Forgot to mention, LFS in particular doesn't need a high end PC at all - it runs just fine on my ancient work laptop with 512Mb memory, 2 gig P4and a whopping 32Mb graphics card!

Rockmunky · 9 Feb 2007, 13:46 (Ref:1837342)

My ancient system before my new one, i managed a whopping 4fps most of the time on lfs.

Now i get over and above 100, so yes, doesn't need alot of power at all.
Great fun too!

Thanks for the advice guys. I'll give it a go. Quite like the look of GT Legends by the way. Any thoughts on that one? LeMans?

Hammerdown · 9 Feb 2007, 22:45 (Ref:1837717)

Just downloaded LFS alpha demo and won a pro race in the turbo starion/rx7-alike. Accidentaly added seven AI, and the frame rate went a bit squiffy, but great fun and good handling.

[QUOTE=Hammerdown]Just discovered this thread. Thanks to whoever started it on the Sportscar racing section! ... QUOTE]

That'll be me then.
Seeing as it was a question about a Le Mans game I thought that a Le Mans section would have been a sensible place to start.
Sorry.

Hammerdown · 12 Feb 2007, 20:01 (Ref:1839687)

Fine by me, otherwise I probably wouldn't have found this section and discovered LiveForSpeed.

I'll just have to save the LeMans sims for another day.

Have fun with your game and sorry for hijacking your thread!!

Pilgrimage · 13 Feb 2007, 15:38 (Ref:1840451)

Haven't got it yet and no worries re thread hijack!

Is LFS available on PS2?

Rockmunky · 13 Feb 2007, 16:19 (Ref:1840479)

Afraid not, PC only, as it's still in development really.

When it will ever reach a "final" version, i have no idea.

chrisdhall · 16 Feb 2007, 14:26 (Ref:1843178)

I'd go for rfactor or GTR2. Console games just don't give the realism, with a PC it's the closest thing to reallife you'll find..

If your serious about it, have a look at the http://www.Virtualperformanceparts.com kit for authenticity.

There is a couple of versions of LeMans for rFactor, and with the FIA GT mod that's recently been released, setup's some nice GT racing (especially online)

gravel_monkey · 24 Feb 2007, 04:59 (Ref:1850306)

just so you all know gtr was meant to be out on the 23/03/07. due to some probs it has been put back but not to far. new release date for the 360 version is 30/03/3007

shiny side up! · 26 Feb 2007, 22:56 (Ref:1852365)

I will eat my hat if it is in fact released on 30/03/07. March 08 more likely, at this point...

pitviper · 4 Mar 2007, 21:47 (Ref:1858369)

lol... Gravel, just noticed you said it would be released in the year 3007...

For me, a pc version is the final version...... (and always will be!)

Pilgrimage · 4 Sep 2007, 11:21 (Ref:2003461)

I must say - I did buy the PS2 Le Mans game (second hand!) - and did play it a couple of times, but it certainly does leave a lot to be desired. I know that LM is a few years old - but I think the GT4 option might be far better.

**Aysedasi** · 4 Sep 2007, 12:15 (Ref:2003517)

What we need is a custom-designed Le Mans game for the pc. Protos and GTs, with the facility for add-on cars (and circuits) but concentrating on the great race. With the ability to save at any point during the fabled 24 hour run.

Pie in the sky.

rdjones · 4 Sep 2007, 21:32 (Ref:2003872)

I say again Ayse its coming soon on rFactor - http://www.rfactorcentral.com/detail.cfm?ID=LMS

Looking good! - Will this be a PC only release and have you got licensing of all manufacturers?
It may influence my PS2 replacement!

Is a car add on feature for updates/ older cars expected?

**Aysedasi** · 5 Sep 2007, 08:57 (Ref:2004090)

Rob, it talks of

ALMS06, LMS and after the 24h of Le Mans are sheduled.

No mention of the really important race.....

BTW, are you at Silverstone for the LMES?

it's a mod for a pc game, so yeah, it's PC only

and licensing... hush about that

all (most anyway) cars will be in it, but it's not a commercial development, as they won't charge for it.

Now there is a silly question, arriving Friday morning leaving Sunday night

Are you home yet Rob?
