Okay! I might see a problem!


Suggest any day/s and any starting time/s please. Not gonna do a poll, so let's just stick on reply posting.

( Yes, it is about Season 2 Flat Out! )

Quote from jh89 :

31118

Ye good, thanks, though obvious number but nonetheless!




I am working to push through Season 2. Estimated start time will not be revealed, but let's say, we can see a corner ahead and assuming it SHOULD be right behind of it!

Okay!!! Everything starts to be most likely ready. Stay tuned as Season 2 of Flat Out! will be announced at this week!


EDIT 31.01.2018 / 04:11: Heh, I should go sleep and I do so right away. In the meantime, someone select and post as a reply as any four, five or six digit number, which doesn't start as zero ( e.g. 0458 is incorrect. )

That's like over three years now. In other words, things have still worked solid here, so I see no problem at all.

Quote from lucaf :

that tunnel part is creative, nice

That is btw very wise and nice way sharing layouts via SPR file, so user gets the layout + one sample lap how to drive it, excellent!

It's not ready, and it was not supposed to share, at least not yet . Though in other hand, I might leave it as it would be now.

Then, ultimately we get this!

EDIT: Added replay from first test ever. ( Also purposely crashed on pipe section, to see aftermath )


EDIT: After the replay, I did remember how certain people complains about how dull is the look of driving on concrete path...

...I Agree! That's why I made physical scars on this certain layout! Excellent! ( Pic added )

Quote from Racon :

...but is it faster to slow down for the entry/exit and drive straight down the middle, or to keep your speed up throughout and loop all the way down the tube?

I do not know, as I only build the stuff. Testing happens under this server or Test server, either by you folks or just me .

"it would be cool..."

Quote from versis :

Please post, I'm curious

No, sucks, I will rebuild it first. Takes up approximately 4 work hours.

Quote from sermilan :

So it seams that you have a brother that you didn't know of?

I feel sorry about him, if that's the case.




Nevertheless, I managed to make this one which works completely well!

EDIT: Then... we can make like this!

EDIT: Then... we can set and build complete course including the pipe!

Nope. I have only driven reverse in real life and LFS and on arcade game which i do not remember.

Quote from redbot_ :

Inspired be me? Hmm....

Sometimes it is only required by someone driving in certain spot. It happened to be you, while ago in Westhill.

Okay, I managed to do something for T1, but it isn't full banked section, more like banked outskirt.

Server is opened for a TEST!, and for while only! join now

Quote from versis :

Cool, take your time in the meantime I fixed a few issues and added scenery so your additions will be limited to ~350 objects

It's game over then

Quote from versis :

Glad you like it sure, go ahead, I'm curious what you will do to T1 xD

I will start as soon as I ( or we ) manage to make Flat Out! server working again. Well, it basically already works, but certain aspects requires update first, also few other things as well

Interesting!!! ( For me, obviously )


EDIT: Excellent! If you are not willing to make any further progress of this, I will overhaul T1 then

Quote from lucaf :

If I knew UM21 flips his car before finish, I wouldnt mind to divebomb him

Ah, was full of challenges this one, watched the replay That one damn kerb in turn 13 (turn 7 in Green layout) was fatal for UM21 and Katila and who else? I flipped also there but rolled back on wheels

Maybe would be good idea to put additional stuff - layout objects there that you don't cut it so much (and flip).

I was little bit surprised that so few people really prepared their suspensions for surviving the bump fun.

no!

Quote from lucaf :

What a race. So much expectations in advance bcs I was confident about my pace (IK may sound like a joke). And so much frustration by all (own) mistakes one can ever done during an event.

Let's start with the quali. Came into quali excited, and did several laps wondering where is my pace. After quali I realize I was running wrong setup.

Nevermind, I thought at least I will be competitive in the race. Nice start to the race and I decide to make "King pit strategy" = early stop.

I rush into the pits excited, and instead of putting neutral gear, I put reverse gear. After refueling drifts backward instead of waiting for the mandatory 10 sec and I am like "wtf" and try to get rid of the pits quickly, understanding I have messed it all up, once again.

I exit to the track and realize my clutch has been heated up to 38% and the car doesn't like to speed up very well I somehow manage to cruise along the track and at the end of the lap I begin to recover my normal pace, clutch being cooled to 20%.

Nah, the race was young, some three lap or smthing behind, I think I begin a massive recover now. Was it next lap or smthing, I have problems to concentrate on my driving, instead Im reading what guys are talking in chat -> mischange in gears and 0.74% engine damage. "Fk" i was in my mind, almost spectating but then decided to suffer my own stupidity wishing I will learn better that way.

Somehow I didnt so bad so far, or was it just the unluck of other drivers, but in some point I found myself in a very nice battle with Mandula, and we fought several laps until...of course I flipped my vechile. Did a full roll back on wheels and I was almost done.

Decided to continue since I wasnt last. Somebody else had also bad day, since I found myself battling with UM21. Again too excited, I was divebombing both of us off track, but decided to kiss the nearest wall and save UM21 from additional unlucky moments.

In this situation I was enjoying the race in totally different perspective that what it was in the start. Surprisingly the engine damage didn't affect dramatically my pace, I think maybe at max 1sec per lap, or, how can I know..

The last laps were still entertaining and fun, great chase and drive from Kid, who managed to pass me although I was sure I will keep him behind.

So, long story from frustration and disappointment - what else one can do but try to transform the negative into positive. After all I was pleased I had patience to finish the race. Thanks to everyone who was sharing the fun

What a detailed story!!! +rep

But I don't recall I had a bad day. The bad day was on Sunday lol.

Quote from ltras23 :

Since when LFS become Bus Simulator X?

I know the answer, at least 10 years ago, but can't show the stuff.

You mean the default setup which comes as very first, and setup which is done afterwards and which is considered to be a very best?

If so, then comparion: BIG TIME!

Excellent! Everything should be ultimately ready in this week and finally opening server again for public. ( Few ppl did already join up, although not really allowed, heh. Well... not that there is anything to hide, but keeping on private as principal thought, wanna have complete clean restart. )
