I read AR somewhere in this thread, does that mean we get grid girls too?

Quote from Rocabiliz :

awesome! where did you get those rims?

Hi, I made them myself.

Here is the wallpaper

Quote from DevilDare :

any way of 1024x768 version plz? it looks sweet would like to use it as desktop

I will do one a little later for you. At the moment I am rendering an animation of that scene.

I'm very happy with this one.

Hi people. It's been a while since I have done anything around here. So here is a new one. Will be the last I will have time to do for a while.

I hope you like it.

I like the sound of the LX6 now, but I liked it before so...

For me everything sounds muffled and the same. I figure it's an attempt to simulate being inside a car, but for me it just sounds terrible. I like the UF1 with the top off too. That sounds fine.

As for the gear noises, sounds like a mouse click and the gear whine is so "electronic" that it depresses me.

Really glad to see that the sound is being worked on, but for the moment, I want to go back to u30 sounds.

Hi XCnuse. I have done a bit of spline modelling myself, im curious though. To me it seems that you are doing each panel seperate? Is that right?
Really great stuff btw, i really like the 4x4

Thanks Guys

Hey people. I figured I would add something as I havent in a while. It's just a little one I did in a bored moment.

*edit*
Decided to add a larger one also

Im having the same problem when I go into window mode and try to use MSN. It just freezes everything up.

System spec are AMD 64 3700+ 1 gig ram, x850xt. I usually get around 100 fps with AA on 4x and AF on 16x

But when it goes windowed, it get to about 3 or 4 fps if I try to do anything else.

Been playing with some flame effects to put into my scenes. Looks pretty neato.

Quote from ORION :

very nice!
is the motion blur / dof from 3dsmax, or photoshop?

I use lightwave 3d orion, I love using Depth of field in my renders, adds a lot of realism i think.. Just takes a few extra passes That one only took about an hour to render though, so I am pleased with that.

I dont generally do anything with photoshopt to my renders. Its all done with the renderer

Having fun making a track at the moment, looking forward to showing you guys some sneek peeks

Here are some rims I just modelled to keep you occupied in the mean time

NOt exactly finished but definetely worthy of show...
After a LOT of braing storming about ways to take advantage of the LFS textures, I have worked out a nice and simple way to mold my own tracks, currently making a nice big section of mountain track..
Here is one corner with minimum detail atm, but it still looks pretty sweet

Basically the division sorting is based on you percentage of the WR.

So if the WR is a 1:06 for the FZR and you get a time of 1:07, then your percentage is 100.94%

If the WR for the FXR is 1:08 and you hold that WR, then your percentage is 100%.. For this round we 2 on 100% before the end of Division sorting.

The most you could ever have would be 3 drivers on 100%..

It improves the situation of getting more variety into the divisions but then when you have qualifying on the night it sorts itself out to FZRs at the front

I dont think cars will be banned, not for me to say anyway, but it would be nice for them to be even...I think most will just race the FZR now, which is a shame because admins certainly didnt want it and I would have enjoyed a bit of variety.. Oh welll..

The League's home page is here, for those that are interested www.australasianleague.com

As i said the race was an hour and a half. I think thats plenty long enough for a league race.

The tyre wear on the FXR and XRR is no better than the FZR, this in itself negates any fuel advantage. After all, the FZR can easily pull out a gap that covers the time needed to add extra fuel. This only take a few seconds and those in the FZR where able to make this gap in under 5 laps. When we had 55 laps, fuel really isnt an issue.

Intrestingly enough, the next race we have is at west hill, its a slightly shorter race, the FZR will need to pit for fuel, the FXR and XRR will not.

Yep, not like it was just one person being uber fast either. We couldnt catch ANY of the FZR's.

HAahahahah


You would need to start the FZRs a lap down I think..

Div A last night everyone not in an FZR got lapped. Partly because chaz is so damn quick but more to do with the fact that the other cars were soo slow. When our races go for and hour and a half (55 laps AS national Reverse) then the FZR is going to win easy.

Bugle held the WR for the XRR on this combo and last I checked I held the WR for the FXR so we were driving them fast.. BUt it was pretty well useless.

I only brought it up becuase it would be nice to have a field of cars that were varied but were equal in terms of pace. The XRR and the FXR actually produced some good racing, but the FZR is to fast. illepall

If we could have the FZR brought back to the others or them brought up, it would be much better IMHO.

The first round of the AAL gtr 2006 season was run and won last night. There were about 70 racers all up looking forward to the new series.

The reason I am making this post is to discuss the GTR cars. Unfortunately it seems that the FZR is simply miles ahead of the other 2 cars, the FXR and XRR. Up to 2 seconds a lap faster in fact. Not only that the tyre wear, it appears, is actualy better than the other cars as well.

We were all a bit puzzled by this as we were under the impression that the new patch had evened things out, when in fact the XRR can no longer keep up with the FZR where as before the patch the only one lacking was the FXR.

I am wondering if there is any chance that these cars will be sorted out any time soon? Its not a huge deal as everyone is just going to run the FZR now, but it would be nice if we could have 3 even cars just to mix things up a bit.

Has anyone else been involved in a gtr series since the new patch that can comment on the cars also?

Sorry if this has been covered already.

These were the stats from the night.

http://www.southerncrossracing ... l_gtr06_race_1_div_a.html

Qualifying was top 6 FZRs (6 FZRs in total in the race), then an XRR about 1 second behind that, then myself in an FXR about .3 behind that. THe rest were a mix of FXRs and XRRs.

I modelled the lights myself.

Hi guys, havent shown anything for a while.

Some really cool stuff has appeared since I was last here.

I guess I better show something, and give a little plug to the AAL and their upcoming gtr series while I am at it. Hope you like.

he he

Yeah, Australian Race Sim Enthusiasts ARSE

Yeah it was just for a laugh. The aussie LFS scene is brilliant. Great bunch of people, always something on.

U guys are missing out

Smax: There are a couple on the site. Go nuts, have a look around
