Hello!

Some people may have known about this thing, as I have now practiced 3D-modelling ( and planning ), mainly as a hobby. Not really a good one I must say... especially when showing something following.

...after discussions about LFS mods generally, and how time is a limiting factor sometimes, and how everyone creates things differently. Conclusion is to share and see the outcome... mainly to see your reactions. Would I create something like this in real life if I could? Not directly... the front looks like a tortoise has hit a wall, while roof and rear looks imo quite okay.

I am absolutely aware people have their own projects with their limited time and usually, as always, if people has something to complain, they do complain. However, the point is to continuing project.

INFO:

.obj is completely mine, I have created it completely out of nowhere, so you simply CAN'T have a copyright strike, because creator is me, and I am sharing it for free. ( as long as I am credited for... another story is however, do I wish to be credited about this... model )

.obj does contain few errors, mainly on shadings.

Inspiration is based from real life, where designers abandon their projects... only to see a new life in somehow else.

You can modify as anyhow as you like, but same credit rule applies as generally.

I am highly aware of reactions, both positive and negative.

It is basically just an outer shell, but does work within the layout it was originally designed, as well as aerodynamics.

Have fun!

Driver's Head with helmet on is clipping outside of the vehicle. Also AI does not understand to drive it.

Thank you for this one! Planning to make GTR version of it? Or even "no-limit" version?

EDIT: Max Speed I got this vehicle was exactly 400km/h ( very briefly )

Yeah... First of all, I do now remember how freaking bad it was at first place back then that no one else and will ever remember... Embarrassing.

From that dark times, I have at least progressed somewhat into barely decent level. Can't really say I am a proper musician... I can't even play a doorbell properly...

...but that doesn't stop me to develop and attempting all plausible potential I may have. Year is 2023 and have somewhat serious gear now, only lacking some hardware...

...So, here's my best effort so far of electronic music. It is up to you of course about do you find this tune having potential or not.

Times has changed... so have I as well. This is of course a huge bump, that has not been changed.

EDIT : Yes, I do know it does not play perfectly, which I know how to prevent that next time.

Alright... seems like there are plenty of people answered, I just burst a bubble here...

Some years ago, I created this league: https://www.lfs.net/forum/thread/90352-MTDZX--Flat-Out%21-Series%21-Season-2-%28-CANCELLED%21-%29

I was not expecting to anyone joining... but managed to get somewhat alright amount of racers joined per race. Least amount was 4, Most one was 20+ ( at peak moment ).

The funny thing was, numbers were going even higher, but dropped down due 2 reasons:

1: Some inappropriate racing in honest manners.
2: Egos.

First one was clear as sky: Plenty of cheaters using any kind of program which back then managed to sneak out anticheat system. Unfortunately for them, I was already tested absolutely everything in any car back then, so finding these was no issue. Downside was, it dropped amount of participants, because they were banned.

Second thing was a bit odd, which frustrated me in two different occasional times. As LFS Community have these top tier racers, they had ultimately found this out, and was keen to try it out. Amusingly, they thought back then this was just boring full throttle stuff with no real skill involved, but as people happen to say; "truth is more wonderful than fiction".

I admit I was highly excited. Having some top tier racers to fully challenge some hardcore "flat outters"... only to find out it was nothing like that at all.

Turns out their ego couldn't handle enough of having a truth about someone less known is actually MUCH faster than those top tierers, as it was simply so much different type of racing. Setuping the car and knowing the layouts were completely different story, as not every layout was completely full throttle one. So, after they saw their limit ( which could had EASILY lift up in no time, but because it was official league, they didn't dare to do that on the go ), they just moved away. I remember one fellow guy told via TeamSpeak that his ego won't stand about losing, as ppl were 6-7 seconds faster... that was something he never expected ever to happen.

So yeah, I or we ( as a team back then ) managed to grab few, but the ultimate top never joined. This is from my perspective back then.

Nowadays, I have nearly completely moved off from LFS, that time is no longer for me. Although I still sometimes come checking things, even sometime starting LFS and having few laps, but that's that.

( Fun Fact: Cancellation was never about lack of racers, but rather lack of time and lack of technical interest. I have seen that interest has been coming back, but it is too late now. However, if someone is willing to make this kind of league, those layouts are still in these forums to download. Made by me and other people as well. )

This is rather joke ( but in other hand, try to read between lines and actually see, what is happening with us... although... slowly...lol )

...but...There are 3 Superweapons in the world, which they all would destroy everything, especially freedom:

Nuclear Weapons
Propaganda
Finnish Government ( PERKELE )

RB GTR is great!

but that looks like it will be going even faster. That looks like invincible.

