» Recording

We have acknowledged that some of you would like to record this event. Thus we’ll reserve two slots on each server for dedicated recorders*.
Participants are allowed to record if they so desire to.

*recorders who aren’t participants.

» Rules

The rules have been firmed up, since past experience tell us that an even playing field is hard to achieve without.

1) All cars have to be themed in the pre anno 1985 era. All cars will be judged by the organizers in regards to whether or not they fit in. Fictional car designs are allowed but cars based of real vehicles are preferred, since dating them is easier.

2) There will be two main categories; ACF and E2 powered. Which in turn have separate subcategories.

3) Since the race is a rally and is themed 1985 and prior, all vehicles must have manual gearboxes.

4) All cars will be inspected thoroughly by an organizer. This includes inspection of e2’s. The organizers are of a certain caliber, where “secret sauce”- mentality does not apply. To clarify; we’re not interested in “stealing” code or contraptions, since we’re fully capable of creating whatever we want ourselves. Subsequently, post run inspections might occur, if something fishy or otherwise is going on.

5) All force must be delivered through the wheels. No external force / torque may be applied to the vehicle chassis. This includes: applyForce, applyAngForce, applyTorque and fin. Furthermore, exploiting ballsocket locks in relation to setAng steering is not allowed and will be tested for. Wire clutch, applyTorque and applyAngForce brakes are allowed.

6) Inertia on the wheels’ rotational axis has to be at the default values or more, meanwhile tweaking lateral axes is allowed. This will be tested on every vehicle.

7) Prop drag must remain at the default values. This includes all ACF entities.

8) During the races, the drivers must drive through the courses laid out on the maps. Timing posts/gates will be set up, which the drivers have to clear in order. Taking shortcuts is not allowed and will result in disqualification.

9) Workshop holo bodies are now allowed. E.g. TDMCars, LWCars.

10) If you do not live up to or do not accept rules 1-9 (cough rule 4 cough), you cannot compete.

In addition, the vehicle requires rally-specifications. This includes:
Floodlights
Rollcage
Fender flares (optional)
Racing number of your own choice
Mudflaps (optional)

I’m still working on the rallyfycation on this, as I only saw the thread 10 mins ago.
I’ll update the images when I’ve done doing the stuff.

I’ve done a plate thing for the rally btw. Problem is, its about the size of one of my door panels on my car. I need to try and scale it down but its been done with e2 holo converter.
Help.

Newest way of stealing E2’s?

#5

In my opinion, you should merge the 25-30 size classes, as the wheel 30 diameter’s ability to combat terrain is entirely map dependent.

If you don’t trust us, it’s your problem. As I told Ptuga on the WIP thread; you always have the option to dumb down what ever it is you’re afraid of getting “stolen”. Beyond that you are aware of server admin’s option to download your code as they please, through the remote update right? I mean if you’re THAT scared of losing your secret sauce then you’re limiting yourself to playing on your own server - and that’s it.

Edit: The rules are there to ensure a level playing field. So if it means that you have to dumb down your code, then it’s going to help players with lesser coding abilities.

#9

It’s been this way for most of the rallies ever held and no one has complained since.

also, what kind of rally is this? Is this like “drive over bumpy ass rocks and the like” rally or a “drive stupid fast through dirt roads and city streets” rally?

#10

We’re looking into the possibility of getting a map made, so it’s a bit uncertain at this point. Most likely it’s going to be a tarmac racetrack with a mix of tight and fast turns.

#11

making a rally. does not have a map. BOI

#12

ALMS and I have talked about the map and our conclusion is to go with the backup, as it is too short-of-a-day for someone to make a map. Thus we’re going for good ol’ GM_Redrock.

In addition, we’ve added a section about rally-specification, this can be found under the title ‘Rules’.

#13

gm_redrock again? I’m sorry if I’m offensive but fucking hell we’ve hardly done anything but that map. I understand that there’s a lack of good maps for rallying out there but seriously, gm_fucking_redrock. I doubt many of the cars will even make it up that hill, if we intend to even keep that route from last time (please don’t, I nearly died up there).

Anyways, there seems to be a lack of countryside rallying that doesn’t include stupidly bumpy maps (*ahem gm_forestrally) or shit that’s got about 3 inch thick dust on it (gm_rally).

I hope in the future (either myself will make it or someone else) to have a map possibly based on the Pneumant Rallye courses? Like countryside villages rural road thingys?
Some Examples:

Sound like a good idea? I’m shit with hills and other natural objects atm in hammer, I’ll see what I can do.

Also, gonna put this image in, it always makes me laugh for some reason:

Update

We’re currently discussing about the map as you, Quasar, did make a good point.
We’re working as fast as we can to resolve this. Stay tuned.

Note! Most of the components seen are actually functional! If damaged the car will lose some performance until finally refusing to start.

Ready to spectate!

edit: So yes this is actually a joke entry that just happened to get finished before my actual Rally entry. Due to the Weight of the vehicle this would have been denied anyways. But hey, maybe when we have an anything goes rally we might have classes that could cover vehicles like this.
