Topp - works fine for me but you could try this intead.

Thx

Been waiting for 1 hour to get the test patch but nothing happens. Tried several times but it just says at the bottom window "waiting for liveforspeed.net"

GT2 CLASS

Been busy with work a while back but now im finished with the XRG set.
Ive also modiefied the old sets from before to get a more different driving experience. Each car now has it own strenghts and weakness but they are still equal at lap times

Since Ive heard that it might be possible to race online with different tweaks on same server this set is named "GT2 CLASS" So U know what set to use if seeing a server with that name (still waiting for my 100/100 mbit broadband to host servers with)
Again the goal was to get the cars easy to drive for anyone and not to behave like nervous anabola BHP packages who flips of the road.

GT2 CLASS

XR GT TURBO
RW Drive
4941cc Turbo Boxer 8cyl (I choosed the boxer since it delivered the best V8 sound. Same cc as the E39 BMW M5 engine, should be quite realistic BHP nrs with turbo added)
Power: 700 bhp @ 7045 rpm
Torque: 777Nm @ 5610 rpm
Turbo: 0,8 bar
Tyres: F.320/30-18 R.340/30-18
Weight: 1527 kg @ 51.5F / 48.5R


XR GT
RW Drive
2568cc Turbo Inline 6cyl (same cc as RB26dett Nissan Skyline engine)
Power: 600 bhp @ 8035 rpm
Torque: 577 Nm @ 6708 rpm
Turbo: 2,0 bar
Tyres: F.265/35-18 R.325/30-18
Weight: 1249 kg @ 51.8F / 48,2R


XF GTi
4x4 wheel drive
1600cc Turbo inline 5cyl
Power: 500 bhp @ 9015 rpm
Torque: 427 Nm @ 7553 rpm
Turbo: 2,4 bar
Tyres: F & R. 245/40-15
Weight: 979 kg @ 56.0F / 44.0R

The .rar file contains tweaks, good base setups, engine sounds with a BOOW .waw file for the turbo
Ive looked over the engine sound better this time to match the engine layout. Can it sound better than this? Don't think so!

Before unraring the file U might want to backup your files.
Unrar the file into your LFS S2 folder and press "YES to all" when asked. Then it's done!

Please let me know if theres anything that needs to be changed.


/Edit: These sets where meant to be used with SLICK Mod

When saying pressing your third button under your G15, is it the small black button 3rd from the left top (right above the rewind button) ?

Cant get this to work properly

Hi!
First I'm not from an English speaking country so try to stick with me

The goal was to get a set so well balanced and reliable that anyone could use it and that it would be used among players online to host games with
.........................................

The XFG set is now finished. The car performs very equally to the XRT set I did, on laptimes (tracks tested: Kyoto ring Oval,Blackwood,Fern bay club, Aston Historical). Less power but shorter braking distance and higher exit speed from corners since it has 4wd.

I choose a light engine, high rev and lots of boost with some turbo lag. Engine pos slightly moved backwards. Still very driveable since that was the idea from the beginning.

Info on the XFG:
4x wheel drive
1,6 L, straight 5 cyl
Power: 500 bhp (373 kW) @ 9543 rpm
Torque: 401 Nm (296 lbft) @ 8126 rpm
Weight: 979 kg (2158 lbs)
Front/Rear Weight: 56.0 F , 44.0 R
Tyres: 245/40 15

Use the R2 slicks or harder on this one since its a light car and could flip with stickier tyres (which sucks) since I couldnt quite get around the tilt factor on this one...

I've provided Tweak set and a good base setup for the car in the .rar archive. Sounds will come later for all the cars engine config.

Please let me know if theres anything U'd like to change with the set.

Now im of to mod the XRG...

Quote from Breizh :

I know you spend some time doing that.. but I have nothing better to dream up even more work for ya
Make similarly user-friendly tweaks for the XFG, XRG, and XRT to get them to equal performance with the LRF class.
= 6-car class races

That will take some serious time but...what the hell, Ill try to make 2 competetive sets for the XFG and the XRG then and modded eng. files to fit that eng cyl layout perfect (yes, even better than Davews sounds)

I would hoste some serious tweak servers to promote the tweak files but Im currently waiting for my fibre internet connection to be installed (100/100 mbits)
In late mars, early April it should be ready and then... massive server support for tweaks!

ok, got it to work.

Thx

Hi!
First I'm not from an English speaking country so try to stick with me

The goal was to get a set so well balanced and reliable that anyone could use it and that it would be used among players online to host games with.

1.The Rar file at the bottom contains DumpValve.wav, Tweak file. XRT default.eng(modified to fit the 8cyl engine) S2slickmod.exe and .txt instructions.
2:The other file is a good base setup for the car
Reminder: Use the Slickmod

Ive tested several dozens of combinations with tyres, engine placing, rpm, etc...
So please try it out and give me some feedback if theres something thats need to be changed

Some spec:
3.5 liter straight 8 cyl
Turbo 1.5 bar
Power: 492 kW (660 bhp) @ 7720 rpm
Torque: 679 Nm (501 lbft) @ 5927 rpm
Weight: 1390kg
Weight % : 51.4 F 48.6 R (Engine slightly moved backwards to gain a steady behaviour at high speed cornering and fast accelerations)

Front wheel: 320/35 17
Rear wheel: 340/35 17


Why the High RPM?
A: Power builds up slowly over the RPM field which provides a more reliable/controllable behaviour.

Why the high weight?
A: With tyres this wide the car actually performs better weighting more since it wont flip at cornering (stable handling) but still have massive stopping/acceleration abilities.

Why 17 rims and not 18,19,20?
A: Low ground clearance which minimizes tilt factor and adds more stability at high speeds



Best regards from Sweden

Hi.

I downloaded LFS companion to try out the backfire mod, but when enabling it and starting LFS thru LFS companion all I get is these messages:

"Insim: Admin password does not match"
"Insim: packet received before ISI packet"

Ive entered the same password I use when activating LFS.
So what am I doing wrong?
