On the simulation side, things have been coming along well. Eric has recently worked some more on the Aston track, including graphical improvements, texture changes and a new configuration (or two). Scawen has worked on some aerodynamic improvements, most notably, the drag and downforce from wings work correctly depending on their real angle of motion, not just the user setting. A recent push on tyre physics has resulted in much better tyres which have improved the car handling and driving experience a lot. We have also been experimenting with another interesting feature as well... :)


looks like theres going be a BIG update soon.

lols... atleast it goes to show he hasnt even bothered to read the forum to see that there are already 2 threads on it....

lol

[XCNuse]

jolly good chap! :cookiemon

[Becky Rose]

Thank you for keeping us informed.

Would you like a medal or a chest to put it on? :razz:

[tristancliffe]

What on earth was wrong with Victor's thread where ALL this information is. You didn't 'find' any of it out. You aren't going to keep us updated, you won't know anything before the rest of us, and 99% of what you say is misspelt drivvel.

Gosh this post was going to be very long and very offensive (and not very PC), but I removed most of it in the interests of restraint.

[Madman_CZ]

faster111 where did you find this out? you wouldnt want give me your secret sources would you so that i can find this info out aswell??

:D

[MyBoss]

interesting

[axus]

OMG... I never noticed that - I wish I could be as quick as you. Now I'm so excited about the patch, I can't wait! Guys, don't be nasty to him - his thread proved useful to me and as such it wasn't a complete waste - I didn't know about the coming update.

[Vain]

This is cruel but incredibly funny. I guess now we know why he named himself faster111. :thumb:

Vain

[Madman_CZ]

you have to feel for the guy, he discovered (somewhere) a progress report and that a patch will be out soon. With all of his excitement he couldnt contain himself and realise that the lfsforum would be the first place any news was posted about the upcoming updates and having 2 threads on it already he decided to make a thread. What's worse the post about the update by victor is right at the top of the menu so he should have seen it. What then wraps it up is the way he posted it, like it was a very big secret and faster111 mr Investigator found out some stuff....

sorry faster111 but this time you really dug your own hole mate. I suggest that you have a browse on the forum about upcoming updates as this is the first place any news will appear before anywhere else and unless your related or u know the devs personally (unlikely)

so i suggest u buy a 10 pack of beer and drink drink drink.. ohh damn your only 15.. ahh well get some coke (as in coca cola that is;))and go hyper!!!!!!!!! :hyper:

[Becky Rose]

I was browsing the FIA website last year and saw the 2008 F1 regulations on the French side of the site, I quickly checked the English side and didn't see any reference to it - so I quickly told ITV about the scoop on the French site...

I then realise Martin Brundle had referred to the 2008 regs in the last two commentaries, and checked again to see that the reason the 2008 regulations where not on the English site was because they'd been pushed off the articles list.

What a dizzy tart...

ps- if you want to flame me pm meyes, and everybody else also knew after the many threads ALREADY created on the subject...

[Tyrion]

I'm sure you had the best intentions faster111.However, if you want to avoid further public ridicule in the future, you *really* should make a habit of checking the other forum threads before you post something like this - specifically ones created by the devs :)

[the_angry_angel]

Sorry, but I just cant help myself:
If you send me your address, I'll mail you a clue :)

Its all a little bit of fun :)

[axus]

Guys, maybe we should give this guy a break already... huh?

EDIT: Oh, no wait... nevermind.

[mr_x]

could this be a candidate for most pointless thread of the year??

[Madman_CZ]

camon guys give him a break now!!! hes only 15 ;)


i think its best if an admin would delete this thread....

[Vain]

Nooooooooo. Then nobody would know what the next patch will include and everybody will complain about the lack of progress updates again because they can't find all the other threads about the progress update that have better fitting titles and are always on top of the forum!

i don't i just have a favourites link directly to the forum, but theres more news on here than on the website, one reason why i dont visit it too often

edit: either that or the news on the main page is on the forum within seconds of it going on there!

[pdanev]

Blimey, just when you think this forum can't sink any lower.......

Dan,
The 1st post doesn't sink the forum any lower. It's the 100 replies that do, unfortunatelly. A guy got excited when he saw the news (a bit late), without looking for other threads, he posted this. Big deal. Instead of simply telling that it's a repost, and pointing to the thread this is discussed in (which someone did actually later on) people keep jumping up and down on a post, that's nothing new anyway.

