Mods custom engine sound (.eng) doesn't load by default

Hey there!

Don't know if it's only me or related to mods only, but everytime I load a custom .eng file for a modded car, it doesn't stay on everytime I go to spec mode/pits and it goes by back to '?' (default engine sound made by the modder) everytime I rejoin the track

is there a way to make my custom eng file to be the one opened by default? I tried to save with the mod prefix in the name (ex: 82B303_enginefile) but it didn't worked

or this is maybe something that's not supported for now?

Thank you! Smile

As you may know, the mod has been published! Smile

I submitted a v2 with the following changes :
- Edited the dashboard a bit, inverted water temp gauge with fuel gauge
- Moved driver position to be centered with dashboard
- Rollcage is now paintable

Quote from Flame CZE :I see that henricat's LX8 GTR has been published now: https://www.lfs.net/files/vehmods/71F781

Not sure if we want two LX8's out there...

Yea, not really the same car in term of handling, but I understand that you may not want another LX8 GTR Shrug

Hey there! here is the car i'm currently working on, an LX car based on the infamous LX8 GTR from 2005 Big grin




I tried to match the engine to the 2005 version at first but realised it was too overpowered, so I reduced the power to match the current GTRs in term of power-weight ratio (specs in the attachement)

It also got bigger wheels/tyres, slicks, wider body to fit the new tyres specs, I also removed the carbon texture from the front mudguards so now it will match main body's colors Smile

I also added downforce physics to it so it could compete with the GTRs in the turns and not only in a straight line, there's no spoilers on the 3D model right now so downforce is purely ingame physics.
also I need to tweak the aerodynamics value inside the editor cause the LX is sticking like glue to the road and it's almost too easy Big grin

Here's me driving a lap on Blackwood with it


Hope you guys will find the mod interesting even if it's just basically a tweak mods with some body modifications, but it's a very fun mod to drive!
I always loved the LX cars and always wished a driveable version of the LX8 existed Tongue

also don't mind the bluetooth mirrors and the lack of windshield, it was just me messing around with the editor, it won't stay like that Ya right (but I quite like the look if i'm being honest Big grin )

btw Scawen, is the editor something you made specially for mods purpose or is it the "real" software you guys used to create the OG cars? just being curious there

Quote from furkanaykut70 :our problem is a lazy opening in background but we can not see in taskbar

i think this is about with windows 10

How do you proceed? Do you launch LFS first?

You need to type /insim 29999 in the chat before opening LFSLazy, if you opened LFS first

Or you can launch LFS directly with LFSLazy by launching Lazy while LFS is closed Smile

Also didn't found any other topics about that so sorry if this was already posted

Was just fooling around in Solo mode and somehow I hit the tyres that are near the pit entrance, and noticed that they doesn't do any damage to car body and suspensions, even if I hit them at a high speed

Thank you for the video, that's actually interesting!

Also props to the driver for driving so nicely and explaining everything at the same time, amazing!

Okay so fixed the bug by doing this

Quote from peterjbruins :I have had this problem too.

Another way to fix this is to edit your .ply file in data\misc.
Just open the file with Notepad++ or smth, search for 'RB4' and remove the first thing it found (XRT is before RB4 in this file that's why its the first thing) (delete "RB4_[name]")

Well in this case instead or searching for 'RB4' i've searched for 'UF1'

So if it happens to someone else as well, here you go

Still, could be annoying for someone who doesn't lurk the LFS Forums Ya right
Engine Sound Editor (Shift+A) Bug

So this bug happened to me today,
Was spectating someone in an UF1 and was editing the engine sound of it with the editor
He left and disconnected while I was editing the sound and the camera switched back to my FZR

Thing is, now the game consider that my FZR have UF1 sounds and can only read .eng files having the UF1_ prefix (see pictures in attachements)

Only my FZR was affected until I tried to leave the server and get back on it, but now all the FZRs there now loads only UF1 sounds Ya right

Also tried to reboot the game, but same results

Didn't tried to reboot my PC, might work but i'll try later, since it isn't really a gamebreaking bug Tilt

Quote from yurikw :I updated my game to the unofficial patch, but now I want to return it to the official plus I do not want to lose anything I have, what can I do?

Install a fresh version of LFS somewhere else than your current LFS folder, rename the exe to something like "LFS_Old.exe" and copy & paste it in your current LFS folder.

Quote from Flotch :For a next release, an LX8 with 400hp sounds a perfect car to add in S3 ^^ Thumbs up
/dream mode

Actually had some fun with Pro Tweak and the current LX6, made it a 3.0 i8 instead of 6 (couldn't make it a V engine but still), added some slicks tyres and it was actually really fun to drive Thumbs up

Quote from racer autov8 :I would have never guessed this would be a thing lmao
just one problem, used all my unlocks for giggles this week so can't actually use the lx8

Just send a message to the devs via the contact form, ask for a key and they will give you one Smile
