0.7G

15 August 2025

Security update

Support for the new "unlock code" (replacement for old GAME password)
Updates on the "Unlock Live for Speed" screen
- Informative message if your unlock code is not 20 characters
- Clickable links to account details page in unlock error messages
- Automatic exit from unlock screen after successful unlock message
- Error messages if there is any problem getting text from the clipboard
More informative if unlock code needs to be set or is wrong
More helpful if license has been upgraded since the last unlock
- Info about license level and unlock code detected on entry screen
- Flashes the "Unlock" or "Licensed" button if attention is required
- An appropriate message and link is displayed on the unlock screen
- For license upgrade (when code is correct) the unlock button flashes

Privacy update

Warning if you are joining a host that will log your IP address
- Your decision to trust that host is remembered, to avoid asking you again
- You can remove the "trusted" status by clicking the "trusted" button
- List of Hosts has a new IP column to indicate hosts that log your IP address
Stops on "Join Specific Host" after you click a join link on calendar or website
- You will need to click the "GO" button as if you had clicked in List of Hosts

Interface

List of Hosts now has 30 lines and does not show the obsolete status text
Search button in mods screen allows search by Skin ID or the 4-character name
Hover text with description when the mouse cursor is above a blob in the IP column

Graphics

Improved vehicle view radius calculation (bounding sphere)
- LFS can more accurately detect if a vehicle is currently visible
LOD distance refers to distance from bounding sphere instead of object centre
- Previous version did not work well for large objects, e.g. "track mods"
Forces view mode is no longer applied to object mods (e.g. track mods)

Force feedback

Some steering wheels have a driver bug that reports them as "First person controller" device
Then LFS does not know it is a steering wheel, so it does not enable the steering bump stops
There is a new option, in "Axes / FF" section to manually enable steering wheel bump stops
Do not use this if your controller is not a steering wheel

VR

Some VR headsets can have a FOV aspect ratio that is different from their pixel aspect ratio
Until now LFS did not deal with that case correctly, as seen with the HTC Vive Pro 2
LFS now uses the left, right, up, down FOV values more directly to avoid the problem

InSim

System to allow AI drivers to be directly controlled by a local InSim program

AI drivers

AI can now spawn in a config with an AI path even if knw has not been generated
FIX: AI now spawn in game with full fuel load if there is no path (or no knw)
FIX: Rare crash in AI code after another car spawned outside path

The full resolution reported by the controller is now supported
- previously drivers were instructed to report -1000 to 1000
- controllers we tested report values 0 to 65535 (smaller steps)
The range adjusters in controller options now use percentage values
- the range defaults replicate previously default in-game behaviour
- previously brake/throttle/handbrake/clutch axes had a dead zone
- the dead zones were not adjustable by the user but now are
- the axes visible in game now match the options screen

Optimisations

Decreased CPU used when drawing tyres
- reduces CPU used by official GTR cars by around 7%
- smaller optimisation for suspension parts
Combine rim and spoke object into a single subobject
- saves 4 extra subobject switches for most cars
An optimisation specially for external views
- avoid begin/end scene when drawing env maps/shadows
Tiny opt when drawing driver (avoid some integer maths)
Tiny opt (set projection matrix only once per frame)

Local text commands

/rtex does a full texture reload from any screen
/vlock=car/filter/horizon
/lookf=joystick/axis/steer/mouse_x/mouse_xy
/control=mouse_kb/wheel_js
FIX: Multiple commands now allow more than 1 space between commands

Mark host as favourite and sort by favourites in list of hosts
Sort by server location (two-letter country code) column
FIX: Multiplayer hosts used to get stuck after 49.7 days
FIX: JOOS on connect when a car, now disallowed, is on track
FIX: Old version could sometimes fail to spectate a blocking car

Graphics

Layout Square cameras now have 40m height instead of 4m
Reduced jiggling of names above cars at extreme zoom
Improved accuracy of camera rotation at extreme zoom
FIX: New steer animation for BF1 stops driver toes protruding

