I had to pull the real world values for the SI gear ratios, but give it a final drive of 5.6 to really make it work. Stock gearing on this mod is wonky (no fault, they look like good values).

I would just like to note, for humor, that a 7800X3D and RTX 4080 run LFS reasonably well.

LFS is such a low load that the cpu nor GPU fans even spin up at 200fps 6880x2880.

However, you can always fire up RTX remix, which technically works, and reduces FPS below 60. But the only object i can see any lighting difference in is the rims of cars and wheels. Sadly i do not think full pathtracing would be possible here without Scawen, and a new (admittedly more basic) lighting system is coming some day soon regardless.

Lossless scaling is nice. Worth noting this may be a driver-level feature for some radeon and RTX users. Nvidia smooth motion, AMD Fluid Motion Frames.

Also a fun trick in lossless scaling is offloading it to a 2nd GPU (or your iGPU if you have dGPU and iGPU)

The time attack version was GOATed. RIP

As someone who works in cybersecurity, I like this.

Sure , A FIDO2 system would be better, but the new current system straddles the need between 2FA and supporting legacy code.

2002/2003, literally learning how to drive in the XF GTI. I'd played lots of racing 'sims' before that but the realism of LFS struck me as a learning opportunity. Got into a real car not long after and was right at home, despite transitioning from mouse to irl wheel.

Later on, someone in a drift server teaching me how to drift

then going on to spend lots of time drifting fern bay black rev to eurobeat tunes.

Quote from Eclipsed :

This is not possible to set up in LFS editor - ABS yes or no,no other options...

Why do some cars have really fast ABS pulse rates?

Fun to drive! Only feedback is the ABS pulse rate should be ~15hz

Quote from Scawen :

A quick update today, centre-weighted metering prioritises pixels nearer the...

Not a lighting question, but, the aliasing in the screenshots made me wonder.. will new version come with new anti-aliasing options? Not a high criticality thing just curious. (currently rendering the game at 6880x2880 for my 3440x1440 display, in addition to the in-game AA, to get rid of jaggies as much as possible)

Love the progress. Blows my mind to see a game almost as old as I am getting modern overhauls, and even the small updates are good!

"it's done when its done".

Would need CVT transmissions first. After that it'd just be code to hand off between cvt and ev drivetrain on the same car.

in theory i have no idea how complex the drivetrain code is

Having owned both a 2016 iM with this engine, and a 2021 corolla with the 2.0, some notes:

The new chassis has little/no sound deadening, and the muffler is not crazy quiet even if it is a normal muffler, so the 1.8 should be louder.

Interior is good.

Handling is pretty good, if a bit understeery (i've had the tail slip out once on me irl)

GR next?

This thing is a beast on slicks

engine and power seem approximate now.

Driver position needs a bit more z height.

I like this a lot, but the engine sounds like im getting my teeth drilled.

This is shaping up nice. The engine doesn't feel quite right vs my 2017 EX-T 6MT, but it's been a few years since i owned that car so im not sure if it's the sim or memory.

I like this. could use 45' steering

aaaaand its back

With all due respect I've been using mouse to play since I started and I think...

I've been racing with a mouse in LFS on and off since 2003, almost 30,000 miles worth, and I agree.

damn near perfect. my only request is for the stock race setup to boost the braking power. It can go quite a bit higher before abs kicks in and best times are in the territory of very very mild abs kick-in (1300/1400?)

aaaaand its gone

This gen civic was my first car. Incredible to sit in this mod in vr. I can almost smell it.

I don't think the handling is quite right but that may be the engine more than the mod.

It's back?!

a work of art in the handling.

Where'd the mod go?
