Drivers join the voice chat for the drivers meeting!

Sign ups close tonight at 7 pm est! Remember to join the Sim Monster general voice chat at 6:50 pm est for a quick drivers meeting!

Hey guys, myself and a few other members are going to host a fun run on Wednesday May 5th at 7 pm est! We'll be doing an event on Orlando 2021. We will do qualifying, racing and freestyle. Qualifying will last from 7 pm est - 8 pm est with the main event starting soon after. We will be treating this as if we're doing a league, so please do be realistic with your runs. You may use a replica, or a custom as long as you made it or if you've been given permission to use the custom truck. If you choose a replica or a repli-custom, then it must be a truck that is on the Sim Monsters website (If you're using your own custom, then it does not need to be uploaded to Sim Monsters, just know that all members must have access to the trucks). The Top 16 qualifiers will make it into the event. We will be using the latest version of Rigs of Rods, 2021.04, so make sure you have that version downloaded. We are using V4 settings for this fun run. If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask me here or message me on Discord @ABgamerX (Adam B )✓ᵛᵉʳᶦᶠᶦᵉᵈ#4455. Please join the Sim Monsters voice chat at 6:50 pm est for a quick drivers meeting where I will go over a few more extra details (You can leave the voice chat for qualifying, but you MUST be in the voice chat for the main event). Qualifying: 1 person will be called in at a time (first come 1st serve). I will ask the driver to ready up. Reply with ready, say you're ready in the voice chat, or wiggle your tires to show that you are ready. Then I will say go at a random time in the ROR chat. WAIT until I say ready up before saying ready. You get 1 pass in the lane of your choice (no reruns). Racing: I will ask both drivers to ready up. Then a go will be given at a random time in the ROR chat. Lane choice in Round 1 will be based on your qualifying times. Lane Choice for Round 2 onwards will be based on your time from your most recent pass. NO neutral bombing. You will be given a 5 second penalty if both front tires do not hit the racing ramps. 90 degree turn rule: If your truck surpasses 90 degrees upon entering a turn, you will be given a 5 second penalty. Freestyle: You have 2 minutes to impress the 3 judges. BE REALISTIC. If it hasn't been done in real life, chances are it is unrealistic. If a move is deemed too unrealistic then it won't be counted towards your score and might lead to a possible RII. You will be RII'd for hard cage hits, hitting the wall, if your truck is on its lid, and other huge crashes. There will be an overall event champion as well, so make sure you aim high in these competitions to earn as many points as possible (Like I said, we're going to run this as serious as a league). Remember most importantly to have fun!

Wow, 5 months and 1 SYP later, I found time and motivation to finish up my Custom Syracuse track. For those who don't remember, I decided to make a custom track that had a concrete floor and only vehicles as obstacles, kind of like events such as Vancouver 2008 for instance. I really like how it turned out, and this was also a good learning experience when it came to learning how Blender 2.79b works. I hope to have this track released soon!

I have a tutorial on how to swap tires correctly:

Well it's a private truck pack that was never released on Sim Monsters, so most people on the site don't have it

The Rigs of Rods community is heavily against ripping content from other games, so if someone rips content from Masters of Metal for instance, it will not be allowed to be posted onto Sim Monsters. However, I believe someone is working on making one of the Masters of Metal tracks from scratch, but I think it's still a very early WIP. Also, you have to follow this format when making a request:

I would lower the lip of the ramp on the double by the single car, other than that, pretty good

You don't sign up in the help and support section, you have to go to the league's sign up page and make sure you sign up using the correct format
