SEMA is here and Hellaflush car is the latest fashion. The only question is: does than insane camber and grounded-to-the-ground appearance affect handling? I aim to find out using Live for Speed to make my own StanceNation racer.

Framerate are you there? It's me, Jake.

I have a fucking Phenom II X2 @ 3ghz, 8GB RAM, and an HD7770. There is NO REASON for it to be lagging, even if it is at 1080p.

Turn your resolution down a notch or two, it does wonders for the framerate. Sure, I could play my games at 1920x1200, but 1600x1000 still looks fine and gives me much more consistency.

Yeah, I might drop it a bit, but when you're 26 inches away from a 42 inch TV it gets really annoying to be at anything other than native res

Oh, you play on a TV. Gotcha.

Yeah. Decent LG unit. Pretty awesome because it fills up my ENTIRE field of view with glorious simulationism. I need to get Project CARS or something a bit more modern, though.

This is semi related, but has anyone managed to use a Dualshock 4 controller for live for speed? I can't map the controls to save my life.

playstation controller support for windows is spotty at best as it is... You're much better off picking up a wired xb360 controller or Logitech controller for $20 and using that

that's the thing, I use DS4 tool, and at least for a ps4 controller, it tricks the computer into thinking its an x360 controller. Every other racing game plays well except for LFS.

Gaming controllers in Windows = finicky

Using workaround methods/tweaks to get unsupported gaming controllers to work in Windows as well as a supported one = HAHAHAHAHAHA

The more layers you add between the hardware and software the more likely it is something will screw up, and it's honestly easier to just throw $20 at the problem and get a controller specifically for PC usage, unfortunately.

When RCR became a thing my friends saw it and thought it was me. I don't hear the resemblance, but I guess it's there.
