Quote from anttt69 :I dont think week 13 is scoring. I just did a race where nobody scored any rating points at all ??

It depend on the series. For example, Mixed Class Martial Arts is unofficial.

Yes, 13th week Solstice and Legends series are official, they influence your iRating and SR.

Try RAFs downloaded from Hotlap Analyser http://www.lfsworld.net/rafa/ . I think these G's were added in connection with Hotlap Analyser development and are visible in it, so the values must be there. They were not available in older versions of RAF specification. Maybe it's a bug if they are not present in regular RAFs output from LFS (I haven't checked that) and maybe your RAFs are from older LFS version (?). G's are accelarations, so another way of getting them is calculating 2nd derivative of car position and doing coordinate transformation if you want longitudinal/lateral parts.

Quote from 5haz :Funny how they leave it until the first race weekend to raise their complaint, even though the diffuser in question has been around for weeks now.

F1 cars are supposed to be legal during race weekends, not during pre-season tests. They will protest based on facts, not predictions and speculation.

Quote from anttt69 :You cant just take things back from people that they already own. Thats plain robbery!

They don't take it back. They keep it safe for you in their "garage" for free, until you decide to renew your subscription.

Quote from Bawbag :Is there anywhere to find the best hotlaps for certain tracks?
I got 1.46.8 in qualifying with the soltice at laguna seca

No, but I think I have seen 01:46.041 somewhere. I know, here http://members.iracing.com/mem ... reerStats.do?custid=15250 I'm not sure, however, if there were no physics changes that affect car performance since this time was set.

EDIT: I'm too slow, on the forum and on the track.

Yes, I'm fully aware that Google is able to dominate us all. TBH I suspect that the founders of this company maybe hope it will be bought by Google.

They must hurry up. This Romanian company http://www.norc.ro/ provides a service similar to Street View for some cities in several central-eastern Europe countries.

Quote from danowat :Looks interesting, if only for the fact it has a Lada, I mean, A LADA? lmao

Then just wait for the Trabant. The other thing they work on is a gravel stage.

Quote from thisnameistaken :TBH I subscribed to iRacing for 2 months and didn't think it was all that interesting. I'm surprised that so many people seem to have jumped ship already. It can't be the lure of the multiplayer because the multiplayer is so inconvenient, so what it is?

I think iRacing gives access to relatively clean and careful racing without the necessity of joining leagues, which in fact are even more inconvenient. I don't know if this is a result of the system promoting careful driving (you need reasonably high SR to move to higher license and drive more interesting cars online) or only the fact that many teenagers cannot afford or justify its cost.

Quote from Lynce :I've also noticed that users are going in one direction or another depending on what most say. This is a reality.

So you want to say this is a totalitarian community or sth just because 99 % of people here think that 2 + 2 = 4 ?

People may be rude, calling other people names and still be right about some issue. It's like a difference between form and substance, although I think being nice to other people is substance too but another kind of substance, it's probably the most important thing in life if you think about it long enough. Some run out of their lives before they reach this conclusion, so you can't demand that from people who are not even in their twenties.

I just checked and I could not find a way to login to this forum or lfsworld using HTTPS. Correct me if I'm wrong. I could only login to www.lfs.net through HTTPS. Therefore, every time you login to this forum or lfsworld your username and web password is sent through the Internet in plain text.

Quote from Lynce :The only thing I was doing was maneuvering to return to move normally.

What say you? What we do in this moment?


First of all when joining mid-race it's a good idea not to enter the track before the leaders. They are usually quick and will soon catch you, and may be angry when you ruin their race. OTOH people like me who are happy to finish around P8 on a full CTRA Race 1 are usually calmer, as they don't have much to lose . Spectate for a while and use the map to avoid joining ahead of the leaders.

Quote from deggis :And maybe EA needed half-ready game... which Blimey did have - that unnamed Ferrari game. Screenshots from that look very similar to this Shift cockpit shot.

They had also Falcon project, over 2 years in development, and the press release said that only one of their projects survived. It seems Falcon could be planned from the very beginning as new NFS, but all the details were kept secret.

Quote from Furiously-Fast :NFS: Shift - could fail if it is just a Grid clone.

Why is it supposed to be a Grid clone? Because it has a city track and cockpit view? Does it make LFS a Grid clone also?

Thanks, I look much better with these new stats.
However, I was just wondering what is the exact meaning of these new stats. I happen to be on CTRA for less than 56 days , so I thought that 'Yellows' percentage on the MyCTRA page should be the same as 'Yellow Flag Ratio (Last 56 days)' in my case, but it is not. Is that correct? Is 'Yellow Flag Ratio (Last 56 days)' calculated only from finished races?

Quote from S14 DRIFT :All the rich kids these days have no talent.

This is the original video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Quuqhjnxwq4 and there are more videos in the same profile. This guy actually built the equipment himself, so I would say he has lots of talent and motivation, just not necessarily spends all his time driving LFS.

Lerts, you will not create energy this way, only transfer potential energy into kinetic energy and back.
The formula for calculating the potential energy is at the end of this section (ignore the constant gravity discussion at the beginning): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P ... tational_potential_energy

But you forgot to tell us what law of science your thought experiment contradicts. Maybe... none?
And you can do away with one of the masses here. If you drop one mass into your tunnel in the earth from its surface, it won't be able to stop immediately in the middle, so after passing the center of the earth it will move 'up' also for a while.

Maybe you should use another approach and try scanning force feedback effects sent by the game. Have you explored x-sim software, especially Yoda? http://www.x-simulator.de/main/en/yoda2/yoda2.html
