Oh Yeah that would be nice, then I wouldn't have to keep using different ones that I like and then trying to remember which ones for which track when ever they are updated or another better version comes around.wabbit wrote:Seeing the DaveWS' sounds have been added in. Im starting to think that the next thing for the user base might be those hi-res track textures
It is great to see that Scawen and the other Dev's are now accepting 3rd party additions to LFS, might speed up the development and make LFS what it is intended to be

No, and if they ever decide to. i hope each and every track goes through extreme scrutiny. don't get me wrong i like rFactor alot. but quite a number of tracks are simply rubbish.GT VIRUS wrote:Mmmm wonder if they will take on 3rd party Tracks?
at least with LFS the tracks are at a certain level of quality

Couldnt agree more, the thing that sets LFS apart is its attention to detail that most "track/mod" makers dont do.r8response wrote:No, and if they ever decide to. i hope each and every track goes through extreme scrutiny. don't get me wrong i like rFactor alot. but quite a number of tracks are simply rubbish.GT VIRUS wrote:Mmmm wonder if they will take on 3rd party Tracks?

TBH all these "cosmetic" changes in LFS are great for new people comming in, but I think most of the older people are bored with the gameplay. Its not because its bad, its just because it hasnt changed.
Bring in Weather/Night, and ill be back into it, but after a 10min run around last night, I was already over it.. and took off to rFactor 79' Monco

I picked up and did some laps around SO in the FO8 tonight... What a friggin blast, I forgot how much fun you can have in this game. Probably something to do with the peeps I was racing most likely but.... Dang, the FO8 sounds pretty rockin now.

Well I never really liked CSR and what it did to the engine sounds anyway, I only use it for the other sounds (backfire, turbo, brakes and road noise etc). With these new LFS sounds I can't see why you would still use CSR for engine sounds, in my opinion. If you dont want to use the patch just download the Dave_WS engine sounds to try it to see if you like it.kwijibo wrote:Haven't tried it out yet.. but much better are the sounds really? I just cant imagine them matching CSR
Moving to my new house next weekend, so once I'm all set up I'll hafta get back into some LFS races

I quite agree with you both, but you know, more tracks done properly would be good. I am sure that some new layouts would inspire you all back...nutty wrote:Couldnt agree more, the thing that sets LFS apart is its attention to detail that most "track/mod" makers dont do.r8response wrote:No, and if they ever decide to. i hope each and every track goes through extreme scrutiny. don't get me wrong i like rFactor alot. but quite a number of tracks are simply rubbish.GT VIRUS wrote:Mmmm wonder if they will take on 3rd party Tracks?

i reinstalled LFS after not playing it since the patch with the BMW. Maybe it's just me but i just can't get into it. The cars have a weird feel to them, i find i have trouble getting any feedback at all, and when they do slide it's a weird 'catch it now or it's gone forever' kind of feel. I think it's a game that has to be played a fair bit to learn the intricacies. I find after GTL and GTR2 i'm really struggling to feel the cars. It is like GPL, it has a uniqueness that has to be mastered. The occasional fang isn't enough to keep the speed up. by the way it does sound better, but still not as good as the Simbin games. It seems too muffled on my system.
