I haven't seen a computer that couldn't run LFS in almost a decade. Since 2006 when I was taking Cisco in High School, I was able to not only play it, but run it on max settings on the school's Dell XPS computers.

Quote from the_angry_angel :

Just to give you an idea on why:
* The track formats are LFS' own format. They can and probably will change as more features are added.
* The business model is to do with content (tracks, cars, etc.) and service (LFSW). The devs would shoot themselves in the foot if they allowed non official content right now.
* If they accepted your track (and it was similar to a previous race track (in terms of layout)), and you allowed them to sell it, they may be liable.

What i think he means is that you should be able to create tracks without being able to sell them. kinda like mods for Nascar Racing Season 2003.

If you ask me i'm for the first option. Just look at Half Life 2 and Unreal Touranament 2004. They have had so much sucess because they are open to modding. Sure they have some crappy mods here and there but eventually you will be able to tell them apart from the good ones. I would love to see Talladega or even a trak that has a loop in it. Hey there's an idea! A hotwheels type track!

I have been testing demos this weekend. I tested rFactor, GT Legends and netKarPro.

It has made me realise how good the FF and physics are in LFS. GT Legends was the best of the three IMO. The graphics were nice but what really made it for me was the sound. It was excellent.

rFactor I had problems with the FF. It seemed to work in reverse with some kind of wierd 'anti centering' pushing the wheel away from the centre instead of vice-versa. I checked all the settings but couldn't see anything so gave up on this pretty quickly.

NetKarPro just had no FF feel at all. Graphics weren't up to much either.

What we need is the sound and graphics of GTL and the physics of LFS and we'd have a great game.

Anyone played any other demos I should try?

Play the Nascar Racing Season 2003. It is the most realistic nascar game ever created. Well at least AI and Physics wise. The graphics are somewhat dated.

Computer games have limitations. I always thought it'd be nice to do all sorts of stuff to that hottie in Half-Life 2, but the game wouldn't let me.

Get garrys mod. It lets you do whatever you want.

I played the arcade version and I have the Dreamcast version.