What are the threads with most discussion?
1, When there's a repost
2, When there's a cracker

Simply lock these threads, and don't deal with them. What good does it bring for 150people to shout in repost, repost, repost.

To be honest, I don't follow all the sections in the LFS forum, mainly the media/screenshots/renders section, add ons, layouts, and that's about it. In most of these sections, people that actually post something creative and useful, don't get any reply whatsoever. Threads with x hundred views, and noone says anything. The only time there is some activity in those threads is when some cracker posts something, and then 200 poeople jump in throwing around hot air.

[ORION]

100,0% agree

Get a sense of humour, mate. If it amuses everyone (and the person posting the thread should smack himself on the forhead and laugh along) its all good. As for the crackers, there's 10 replies about that before it gets locked/deleted. For the layouts forum, it is probably not as heavily moderated and because layouts are only available with a license its pretty obvious when a cracker posts. If you haven't noticed there's a 3 man dev team and people take this sort of thing more seriously on the LFS forums because of respect for the developers. I'm not saying they're right to post 100 times on it, I'm just saying it's understandable.

[ORION]

The problem is, the guy himself who posted this thread will not think it's funny.
Yes it is funny, I also had a big smile on my face, but you sometimes need to hide those smiles :D
*oops* ;)

i agree with that! :D (oops)

but surely things like this show that its a good community, able to have a good laugh... ive played ALOT of online games, and no community comes close to being as friendly as the LFS one, yes they take the p*ss a bit, but they all mean good!!* (hope that made sense!)

*apart from when people with an unlicenced "h*ck*d" (dont say that word!) copy of LFS come on the forums asking for help.... because its just not right!!

[pdanev]

I believe noone likes crackers here, all the people who bought LFS respect the developers and their work. And everyone knows this. Posting 100times "go away cracker" doesn't make the situation any better, and won't get rid of crackers.

But anyway, my post wasn't directed at cracker issues specifically, it was more like an example.

And I do have a sense of humor, but when 100people post the same "go way noob" or whatever "funny" picture 100times, and reply the same thing 100times, in 100different repost threards, it's not funny anymore. :shrug:

[colcob]

To be fair, the ribbing in this thread was pretty light-hearted compared to most of the internet. I'm sure the guy will take it on the chin.

if your a demo racer and u have not got a s2 license why are u looking so forward to the update. it look's like u have used a cracker so why do u want the update so badly (correct me if i am wrong)

dont jump to conclusions mate... remember the low speed grip fixes/physics changes will affect demo users aswell as us S2 licenced ones

[AndroidXP]

Also, the update will break all cracks, until they make new ones. ;)

[mr_x]

Actually "faster111" has already been banned from the forums once because he admitted to cracking S2. He's now returned with a new account and claims he's sticking with just the demo, but I don't think he deserves the benefit of the doubt.

aaah ok i see now... i didnt know, one to watch then! :pillepall

[Mazz4200]

Yeah Tristran, I thought both, mistake and/or on purpose, thats why i found it amusing, works on both levels.

Didnt mean to offend :)

[tristancliffe]

No offence taken - I've quite a thick skin nowadays (since the Hacksaw jokes started), just making sure you were aware of my intention. Of course, discussing it has kind of ruined the original joke. I should have kept quiet and left you wondering.

[joshdifabio]

You mean the two v's? Would it surprise you to know that it was on purpose? It's a subtle form of irony ;)
You also know that it's misspelled not misspelt? :p

[Mazz4200]

lol, to be honest, with modern day "text speak", i'm not really sure anyone else noticed, they probably thought it was the correct spelling, (kids eh !)

I've not been on here much lately, so, i'm not sure about the "hacksaw jokes" ??

But i remember a while ago you were being touted to write a column for an online sim mag, anything come of it ??

btw, i think i may have got'cha, go read my previous post closely ;)


[edit] Josh, actually, either word is ok, misspelled is more of an American "english" usage, misspelt is more commonly used in the UK "english"
It's basically a question of which word fits in with the context of the sentance.
(at least that what my Collins Dictionary tells me)
(Wow, i need to get a life)

[dontsimon]

Mmmm, crackers.

Correct Mazz - misspelt is English ;)
