Stunts Competition!

[Sebatianos]

Hi!

I guess you all know the great racing game STUNTS (http://www.abandonia.com/games/73/Stunts.htm). So I suggest we make a little competition. I just made a track (this one will open the season). I finished it, but my time wasn't anything special (and I used the best car around). I expect you to beat my time, but who'll be the fastest?

You all have until Sunday, September 4th to compete on this course and send me your best times. I'll anounce the winner on Monday, September 5th, First prize will be - your own track.

So the next racing track will be made by the person who will have the best time on this one (and so on).

You can send me the times and tracks to my e-mail: Sebatianos@yahoo.co.uk

Here is the track: START (http://www.abandonia.com/~sebatianos/Stunts/Start.zip)

[Doubler]

EDIT: Just reread the thread. :P
I'll sent in the results on the 4th. Do you need any kind of proof Sebatianos?

Oh, and I keep a replay of my fastest try. It might be fun if the other contestants do the same :w00t:

[TheVoid]

DArn. This track is hard :blink:

Great idea! This is both proof and fun! People might also save some great chrashes (that's even more fun! :evil: ).

[Aristharus]

Oh my god, a great idea for a competition! I'm in!

Damn, if I just could find my old disc with this game on it. I bet it had some great tracks on it.

[Sebatianos]

Just a quick reminder: Tommorow is the ldead-line to send in your times for this track! The winner will get to submit the next track will all compete on! :ok:

[Doubler]

How will we submit our times? Can we just post a screenshot in this topic?

EDIT: Sorry, missed that. I'll post it here, and add my replay as proof :)

But if you like to - you can also post it here (just make a screenshot of it, so you can prove yur time).

[TheVoid]

Here it is, then...with some training I managed to better the previous times I sent to Seba.

[TheVoid]

And the replay of the record race.

[Sebatianos]

Also if you get some spectacular crashes - that might be fun...
You have untill midnight tomorrow - Sunday the 4th (GTM + 1) to submit the times.
I'll announce the winner on Monday!

Here's a very weird landing...

[Doubler]

As the beginning of this particular try went bunkers (you can see me hitting the side of the tunnel) I decided to take one of my favorite pastimes, looping (really, it is :P), to a new level.
The ending is entirely in line :)

[Sebatianos]

Well this is my favorite replay (from the ones I had)

[Doubler]

For some reason your replay is only a second long for me :blink:
I tried redownloading it, but to no effect.

[TheVoid]

"Leapfrog" lasts only 1 second, and "Looping" just shows the car hitting the side of the tunnel and burning for 30 seconds. :huh:

There must be something with different versions of the game?

[Sebatianos]

I can't see any of your replays - it's like they'd be empty.

Maybe the replays shouldn't be attached tot he boards?

[Doubler]

I've got version 1.1, Abandonia's got version 1.0.
What versions do you have?
It can't be the boards, as theVoid's works perfectly for me.

[Sebatianos]

Mine's v1.1 (February 12, 1991).

EDIT: I just downloaded all the replays again - and only mine worked for me... I guess different game versions only play their own replays...
Maybe we should all have the same version?

[Doubler]

Mine's v1.1 (February 12, 1991).
:blink:
Version 1.1 (December 13, 1990)

That can't have been a very extensive revision, made in those two months :P

EDIT: Figured.
Take a look at this (http://www.kalpen.de/stunts/downldst.htm) page. The first full download is the 1.0 of Abandonia, the second is Sebatianos' 1.1 version, the third is my 1.1 version (allthough the download adds a lot of junk) that I've played for over thirteen years now.

[Sebatianos]

Well I just deleted mine version - and put on the one from Abandonia (everything works fine). I guess there was just something wrong with my replay (it's the only one that doesn't quite work).

[TheVoid]

I'm actually using the one I downloaded from Abandonia.

[Sebatianos]

Well here's the leapfrog again (I gues this one should work now).

BTW - There's just a bit over 12 hours left until the end of first tournament week - Thus far the best resoults I've looked at are around 1:58 - you still have time to submit your best time!

[Abi79]

I didn't even finish your track once. I'm still trying.

EDIT: Another crash. :hairpull:

[SupSuper]

My best time is 2:07, gah, gotta do better!

[Sebatianos]

Well I guess the Jaguar can be pretty damn good on this track (and there's a trick to it :sneaky: ).
BTW - watch this replay - it's awesome!

[SupSuper]

BOOYAH! :Brain:

Exactly what file should I e-mail that contains the times? START.HIG?

[Sebatianos]

well it's acctually either mail - or post here (to prove that you really got that time).

Your time is :kosta: . If ou're the winner you get to submit the next track we'll all be running on! (that would be yourtrack.trk).

Got even better! (edited the previous post)

Here's the times.

[SupSuper]

And here's the replay.

I have to check if I have some good tracks already made or if I have to make a new one.

[Doubler]

UPDATED

My entry:
http://img276.imageshack.us/img276/439/load0062hb.png

And the replay (you're not the only one who can pull tricks, Sebatianos :sneaky: ):
NOTE: You've propably got to use my version to see this. But some of you may be able to shave a couple of seconds off, so it may be worth it.

[SupSuper]

Hmmm, this was funny. My car went so fast it just took off the ground.

