i downloaded the steups for the cars, end put in the data folder but in game i dont see any new setups,why?

1. Put it to /data/settings/ folder
2. Rename it to "car name_set name"... For example, if you downloaded set named "Formula_V8_blablabla", you have to rename it to "Formula V8_blablabla" same with other cars....
You have to remove the "_" from car name, if you didn't understand what i wanted to say ^_^

you don't have to remove anything or change any names just simply put it inside your data/settings folder

If I download a setup from a forum, it will have converted spaces to underscores, and LFS won't let me pick it unless I put that space back.

that is so disapointing, i did every thing you told me too, but i still dont see any setups.

Post the setups here you downoaded.... (a few you don't see)

i could not put them here dont know why and how,but i tried.
it is so strange i tried so many deferent ways with deferent setups and it is not working
after putting them in data settings i go in the game go garage and car and i have there only my old settings.
but on internet multiplayer people send me some setups and i did get it.

:doh:

What is the name of one of these setup files?

The game desnt load the setups directly in the moment you put them in the right folder, you need to "refresh", for example by pitting out and in again.
Maybe Scawen could add a "search new setups" button

one of the names is formulav8westhill1.set

He already said that he placed it in the settings folder then went into the game, then garage to find the setups.

Well there is your problem.

Rename it to Formula V8_Westhill1.set

While your at it, read these filename prefixes for all 18 cars

FORMULA V8_setupname.set
FORMULA XR_setupname.set
FXO GTR_setupname.set
FXO TURBO_setupname.set
FZ50 GTR_setupname.set
FZ50_setupname.set
LX4_setupname.set
LX6_setupname.set
MRT5_setupname.set
RA_setupname.set
RB4 GT_setupname.set
UF 1000_setupname.set
UF GTR_setupname.set
XF GTI_setupname.set
XF GTR_setupname.set
XR GT TURBO_setupname.set
XR GT_setupname.set
XR GTR_setupname.set

now it works, i did not change any thing and they apear now.
i guess it took some time.
thanks to you all

so how many setups can i store?is there a limit?

No limit, at least not one I've hit in S1, or S2 yet.

But lets be honest, I cant imagine anyone getting that high.
