OverdrijfThat's not a "could have been" in my case. Anyway, I was actually coming here to say this is for now the last race I should be missing, pinkie promise. I just handed the last stuff of what made me extra busy in, but now there's a few social obligations (and other fun and also some less fun stuff) that have been piling up behind the workload. But certainly next race. Too bad, this looked like a fun track to have a decent go at.

DuplodeOkay, let's reveal the quiet replays!
-
DuplodeResults confirmed! Congratulations to @AlanRotoi, @CTG, and to @Frieshansen -- personal best result! The new track will be available in the morning, GMT-3.
-
KyLiECongratulations to @Alan, @Duplode and @CTG! Also, well done @Frieshansen!
-
Alan RotoiThank you! Also congrats @Duplode and @CTG. @Frieshansen is improving a lot, 4th place. These days seems a perfect time for a new zakstunts race winner. Think about the last few races and how a little improvement you could make to your replays to reach the podium.
-
FrieshansenThanks for the many mentions and also congratulations to the winners!
-
DuplodeUpdate complete! ZCT251 - Rainy Day, by Cas, is now available. Enjoy!

dreadnautI think I don't like the broken bridge, which makes it impossible to drive across the valley. This track would count as "broken" for me.
-
dreadnautStill, fun truck and intersting tricks. Just not friendly.1:11.42
-
DuplodeWhen I inspected the track, I felt the valley crossing to be discoverable enough to be acceptable. I think I'd rather err on the side of trusting the designer in cases like this.1:08.53
-
CasIt's not easy to be original every single time... and it always has it's costs! I very much would like a track piece that were like a bridge without borders that could run on top of a highway. I remember I used to consider illusion tracks "broken". I also kind of disliked roads on water. But Stunts is sometimes a little limited and exploiting these things gives us some extra space to work on. Just my personal feeling about it. Glad that it's fun racing, though. It's the most important part!

Alan RotoiHey guys there is a new article, an interview to @RenatoBiker and a collection of his best races! http://zak.stunts.hu/articles/renato-biker-a-titan-among-racers
-
dreadnautThank you @Alan, it's a great read, and it says "this week"! Is it going to be a series?
Jun 16
-
KyLiE@Alan, indeed, it is a great read!
-
Alan RotoiThanks! It was a pretty good interview and a good chat time. I felt like talking with an old friend but we really never shared the same stunts era or chats. He is a kind person and now I would like to know more about him. Also, I would like to interview more racers. There is a lot to say and read.

-
OverdrijfI could send you the files over some 3rd party file sending system, no problem in itself, but we use the forum to exchange files during the live event as well, so it's probably a lot easier if you just register an account there.
-
dreadnautStan's account has been approved, see you on the Forum!
-
OverdrijfAh, it was the manual anti-spambot check. That makes sense.

Midsummer / Midwinter 2022
Welcome everyone to the mid-season summary for 2022! Hope I find you well, in these not-so-easy times. Remember fuel is free in the land of Stunts, it’s the best place to go for a drive!
The sixth race of the year is nearing the end, so it’s a good time to look at the standings and see where we are. Starting at the top we have Alan Rotoi defending his 2021 title. With four victories out of five completed races, plus 7 bonus points, he's already looking at a 10+ point lead on CTG and Duplode. Will they keep it up? Because KyLiE is not far behind, leading a group of followers: the rest of the Doubleplusspeed and Looping Warrior teams, and solo racers Zapper and Heretic.
In the middle there is also Frieshansen, who holds a strong lead on the Amateur scoreboard, and who has been lining up strong results in every race! He only joined last autumn, but he’s putting a lot of effort in, and the results are glowing! Behind him Heretic, Cas and afullo are all fighting within 10 points, so everything is still open.
While Alan and Frieshansen top the respective leagues, they are also both part of the same team, Doubleplusspeed. New entry this year, this group is clearly aiming at the team championship, and halfway-in still rocks 100% participation!
What’s next?
We have ten days left on ZCT251, and then the first half of the season will be over. After that we have six more races to go, with tons of points still to distribute. Quite a lot can change!
Let's not focus only on ZakStunts though: there’s an impressive number of other events going on this year, which you should check out if you’d like to race with different rules and cars:
- Race for Kicks of course, with a new track starting at the beginning of every month.
- CCC, the Custom Car Championship, offers a completely new format where every race comes with a different set of hand-picked cars. Many are recent creations, and have never been used before in a competition!
- Live endurance races are going strong this year, with the next event coming up in less than two weeks, on the 3rd of July—don’t miss it.

HunterBoy344Is there any way to programmatically parse a replay file? I’m working on a site that basically acts as pseudo-multiplayer for Stunts, but I need the server to get the time, author, and car used from any replay file to do so. Any help would be appreciated!
-
dreadnautYou can find all the details on the wiki: Stunts Wiki: Replay_file_format — And a PHP implementation here: https://github.com/dreadnaut/phpStunts/blob/master/src/ReplayLoader.php

dreadnautKeep us up to date on your work, you can open a thread in the forum: Stunts Related Programs