[Sebatianos]

@Doubler: WTF???
I saw your replay and I don't understand! It shows you crash in the first tunes (some 10 seconds after the start) and then the car just keeps burning until it reaches the time - 1:38:65! :eeeeeh: This makes no sense.

[TheVoid]

The replay lasts 1 second only. <_< The same problem experienced before.

However, here's my ultimate chart. I think I'd hardly make something better.

[Doubler]

Sebatianos, you need to use my version to view it correctly. It's linked somewhere earlier in this thread.
Funny thing is, SupSuper's replay seems to error no matter what version I play it in, allthough the later 1.1 (not my 1.1 from december 1990, but that one from february 1991) does show something.

[Sebatianos]

Hm... I think that TAKEOFF was rewind... If you put the replay to the begining before saving it - it may cause that problem (at least it did with my previous version).

And it also messes up my game. Now I start on the grass 90 degrees off the starting post :blink:

BTW - here are the current standing (although not everybody submited their resoults yet) - a bit more the SIX HOURS to go:

1st - Doubler 1:37:65
2nd - SupSuper 1:43:55
3rd - TheVoid 1:50:45
4th - Sebatianos 1:53:75 (I keep crashing at the very end - twice in the finish pole)! :cry:

My version is the 1.1 Feb 1991.
Your replay gives me a broken track: the whole track is moved some squares to the left so that the banked road is broken.

[Doubler]

We need to standardize versions for the next track.
I propose my version (wouldn't I :P ), as (for me) it's the only one that gives me sound in XP (and it runs perfectly too), and I can't run any of the versions in DosBox anyway.

[Sebatianos]

Not even the one we have here on abandonia???

[Doubler]

no.
Well, they all run, but without sound and very, very sluggish :tai:

They all run perfectly in XP, except that my own version is the only one that gives sound. And sound is important in the game.

[SupSuper]

My version works fine on DOSBox and on XP without sound (though I can fix that with VDMS).

[TheVoid]

Uhm, Doubler, I just saw your replay....Are we allowed to race like that? I mean, avoiding some stunts? I tried to complete it using them all. <_<

[SupSuper]

Uhm, Doubler, I just saw your replay....Are we allowed to race like that? I mean, avoiding some stunts? I tried to complete it using them all.* <_<
As long as you finish it I think it's perfectly okay, I did it too. I jumped over the first corkscrew.

[Doubler]

Uhm, Doubler, I just saw your replay....Are we allowed to race like that? I mean, avoiding some stunts? I tried to complete it using them all.* In my opionion it's part of the game, figuring out how to drive the fastest route.
These opportunities are not always present, and when they are, they're not always faster.

[Sebatianos]

Well the game punishes you if you take shortcuts, but it doesn't mind if you skip something... So I guess the game is in itself a referee. The final score should count - no matter what you skip :sneaky:

[SupSuper]

Ok I got 1:43, I think that's as far as I can go. Updated the previous posts.

[Sebatianos]

@Doubler - now that I downloaded your version - I get the same error I got before when I wanted to watch Super's replay... :wall:

[SupSuper]

I tried Doubler's replay on the Abandonia version (1.0 Oct 1990) and I get the same problem Sebatianos first did, he crashes on the beginnning and stays there for the rest of the time. I tried my replay and it only lasts 1 second.
I also tried playing the track on it and it's impossible, the car crashes right on the first jump.

[SupSuper]

Sorry about the double-post, but here you can get all the versions: http://stunts.illusionwd.com/download.html

Stunts 1.0 is the Abandonia version and I suspect Sebastianos' version.

Stunts 1.1 is my version.

4D Sports 1.1 is Doubler's version (replay works fine on it).

Now I'm off to beat Doubler's time now that I know his trick :sneaky:

[Sebatianos]

I just realised something!

Different versions let you do (not let you do) different things!
Example - 4DStunts11 - let you skip the loop (I couldn't do that effectivly with my version).
V1.0. - let's you jump throught the roof of the tunel - 4D doesn't...

So for the next track we deffinetly need the unified version!!!
I guess 4D is the newest and runs normaly in WinXP as well, so we may use that one - or the Abandonia version (that's why we have it).

Hands up to vote!!!

My vote goes for abandonia version (V 1.0)

[TheVoid]

So does mine.

[Doubler]

Example - 4DStunts11 - let you skip the loop (I couldn't do that effectivly with my version).Are you sure? It's quite difficult to do.
EDIT: It is possible in 1.0.

Anyway, my vote goes to 4D, mainly because I won't be able to participate effectively on any other version. I use sound to detect how far I can go in turning, and I don't have that on V1.0.
EDIT: Besides, 1.0 physics are weird :P

[Abi79]

Mine too.

I managed (after 10 hours) to finish the track in 2:48 minutes. If you want to see how bad I can play :P download this replay.

[Doubler]

The difference between versions is minimal.
You can jump through the roof of the tunnel in 1.1 (hadn't bothered to find out before :P)
You can skip the loop in 1.0 (just did it).

It seems the car is a bit more sturdy in 1.0, and that it doesn't spin out of control as quickly.

As playing 1.1 doesn't seem to offer an unfair advantage to me, would I perhaps be allowed to use 1.1, please (big begging eyes).

