thanks guys.

Quote from Bosse :

Just wondering, where's the demo racer that shouldnt be on Fern Bay?

i think he is hinting at the amount of crashes.

Quote from Ryanry64 :

Nice video, only tiny complaint would be perhaps a little too much slomo. But that's probably more personal preference. 8/10

i actually have to agree on the slomo...it is a bit too much.

hi,
here is a video from our friendly teamrace between TPS and BC on fern bay green.

its my first video, but i think it came out allright. hope you enjoy it.

wow, incredible vid vendetta!

Quote from Stellios :

Me and my dad have been invited to an 'exciting evening of racing with Renault F1'. Basically, we have been asked if we want to have a shot in their F1 simulator.

Should be a good comparison to the BF1

probably running rfactor. :lol:

:ices_rofl

Quote from Jakg :

nooooo!!!!! i really want it but i cant afford it unless i sell a kidney! oh well, bye bye kidney!

and i just wrote on the german lfs forum that this is actually the first proper wheel that you can afford without having to sell a kidney. i think the price is fair. have you ever had a look on those BRDs, VPPs or whatnot...some of that stuff goes well into the 4 figure range...

Quote from Shotglass :

its a bit larger but still too small to really make use of all that rotation imho

dfp was about 24cm, this one is 30cm. now that might not sound like very much, but consider that its a circle, its quite a difference.

and i think its looks good, serious, not like a toy. i think real racecars don't have funky buttons either.

built it totally by myself with np help and hardly andy prior knowledge (okay, exchanged some parts, cards, power supply, drives.) even if i was a bit sceptical whether it would all work out, i have now got a PC that was a lot cheaper (well, it wasn't actually, because i put the money in quality and fast parts instead of someone too assemble it) than those i had before and even more importantly one that is a lot more stable...

kel, honestly, i have heard of much problems with the DFP's pedals, but thats the first time i see something like that. and if it happened to you twice, you should think about the way you use it...
i've been using mine for one and a half year now, and all i suffer from is the usual spikey reading and sometimes it completely refuses to react.
when i depress the pedal completely, i have all the pressure of my foot on the very middle of it..and i can't even imagine anything would brake if it wasn't spot on.
so adjust you placement and don't stomp on it so madly.

kreppel!

krapfen!

berliner!

pfannkuchen!

i hope i could clear things up a bit.

Quote from mrbogeyman :

would it be possibly to store old pbs for posterity before deleting them?

possibly if all the pbs were kept, and then overwritten as each combo was raced for the first time on patch T?

store them on a piece of paper.

Quote from deggis :

Unfortunately no, it's just a graphic effect currently. Clearly made for future feature where there would be real different tyre brands.

edit: doh, I'm too slow

why should there be differently bahaving brands in the future? everybody would just choose the best one...

im not voting because even though i would like both features i can actually live without them.

Quote from inCogNito :

Suggestion, resotre this brain asap.

:uglyhamme

TC on the sauber arcadish?!? i can't believe it...illepall

Quote from RIP2004 :

Tell my summer tyres, that I did it in the wet. I have to change them this month. Ever smelled ruber? Would be a hardcore car to make the tyres smoke and smell in the wet

jesus christ! would you please stop comparing the performance of your car in the WET with LFS???illepall

Quote from RIP2004 :

The problem remains. A full throttle, hard spinning start is the perfect method to get away ... but only in LFS. Even GT4 on the playstation has better physics regarding this issue.

gt4's tyres suck totally...you have virtually no grip when accelerating, which leads to acceleration times being way off from the real counterparts, but then way too much lateral grip where its almost impossible to get most cars to drift.
LFS is way more realistic there.

maybe you should try your theories with the FXO, the gti has not ernough power to find a proper conclusion here.

oh and you have hardly ernough feel in pc-wheels' brakes to really modulate the brake...but i have tested this extensively with the measure tool on autocross and locking the wheels will not procide you with the shortest braking distance! but its so hard to really brake properly on a pc simulation that you are not able to really see a difference.

whats better than coming home from a verys nice bike ride, finding the patch ready, downloading it while taking a cold shower and then take it for s spin.

the cars are now really relly nice to drive, great improvement indeed.

you guys should give the F5 key a rest!

i'm going for a spin with my bike now. its 23°C for the first time this year, simply gorgeous weather!

...of course i'll take my mobile and use one of the two free sms.

the patch isn't out yet, but if there is one developer team that i trust to make a proper job then its the LFS team. i am sure it will be released in the next couple of hours.

i have followed LFS from the beginning, and it has come a long way since, thanks to scawen, eric, victor and the many others involved. who would have believed that one day a real formula one car would be included? congrats to the team for that achievement!

some people are already moaning because they can't get the patch quickly ernough, but i am thankful for just getting the patch! i know that the devs haven't set the countdown for an already done patch and then sat back to watch the community go mad. on the contrary, scawen has been working extra shifts again throughout the last days to make the patch perfect.

we should all be thankful for that because LFS really gives you extraordinary value for a very fair price.

whats scavier anyway?
i have heard of a certain scawen, but scavier?

Quote from spookthehamster :

Nobody's pointed this out yet: Grooved slicks.

you could enable grooved slicks in S1 already with the tweak-tool...

Quote from wE1l :

Can't believe my first post in this thread is to answer that, still out of breath now. But for some bubble bursting---will it be merely an updated FO8? Remember F1 today uses V8 engines, maybe the only thing it's got to do with F1 is a BMW-Sauber livery...

the picture on the site is a render...

Quote from TiJay :

been looking for a decent F1 car sim for awhile...

its not going to be a f1 sim with a complete field...

That movie, smells like new sounds

did you never learn not to trust advertisments?
