LFS Compatible Patch 0.6F - Pete - 2014-06-21 15:25

http://www.lfs.net Wrote:Dear LFS Racers,

Today we release an new update of Live for Speed with 3D support and announce another version that is coming soon with a much improved Westhill track.

Version 0.6F:

Available today and well tested by forum visitors, this new update supports 3D devices including TVs, projectors, headsets and the Oculus Rift. While developing it, we also moved onto DirectX 9 which allows for better graphical effects in future while still allowing LFS to run on older versions of Windows and on Linux (using the Wine compatibility software). This version remains fully compatible with 0.6E with many improvements and fixes.

Read more about the patch and how to get it on the 0.6F information page.

Westhill Update:

Available soon... as the development for S3 has been taking some time, we thought it would be good to update something for our existing license holders. The best thing to update was the Westhill track which was always sparse and underdeveloped. The International configuration has been improved in many places, particularly in the twisty sequence of bends in the far corner which is now more challenging. There is a new National configuration, bearing off from the International track after the first right and left bends, involving some interesting gradient changes and technical bends. The scenery has been developed to a higher level of detail and you can drive around the access roads in the open configurations.

You can see more images of the new track on our screenshots page.

The configurations are complete and good to drive. At this point Eric is still finishing some buildings and filling some holes in the scenery. Scawen is making some improvements and optimisations to deal with the higher level of detail. We expect to release this version for testing in a few weeks, but remember that sometimes interesting things can come up that make things take a little longer than planned.

Further Progress:

After the Westhill update, Eric will continue with the S3 tracks he has been working on. Scawen will continue with the new tyre model. The new tyres currently feel good to drive but some work needs to be done on heat, pressure, friction, tyre load sensitivity and wear which are all closely linked.

The patch is compatible with 0.6E, no update is necessary.

Will we have this on the servers too? Smile


RE: LFS Compatible Patch 0.6F - Pipa - 2014-06-21 15:53

Those screen looks really good.

I do hope some roads beyond the track are usable for the TC layout.

RE: LFS Compatible Patch 0.6F - Bez - 2014-06-21 16:22

Going to be awesome to drive!!! Heart


RE: LFS Compatible Patch 0.6F - Ras - 2014-06-21 16:39

Fantastic. Westhill really did need a nice overhaul, so it better be done soon.

And finally we wont fall through the ground into LFS hell when driving on the access roads and the bridge.

Should make the track a hell of a lot more interesting for city driving, with the access roads and new National config Smile


RE: LFS Compatible Patch 0.6F - Tibe - 2014-06-21 16:40

Damn, that looks really sweet! Ohmy


RE: LFS Compatible Patch 0.6F - Zipppy - 2014-06-21 16:48

LFS has needed this for a long time. Thank god.