[peregy]

i'm for version 1.0

[Sebatianos]

3 and 1/2 hours more to go people!!!
BTW - I'll probably log out before that, so you'll get the resoults tomorrow during the day (after I come home from work).

[Sebatianos]

THE RESOULTS ARE IN!!!

We curently have 5 drivers competing for the STUNT CHAMPIONSHIP of ABANDONIA :king:

1st Track: Start (by Sebatianos)

Doubler: 1:36
SupSuper: 1:43
TheVoid: 1:50
Sebatianos: 1:53
Abi79: 2:48

And the current standings on the season's list are!

Current standings:
Doubler – 5
SupSuper – 3
TheVoid – 1
Sebatianos – 0
Abi79 - 0

The honour of making the next track goes to Doubler - let's see if we can catch up to you this time!

[Doubler]

In all honesty, I wasn't planning on competing on my own track.
But if you insist, allright, I'll do it.

I hope you'll have fun with the next track, as I'm not really a very good trackbuilder. Still, you should be able to achieve some serious speeds on some portions of this track.

The track is newly build, and no time has been set. I won't have any unfair advantage over you.
You can post your results here, or sent them to Dubler@gmail.com

Have fun :ok:

Oh, and when is the deadline, Sebatianos?

[SupSuper]

http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y237/supsuper/load_003.png

IMHO very easy, long curves and long straight tracks. But fun nontheless :)

[Doubler]

Hehe, but let's not forget, SupSuper, that it isn't about who can produce the MOST results; It's about the one who can produce the BEST results.
And with those times, that's not you :angel:
(Allthough the difference is tiny)

You'll need to push the track to the limit, which is not easy, as I've discovered :tai:

[Abi79]

Wow, 1:59 :w00t: My time was 2:58 :cry:

EDIT: 2:23 now :D

[Sebatianos]

Nice track!
Well I suggest the next deadline it Sunday night - midnight (12th of September 24:00 GTM + 1).
I haven't a resoult yet to post, because I was driving around it in Audi Quatro - just for fun :D

[Docu]

got the time 1:58.85 but how do u post the time result picture here, please help....

[Doubler]

I use DosBox to take a screen (CTRL-F5), and then post it on Imageshack (http://www.imageshack.us/).
You can then copy the direct link, use the 'IMG' button, paste the link into the field and post it :ok:

You're going to end up third, then :sneaky:

But you're doing great, both of you. Don't give up! :ok:

[SupSuper]

BOOYAH, finally beat your time! :Brain:

[Sebatianos]

And here's the reason why you shouldn't :drunk: and http://www.abandonia.com/~sebatianos/car-smiley-011.gif

[Doubler]

I just switched to V1.0, like the rest of you.
It took some getting used to, but now I've actually managed to set a better time then with 1.1 :sneaky:

So I'd say: Keep it up, I'm sure you can shave off some more seconds :ok:
(You'll have to... :whistle: )

@Sebatianos: What version are you using now? :blink:
Your replays are acting up for me in 1.0, but are fine in 1.1.

[Sebatianos]

Well because of you I switched to the v1.1 - but I'll probably just keep on playing the original version (this does seem to have some bugs). Did you see the replay for blast? I should have crashed at the loop, but it just went trough! Also in some other one the car keeps on burning in mid air - after it's been throuwn up on the tunel and didn't fall back to the ground...

[Doubler]

I knew about that bug where you go straight through the loop. It's impossible to reproduce, though. You need to hit the loop at the correct angle, with the correct speed to do it.

You all know the bug involving the burning opponent, don't you? If not, I absolutely have to post it here.
And the bug involving the series of ramps?
And the bug involving the border of the map?
I should have ancient replays on them.

[SupSuper]

I tried using v1.0 and it just made my times worse.

Also, the only bug about the border of the map that I know of is that it doesn't make your car stop, it keeps on accelerating and accelerating until it takes off.

[Doubler]

So which version are we going to use now? :blink:
it keeps on accelerating and accelerating until it takes off. That's the one I was talking about.
These bugs I mentioned aren't helpfull, just weird.

[Docu]

http://img388.imageshack.us/img388/5481/time4fa.png

got this time, just wondering Doublers time :whistle: or gotta still do better?! :max:
I think all versions are allowed, but ill stick to abandonia's.

[Sebatianos]

Yes all versions are allowed!

We probably wouldn't even think of the fact that there were different versions, if the replays wouldn't work normaly (that doesn't effect the times thought).

Everybody still has until Sunday (midnight) to try and better the score - thus far DOCU is the fastest!!!

[SupSuper]

*snaps*

I'LL KILL YOU!!! :hairpull:

You guys probably skip stunts and stuff, I don't.

[Tom Henrik]

Yes, we need to agree on whether shortcuts are allowed or not.

For instance, you can easily save a lot of seconds by simply jumping through a loop instead of driving through it.

Anyways...
I decided to dig up Stunts and see if I still got the moves. Great track, Doubler! Really tested my reflexes! :ok:

My first testrun gave me a time of 2.16 I think, and the race is captured on tape below.


As you can see, there were lots of close calls. Need to reawaken my skills more :bleh:

[Doubler]

Well Docu, you've still got some seconds to get rid off, I'm affraid :whistle:
Oh, and I designed this track so it would be next to impossible to skip stunts. If anyone can skip the loop (like I did on the previous thrack) without any reference lines and only a few one-hundred's of seconds to do it, and redo that to get the best of times, I believe he really deserves those two seconds he gains. :blink:
And to be added to every Stunts Hall of Fame emmediatly.