InSim

NLP/MCI packets are no longer sent after clicking replay slider
- also not sent after IS_RIP unless RIPOPT_FULL_PHYS is set
IS_IPB / TINY_IPB - set / get list of IP bans
FIX: Minor documentation errors in InSim.txt

- was possible for a powerful car to overspeed shifting 1st to 2nd
Use speed limiter or throttle to avoid wheelspins causing speeding
Smoother transitions switching between main path and pit lane path
FIX: Slow start / stuck in pit stop if max torque at very low rpm
FIX: Some mods would brake too gently and miss the pit stop point
FIX: Choice of pit stop box was wrong (bug introduced in 0.7B)

- there will be a higher charge for 79 connections
- free hosts are still limited to 47 connections
- maximum cars in race has not been increased

Improved setting of tyre state after receiving a position packet
- previous location of tyre contact is better estimated (for forces)
- most noticeable when viewed car had not been on screen for a while
- e.g. after tabbing to another car or fast forwarding a replay

Misc option "Full physics for remote cars" is enabled by default
- low res physics previously used for cars other than the 4 nearest
- option approximately doubles CPU usage by physics in multiplayer
- could cause issues at turn 1 with many cars depending on PC power
- use profiler display to check CPU usage with the option enabled

/teamarrows=no/yes - arrows on non-race small map use name colour
/key command accepts 12 keys described by a word (see Commands.txt)

/status none|F9|F10|F11|F12|next|prev - sets status screen
E.g. /status next will cycle through the F9 to F12 status screens
(you could assign it to a CTRL+ or ALT+ key and then a wheel button)

/liveset and /pitins - do the functions of F11 and F12 menus

You can use operators

= (set value)
+= (add to value)
-= (subtract from value)

Examples

/pitins ftyre = r3 : change front tyres to R3 in pit stop
/pitins rtyre = super : change rear tyres to road super
/pitins fpressure = 1.1 : set front tyre pressure to 1.1 bar
/pitins fpressure += 0.1 : increase requested pressure by 0.1 bar
/pitins cancel : cancel all pit instructions
/pitins tyres always : change all tyres
/pitins tyres 20 : change tyres if wear > 20%
/liveset bbal 60 : set brake balance to 60%

/pitins pressure commands can accept unit (psi/bar) (no unit = bar)
E.g. /pitins fpressure 30 psi

Available options for /liveset

bbal, farb, rarb

Multiple commands on single line

Multiple commands can now be added on a single line which sometimes
can avoid the need for a script file, e.g. to set a button to
change tyres in pit stop, you could use a double command:
/pitins ftyre super /pitins rtyre super

NOTE: some commands cannot be followed by another command:
/say /echo /join /rcm /pass /msg /altf /ctrlf

Maximum length of command and F key text increased to 95 characters
Wider text display in CTRL+ and ALT+ tabs in controls screen

New commands

/zero_all
- Reset all lap counters and checkpoints passed as if the race had
just been started. This removes checkpoints passed.
So using this command on the first lap, before the first
checkpoint is passed, has no effect. After the first
checkpoint there is an effect. The first lap will not be
counted. This is intended to help with a rolling start after
a parade lap.

/setlap username X
- X is positive : Set the lap that the user is currently on (as
seen at the top right, not the number of laps completed). This
does not affect checkpoints passed. This may help with a driver
who reconnects after an unintended disconnection.
- X is zero : Same as the /zero_all command but for one driver.
- X is negative : subtract from the number of laps, without
affecting checkpoints passed. This may be useful as a penalty.

