i am not hosep but i saved this skin sorry

En halua liikaa kusta muroihin jos jo asiaan on ehditty nähdä vaivaa, mutta pakko kyllä kysyä että onko tuossa mitään järkeä lähteä kääntämään peliä kielelle josta ei ole varmuutta, että pelaavatko äidinkielenään saamea käyttävät edes kyseistä peliä?

Epävirallisen käännöksen ymmärtäisin kyllä, mutta ei tuo mielestäni takaa virallista asemaa listaan, kun tuolla on kieliä millä on miljoonia ja jopa miljardi natiivia puhujaa, joita ei ole lisätty LFS:n kielilistaan. (Englannilla toki suurin osa pärjää, ja niin veikkaisin myös saamelaistenkin pärjäävän joko sillä tai toisella äidinkielellään.)

Hello,

I'm currently trying to create a skin for the Prototype 2 https://www.lfs.net/files/vehmods/8A8457?skins for my personal use.

I downloaded the PSD file and converted it to PNG to add color in Gimp. However, when I import the PNG into my skin_dds folder, I change the extension to DDS. The skin appears in the game, but the car is completely black. I tried adding color to the entire template to see where the problem was, but the car was still black.

Can anyone help me resolve this issue or point me to a forum where there are explanations on how to create my own skins?

PS: Attached is the PNG file of the car if you'd like to try it out.

Thanks !

Any transparency will be shown as black due to the LFS skins format not supporting transparency. If you've saved a project file without merging the layers together it will try to portray the topmost layer as the main level of detail/mipmap, 2nd layer as the second lod, etc etc.

GIMP should be also able to open .psds normally. I've only ran into problems with layer structure/formatting, colour format can be changed in GIMP if needed.

Custom cameras do not have a visible steering wheel. The point is to have visible wheels and a steering wheel without indicators. To understand why i want to drive this way, try rally layouts in this view

You could enable the visual steering gauge, its not a proper steering wheel but displays the steering axis just as well in my opinion

this is the weirdest car comment thread ive had the opportunity to see. im not sure if i want my time back

FZ5 and XRT are best drift car

Quote from Drifteris :

and you can drift anything in this game anyway so there is no best either.

https://www.lfs.net/files/vehmods/B535F4 good luck

lol

depends on the cars you use both in AC and LFS. Same could easily be said if you compare different cars, like for example DTP cars in AC drive themselves.

Try drifting the default cars such as XRT and FZ5 or something not fully meant for the purpose, they provide a bit more challenge than mods with 60 degree steering locks specifically made for drifting.

It's not that difficult to drift in real life, either. You would have the same effect of car steering itself, if you remove the power steering

this is the right turn

& which is the biggest flat oval u think?

I would probably say the mexican gp track has the largest fully flat oval at 1 mile long. They seem to be using the stadium section for nascar, too but there is also an oval layout raced counter clockwise

It's not really an oval, and i don't think its the biggest either.

According to this track map its counter-clockwise so all the corners are left turns, not right

can i have one in tandy pls

There's a small bug if race is started from the lobby menu screen, the cars have default setup and full tank of fuel regardless of whats selected in pit menu. Not sure if it happens on the stock LFS cars too.

My Shifter works good i dont have issues.I fix year ago skipping gears with velcro. Its a Lfs question, no hardware question . I hope you understand what i mean, my English is bad...

My bad misunderstood, but if that happens you'll know in the future atleast

It's a 3D printed part most likely, just give it a bit of dremel or file treatment at the place where the gear plate restricts the shaft from going into its slot properly, until it seems to make proper contact. Depends how it looks like but it shouldn't affect the mod's function if you're careful with sanding it down

Quote from Abone :

hello. I do a g25 shifter mod to works more tight, in a way i noticed if a touch shifter by mistake he goes neutral without using clutch. So for changing gear i need clutch, but for neutral no, dont have sense to me.My LFS settings are right, any reason for goes neutral without using clutch?

You have a wire loose inside the shifter causing connection problems, this is a common problem in the G25 shifters if you slam the gears hard.

This was the common spot where they loosen up and can be soldered or glued back in to fix it.

EDIT: sorry the pic might be from the potentiometer side, if it gets loose it traps all gears up into 1st and down into 2nd Can find the culprit by following these since they connect to same bits, taping the wires up might help them not get caught between the sequential plates that hold the assembly together

I would recommend to get the older 5.10.127 since it's the last driver for DFGT on logitech's site https://support.logi.com/hc/en-us/articles/360024699474--Downloads-Driving-Force-GT

So a good, tweakable and adaptative AI as all I need.
Then, i guess, LFS is not the game for me, but the shame is, again, to me its perfection, and the sim i have most fun with, even with its flawed AI

Speaking of that, seeing as you have an S3 license you could use LFS Editor to increase power, reduce drag or add wider tyres to the AI cars possibly letting them have a bit better pace compared to player. It's sort of a bubblegum fix, pretty much have to give them more speed in the straights for them to gain the time back lost on corners.

They don't take the corners really well, i guess the AI is programmed to regain traction or not to go over it by any means, so they can't utilise any form of tyre slip, it is eliminated instantly instead.

do you even look at the dates on the posts
