Wabburio Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Is is possible to edit the drifting on LR1 yet? Most racing games with drifting, like Mario Kart, Diddy Kong racing and Sonic and (Sega) All stars racing (Transformed), have drifting as a key part to increasing speed. Is is possible to have a similar system on LR1? At the moment Drifting on LR1 is basically horrible compared to other racing games. The cornering is too tight meaning you're more likely to hit the wall than go round a corner. It would be nice to see the drifting fixed and to be more useful in a race.

lol username Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 I agree that LR1's drifting is flat-out horrible, but I'm not sure if there's any way to change it - seems to me that things like car controls/physics would be hardcoded for the most part (aside from maybe some variables in configuration files here and there), at least to the extent of making drifiting give speed boosts impossible.

McJobless Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 I'm going to have to agree, vehicle physics are most likely hardcoded. Even then, I doubt it would be a simple "change X value to Y". You'd probably have to rebuild the entire physics model to get drifting to respond the way you want. In the meantime, *Need for Speed Underground 2*.

RobExplorien Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Funny thing is, I never knew about the drifting until recently, about a year ago. Just by chance actually, when I pressed the wrong key (which was the drift-key). Nowadays, I still don't drift, AI's don't either . But to get to the point of this topic, at the moment I will have to agree with the difficulty of changing car physics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FASTER!!! around the corners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcom Isst Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 I have drift bound to the trigger on my joystick. It helps me to, uhh... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LimeKiller Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 I've never really had a problem with the "drifting". I think it's because I never saw it as a traditional drift, but as a... well, powerslide, to take corners really quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
