Just one thing too add, stop apologising!!!! lol


You've gone to effort of making some textures like many others, but unlike many others, yours are actually worth using

I wasn't sure wether it was my PC or the Texture problem, as you've confirmed it I'm more than confident your skillz will provail!!!!

Look foward to the update, NO RUSH!

Brilliant work, hope you carry on to do all circuits

Yes I do, and I hasn't struggled with any game yet at same settings (GT Legens DX9) Battlefeld 2 etc.....

Radeon X850 256mb --- Could be my gfx card, but only happens on these textures, all other texture packs I've tried have been fine....

I get the stitching problem in the middle of the track (Used to happen to alot of people on Aston) with your blackwood textures, it's not too big a deal and may well be my GFX card not quite rendering things quick enough!

It's a small white line up the middle of the road, but not a constant line, just at various point (line for 5 metres, stop for 20, another line)

I started this thread, I shouldn't have, I wish I didn't, and I wish I could close the thread.

Some people have a very blinkered view, other don't have a view and form opinions on what other say....

Some poeple race happily for months on FM servers, even years, then do something really stupid, get banned and start pointing the finger at FM community insulting them....

This thread was meant for honest opinion, I got a few, but it has simply turned into a flame-a-thon..... It needs to be closed ASAP....

I hope the LFS community now has the inteeligence to leave this thread alone, eveyone who has a problem, just let it lie, everyone who has read something bad AND NOW FORMED AN OPINION as I read in one thread, should goto the FM servers and actully try it yourself, you will probably be pleasently surprised!!!!

I would like to apologise to everyone for starting this thread, but it goes to show that some people can't form their own opinion, and some people can't understand others.

FM is a great team, and a fantastic community to be part of, most of the time, we have a great laugh and fun races.


Once again,
PLEASE DON'T POST ANYMORE IN THIS THREAD

Thank you

This post was by myself, and had nothing to do with FM team wanting anything. I wanted honest opinions and I think I got them! Thank you for you comments everyone, I feel this Thread now needs to be locked......

Quote from mrbogeyman :You created this thread to recieve feedback about your team and community, correct?

I would like to suggest then that you at least have patience in reading and digesting what people have written

Thats what I am trying to do, but drivers feel the need to get their point accross, so they reply to specific comments....

I am trying to get an overall view of our team, and I think we all know what that view is, but as Torben said (Somewhere in that post) we aren't all oval racers, so we will keep that seperate. The main problem people seem to have is the spamming on the servers, and Admin's who are too quick to ban? Take a look at our circuit servers and you will find a far different place to race.

You will also find a hughe community willing and eager to help other on our ventrillo sever (http://www.fragmaster.net/vt)

I wasn't fishing for compliments, I really wanted an honest opionion, and it has gone the way I expected it to, a few people dislike the drivers, most people think it's only an oval team, where as in truth several drivers don't go near the oval in a single seater anymore, and alot of people know nothing about the community behind the team, such as the ventrillo server which makes racing so much more interesting, being able to chat with the other racers while racing.....

The TeamName comes from another game in which the clan participates (Quake 3), but the clan also has teams for LFS, Quake 4, CounterStrike, World Of Warcraft etc........

The name has just been used for all games

WRC stages aren't always the same from year to year, they may be in a different part of the country, use different roads, or simply make different turns @ junctions.... A driver can't be expected to learn all the possible routes and memorise the correct one with one drive through @ slow speeds.....

Smaller Rallies keep the same configuration, so you will see some drivers without a co-driver (But there has to be a passenger, Sometimes they offer rides to spectators at their own risk!)

In america, haven't insurance companies taken to installing camera in cars (1 facing the driver to take evidence of his awareness and 1 pointing through the windshield to see what the driver see's), this lowers insurance premiums as it provides video evidence of what actually happens in a crash....

This is a good idea, and I think more companies should do this.......

When my Ninja was in for a service I had a Fazer, and allegedy wrote it off!

Ended up having to shell out £1000 in excess!

A few snapped plastic panels, snapped mirror and scratched frame, apart from that no damage, didn't think much of it, picked it up, drove it home, they picked it up and got a phone call saying it was a write off we want our money (Tip... NEVER EVER USED BRIDGE MOTORCYCLES!)

The worst part is, I want even riding the bike, started it, was just about to get on it when it slipped itno gear and flew off, my jacket got caught on the mirror and took me with it, couple broken ribs, bruising.....

Oh well, nevermind, at least I keep my no claims as it wasn't a riding accident!

Just stick to your line, if they are quicker they will overtake you, but if you feel uncertain about getting round any corner, take it easy....

Also, go and buy a wheel, after a week or so you will be going much smoother and quite a bit quicker!

GTR2 will look awesome, have a good damage model, and should be fun to drive, but let's face it, anyone who has drive LFS with a wheel, will not be dropping it for any other racing game!

Make one move, so yes, pull in front of the other car, but make no contact at all.

Take the inside line as you said, but there has to be enough room on the outside when exit the corner if they are still beside you, again, no contact...

Swerving on a straight is not defending your position, if they are overtaking you on a straight, they are quicker than you, let them past and jump in the slipstream, overtake on the next corner...

Thats just my opinion

Surely this thread was meant for capturing in race shots, not AutoX with ramps, everyone get 0 wheels then!

Very good point, I wasn't even thinking about oval races, you may well be right as certain oval's have a pit road, I was think of circuit racing (That this rule would affect, otherwise different codeing is need for tacks and ovals...)
