Did you try turning up the FFB settings?

yea, when i increase it to a point (95 ingame) the FFB stops being smooth, and feels "shaky"

I amnot sure if this is what happened. I stopped playing for a month, now It feels weird. I havent changed any settings, the wheel feels easier to turn, i feel less FFB.I can't feel the car's weight thru the wheel :/ if thats the problem, where to get a replace motor, and can i do it by myself at home?

Quote from Racon :

I've guessed the distances involved, based on car lengths... it is suitably infuriatingly difficult

I put in route checks to keep the course identical to the vid, chalk arrows as best I could to illustrate the route, and splits just for fun

Let me know how you get on

Sorry I totally forgot about this post. I will try it today, thank you

Quote from pärtan :

If a bunch of mod tracks came out for LFS, it would ruin the game. It's one of the reasons to why LFS is more successful than rFactor. The fact that everyone got the same content and that people don't need to download mods to be able to play online against other people.

Edit: At least I think LFS is more successful :P

LFS is better, thats why i dont just go play rfactor and drive on mountain passes. I want to do that in LFS. I dont really care about multiplayer,i would be pleased if i could playon mountain passes SP mp would be sick tho... AND you never HAVE to download a track mod if you didnt want to. we have the same content (mostly), but if someone needs extra stuff he can just get it... better said: he could, if we had that extra stuff he ( I ) needed

Quote from pärtan :

I don't think you know how copyright works. Just because the tracks are made by 'random' people doesn't mean anyone can use them however they want. Especially not the developers of a commercial product. In addition to that, the LFS devs don't want to use content made by this community, so why would they take content from a different community?

Im not talking about the devs using it.Maybe there is a good programmer in our community who could make a converter or convert a track. rfactor community uses all our tracks and cars. we could do the same, if we were open for it.

also i can do some c++ c# if needed, still a newbie but can help do simple tasks


and anywayas there is an autocross mountain pass coming out soon :

THis is a hungarian track (well its based on it)...My first layout made
http://www.kakucs-ring.hu/kapcsolat/ (orig track)


Its good for drifting or kart racing. Low speed narrow corners, multiple options.

Tell me what u think

Quote from Bigbob1993 :

This tells everything

I am an amateur drifter, whats your problem with me using this simuator for practice?or to have fun? Go hate somewhere else.

If i misunderstood you then sorry, but do explain what you mean

Quote from pärtan :

That's because it's done by the community. Communities usually never care about copyright and stuff.

yea rfactor mountain passes are done by random ppl... no copyrights. So i dont think we would have problems using their tracks.

Also LFS community is trying to get something done

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxOsZjMsp2M

add some hills and rocks and we are done.

Im looking for hungarian fellas!

Láttam már pár magyart...Olyanokat keresek akikkel tudnék multizni, főleg drift

Quote from Si Mclaren :

Just clarifying:

Like Sternendaal said, Racing is going from A to B in the lowest amount of time, if you are going foward, backward, sideways, upside down or flying, doesn't matter...

That said, i must highlight this part: "going from A to B in the lowest amount of time"
This is what defines "racing". Not how you do it, but the fact that you are competing with others to see who is faster.

So finally:

If you are talking about sliding just for the sake of it, for showing off to others, without competing about who is the faster, then it is not racing...
If you talk about sliding the car to get a corner faster in a race, then its racing....
What the heck it changes if its racing or not, i don't know...

Simple

I agree.
Drift is not a race. Drift is an Art! The Art of Driving…

BTW, cant we just adopt/convert rfactor tracks? they have many mountain passes...

Quote from Sternendaal :

Nope.

I've never really seen the issue of this. Racing is not drifting and drifting is not racing. Racing is going from A to B in the least amount of time, drifting is to score points.

Doesn't matter whether you take circuit racing, drag racing, hillclimb, rally etc. Winner is the person who gets from A to B in the lowest amount of time. Drifting is about showing off, not getting from A to B in the lowest amount of time. Therefor, two seperate sports.

