Quote from Flying Squirrel :

. Even in competitions, there is only limitations on R vs street tires, and there are many classified street tires that would be comparable to the Supers.

not true i'm afraid,not in all the race classes this is allowed.
in Holland even the formula ford had to race on "street" tires in the '80
it's all depending on the rules of that race class

mk 2?
golf mk2 ?
escort mk2 ?
elise mk2 ?
?????????????????????????????????????????????

you got me
I'm convinced
like you say ;as long as the cars add something to lfs

i also don't drive mini anymore, i tuned and maintained them myself and didn't had the time and money any more
still miss them

Quote from Woz :

Then you have not seen many forms of racing or drivin many different types of cars.

Here are a few that spring to mind wwithout even trying...

Le Mans (As already stated), Aussie V8s, old 70s muscle cars, trucks (Yes that is serious), Prototype C, Nascar...

Thats 6 new types already.

prototype c is the old Le mans
we already have front, rear and mid engined cars /front, rear and all wheel drive/beginner and advanced cars (that is how i look at it).
you can't have a look a like for every car there is
what does the aussie v8,muscle car and nascar add to the cars there are already there(the trucks ;yes you are right) then you want all the old cars? '30 ,'50 ,'60 ,'70 and '80 (formula ,saloon ,Le mans...)
i don't say i don't like them (i do:nod but what kind of race feeling do you mis: or just a V8 saloon?
a well everybody has his own apinion and /or view about the things



ps i that your car

i must admit ,when i race i notice the other cars but i don't really look at them.

Quote from Woz :

This is something that has come up many times before. There is a simple way to say why.

There is one person that makes all the 3d models. Would you prefer he creates more models that bring nothing more to LFS than looks. His time is better spent on car model brings that bring NEW types of car s to LFS.

The same person also creates the tracks. So you can see, its more about how to best deploy time.

Hope that helps

in my opinion almost every type of race car is already in lfs.
(ok this can revoke some reactions but it's my opinion, i only mis a Le mans type of car)
thats the same about the circuits; there are already lot of variations
if somebody wants an different car it's mostly about how the look.
it's less time consuming to make a different body then to make a new car.

same problem but.......
the posted setup workt!
thanks

what if.... there where different body's on the same chassis
then you could race against different looking cars who are still equal to each other.
a different grill and headlights can make a difference
in real life it is done and a lot of cars look a like
the only problem i can think off is the difference in down fore and air Resistance

please don't reply with just a no, at least explain

a turbo boost more air/fuel mixture in the cylinders.
a 1000cc car can than perform like ,lets say, a 1500 cc car (well in the '80 this kind of calculation was used to have a "fair" race between cars with and without turbo in Holland:really

thanks
i find it difficult to look objectify to my own skins
did you mean that to all or mostly the green blue (koelmy) and pearl skin
i tried some metallic/ flake at the koelmy skin and a bit off pearl like color effect to the pearl one
i see what you mean about the logo quality

DON'T SHOUT!
i don't force ,i ask!
why did you think i forced?
and i thought this was a normal question , it looks like this is the first skinning competition and I'm just a few Mont's around.
so how should know what to do? ( OK now i do know)

please understand that people who come from not English speaking countries can use the wrong ways in saying things

these were my first releases so when the voting is over i like to get some comment on what i did wrong/good .
should i make a other topic then?

i do see a lot of the same designs in my opinion

Quote from geeman1 :

Modding only works on paper. In practice it will just end up being a big mess.

can't agree with that , look at gpl there are a lot of good mods and addons , in fact thats what keeps it still alive

I'm ferry satisfied with these anwers and do anderstand the short anwers better ,aldo i think its better to say:_i think that_,or_ probely not_ instead of :no

HAVE FUN and hope to see you on the S2 tracks soon!

ok i understand that but sometimes people reply with only a simple : no.
and nothing else ,no explanation or a probably or something


ok most people do reply normal

I'm new to lfs but i see in allot of replies people giving a answer like the are a developer.
there are only three ,i though.
so how can people say yes or no to questions about development of the game when they are no developer?
i can't give an example becouse than i wouldt attack peole i think

when i buy my license i don't aspect to have bought the right to interfere with the development (only give my opinion or suggestions)

i dint mean it like a attack but do think some peoples ideas are to quickly and harsh knocked down in this manner.
(and when i was a developer i would be offended )

this is better http://forum.racesimcentral.co ... 8&highlight=handbreak

look around here I'm sure you Will find what you're looking for
http://forum.rscnet.org/forumdisplay.php?f=186

it Say's the lx 6 and lx4 are based on Lotus 7, Caterham Super Seven, Westfield Sport 2.0.
but all that type of cars are based (copy's ,look a like....) on the lotus 7!

when people rip a DVD/CD or copy a game its illegal .........
thats normal because of all the work and creativity of the authors
isn't this the same?
he put a lot of work and creativity in this skin and someone seems to use it whiteout permission.
just want to say that i understand his "anger" ( but didn't you ever copy something yourself ).

couldn't you do that yourself?
i mean it must be really weird if someone has your name in his skin name to!
when i buy my license(i will) I'm gonna use your idea

wel a good time to make my first public skin release i think
hope you like it
