If a real rally driver can get the feeling ot the game at his first try I think it's enough to be confident in the realism of the game hehe

Quote from Eclipsed :You can with LFS,just need to renew associations,which is easy because of provided app,linked by Gutholz.

Whis is basically what I said, isn't it?

Quote from J@tko :Is there any way of changing the lock on a game by game basis in the Logitech Profiler?

Yep. In profiler, click Edit (second tab), and then click the last item in the list.

You can't move an installed program to a different folder and expect it to keep working...

You can uninstall it and reinstall again (if the above solution doesn't solve it) using the new path.

Quote from Gutholz :As far I could tell the delay between IS_RST and green light is random...

As Gutholz says it is always random, except on the drag strip tracks.

Quote from (FIN)Eza :P.S. little slower car this time to not stress out viewers! Big grin

Appreciated Razz

I love the sound in this game. When you are sliding throught a corner in 2nd gear and the engine is battling to keep its revs. I suppose that means that the physics are working right. Though I don't get the same sensation on the movements, they feel a bit off to me. Can anyone share his experience?

I have watched some reviews, in one of them the guy said that if we are coming from RBR we could be biased to not like this game. I guess part of my excepticism comes from this fact Shrug

If you are idle for a while the car will auto stall, you have to press I to start it again.

Quote from (FIN)Eza :Might aswell put this here too.. Recorded one random run for friend. Not best run by any means, but Group B is fun! Cool

Is it just me, or does the trees come towards the car faster than in any other game? xD

It's been quite a while since I played RBR, but I got stressed just by whatching you flying trhought that stage haha

Dumb question, did you download a recent LFS version? (like not a 3 years old one xD)

Quote from Sobis :That's strange. I don't have any problems with master server. Have you tried reinstalling LFS? Furthermore, the fact that you were able to write here confirms that the master server is online?

Your internet browser reaching the forum does not imply that the game is able to contact the master server. There are many diferent protocols involved in those two connections Thumbs up
And the master server could be a program running in the background, that could crash despite the website keeps working fine.

Quote from Gutholz :For qualification would be nice enter lap-limit too, at the moment only durations (minutes) work.
(Excact details one must read in league rules anyway, but "One hotlap" or "2 shot qualification" or similiar is quite common. for ex. at http://cityliga.de/index.php/en/season/schedule 4 of 10 qualis are lap-limited)

We have the same rules in CESAV, so far I've set it to 1 minute sessions when it should be set to 1 flying lap (F1 2005 style).


About grouping by league... I'd be inclined to agree, but I'm also aware that there would be too many cases where grouping would be the wrong thing to do :/

"Simplified 3D meshes of all LFS tracks." as seen here https://www.lfs.net/programmer

Thought I think what you really want is to handle it throught InSim coordinates.

Maybe it is because you have a demo account... (unlees you are not posting from the account you are trying to use).

I actually don't know the answer. I know that a person had that problem in this forum and Scawen diagnosed the cause of it, but I don't remember how it got solved.
Whiskey

Could it be that the RTC (realtime clock) on your machine is running faster/slower than realtime? If that is the case, I believe that you should get kicked out of the server if you wait long enough.

Frames per second. It is a place holder, the same as the temperature gauge, but in this case it has a numbered scale.

Quote from Flotch :
a quote showing we knew it was planned:

Oh, I've never saw that piece of news, thank you.

IIRC it was a leaked version Scawen sent to the beta testers. Nobody should know that this car has ever existed.

Quote from sinanju :I've updated my pc and one of my online servers to 0.6G19, but when I go online, all I can see are 0.6G17/0.6G18 servers - I suppose I could be very first, but my server doesn't show in list of hosts - am I going wrong somewhere?

I see one G19 server called "Drift yeah!", so those servers are appearing on the list. Don't know if anyone is missing though.

This bug is solved in versions newer than G18 (none released as of now).

Heel and toe must be performed extremly well to be better than normal downshifting.

In FWD cars it is not so important, because it is easier to avoid blocking the front tires.
In a powerful RWD car, you usually want to tap the throttle when downshifting from 3rd to 2nd gear because you can brake quite harder if you avoid the rear lock.


Though my real advise would be to learn to drive normal, you'll quite some time until you are able to reduce gear, brake hard, keep the steering wheel pointing where you want and lifting the clutch slowlly to not lose your rear.
I needed several months until I felt confortable in almost any circumnstance, but I'm still not doing the heel and toe because this need me wearing shows while driving and I prefer going barefoot on my socks haha

Quote from Gutholz :Use LFS twitter account, might stop some worries and speculations.

Should be obvious to anyone :S It doesn't seem that hard to tweet some words in the 4 first hours of an unexpected failure.

That's OK. Just a flaw of an old graphic engine. I think DirectX7 couldn't do any better than that and LFS never got a new lightning system after upgrading to DX8 and DX9.

LFS had tire flex while other sims didn't, and the force feedback was simulated instead of using canned effects, but I don't think that modern sims are lacking any of that, so now they are all (almost) even in the physics field.
