Before selecting host options, you may find it helpful to run LFS and try out the options on the Start New Host screen - the required upload bandwidth for those options is displayed on screen.

The goal of this tutorial is to go through all parts of [[Vehicle Mods|vehicle mod]] creation process in LFS. By the end of the tutorial, you should have an understanding how to create a fully functional vehicle mod from scratch.
  
A command line or a command file is required for dedicated hosts.
+
Before you start, you need an unlocked installation of [[LFS Editor]] and LFS on your computer. If you don’t have it yet, follow the [[LFS Editor]] installation guide.
  
List of commands:
+
[[Category:Mods]]
  
The following command, if used, must be the first command on a

command line or the first command in a command file.
+
== Basic suspension setup ==
 
+
== Modelling ==
/settings=X.txt      :load settings from X.txt instead of cfg.txt
+
== Texturing ==
 
+
== Masses & object positions ==
If the following command is used it must be before any other commands.
+
== Lights ==
 
+
== Dashboard gauges ==
/join=Host Name      :join an internet server
+
== Number plates ==
 
+
== Mirrors ==
The following command may only be used after /join.
+
== Drivetrain ==
 
+
== Engine ==
/pass=Pass          :if required - password
+
== Suspension ==
 
+
== Wheels & tyres ==
The following commands are mainly for hosts but may also be used
+
== Customisable colours ==
to override various cfg.txt settings or start InSim.

You can use a command file xxx.txt instead of a long command line.
 
The command file contains the command line parameters.
 
The parameters can be spread onto several lines.
 
The command file can contain comments, starting with two slashes //
 
Then the command line would be simply:
 
 
 
LFS.exe /cfg=xxx.txt (where xxx.txt is the name of the config file)
 
 
 
 
 
Host commands:
 
--------------
 
Some text commands are intended for hosts and administrators.

simply typing into a nogfx host), the message becomes a command if you
 
start it with a slash character.
