Who says anyone running the F12000 gives a f***?
Yeah, they won't. It's the second coming of the F9000, they don't care.
Regarding time and the F12000, I (with your help, of course, if you want to do so) also need to figure out all the tracks that'll be part of it, I already have 3 so far: Altima VIII (Canada), Omega Harbour (Australia) and Sidewinder (Japan). I think that Jonny and Snake wanted to have home courses for their teams (as Angelus' is Omega Harbour), so that'll bump it up to 5
Fire star, but not until near the end. Also, Sol 2 is cool. Maybe I'll make some of my own, but those are my suggestions for now.
Ehh, I was thinking of new tracks. Yeah, Altima VII(7) was used before, but the one in the F12000 is VIII(8), which will be a remade version, using only some parts of the original VII
I'll test my paint.net skills and see if I can make a Sol 3. I didn't even see that extra I...
Paint.NET, interesting. I use GIMP.
Most of the stuff you can do in phone shop can be done on paint.net. never tried GIMP.
GIMP is pretty much a free, linux version of Photoshop that's also available for Windows and Mac.
Maybe I'll try it out. I don't know how to do some of the stuff that I've seen on your images on paint.net or photoshop.
Like what, the glowy effects?
For an example, yes, the glowy effects.
Yeah, I only know how to do that in GIMP, as it's a script in the program. You input a couple of variables and the script goes and makes the effect for you.
...I don't like scripts...maybe I'll just stick to paint.net.
You think maybe if we stay off topic long enough Hellfire_WZ will show up?
Well, since I made the thread, let me beat him by saying "HEY. CUT THAT SH*T OUT!... okay bye teehee~!"
I got exited, so it's a bit rushed. In case you're confused on how "4" works, it looks a bit like this. There is a drop/jump before "4", but the rest of the gaps in the road represent under-cresses.

Dude, I f*cking LOVE Turbo Racing! Spent a good chunk of my childhood playing that game! Also, you'd be glad to know that a song from that game will be in FTA.
However, the course needs to be split up like Fusion's tracks, with a Short, Medium and Long course, like my F12000 revision of Omega Harbour. Otherwise, that's pretty good!
I made it better but also kinda made it worse. Hopefully you can see everything ok
Green=Short
Red=Medium
Black=Long

Nice job! Wait...
OH YOU HORRIBLE HUMAN BEING! You're doing a Chenghou Project! NOOOO!Quote:
3: 20 degree incline towards outside
(It's okay, I'm fine with it, but Chenghou's outward banked corner is a bitch)
That's actually my favourite part of the course. I wanted to add an element of having to fight gravity on some of the track, hence the 90 degree banked corners. I don't know if you've played trackmania, but the 90 degree turns in that game really seem like you're being pushed down. You basically have to stave up it, and it's awesome. That game alone inspired me to put it in this track.
Trackmania's awesome, but you do realise that Mag-Strips are a thing. Also, what happens if you fail to navigate that corner properly? Do you just fall to your death?
The track is designed so that the mag strips will only give you some assistance. If you fall, there'll probably be a rescue drone, like in wipeout, but you'll be eliminated. The course us supposed to exploit it's height to create an element of fear. I was going to add a big ramp, too, but I forgot. It's a bit cliche, anyway (still cool, though).
So if you fall off, it'll be like a forced retirement. Ok, sounds alright.
EDIT:
Now you've made me want to try to make Sol 3 in Trackmania. Which ones do you play/have?
Oh, but I don't think that angled loop thing is a thing in the game, oh well. I'm still gonna try it. and Omega Harbour... maybe.
Trackmania Island has a way to pretend to do it using an upper corner of a dome.
Yeah, I guess.
I guess no-one has had time to write a part. Allow me to change that:

15. TUR847.1.13.329 (#13 | Leon Turner | S1.2)
16. SCA308.0.7.329 (#7 | Lucia Scarlatti | S1.1)
"Wait, what?! Why are you at Stage 1.2?" Lucia exclaimed. "I call hacks."
"Hah!" Leon snorted "I don't hack to win... I use my wealth."
"You mean...?"
"Yes, I personally paid for an upgrade for my craft. My simulator craft was changed to match it."
"Right. At least you won't be left in my dust."
The craft took off at incredible rates, and as soon as it started, Leon went for the weapons, aiming to eliminate his opponents. Lucia, however, aimed straight for first place, and had passed Leon halfway through the first lap.
<<CONTENDER ELIMINATED>>
Leon had eliminated the first opponent of 15. As he entered the outward banked corner, he took a small shortcut, using the bank, he flew over the inside and landed on the other end. The ship then went in the air after the corner, barrel rolled, and got a speed boost after landing. Ahead was Lucia. He aimed carefully and fired some rockets. However, she used the 90° banked turn to her advantage, neatly avoiding them.
------------
<15:49:03_>
<sol 3: medium fwd_>
<race: lap 78 of 79_>
<<CONTENDER ELIMINATED>>
The 14th opponent was eliminated by Leon, there was only one left: Lucia, who had been running a perfect race. She dodged every craft, wall and weapon fired at her.
"Hmph, I don't need to be behind you to eliminate you" Leon taunted.
"Why eliminate me at all?" Lucia replied, "You're ahead, just win... or more, try."
She fired missiles at him, which was a direct hit, slowing him down. She rushed past him, with just a lap to go...
"PLASMA."
BOOM.
A direct hit caused the low shield warning to start beeping on Lucia's ship, which was only accentuated by Leon forcefully ramming his craft into hers, causing more damage from the ramming and from slamming into the wall. She was now behind Leon, but could still win despite the shields. After absorbing a few weapons, she picked up a Turbo, keeping it for the final moment...
She fired it on an uneven part of the track, flying high enough to perform a barrel roll, passing Leon at over 1000km/h.

