Hello racers! As you probably know us before, now and then, it is time to wake up and do something unique...


Patch 0.6Q is released with updated mirrors, for me, it was 0.5Q version ( 0.5P ), when I did start LFS. As many years have passed, I am presently known to be a layout maker, themed as FAST... REAL FAST... Flat Out!

MTDZX- is getting 10-year birthday on 25.09.2016 and we are gladly announcing SUPERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR SPECIAL EVENT! ( on that day! )... On this one! ( below )



Yes, this is the little secret revealed! Now how many have done an autocross layout in LFS, which resembles team logo? At least one for now!

This layout contains 2 separate tracks, upper and lower sections, just like in logo. It is Flat Out! themed, so top speed setup is vital here. However, because 6 tight corners each or track, acceleration will become important with big time! As there is no track area in LFS which would had made possible 1:1 logo, it was no chance but scale it to fit in area for multiplayer, so the layout is not perfect. Also, having 1,4 degree limit also did give some minor to major problems, but it all came up for good result.

So, cut the crap, the thing is:

As you have noticed our Flat Out! server ( more info on that link ), it is populated not so often, and usually it is empty, it is time to reveal the fun in other methods again in LFS. And birthday party, is fun!

There will be 2 race events for that specific day, 1 for each track. Cars will be classes 5 and 4. ( organized them as overall top speed ) ( more info of layout itself will come later )


( Layouts are added, it is separated also for 2, 1 or each track, go ahead )

EDIT UPDATE: HERE IS MORE INFO ON LINK BELOW

nice evont

The thing itself just got bigger a bit, take a look.

ok i take

how long did the layout take you?

Quote from johneysvk :

Well, the planning and measuring took 4 days if counting work times due the scalings. It was originally planned in Westhill, but because invisible trees and hit objects in higher than 60 meters, it was impossible due the object limit. I had to start it again, and managed to pull this off.

The layout itself took 13 hours, because 1,4 degree limit of object direction... yet still it has some minor errors, it is not 100% scaled, but very closely.

it took 1800/1800 objects... Would had put walls on straights and other fancy objects for look, but impossible...
