the skin that you uploaded is the same to that of the skin that is in your LFS/data/skins folder (if the file names dont match you will still see that skin on your car, but other users wont be able to see it - usually you will get an error message from LFSW stating that that skin is not currently uploaded to LFSWorld).