Any sport with a judge is pointless. Be it with horses, gymnastics, drifting, etc. Sports should be easily measurable (eg score most amount of points, get from A to B in the least amount of time). Any sport which includes a judge who is measuring things you do is a sport I cannot take serious.

Aside of that, I don't really see why you would use something to 'showoff' instead of going fast. Doesn't matter if they're using cars, horses, bikes, skateboards etc. Doesn't mean it is not good, or you're not having a talent, just don't see the point or need.

Sometimes drifting (oversteering) is the fastest way around the corner. Rally is a good example. You can get thru a mountain pass with lots of narrow, sharp turns with pulling the e-brake, go in oversteering, leave the corner with greater speed... or slow down to 15kmh, find your 'fast line', lose time with accelerating again.

Yeah the drifting most of the ppl think of is a showoff, a big fun. Showing off your skills of keeping your car oversteered, keeping it on track, keeping high speed, high angles...

Also i dont see why would people say NO for a chance to get a new kind of track, what others might enjoy. If you dont want to use a touge track, then dont, but dont kill the fun of other people. my comment is not only aimed you, but did not want to quote all the haters.

Haters gonna hate. Drifting is fun, and you need loads of experience and skill. I also like it, because anyone can enjoy and learn it, without investing super loads of money... And its not that dangerous like rally or any track races :P
And yeah touge racing is not = show drifting

thankyou

hello, i have a new problem (something always happen)...I have a g25. I installed a joystick as a handbrake, everything works fine, except the manual transmission. I can map the gears, it also flashes when i put it in gear( in the options), but ingame it does nothing. If i switch to sequential it works. What can be the cause of this annoying problem? Thanks in advance

Quote from DavidTiger :

I do this with xbox gamepad, right analog as clutch axis. To calibrate so that center is 0 I just hold it up and then press the C button to calibrate so then I let it go it goes to 0.
Remember and lock the calibration or it will re-calibrate when you move it the opposite direction.

well yeah that worked, but it somehow f-d up my whole steering wheel setting. Now if i turn the wheel just a tiny the ingame steering wheel+wheels turn immediately to the max angle. ingame and logitech app setting are set to 720 degrees. I tried to reinstal, recalbriate teh wheel. no change.... any idead what the heck is wrong with my steer? It had worked for 2 month with no problem, now i set the joy as handbrake and everythign gets ****ed up

hi.i Want to set my genius joystick to function as a handbrake. I set handbrake option to axis , select the right axis (8), but here comes the problem. when the joy is in starting position, te handbrake is on, it turns off when i pull it. Its supposed to be the other way around... I tried to invert the axis, but no difference. Any suggestions?

I think this can be fun too... If you watch the video you will know

So can someone make this layout?

When I use NTO it turns off the abs, the wheels block no matter how easy i am on the pedals. It shouldn't react like this, I havedriven cars with the abs off...Anyway I couldn't Find the option where i could turn it on/off. Thanks in advance

thanks i found the program. is it allowed to use this if i play online? and can someone please explain what the steerlock option does? It makes drifting too easy heh. Thanks in advance!

Hello, i am new into this game. I want to use lfs for some drifting, i have some IRL experience. I tried a few tips i found but with no success.
Can somebody please help me?
-I have a log g25, what is the best profiler+ingamesettings? ( i tried some i found... but it didn't feel real)
-i need a good car setup for the xrt, also is it okay to change the car skins?
i have a s14 kouki irl, is it possible to mod a car to act like mine/ or like a 300hp s14 with lsd atleast? or can I change all the stats of the car?maybe an sr20det engine sound?
-i found some good layouts so thats fine.
-i also have the dubmods live for drift edition, but it doesnt work with my g25, the wheel starts to live on its own, it's not in the center when going straight.. does it worth the effort to fix it or just stay with the real LFS?
Thanks in advance
