Some of my favourite dnb artists are:

Concord Dawn
Ed Rush
Gridlok
Shapeshifter
Technical Itch
The Upbeats


Gridlok is probably a good one to start with.

FXR
XFR
LX6
Possibly FZR (I wish it had a sequential gearbox!!!)

you can't start it again, because it doesn't have a starter motor!

BF1 doesn't have a starter motor

Its easier to catch slides, and when you are driving the FXR with locked diffs, you don't have to turn the wheel 540 degrees just to turn into a corner.

Quote from HVS5b :1. Set the Logitech profiler to the required degrees
2. Match this in the in-games options
3. Set wheel turn compensation to 0 (or something like that, I'm at work and can't remember the exact name for the slider) found in the in-game options
4. Ta da

Set the Logitech profiler to 720 degrees
Set LFS in game settings to 720 degrees
Set wheel turn compensation to 1.0


This will give you 1:1 matching for all the cars, but you will only get FFB stops at 720 degrees. The only way to change the FFB stops is to change the Logitech profiler options.


Personally I use
-540 in profiler
-720 in lfs
-wheel turn compensation to 1.0 in lfs

This makes it so the road cars use 540 degrees, the GTRs ~400, the formulas ~340, BF1 ~300, MRT ~200.

Hmm since this thread has been bumped I'd like to add my thoughts.

I really like Microsoft hardware. Some of their products are really good quality. I have a Intellimouse Explorer 3.0 and find it very good for the money. Nice solid plastics, none of this bling bling flashing LEDs rubbish that you find on 'gamer mince' these days.

I really think that Microsoft could make a good FFB wheel to compete with the G25

Meh... people should just take the time to learn how to setup a car. Once you get the hang of it, it becomes a lot of fun. Learning how to setup a car properly will also help you with your driving, and managing your tyre temperatures. If all else fails then just download a hotlap setup off team Inferno and reduce the camber and increase the tyre pressure, that literally takes 10 seconds to do and I can be within 1 second of the WR no problem most of the time.

-1. Just because a few people can't be bothered setting up their car, everyone has to suffer a potentially poor handling setup? no thanks.

Just ring up logitech and RMA it

For road cars and GTR:
Very slight oversteer. I can run faster times with a loose setup. For enduro races I use a more stable balanced setup, so I am slower, but I don't crash

For single seaters:
perfectly balanced, but I suck at single seaters anyway.

Quote from mikemav :OMG! From 6:12 to 6:21 in that video, it's so clear that's just a different (kick ass) wheel on existing technology. Build it! Man, that would rock.

Pitty it would cost about $40,000 to buy a F1 steering wheel.

before you make your pit stop, press F12 and then use the arrow keys to change options - like how much fuel you want to add, and if you want to repair damage

Low 1:14s on blackwood. I have the split times for 1:13.9 but I just have to put the lap together. My blackwood set could do with some work fixing understeer on turn in and oversteer on exit.

1:06.99 is my best on SO6. SO6 set is working well, just need more practice.

Quote from Scawen :Which cars? Because I tested the oval and it was ok. It will just save me a lot of testing if you tell me which cars don't slow down in time.

It depends on the setup, I tested with BF1 using R4s on the front, and it seems that the AI doesn't slow down in time because they lock up the front tyres.

-edit- this seems to be 99% fixed in X32

Change your gear ratios. With the new realistic red lines and power band the gear ratios really matter. My old blackwood set (partyboyU or whatever) was geared too tall, because the new track is tighter. I easily cut 1-2 seconds off my lap time just by fixing the gear ratios.

I had a quick read of the script guide on LFS manual, and it seems that its not possible to make a script 'hold down' a key, so it won't be possible to make a lfs script to do the instant 90 degree look. -edit- maybe it is possible, ill look into it after dinner.

It would be possible to make a macro do the instant 90 degree look with a macro program like AutoHotkey.

Its already established that the cars are going to be getting new interiors in not patch Y, but probably the next after that (probably Y10, or Z etc)

I imagine that the new interiors will have updated speedometers, that will actually be readable . We can only hope

same here. I think this started since X31

Make a replay and post it here. Then we can see if we get an OOS error when we try to watch it.

I wonder if we will be able to crash start the cars with the new gearbox and clutch physics? Who knows

For those of you that don't want to bother with any other programs, and just want to use the built in nvidia control panel, here are some screenshots. Set the antialiasing higher than 4x if you want (my graphics card slows down too much if I use 8x) You also might want to turn on Transparency antialiasing (only works on 7 series or higher cards).

I think you're confused about the naming

XR GT = XRG
XR GT Turbo = XRT

What car are you talking about?

CTRA Race1 is good for the XRG, but there aren't many good servers for the XRT. You could try CTRA race 2, but that has become bad since they introduced the handicapped GTR cars.

Quote from Electrik Kar :I'm starting to use the mouse wheel to change gears, and that's a bit weird, but maybe I'm getting used to it. Is that how the fast guys shift down immediately from 5th to 2nd? If not, what's the secret?

If you turn off auto clutch you can shift from 5th to 2nd instantly, but it doesn't help you. You are better off shifting down 4th, 3rd, 2nd, blipping the throttle just after you shift for extra engine braking. I can cut about 25m off the braking distance doing this.