By the way, I believe shortcuts should be allowed. As I said before, finding shortcuts is part of the process of learning a track.
Besides. Things might really get stiff otherwise. Debates of what is to be considered 'skipping' and a lot of totally identical and unoriginal tries. The shortcuts keep the game interesting, and people original, trying different things all the time.

[Sebatianos]

AARGH!
I made that loop shortcut with the Jaguar and now my fastet time is with that car - and I can't seem to beat it (at least not without the loop shortcut and I always crash now)...
BTW - how did you guys manage to go under 2 min???

[Doubler]

By driving very fast.

By the way, Sebatianos. Is that shortcut you're refering to the bug where you manage to go straight through the wrong side of the loop (as in your replay)? As I've resently discovered how to reproduce it at will, and haven't used it yet, as this one is a pretty extreme exploit.

[SupSuper]

Here's my replay if you want (Stunts 1.1 required). And, like Doubler said, by driving very very fast, since I didn't skip anything (not that I'm against taking shortcuts, I just find it pretty impossible on this track).

[Sebatianos]

Nope - it was that jump through the loop you preformed on the last track. I guess I got lucky that one time, because I wasn't even trying to do it. Unfortunately I didn't save the replay.
Why isn't the Jag any faster - I do prefer it's handling the curves to the Porche March everybody eslse is using.

[Doubler]

Nope - it was that jump through the loop you preformed on the last track.That's incredibly difficult on this track. I only got it right once (and crashed my car later on).
When the competition is over, I'll post a replay of how to go through the wrong side of the loop (which is a no-brainer to do), and it can be desided whether it should be allowed.

Why isn't the Jag any faster - I do prefer it's handling the curves to the Porche March everybody eslse is using. The March is the fastest car by far, and it's handling is more then adequate to handle all kinds of tracks - I'm sorry, but I don't think you can make due in the Jaguar.
You should talk to the people who made the game about why they made it so, though :P

[SupSuper]

Just found this page:
http://n.ethz.ch/student/loehrerl/4dinfo.html

Besides some handy tips on Stunts, it shows a lot of info on the differences between the various versions and how things should be worked out for contests.

[Docu]

http://img136.imageshack.us/img136/8676/vittu7qw.png

OK, Doubler I think it's time for you to show your result :ranting: Was drunk while playing this time result! maybe should drink more often when playing stunts! :cheers:

[Doubler]

You're still not there, but you're getting closer Docu :D
You'll get to see my results tommorow :angel:

[Tom Henrik]

I am too rusty in the game. Haven't played it for years.

The fastest I have sofar is 2.04

But, it's extremelly difficult to play as I don't get any sound (in WinXP) and DOSBox can't really handle it too well (it's choppy). So I don't get to hear the whining of the wheels when you do a turn too hard. So I can't really give the car all it got, as I am driving deaf :(

[Doubler]

So I don't get to hear the whining of the wheels when you do a turn too hard. So I can't really give the car all it got, as I am driving deaf* Which version are you playing?
If you haven't already, you should try the Mindscape V1.1; it works perfectly and with sound in XP for me, while with all other versions I get exactly the same as you described.

[Tom Henrik]

I have tried both version 1.0 and version 1.1

[SupSuper]

All versions work fine with me on DOSBox.

And so far my best is 1:56.95

[Docu]

yo Doubler when are u posting the time record??

[Doubler]

*Sighs*
oh, alright. Here they are:

Please. If I can do it, so can you. :)

[Docu]

http://img136.imageshack.us/img136/4403/time9xm.png

this time I went trough the loop from the wrong side, much better results after that!

[Docu]

SupSuper, maybe u should try to beat Doubler's record first :ok:

[Doubler]

So, now I'm going to use that trick too, you know :D

[Docu]

hmm... I taught u allready used it...

[Docu]

let me see your replay if u beat me, want to check your tactic

[Doubler]

This is my replay without using the trick.
I didn't use the trick, because I thought it to be unfair towards the others around here.

I will try to beat your time. You try to beat my time without using the trick :sneaky:

EDIT:Argh... Can't... Get... It... Right. :tai:

[Docu]

did the loop and the car got a bit out of handle, but still no tricks man! :D

[Doubler]

Good one! :kosta:

So, which one counts? I vote the one with trick (wouldn't I?) :bleh:

[SupSuper]

I vote I give up and hit my head against the keyboard.

[Doubler]

If Docu improves his time again, I'll also just going to call it a day. I'm sick of this track, and I don't really want to have to make one again anyway :P

By the way, I'm wondering. Does anybody here have any experience with Stunt tournaments?

[Docu]

yep, I also vote ALL TRICKS are allowed! so at the moment you have the highest score Doubler so... back to stunts!.. :crazy:

[Docu]

Well If it's ok for for you Doubler and everyone else so I could make the next track, what u guys say?? i'm also sick with this track......

[SupSuper]

Eh, fine by me, I'm also sick with this track.

I just wanted to get first place so I could show off my tracks, it's boring if I'm the only one trying to beat them :P

[Doubler]

Let's first finish this part of the competition, shall we?
After that, you can decide who will design the next.

