It has been said. Part of the deal of adding the car to the game was that it had to be free.

oo wow... bmw is awesome for letting it be free =D

Quote from DK_USA :

Hi, I've Been Trying To Become a Member of a Drift Team For A Little while Now And Am Wondering if I Could Join Also???

And What Cars Do You Use?? Because im Pretty Good With RB4 but i can Drift With XRT also.


Thanks, DK_USA

we mainly use the XRT and the FZ

Quote from -NightFly- :

,,,,though it seems like u get back on road again with this thread

yeah this thread finally got back on topic after that whole dispute -.-

good move for the dev's this will force some demo users(mainly drifters) to go to s2... and possibly new users because they got 3 different cars of different classes instead of 2 cars of different classes since the xrg and xrt are pretty much in the same class... but i will miss the demo d0r!ft0 scene...

wow... i dont feel bad for posting up my first movie a while back anymore... hahahaha... i had to close it early coz i couldnt stand watching it anymore... sorz >.< but you've come a long ways from your first vid and you corrected your mistakes so good job =]

is it over?? i wanted to give my 2 cents T_T

nice vid =] the songs just make you wanna go fast :P

Quote from banshee56 :

Now that I've set the standard for inclusion (or exclusion), I guess I need to kick Viruz (one of our other very good racers) out too.....http://youtube.com/watch?v=cHbtljGdd2I

hahahaha funny video!!! that was crazy!

umm... i think its obvious that this video was made for the sheer fun out of it and you guys who have your panties up in a bunch all the time need to pick it out. just cause you guys are prudes and kill joys to everyone you dont have to ruin anyone's fun. as you can see this video was clearly targeted for people that uses lfs tweak(i don't use it myself). but the title compelled me to come in here and i actually enjoyed the video and had a little chuckle from watching it. it was quite entertaining to see something with that much power drift around that track.

Quote from The Very End :

I don`t see any problems with that eighter, people are free to do what they want, and of course they can use their time/game on what they wants.
And btw, I was meaning ironic in the 2 posts before.

i think you mean sarcastic O.o?

Quote from HKS_ERALD :

sub?? how u do that! like made the car open its doors??

line32 rendered it

Quote from squidhead :

No they dont work well
1) the correct line is out - in - out, clipping the apex in the middle and almost clipping the grass with your rear wheels one entry and exit
2) the correct line gives you more speed throughout the corner AND in the next corner entry which gives you the ability to shave off speed by applying bigger angles...
3) more speed + bigger angle = smoke

hope this clears it up

ah i see... but the whole point of using the out - in - out clipping the apex line is to get the straightest line possible out of the turn... but in drifting i like to follow the curves of the track or turn... to work with the track while drifting and not fight it by cutting the through the turns(im sure you've felt that before if you've tried both)... i use what you say the "correct line" when im racing or doing some low angle drifts... but when im chillin on the track i mostly let the track "take me away like a feather in air"... iono that's just my opinion... yes i'm weird lol and usually relate a lot of things with whatever i'm feeling :P

P.S.
iono how you got owned by squid dizzles... he was talkin to kaw :P

Quote from squidhead :

at the end of the day - Niko is right...
plus he gave a constructive post for the guy to improve

yeah i know my movie is crap lol... thats why it was titled very quick drift movie... which pertains to my quick editing and if you read my post it was mostly out of blue, it wasnt planned or anything i just thought id make one, the footage is raw and no other footage scene's etc was taken so it was mostly a raw edit :P and as i said before im gonna actually work on a better video for my first one with carefully selected scenes, appropriate effects, and over all much better all around feel and look to it... and you guys dont have to be so nice its not like im gonna throw a tantrum for something someone says over the internet.. and opinions and constructive criticism are welcome...

from here http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=8405 and thanks again =] lol

lol @ you guys xD.. ahahaha seriously... anyways not all was the default camera views its more of half and half... and as i said before this was a quick edit i never claimed to be a master editor... and if you read my post i made it to mainly express how i feel or what i feel towards lfs drifting... i didnt wanna download sony vegas for now since i just wanted to make a movie to share real quick... and yes i was using the dds file for the old and misused track... its pretty cool i guess i've been meaning to get the files for the default track back but i've been too lazy :P oh and i don't see how the lines suck =/ it works well for me and it gives me pretty good angles but i guess i'm not good enough for the dorifto master...

oh heres another video for you guys... it's kind of an inside joke.. but here's how its like to be inside subby's xrt :P another quick vid i wanted to share it's missing some sound effects like screaming and the driving laughing... and i don't know if i got the music sounding like it's coming out of the radio... just an early warning its made from the windows movie maker crap again but i didnt really put any effects so yeah...

P.S. this is the last crappy vid i'm gonna be posting :P... i'll actually spend some time working and editing videos when i come out with my next one and that would be when i get a desktop, at the moment im using my laptop thats why the fps is low.

this is just a quick video i made with the first two laps i did at the silly project drift server... i wasnt really intending to make a video but i thought of making one when i was drifting... the editing isnt the best... i wasnt really going for the whole snazzy visuals etc but what i was trying to get across was the feeling or what i think of when drifting... in this vid i was under a diff racer name and my old xrt skin lol which i do when i go into hiding and want to be left alone when drifting =] im finally getting more comfortable using the logitech dfp =D

heres the youtube link

i say just do your best and don't let anyone bring you down... and good luck with the team =] just set your goals, work hard and you'll achieve it... see you guys on the track

Quote from Dennis93 :

nvm ull learn

lol... anyways thanks for the last comment =] theres still a few things i need to fix in the site but i've been way too lazy and busy to fix it T_T

apply in our forums...

www.shikanedrifters.com

we're currently full but we might be expanding

Quote from Jakg :

Reading this thread made my IQ drop 50 points.

this made me laugh xD... i havent looked into this thread for a while and all chaos broke loose... anyways... we're currently full with the motion of possibly expanding... but theres about 20 or so more people before rider that applied so i'm gonna be going through the list... but your advices will be accounted for so don't worry... i have enough trouble with the team lately and i dont really want to add anymore especially with the whole my team getting banned from our own server by someone i entrusted an admin password to... and i certainly do not want someone that will be racist, and very hostile to other drivers because that is not what being a shikane drifter is about... we are driver friendly and "noob" friendly as well and secret weapon is a testament to our being a friendly team... unless of course you come in and bring some fire... we'll put it out with gasoline =P anyways stop with all these arguing in the thread i dont want to get this thread locked... anyways to all that just came in don't let this turn you off from visiting our site, forum, and server... we usually don't have drama anywhere with our name on it... usually... seriously i dont get why there's e-drama on an online racing game for chrissakes xD

Quote from Riders Motion :

Hmm... just as I show an interest for this team, the website is down...

the old website is down... heres the new link www.shikanedrifters.com

Quote from Aquilifer :

Haven't used drift gauge, but I've understood it draws some kind of a gauge on top of the LFS screen. In that case I would say it is even 1 step harder to make than a normal insim app (technically, not referring to the amount of work)

No, the radio doesn't broadcast anything to others (not even song names). It just allows you to see what is being played (song name) and control the player. (especially useful for net radio)

EDIT: I think the drift gauge must be using outsim, not insim

yeah the drift gauge shows the degree angle and the g-force while doing a drift.

aww... that'd be a pretty sweet mod if you could broadcast it, not that it isnt already but it'd be pretty cool to broadcast to other drivers. but im sure that it'll run into some legality issues about mp3s.

thanks again for the reply i'll look into it and hopefully i can make my mod to work =]
