Eye candy

[mxpxun]

I hope it was never mentioned before.
I think adding some NPC birds to LFS would make LFS a bit more realistic and that would make tracks more alive than it is now, for example in Fern bay driving near the beach (pic 1) some birds could be standing on the road or on the sand and when birds saw a car they should fly away and land somewhere else near that place, because of this improvement it would be more interesting to drive around, because now i tracks there are no movement its so boring to drive around, only your car, road, grass with some moving threes and flags (what is good), but it is not enough. Birds should really help and maybe landing or taking off planes in South city track maybe some zeppelins with AVON tyres sign.

Something for S3. :smileypul

I don't think flying birds are on the top of anyone's list for a racing simulator... Shall we animate the drunken fans trackside as well? Perhaps give them some cowbells to ring and have a deer or two wander out on the track from time to time...

[Gekkibi]

No movement on landscape? Drive around Blackwood when there is wind. Imho it is brilliant idea that the wind-plants (Or whatever they are called) are rotating. Also, trees are moving on windy conditions.

Don't forget about the giant squid :scratchch

[VoiD]

Wow, some bird-poo on the windscreen... :shrug:

(+1)

what about (crushed) insects..?

[buedi]

Birds hmmm :scratchch
They are in Richard Burns Rallye and sometimes when you are very very unlucky one crashes into your Windscreen and sometimes smashes it too. So, it could be a nice Addition... in the far far future when we have all those other suggested things I won´t mention here :D

trees sway a lot when it gets windy :really:

[Hankstar]

Don't forget about the giant squid :scratchchI certainly haven't.

[aroX123]

I would have some beach sounds and sound when wind hit the trees

[Gekkibi]

Do you mean "the way trees are moving" or "trees don't move when wind blows"?

Because if "a", I'll have to start LFS and check that. Never really watched them closely. If "b", then I don't want the same pills you have. I want that trees dances and rocks in my reality.

Speaking about birds...

Grid girls?

pretty please (literally)

U'la'la

agree, that would be good
If you want to make simulator more realistic, youn need to improve wourld details too, not only driving stuff.
I hope u understand what i am writing :)

Why add something you'll never ever hear even faintly? Even at normal, road going revs without music, I can't hear wind rushing in the trees or birds singing. So I imagine that the cacophony of high revved race engines will certainly be loud enough for you not to hear the rustling leaves, even when you're standing outside, right next to an effing tree.

And concerning birds: same applies to them. additionally, motors scare birds, especially loud racing engines, thus they wouldn't whistle anyway.

[AstroBoy]

I just want something more to LFS birds swaying trees anything that gives to the sense of imersion to me. That includes drunk fans as well as critters running across the track.

[Gekkibi]

...well as critters running across the track.

I already got an idea for insim-program: Capture the critter!

road-kill mod?:D

[NitroNitrous]

I like the idea, why not, but... first of all you must set up your game config to eye candy settings. I can´t understand why some people complains for poor graphics in LFS when they don´t play with settings to the max quality :shrug:

I play. And also use the "aftermarket" bloom-effect.

But I don't need better graphics. One thing would be welcome, however: Moving terrain. In my opinion, it is great idea that wind-powerplants rotates in blackwood. There could be some other moving objects/things. For example, clouds.

But LFS is just great at the moment. This wasn't nagging about lack of graphical effects.

but palm leafs dont :(

Once, I really dont know how it happened, maybe something with my speakers, but when I got stuck in the sandtrap at the sea, engine stopped and I heard the sea - damn, that surprisingly swell :thumb:

I use low settings only in multi player, because when there are 32 connected drivers i get only 15 FPS, in Single player i use maximum

Ooh, where can I get this?

[Primoz]

I'm interested in that too. Haven't seen the option in nVidia drivers.

[G!NhO]

I want 1000 cow's next to the road, but sometimes they will cross the road and it will be a massacre with blood flying everywhere. :tilt:

Using blood-effects from Mortal Kombat?

I don't know Mortal Kombat :razz: but if it has alot of blood flying everywhere then >> HELL YEAH !!! :D

[Tomba(FIN)]

Wow, great idea.. You can crash into a bird unluckily and brake your windshield.. and that makes u drive more slowly!

[Gekkibi]

I don't know Mortal Kombat :razz: but if it has alot of blood flying everywhere then >> HELL YEAH !!! :D

Don't know Mortal Kombat? And you are using computers? It is like not knowing what is wheel when you drive a car.

Google some pictures, and you get the idea what I mean about the blood. ;)

I have heard about it, but i never played? or saw it, is it a game or a movie??? :razz: lolage

Well, is Tomb Raider a game or movie?
Hollywood is raping everything. What's next? Need for Speed The Movie (Oh, already forgot. We already have Fast and The Furious).

YAY are they gonna make a movie of Live for Speed :D

[DieKolkrabe]

^ NO!!!

Hollywood producers: I can see it now 'We need more neonz and bodykitz to appeal to the kidz, y0'

Scawen: No you don't.

HP: You're off the project

:P

[jwardy]

animals hmmm:scratchch haw about ducks , and when the ducks decide to cross the cars stop and wait till they cross , or or maybe a giant bee atack o and a monkey .

[VoiD]

I prefer Barbarian (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4Ii_YfJNvw) :D

Barbarian was way too easy game. When the match started, instantly press button & back to do neck-cut maneuver.
(On multiplayer it doesn't work, naturally)

[bmwe30m3]

maybe some umm..some farting in the race,would be much cooler,but

I think no to all of the stuff,cause people like me with low spec computers will get even lower FPS :(

[LiveForBoobs]

i want the leaves on the sides of the ground to lift up in the air when the cars passes. :)

[mxpxun]

agree, and maybe leafs flews down on the ground from the trees that would be cool too

[LiveForBoobs]

And the windshield getting dirty with time, with smashed mosquitoes, dirt and other debris.

[Racer556]

I belive that the first step would be separing the particles, as for now we have the same texture for everithing, with color variants :shrug: if we had different particles for different terrains, you could get leaves flying too, as a texture of course. Sometimes it breaks my heart when someone goes out of the road and a big green cloud covers the field :tilt: it would be really nice to see a different texture for the grass ie. some grass debriss, pieces of mud, etc... you know :D it doesn't seem too hard to do, but I'm no programer, so correct me if I'm wrong.