[Docu]

SupSuper, your track look's pretty interesting so wouldnt mind playing it. Still tried to beat your time Doubler but i give up so your the winner i guess :kosta: never heard of that stunt tournament??

[Doubler]

Tournaments are still being held for this game, and I was just wondering if anyone had ever participated in one of them.

Everybody needs a chance to post their results. The tournament will end sunday, 24:00 (GMT+1)

[Docu]

misunderstood it..:wall: Also wondering how many players have joined the tournament??

[SupSuper]

Nope, never participated in a tournament, the only ones I find have already ended. And still can't beat my last time without crashing on a curved bridge.

The only thing I don't like about that track of mine is that it's pretty big so it can get boring, though I have shorter ones.

[Doubler]

Also wondering how many players have joined the tournament?? Six, I believe.

[Aristharus]

I'd join, but it seems I suck in the game nowadays. :)

At first I had trouble of getting it to run probably for some reason. That's why I didn't join even though I said I will. But now that I got it working, I just suck at it. So I probably won't be joining at all. Maybe after a lot of practice.

[Doubler]

Don't worry. It's for fun, and everyone can join. :)
This isn't some 'battle of the titans', or at least it's not supposed to be.

[Aristharus]

I'll join when I can come even close to your times on the tracks. :) I've been driving those tracks though. I didn't post any times 'cause they were too far from any chances to win. :)

[Sebatianos]

Well there are just 2 1/2 hours more and this racing week is officially over (the resoults will be posted tomorrow) and this week's winner get's to post the next racing track - for the competition (if anybody wants to - you can post your favourite tracs just for the fun of it - but please open a new STUNTS thread - so it's less confusing).

[Doubler]

So Sebatianos, you're going to take care of the end results?

[Sebatianos]

Well unless anybody objects... I started this competition (although I'm obviously not among the fastest drivers...).
I thought this could go on as long as people are interested - new track every Tuesday - with time until end of Sunday to race that track... simply idea, that some obviously like - hopefully we'll keep racing a few more weeks :ok:

[Doubler]

Allright with me :ok: . Any regulations to be taken into account? I'd really hate to find out at this late hour that either my version or my driving style aren't allowed :P :unsure:

[Sebatianos]

As I said - if the game allows it, you can do it and it counts. The game penalizes you for cutting shortcuts by skiping a part of the track - so there are some rules set in the game. IF you can find shortcuts that the game dosen't punish you for... the time is on that final score-board and that's the one that counts!

EDIT: Just 1 hour left!

[Sebatianos]

The second week of the Stunts competition is finished and here are the resoults!!!

1st Track: Start (by Sebatianos)

Doubler: 1:36
SupSuper: 1:43
TheVoid: 1:50
Sebatianos: 1:53
Abi79: 2:48

2nd Track: Competition2 (Doubler)

Doubler: 1:47
Docu: 1:48
SupSuper: 1:56
Sebatianos 2:02
Tom Henrik: 2:04
Abi79: 2:23


Current standings:
Doubler – 10
SupSuper – 4
Docu - 3
TheVoid – 1
Sebatianos – 0
Abi79 - 0
Tom Henrik - 0

Once again :kosta: Doubler :kosta: is the winner with quite a lead already, so officially he get's to submit/choose the next track.
What do I mean by that? - Because Doubler created the last track, he can either make the next one (because he's the winner) or he can select who is going to make the next track for him (he can decide to let somebody else to do the dirty work).

[Abi79]

As always I'm the last, but :kosta: doubler :kosta:
*Hopes that the next track will be easier :angel: *

[Sebatianos]

Doesn't matter how fast you are - as long as you're having fun while racing :ok:
I haven't been able to get on the podium either (so no score for me), yet I still keep racing (even if I probably never will get any points) :whistle:

[Doubler]

Just keep it up people :ok:
I'm not that good.
Anyway, as SupSuper really seems to want to post a track so badly: Go for it, SupSuper! :D

That means he gets to post the next track tommorow, right?

[Docu]

I agree also, let him make the track!

[Sebatianos]

Well if you all agree (I've nothing against it) then SupSuper track it is - hopefully he can supply it ASAP - so we can start racing!
Next deadline (unless the track comes in really late) will be Sunday the 18th at midnight (GTM + 1). Now it's time to http://www.abandonia.com/~sebatianos/car-smiley-011.gif

[SupSuper]

Sorry about the delay, here's the track.

[Danny252]

can I behind into the competiton? please?
and if so, what do I do once I get a (decent) result?

[Doubler]

Of course you can behind in :ok:
And just post a screenshot of your times here. It'll help if you keep a replay of your best try too.

EDIT:Weird crash. Just thought it funny to post (Mindscape V1.1 Required)

[Docu]

http://img59.imageshack.us/img59/7222/vittu1gk.png

here are some of my scores, how are u guys doing?? show me some results. it's more fun trying beating someone! :hammer: :bleh:

[Doubler]

Worse. My rimes are terrible.
This track is too long for me :P

EDIT: No wait :blink:
Actually my times are better :huh:

But I'm still terrible on this track :bleh:

[Docu]

ya, me to. crashing mostly of the time! :hairpull: 2 ways to finish the track, dont exactly yet know which route would be faster..

[Doubler]

Take the turn. No doubt about that. Not for me, at least.

