Really, this vid is definitely needing a warning: "Do not try this at home - all stunts performed by OFP-certified crash drivers" (Crash drivers = took a crash course in driving...). Oh, if only my old Thrustmaster Grand Prix wheel wasn't completely wasted... damn... have to get a new one... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How about a website that caters to multiple "teams". We certainly have a plethora of OFP sites that are not affiliated with one specific clan or team. I believe a single website that describes as Smiley_Nick said a "Flashpoint" or "BIS" Racing site where we can all join up and simply see the individuals that are both in the LFS and OFP(ARMA) community. I would like to join one of these teams, but being in the middle of the US, time is a major factor as to when I could drive. So in that respect, I might join a US or closer-based team, but I'd hate to be alienated from the rest of you guys. So can we make a site that is all inclusive? E-Racing and WhateverYourTeamName Racing can meet there? Sounds like a great idea! Ball is in your court smiley. Ok mate Looks like i was the crapest driver there then, hhaha i need to sort my setup or driving out. Im getting the S2 tonight/tomoz but we play the demo and that can be anything from 7:00GMT to about 10:00GMT, once the forums are up we will be able to set times and so forth, they should be up tonight i think..

crashdome 3 Posted September 25, 2006 That doesn't help me much... I am in US (-6hours GMT) so that is around my lunch hour while I am at work!! Bummer. That's ok.. if you guys get a weekend race in, I will join up [EDIT] Just noticed you said till 1-2 AM In that case I can get on around midnight if you guys get a late night.[/EDIT] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smiley nick 51 Posted September 25, 2006 Im sure your not the only american that plays LFS, weekend racing would be good, but this is why "flashpoint racing" would be a good idea, as we might collect a large number of people from all over the world who can race, set times, and teams when they are free ect Nick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
noccie 0 Posted September 25, 2006 What would u guys think of getting together on the demo Wednesday evening ,somewhere round 8GMT? So we can all have some fun with a large grid Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smiley nick 51 Posted September 25, 2006 Ok small competition for you all Breif Design a livery (skin) for the XFG racing car, using any colors of your choice, this can include a simple 2 colour base coat, or more fancy effects such as lines, stripes, and anything else that goes. Requirements 1.) Must be able to have space for logos, and for them to be easily viewed. 2.) Must be "universal" for the majority of the cars in LFS Must have a "clean" look, with a high quality finish. 3.) All skins must be saved as a JPeg for showing purposes but the original must be saved as a editable image such as PSD. Entrys Please post your three examples in a reply on this thread, with no more than 100kb image size, if it exceeds it, create a link for it. One entry per person Winner Winner will be decided on a majority vote, and flashpoint racing will adopt that skin for the racing team Good luck gents Nick Refrence links to help you..

smiley nick 51 Posted September 25, 2006 yes dont be put off by the demo servers, as you can emagin a lot of the players are kids, and noobs who like to wreck, and be childish. The full version is totally different, mature adults who race and play by the rules. Nick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crashdome 3 Posted September 26, 2006 It's OFFICIAL. Thanks to the approval of BIS... We now have BIS logo'd cars in four flavors! Grid #1(Hot) #2(Hot w/ Rainbow) #3(Silver) #4(Basic) Each one is a variation of the original theme. Actual skins are below. Use these by placing your mod logo, etc.. on the car. You have various spots to do so... I suggest using some of these: [*]Left/Right Top of Pods [*]Front of Nose [*]Front Wings [*]Sides of Rear Wings [*]Front of Pods (One line of text just above inlets) [*]Winglets just before Rear Wheels TEXTURES (2048x2048) - Make sure and reduce before uploading to LFS (if you change them) #1(Hot) #2(Hot w/ Rainbow) #3(Silver) #4(Basic) *right-click ... save as... When you do modify the texture, change the name of the file please. Otherwise it will cause problems when trying to upload these to LFS. For example if I added the SoW logo to my car I would name it: BF1_BIS_SOW_1.jpg Where the number is the number contained in the skin. [EDIT] I will be working on creating other cars with same theme. Any preference of which to create first??? FOX? UF1? RB4? etc.. [/EDIT] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
