Changes from 0.6H to 0.6J :<\/strong><\/p>\nOptimisations :<\/p>\n
Static vertex buffers reorganised to reduce DirectX instructions
\nFrames buffered (default 1) to allow next frame to start rendering
\nMore efficient car distance sorting system for sound and graphics
\nDynamic vertex buffers now set to use hardware vertex processing
\nBetter frame rate in places where many objects may be visible<\/p>\n
Graphics :<\/p>\n
Sky texture is now drawn in mirrors
\nLayout editor object selection buttons are sorted by distance
\nZ-buffer depth setting can now be changed without restarting LFS
\nMirror now uses 24 bit Z buffer if Z buffer setting is more than 16<\/p>\n
Frame rate limitation system :<\/p>\n
Frame rate limitation system is now accurate and has better values
\nNew frame info display shows sleep \/ physics updates \/ gpu waiting
\nNow using an event query instead of a lock for input lag prevention
\nMinimum sleep setting changed to “Sleep every frame” (yes \/ no)<\/p>\n
Misc :<\/p>\n
Now using Direct3D 9Ex if available (Windows Vista and later)
\nReduced glitch when autocross objects are optimised (e.g. on load)
\nReduced min \/ max values for “Sound lag” setting – default now 0.08
\nNew Audio Option “Sound when window is inactive” (off \/ on)<\/p>\n
3D view modes :<\/p>\n
Added a 3D level slider option to adjust monitor-based 3D views
\nReduced CPU \/ GPU usage by sharing scene preparation for both eyes<\/p>\n
Oculus Rift :<\/p>\n
Now using Oculus SDK version 0.6.0.1 which includes timewarp
\nYou can now enter and leave Rift mode without restarting LFS
\nSmooth display (if you do not use SLI or force vertical sync)
\nMonitor window view options : blank \/ one eye \/ two eyes<\/p>\n
Oculus Rift compatibility mode :<\/p>\n
For users who cannot use the Oculus 0.6 runtime, you can still use
\nthe 0.5 runtime. Simply rename the ORDIRECT.dll to some other name
\nand LFS will then use LFSORDLL.dll instead (extended mode only).<\/p>\n
Fixes :<\/p>\n
Some buildings at Westhill track were drawn using a slow method
\nMouse clipped to window (CTRL+C) now works properly with ALT+TAB
\nUsing mouse wheel to change gear did not work properly at high fps
\nLayout editor object selection buttons used interface button slots
\nCrash changing texture resolution with two or more objects selected
\nAnisotropic filtering did not work on car textures (including skin)<\/p>\n
TIPS on using Live for Speed with an Oculus Rift DK2 :<\/strong><\/p>\nNOTE : Oculus runtime 0.6.0.1 (or later) is required<\/p>\n
1) How to enter Rift mode in LFS :
\n– Start LFS and click 3D on the View Options Screen
\n– Select Oculus Rift and click OK<\/p>\n
2) To reset your seating position, the text command \/rift reset is assigned by default to the F8 key.
\n– When a new driver takes over, ask them to look straight ahead then press F8
\n– Key assignments can be edited in Options – Game – F1 to F8<\/p>\n
3) Accessing your desktop while LFS is on the Rift.
\n– You will find that your mouse cursor is confined to the Rift’s virtual monitor
\n– Press CTRL+C to free the mouse and now the mouse can go onto the desktop<\/p>\n
4) Optional command line options \/rift=on and \/rift=off
\nUse e.g. in a shortcut to make sure Rift mode is entered or not
\nLFS.exe \/rift=on – try to go straight into Rift mode
\nLFS.exe \/rift=off – do not go into Rift (ignores previous mode)<\/p>\n