When I go for the best time, about 95% of the time I end up in a fireball (seriously), and another 3% of my tries I restart.
On this track, I've only finished once so far.

[SupSuper]

Yes, my track is a devious one :twisted:

I've only been able to finish it once, with 3:54 :P

[Sebatianos]

My only time that I finished - it took me 6 minutes and 48 seconds (took the longer road) :wall:

Hmm That would still put me in the third place (I guess) - the third person to submit a resoult (even if so bad) :bleh:

Don't forget - YOU HAVE UNTIL SUNDAY!!!

[Doubler]

I'm still at 3:15
I'm curious what Docu's time is at the moment...

[Abi79]

I need to track this topic. I didn't even knew that SupSuper made the track :D Let's see if I can beat you :evil:

[Docu]

still got the same score!, havent had time to play stunts much.....

[Doubler]

Haven't really had the time to improve my time (weird sentence :blink: ), but here's my entry:
http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/264/load0093uw.png
Could we please stick to shorter tracks in the future :P

[Sebatianos]

Well - there are still 3 more hours - and this weeks competition is over!

[Docu]

http://img246.imageshack.us/img246/8230/vittu0ei.png

have u tried zak's page those people are driving like crazy and getting almost the same results then Indy, with excample corvette or some other worse car! :blink:
just too used too used to drive with Indy so need a bit of practicing driving the other crappy cars!

[Sebatianos]

:blink: :blink: :blink:
If anyone can explain this - please do!
I took the Lamborgini - for fun - and just as I reached the second loop (the left to right loop) I crashed, but I got the winning resoult! When I wanted to go to the replay (I really wanted to save it and see how I could have won) the game crashed!
When I restarted it, the resoult was still there :eeeeeh: :eeeeeh: :eeeeeh:

[Doubler]

Explanation: Pure luck
(Or cheating :sneaky: )
:P

[punch999]

Do I sence a hex editor

[Sebatianos]

guys - I don't get this - And to make things clear:
I'm not submiting this time (2:14:70) as a valid time for the competition. I CRASHED during the loop. I didn't even finish!
The best time I got was 3:13:70 and that's my official time (that would currently put me in the second place).
I posted this because I have no idea how something like this could happen. I mean - even if I would finish with the Lamborgini I'm sure it would take me way over 7 minutes - the car simply hasn't the speed to be competitive!

[Doubler]

Don't worry Sebatianos, I don't mind either way :P
I'm not entirely sure about Docu, though ;)

[Docu]

dont mind either. at least you ar honest and told the truth!

[Abi79]

I don't think I'll compete here anymore. This game just isn't for me 'cause it's with cars. Have fun and don't forget that <insert my sig here>
:cheers:

[Sebatianos]

New week - new resoults:

1st Track: Start (by Sebatianos)

Doubler: 1:36

Docu: 3:11
Sebatianos: 3:13
Doubler: 3:15
SupSuper: 3:45

[Abi79]

You know, I'll start playing again. Anyway I stopped because I forgot about this topic and about the game... :whistle: Don't ask.... Now let's track this topic...at last.

[Doubler]

Hehe... First time I ever used that menu :D
I do hope the next track'll be a bit shorter, Docu is getting awfully close :ph34r:
:bleh:

[Docu]

just hold on guys. I have made the track but as soon as i get home ill post it :ok:

[Abi79]

OK. I can't wait to try another crazy track. (talking of crazy, gotta go back to C++; I'm trying to make a software which will help me for the maths homework (Danny's ideea))

[Docu]

cannot get home today, my friend was supposed to drop me but he is drunk.. had to make the track here again, its not actually the same then the original but close, so hope u like it :cheers:

[Doubler]

Hmmm. Tropical background...
Somewhere in the mists of time during a transfer from one data storage device to another, my version of Stunts lost the tropical backdrop file, and I've never retrieved it (it gives character to my game :) ).
Guess I'll just have to edit the background on this track.

[Abi79]

I would post my time here, but I can't because I have yet to finish the track. Good job, Docu :ok:

[SupSuper]

2:52:75 on my test run (really slow and crappy, just to get used to the track).

[Doubler]

2:27.45 on my testrun. Slow and crappy, like a testrun should be, but I did have a bit of luck along the way :P

[SupSuper]

Wow... just, wow :blink:
I was calmly driving around the track, and after a jump my car just takes off, straight up, and then comes back straight down, just like that.

Here's the replay, it's Stunts 1.1, but it's worth it. Just watch from 1:10.00, and it's just downright weird :blink:

edit: here's a small GIF i managed to make of the bug in action: http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y237/supsuper/clip0005.gif

[Doubler]

That's a pretty well known bug, involving high speed, jumps and edges, but fun nonetheless :ok:
You can never take a series of ramps at too (Mark 'too') high a speed, something will always go wrong :P

[Docu]

1:13:15 :sneaky: if somebody hasnt noticed and want to get more faster score so I recommend to skip all the corkscrew's :ok:

[Sebatianos]

Well I still couldn't get a time lower then 2:32 (but haven't really tried that hard...). Still got today and the weekend to go!