1st Place: #07 - Lucia Scarlatti
2nd Place: #13 - Leon Turner
"Ugh, crap." Leon uttered.
Before Lucia could gloat, the room was filled with a deep angry voice.
"Lucia Scarlatti, please meet me in the Sektor 5 training room. IMMEDIATELY."
This place feels kinda empty. I feel lonely here, being the only one posting for nearly a week. :(
*Still waiting for something epic, too*
XD
I suddenly got hit with OMG I'M SO SICK I'M GONNA DIE right when I though I was done procrastinating.
Who'll be first in back to writing? XD

Curses xP

"Lucia Scarlatti, please meet me in the Sektor 5 training room. IMMEDIATELY."
"Hmph, I thought as much." Leon said.
"What do you mean?" Lucia asked.
"You'll see."
When she got to the training room, she saw Viktor preparing the main simulator.
"You have failed, Scarlatti." He said. "Racing style means everything to Crinale. If you do it wrong, you won't prove that you can be successful in the F12000, no matter how 'perfect' it is."
Lucia could do nothing but stand in silence, shocked. Hearing no objections, Viktor continued.
"Your racing style will be moulded to our design. Violence is the ultimate key. Be as violent as possible. Take Leon, for example. He eliminated 14 AI craft in one race. You attempted to eliminate 0. Now, I have prepared this simulator. You will train to be a true Crinale pilot. In this one 50 lap race, you will eliminate every single AI craft. GO!"
He booted up the race as soon as she was seated, quite very angry that someone dare attempt a racing style other than the one he wanted for Crinale.
------------
17:01:12
"So, did he criticize your lack of violence?" Leon said, leaning on the door to Lucia's room, obviously knowing the answer.
"Not. My. Fault." She snapped back. "Now get out of my way."
Leon pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose. "Hmph, if only you'd channel that anger into the simulator, into eliminating the other craft." He said as he pushed off the door and walked back to his room. Just before entering it, he looked back at the enraged Lucia and spoke. "This is Crinale, you can't just do what you want."

One question, Jonny, what day was Part 58 set?
Still 20th May 2210
Ah, ok. Thanks! :D
I was going to physically write this part out on some paper, but I f**ked it up so many times I just really couldn't be bothered in the end. So yeah, blame my shitty writing not-skills for that. I really wanted to do it, too, but I just feel discouraged now since I wasted so many pages of paper screwing it up every single time. AAARGGHH! :mad:
Whatever. I really couldn't care less at the moment. I suck, and it's not happening. Enjoy the lame-ass digital version, no awesome atmosphere for you. :(

"It's happening again.
"After the aftermath of publicizing Overtel's corrupt and illegal practices in October of 2170, I thought that the whole corrupt ordeal was over. Yes, there was fallout from the biggest entertainment source suddenly ending, but we made it in the end. We took over the AGRC and ensured that corruption would not rear its ugly head again...
"Oh, how wrong we were.
"In hindsight, I should have noticed earlier that something was horribly wrong. Most of the original AGRC members, the ones part of the "Purity Coalition", had disappeared. Of course, it didn't happen all at once. It was gradual, as if it was carefully planned out, to get rid of us over time, slowly replacing it with corruption.
"Now, we have reached the next level: the initiation of the F12000 League. The first race at Altima VIII was chaotic. I've seen this level of chaos before, in the F9000. The FX300 up to and including the FX400 never once was this chaotic, not even when Crinale participated. It is because of this that I believe the F12000 is run by corruption, similar to the F9000.
"Naturally, even when Overtel was no more, I kept doing what I used to do, this time focusing on different organizations, keeping my eye on them and their actions. One particular organization, running behind a front company, is beginning to compete in the F12000, and has communicated with some other teams and certain Persons-of-Interest. Something that is interesting to note is that a certain document basically reveals that Overtel themselves had placed a bounty on the individual that is now the leader of this organization. However, I have a sneaking suspicion that, while a threat, they are not the true puppetmasters behind the F12000.
"For some reason, I was able to locate the main headquarters of [REDACTED]*, but unable to do the same for Crinale's. It is for this reason that I shall look into a rumour that has been running around since mid-2210. I shall also look into Chris Scarbrough, as it was he who conceptualized the F12000 in the first place.
"I fear how long this corruption will go on, as, inevitably, it will stronger over time. A world of corruption is a world we do not need.
-Veritas"
* That part was supposed to have the actual organization name written out, then covered up with a black marker or something.
If someone actually wants to write it out, go right ahead, I bet you could do a better job than me and not f**k it up. [sigh], damn it. FML. :'(
