General Chat - ZSC / Re: Statistics!
Last post by Duplode - Today at 12:28:56 AMQuote from: alanrotoi on Yesterday at 07:23:44 PMI wonder if top 4 stats would be much different from top 3. I think that usually there aren't 4 different contenders for the title per year.
That's an interesting angle! Let's expand the stats to top-4 and top-6, then:
Going from podium to top-4 we typically see one to three extra pipsqueaks. The exceptions are 2002, 2019 and 2024 (zero) and 2003 (four).

Last post by alanrotoi - Yesterday at 07:23:44 PMGreat stats! So it also worth the rule change from 2019. Well done!

General Chat - ZSC / Re: Statistics!
Last post by Duplode - Yesterday at 03:46:56 PMRaces by pattern of cars on the podium (AAA = single-car podium, ABB = winner differs from the other two, etc.) and by number of cars in the top-6, from ZCT080 to ZCT286:
It is worth noting the 2019 change to the bonus rules has led to a marked shift in these stats. Before that, the coefficients were further apart from each other, as bonus points were exchanged much faster, which meant multi-car races were quite rare for most of the 2010s. (For instance, there's a run of single-car podiums from ZCT162 to ZCT187 -- that's 26 races, more than two full seasons!) Below are the same stats, but for 2019 and on only (so starting from ZCT210):
| Podium | Races | % (over 207 races) |
| AAA | 144 | 69.6% |
| ABB | 31 | 15.0% |
| AAB | 19 | 9.2% |
| ABA | 10 | 4.8% |
| ABC | 3 | 1.4% |
| Cars in top-6 | Races | % (over 207 races) |
| 1 | 102 | 49.3% |
| 2 | 88 | 42.5% |
| 3 | 14 | 6.8% |
| 4 | 3 | 1.4% |
| 5 | 0 | 0.0% |
| 6 | 0 | 0.0% |

Competition 2025 / Re: Cars and rules for 2025
Last post by Duplode - June 15, 2025, 01:44:03 AMQuote from: HerrNove on June 14, 2025, 07:52:59 PMI can see nowhere in the rules that a team's score is only determined by its best two drivers. Am I missing something?
Indeed! It looks like that information used to be in the seasonal scores section of the rules, was removed for the 2008 season (which exceptionally didn't feature a team competition) but never restored, even though the scoring remained unchanged all along. I have added it back, thanks!
Quote from: HerrNove on June 14, 2025, 07:52:59 PMBtw congrats for your lap, you managed to calm down the competitors for a whole day
I'm surprised, too -- an entire day, imagine that

Competition 2025 / Re: Cars and rules for 2025
Last post by Duplode - June 14, 2025, 05:38:16 PMA clarification update to the rules page: the section on car coefficients now explicitly lists all possible deductions from the bonuses of podium cars. The rules have not changed; the extra information just documents fully how the bonus redistribution has worked since 2019.

Last post by Matei - June 10, 2025, 12:31:54 PMI found some cars in TORCS with Free Art License:
You cannot view this attachment. You cannot view this attachment.
The screenshots are made with SDL_grf-2.0.0 with a 3D model which is in the archive but I didn't include in the game (yet). To use a car model I need it in text mode, with all the vertices and triangles specified. Models "optimized" to be rendered by Stunts probably means with fewer vertices, which would be useful for my game, if of course they really are free (i.e. you yourself made them 100%).
