If you are currently on a 0.8B public testing version, make sure to update it to 0.8C manually, using the patch in the linked forum thread.

If you haven't tried the 0.8B version at all, you can download the full 0.8C setup in the forum thread (in this case, you should install the 0.8C testing version as a separate install in a separate folder).

For the public testing branch, online servers require 0.8C client now!

Unfortunately, you cannot get this update using the in-game updater - the patch is too large for the current updater system, as it contains updated tracks. Scawen is planning to work on the in-game updater, so that such large patches can work as well.

See changes from 0.8B41 to 0.8C here: https://www.lfs.net/forum/thread/114801

Help I have a small issue...

2 Upvotes

I haven't been able to get the pedal settings right with this game since I've downloaded it 6 months ago.

The real issue is throttle and brake are automatically swapped and the game refuses to remap them.

I don't have a g920 anymore, but the game didn't map them properly no matter what I did, the moza r3 I have now can't be mapped either. Other games work well but this one. Does anyone have a fix?

Help Wheel detected, but not working

Hi,
I have a PXN VD6 and it used to work fine. Now I see the wheel detected as one of the controllers but the axis and buttons etc are all dead. I cannot assign anything with the wheel.

Any ideas?
Thanks :)

Help I cant connect to the game server

2 Upvotes

My dad used to play the game back in 2009, and he just now found it again. He had a paid license but we dont remember the user or the password. We reset the password and tried almost every username we could think of, but nothing worked, it always said the game cant connect to the game server. We disabled the firewall but we have absolutely no idea how to make it work. Does anyone have an idea? Thanks