Good mod, good modification of the mod will be.

Cultural perspectives. Mother Russia is currently not feeling very well and West is looking an exploit to force and change Russia.

...and all this political complex... and power...

Anyway, I am more and more preparing nuclear world war. Few more events and no one can't go and look back.

There is chance to wipe out nearly whole life in our earth. My suggestion is to enjoy your life while you can ( although no reason to go "maxed out"... at least not yet )

our country is soon in Nato... for now with a proper reason. Not really proud of it... at all... It was fear what caused it... fear of breaking peace... although it doesn't matter anymore. Common sense is off... only power and tactics with clever thinking is the key point here.

So... Do I hate Russians?

- No... but is it relevant in terms of current situation of all of this? I can show care and things... but I have also learned in my life that most important is to take care of yourself.

it's hard to explain, but answer stays as No

I really love these posts really! While things may get heated, with mental pain, agony, full of hatred and things we do not want to see... I do not know about you guys, but I find this kind relaxing and turns me on with a laughter and shining smile... regardless if this is really needed or not.


EDIT: Not that I encourage people to do so, this must only happen naturally... with no single inspirations given in.

I am interested of car having slightly different head lamp colors. Would like to see some release patches of 1,24% offset colors of new head lamps.


EDIT: Not really... not at all... to anything. Release when it's finished, because finished is finished.

Here we go again...

...About military conflict... The biggest and most critical secret is not yet revealed of what is behind of every reason to start conflict/war/military operation.


About do I hate Russians?

My answer is irrelevant.

Quote from booplesnoot :It's not a future simulator, it's a racing simulator using real world data from right now, not what theoretically could exist at some point in time and space.

Yes. Go to real life Blackwood and see what kind of real world telemetry you could get from your XRT.

Pointless... Later --->

So bad argument that I had to actually post. It's like not adding any new track environment content because racing with XR GT Turbo car on that area doesn't exist in real life.

Sim this, sim that... sim everything...

...can't do this or add this because does not exist in real life... can't add myself into game because I am not simulated in real life.

Looks promising... Top Speed test area...no more layouts required in order to make one.. I hope.

Alright... I give up... after several hours, tasks, works and studying... turns out I am not happy with current status of LFS Editor. It is far too short in terms of having features and supports...

...LFS itself is excellent when it is on original status. Extremely optimized, running well and contains not many actual bugs.

with LFS mods, it is still extremely fun. Options are plenty of available... and car/vehicle selections is extremely rising. Motorbikes are fun!

...but when you are REALLY... going top spot work with LFS Editor and nearly no chance of any damn graphical or physical issues... that's where lies a motivation killer...

...I am aware of current LFS editor status, but that doesn't remove the cold fact that current LFS Editor is simply not enough for..."stuff you wouldn't know, but what you could need."

So, I am going back to rocks, back to my stone cave... waiting for another patch of it, with more supports and features as well as brand new LFS...


( Just in case you are wondering: I couldn't make a mod which suffices enough to be driveable...was somewhat close but not enough...current LFS version in both game and editor simply doesn't support enough. )

What? Nothing?


16 square kilometers of flat tarmac. Excellent for top speed stuff.

If that is called "nothing", then farewell!



This is just an excuse. S3 has been 7 years and at first it only contained Rockingham. Bunch of people did upgrade S3 and especially now.

I do not see point of further discussion of this. Or to be honest, I couldn't care less and everybody should do same thing. This is especially true of how things have been developed in specific times.

X13 Stock Coupe...

I found it ultimately very, very very slow. Especially when people are planning to make sub 9 minute laptimes. Mine was 9:11 at best.

I have to enhance setup quite heavily, or just considering to change new car.

EDIT: I am just slow... Seems like I can't tackle corners enough fast. My hands are getting tired right after warm-up lap is done. How on earth I would manage to make 23 laps? Perhaps with random dude, but that is out of the question...

...I have to think something...

Quote from michal 1279 :Q1: As far as I understand, that is correct. (meeting RTFR XL rules)

Q2: Based on experience from previous two runnings, you should be open to write anything on your licence plate without any issue.

Understood. My vehicle has no licence plate at all.