[Abi79]

The weekend ? OK. I'll start trying to actually finish the track tommorow. I'm still trying to learn it. Great track :ok:

[Doubler]

1:13:15:blink:
I'm currently at 1:54.20, and I really can't see how to shave off another 40 seconds without skipping the second part of the track at least!
Did you find a way to get through that narrow without getting a penalty for it, or something?
If so, could you share a replay or something? I'm very curious to how you managed that :kosta:

[Docu]

sorry, the time was 2:13 not 1!!!! :wall: pretty good time you got there Doubler

[Doubler]

Pfew.
For a second there I thought I was getting rusty :(

:P

Anyway, thanks, but it's certainly not the fastest time possible. I had about every obscure bug working against me, and I made a fair share of mistakes. I'll try to improve it, but I suspect it'll be time for me to take a little brake from the game after this track LOL (the trembling hands may be an indication :P ).

[SupSuper]

Phew, I was also scared when I saw that time at first :blink:

Here's mine, I'll try to improve it. And corkscrews are far too easy to skip :P

[Doubler]

There are a lot more things skippable then just corkscrews, but two of them aren't all that easy :ok:

[Docu]

1:53:60 :Brain: Am I on lead Doubler or did you manage to still get more better time?

[Doubler]

No, you're winning this one. I quit after I set that last time, and I won't be participating for a while, I'm affraid.

[Sebatianos]

Well - I'm off now, but here are the times I menaged to pull off this weekend (wasn't really at home on Saturday so no times then - could have done with a few more tries...).

[Sebatianos]

New week - new resoults:

As the winner of this weeks competition DOCU gets to submit the track (or select somebody's track) AGAIN.

Well - it's getting really close - but I'm afraid the challenge has become less interesting somehow... - we'll see!

[Docu]

Well I'll pass the fifth track to someone else. Doubler isn't playing at the moment and you came third Sebatianos, so u could make the track this time? :ok:

[Sebatianos]

OK - I've made a track thats quite simple and hopefully you'll find fun to drive (not many traps and very fast).

[Sebatianos]

Sorry for the double post, but here are my first resoults (I'm quite satisfied with this time already - but will try to improve).

http://www.abandonia.com/~sebatianos/load_000.png

BTW - here's also a replay of what happens if you're too fast!

[Abi79]

This is my time. :D Not the best but I'll improve it :D

EDIT: I forgot to make a screenshot when I finished the track, but I made one after starting and crashing. That's why you'll see there impact speed.

Yes, sure is a nice change from all the other nerve-breaking tracks :)

[Docu]

good time SupSuper :ok: I have only managed to get 1:43
!

[Sebatianos]

Great times guys! I'm glad you like the track (I wanted it to be fun :angel: ).
BTW - my best time thus far remains the same - I haven't had the time to improve it yet.

[Abi79]

Neither had I, but there's still today afternoon and tommorow :Brain:

As the winner of this weeks competition I invite the new competitor Hermann to create and submit the new track! :ok:

[Hermann]

Now here's a little something for you. This is not a highspeed track (though it has a few places where you can get to the "6th gear"), it's short, and is quite easy. But it has a lot of things that takes practice to do perfect, so I find this a quite good track to compete in.

Oh... and one little thing: A part of the track is built on water :whistle: (and the green stuff you see on the large curves in the water is NOT grass... call it swamp or whatever, you WILL sink if you take a shurtcut!)
If you've got the skills, you can really cut off some seconds on this watersection.

Have fun!

I meant to call the track abandonia, but there wasn't enough grass (download track for explenation)

edit: Please provide replays... I'd love to see how you do (+ it prevents cheating :P) :)

[SupSuper]

Where is everyone? :blink:

[Sebatianos]

Right behind you I'd say!

[Bobbin Threadbare]

I might have a go at this...

[Docu]

Sure Hermann :ok: There are no rules! so u can skip loops, find the fastest way or do any crazy stuff to get to the end. Right Sebatianos?

[Sebatianos]

Sure thing. You can do anything - except to change the track! As long as you can improve the time on the track given (and the computer doesn't penalise you - like if you just take a small circle and go strait to the finish) it counts.

[Docu]

driving with manual u get more faster times if u havent still used it. excample just before jump put the gear on fifth (before going up the hill)and your car takes off like a rocket! :smoke: and going trough loop your angle has to be correct, then shift the gear on fourth almost the same time as u r going to crash and youll just go trough it (the speed has to be correct). Doesn't always work then.. manual driving is easy :ok:

[Hermann]

Ye, I know. The jumps were made specifically for manual gears ;)
Though I did take the loop and did brake before the last jump in order to get into the tunnel.

[Docu]

I guess Im the winner of this track so ill post the next one.
CHECK out this guys replay, his driving is absolutely crazy and my times are S..T compared to him.. he earns this :kosta:


The new Track is attached also here!

[Sebatianos]

Sorry guys, I'm somewhat ill, so I didn't pay enough attention to this thread... I'll go through the resoults and post the current standings... But yes, Docu, it's your turn again - so we're racing your track again (unless you wish somebody else to do it).

[Docu]

no no, well race this one B)

After a few races he missed Doubler lost his leading possition in the overall standings!
Seems like we only have 4 active drives at the moment (although I'm hopeing for Bobbin to join in).

The new track has already been submited by DOCU - and there are still 5 days left to race it (and SupSuper already set a time for all of us to beat).

[Docu]

2:05..

[Sebatianos]

Just an hour left to go!