Improved multiple monitor and curved screen support

The number of left and right screens can be manually entered in the View Options screen and you can set the angle between monitors.
If you specify more than one screen, multiple views are rendered in different directions. This allows much wider fields of view.
2 screens - maximum FOV 180 degrees
3 screens - maximum FOV 270 degrees
4 or more screens - maximum FOV 360 degrees
The FOV slider does not set the total field of view. Instead, you set the FOV of the main screen. LFS then calculates each screen's field of view and offset according to your settings.
Use "Screen angle" setting to specify the angle between monitors.
Use "View offset" to move the steering wheel off centre.

There are three separate sets of settings that are used depending on the screen size

Screen width 3.75 times the height -> wide mode (default 3 screen)
Screen width 2.5 times the height -> medium mode (default 2 screen)
Otherwise normal (single screen) mode is active (default 1 screen)

These three sets all have the same available settings but different default values. This is so that if you have a wide screen setup then LFS will still look good when you reduce it to a normal window, because at that point it will automatically use "normal" mode.
To reproduce the old single projection 3 three screen mode, either - set the number of left and right screens to zero, or - set left and right screens to 1 and set "Screen angle" to zero.
A curved screen can be supported by setting the number of left and right screens to the maximum of 5 each. This 11 screen setup is an approximate cylindrical projection, ideal for curved screens.
Various other setups can now be properly supported, for example :

- A 2 screen setup with side screen at 30 degrees and offset wheel
- A 5 screen setup with each screen at 45 degrees - total FOV 225
- A 3 projector setup with each screen at 90 degrees - total FOV 270

Note

External views (TV, helicopter and SHIFT+U mode) are always drawn as a single render and usually confined to the 2D interface area.

Related settings

Option to force external views to use full width
Bezel compensation - to allow for the gap between monitors
Screen widths - for centre and side screens with a different width

Other changes to view system

Two button look (left + right) is now double the one button look and this allows up to 180 degrees look (like old versions of LFS).
Rear look (instant 180 degree view from centre of car) is now the same on all cars (no longer shows a virtual mirror) but is disallowed if the host activates forced cockpit view.
Driving view Z-buffering improved so you should not usually see missing parts of your seat or the car body when looking around.
Mouse steer/look/axes now relative to interface (not entire screen)
New command : /view save - save any changes made to a custom view
New command : /view reload - reload a custom view without saving

Scrutineering is permanently on - this means that players with cars that have been modified can only link up with other players with the exact same modifications. The aim of this is to exclude cheating players while still allowing modified players to connect online. Forcing the cars to be equal is also essential for the multiplayer prediction.
More info on the List of Games screen - when you see a host that is version D, the letters F, R and T signify the host's allowed cars: F:XF GTI - R:XR GT - T:XR GT TURBO
Multiple controller support - multiple controllers are now supported. This is a completely new inputs and force feedback system and your input settings will have to be re-entered.

+=== Improved multiple monitor and curved screen support ===
-The number of left and right screens can be manually entered in the View Options screen and you can set the angle between monitors.<br />
-If you specify more than one screen, multiple views are rendered in different directions. This allows much wider fields of view.<br />
+* The number of left and right screens can be manually entered in the View Options screen and you can set the angle between monitors.
-screens - maximum FOV 180 degrees<br />
+* If you specify more than one screen, multiple views are rendered in different directions. This allows much wider fields of view.
-screens - maximum FOV 270 degrees<br />
+* 2 screens - maximum FOV 180 degrees
-or more screens - maximum FOV 360 degrees<br />
+* 3 screens - maximum FOV 270 degrees
-The FOV slider does not set the total field of view. Instead, you set the FOV of the main screen. LFS then calculates each screen's field of view and offset according to your settings.<br />

+* Otherwise normal (single screen) mode is active (default 1 screen)
-These three sets all have the same available settings but different default values. This is so that if you have a wide screen setup then LFS will still look good when you reduce it to a normal window, because at that point it will automatically use "normal" mode.<br />
-To reproduce the old single projection 3 three screen mode, either - set the number of left and right screens to zero, or - set left and right screens to 1 and set "Screen angle" to zero.<br />
