Im confused as to fitting a curved helmet picture or element to a flat template without warping the design, or do you guys make the graphics from scratch?

This could be too much corner speed, combined with bad steering corrections from the rider. Sudden camber changes at max lean often cause crashes if you don't account for the change in grip yourself. The rider doesn't account for the new max lean angle fast enough. Similarly if you run in hot in some slow corners at max lean, the rider will try to add lean angle for some reason. Maybe it detects the extra weight/grip at the front on entry, but your at mid corner by the time it adds lean. Playing with your direct lean setting might help.

If you post a video or screenshot it should be easy to tell. Is this happening mid corner, entry or exit? Your just coasting right, no brake/gas?

Ace! When I pack, a "save as" window comes up. Is this normal? I assumed this was to rename so as not to overwrite the original pnt. Not sure why you have an option to rename the file at that point if it ruins the packing.

Thank you very much, see you on track.

Files are named correctly.



Arai RX-7 GP solid blue helmet, change I made was some red scribbling.

I assume you meant arai helmet model, and I do. Skins for it show up fine, so I assume it's installed right. The .tga file names I used were test, helmet-livery, and nakasuga.




Thanks

This is my 1st time making a skin for this game. Followed the guide for skinning, but when I make changes to an existing skin they don't show. I have started with beta6c default skin, arai template, and an arai competed skin. These load fine in game, and in the "painted" program when I unpack them.  After I PS them and open them in painted for repack, the skin preview is greyed out. Though in game the skin opens fine, but looks unedited.

I like a little bit until I learn a bike/circuit. For bumpy/slick circuits or Motogp bikes it's a good safety net, so i'll leave it on but fairly low.

It's interesting to see the different riding styles and control setups here. I'll post a vid on Suzuka my fav track, after I get controls setup for this patch.

CoRe is an LFS race team, so check lfsforums.

What is the max acceptable ping? Im getting 116-130 from US.

 Im from Virginia, 21yrs and started riding at 16. Ive been sim racing (Live for Speed) sense 07. Driven 80,000 miles, won half the 4,000 some races I finished. The LFS racers are really dedicated, but people here are all nice and close knit. Hope to have good races with you guys in the future. Like Matty, I had a Triumph Daytona 675 but as a first bike. Now just a beat up sv650 superstock race bike. I don't race yet, but at least I can't blame the kit unless it goes pop.