[Mingva]

Abandonia contest is over, so why don't to join to a professional on-line Stunts competition at ZakStunts (http://stunts.mine.nu/zakstunts/)?

[Javaguy]

whaa? whys it over? :angry:
I was going to enter...

It's not over, just... dead. Nobody but me posted times for the last track.
Feel free to join if you want to.

[Sebatianos]

Well, it seems people got interested again, so I guess we should reope it.

It's not dead, we just had a late autmn brake, now we're ready for the winter part of the season :D

[Ignite]

I got a full bucket of interest, and a empty bucket of talent. Where do i sign up?

[Sebatianos]

You just did.

OK, here's the next track (something wintery)...

[Javaguy]

woo!
I can use any car?
my time will be bad I promise you LOL

[Doubler]

@Javaguy: I suggest you use the Indy. Unless you're a lot better then you're letting us on to, that's the car you really need to get the hang of :)

Oh, and did I mention I might just participate again, by the way?

[Javaguy]

woo, like the llama :)
yeah, I usually use the indy. And no Im not better than im letting on.
come on folks, lets all do this competition :cheers:

[Ignite]

Slippery road eh? How am i supposed to get my time under 3:30?

[Sebatianos]

Well, the times shouldn't be too difficoult (but there are two roads you can take).

Once you have a time you're happy with, post it (and possibly a screenshot of the time). You have time until midnight (this Sunday).

[Javaguy]

argh, best I can do is 3:25.
all I have done so far is proved how bad I am at this :(
found the other way.. improving but Im still rubbish

[Doubler]

I'm currently at 1:49
I hate the icy tracks :P
But it's good to see something other then an artificially challenged one :)

[Javaguy]

1:49!!! :cry: DAMN youre good... compared to me

[Sebatianos]

Well Doubler is among the best (he was no. 1 for a long time in this competition - but is currently no. 2).

Don't worry I suck too, but still play (and some guys were even afraid to give their scores bacause they thought they weren't good enough.

BTW - Which Car are you using? With Indi it should be easy to make a time well under 2:20

[Javaguy]

i can get under 2:20 with the indy. im at 2:07 or something.... not sure though
edit 2:07:05 but I cant beat it..
maybe the game should be somehow re-organsied because it could be just the same people winning and submitting tracks over.. and over
i probably sound like I cant take losing LOL
still, im still tryin'
this game was released BEFORE I WAS BORN!

edit: down to 2:00:70 now
my times go something like
2:00:90
2:00:80
ect

[Ignite]

Im gonna try to make it under 4:00 today :P

[Sebatianos]

Well maybe the replay will help you out a bit (although this was a very bad run I had).

[Doubler]

Oooo. A free insight into other people's driving techniques. :D

[Sebatianos]

Not really - that's why I chose my first run with the Indy... I totaly sucked in this run (the time was 2:21).

The real time is better then this one :whistle:
But then again - you know I prefer the Jag :Titan:

[SupSuper]

1:59.70

I hate completely ice tracks, it's like driving in slow-motion :yawn:

[Ignite]

... While balancing a fragile thing :cry:

[SupSuper]

Well there isn't anything to hit on this track. And don't forget that the right route is the right one ;)

[Ignite]

Your choice :whistle:

[Javaguy]

little tip I expect you all know.. you can drive through the wall on the first slope so you can get on to the right road more quickly.
im not going to win, so its no skin of my nose :D

[kleine777]

my best time is about 2:20 btw i cant get the reply to work
how do you guys do under 2:00
which track to use the right one?
and when i get to the end of the track again there are two chices which one to choose? i choose the left one.

[Sebatianos]

Well if you go right (at the begining - after going up hill) you'll be on the shorter road. At the end you have no choice anymore. That's where the two road come back together. If you go right you'll just got he wrong way :whistle:

Now usually we don't give so many tips out (it's not so hard to figure out anyway), but we have some new entries. The rules are simple - you have until midnight on Sunday (GTM+1) to submit the times for. The winner gets to post a track for the next week. The score will start from the begining (it's the begining of the next season - it's been a long pause anyway).

You can drive any car and do anything you like (except change the track with the track editor). Have fun and drive safely (at least in reality). :ok:

[Doubler]

how do you guys do under 2:00By driving very fast :P
Really, on other tracks there's loads of tricks attached, but there are few of them here. Or at least few you can manage in a weeks' time ;)

And going right really is shorter, not to mention faster. Believe us :)

[Ignite]

I hate ice :)

[SupSuper]

My trick on icy curves is to just skip them and go through the grass. It's slower but not as slippery so it compensates :P
In fact, I skip a lot of stuff. You just gotta be wary of just how much the game allows you to skip.

[Javaguy]

mm
well Im gonna wait for the next track, see how well I can do with that.
im still trying to beat 2.00:07 but its hard

[kleine777]

om i didnt skip stuff untill now thanks :ok:

How about taking the screens with DosBox? :)

[kleine777]

it still wont work. on what button to pres tried ctrl c and the prt button

[Doubler]

Run the game in DosBox and press CTRL-F5 to have DosBox create a screenshot which is then placed in the 'capture' folder in your DosBox directory.

[Ignite]

My copy of Stunts doenst work with DosBox...

[Doubler]

That's frustrating.
Of course you can still save your replay and post that :)
