Happy 2017!

[[TC]»Pete«]

2016 was a milestone year for the team as we celebrated our 10th birthday back in June. Two weeks into 2016 we saw the introduction of Corby (Rockingham) to the collection of CityDriving maps. Summer played host to our 8th annual Gumball rally and last month we hosted another successful series of Christmas events. Our racing division enjoyed lots of success this year in the DoP, OEC, CityLiga 22 and 23, we're looking forward to lots more success this year. Thanks to everyone who joined in with our events this year, we hope to bring you plenty more in 2017!

2016 was another relatively quiet year for LFS development but we did see a few good additions to the sim including one of the best implementations of virtual reality in any racing sim, several graphical updates and of course, siren and traffic-light support. Whilst 2016 saw no additional S3 content, we're hopeful that 2017 might be the year that we start to see some real progress with the tyre physics, cars and tracks that have been in the pipeline for nearly a decade.

In September we announced our new funding initiative which introduced adverts to our forum and perks for generous donors. We were forced to address our funding situation as we explained in a thread shortly after introducing the scheme. We are pleased to say that the support we received in the last quarter of the year was excellent and we're extremely thankful to those who have donated. Although we are still relying on continued donations, your generosity is helping us greatly so thank you.

Last but not least, in case you thought we'd forgotten, the [TC] community awards nominations for 2016 will be opening very soon so keep an eye out for the forum area.

We hope that you have a happy 2017 and continue to enjoy what we do. Thanks for your support.

The [TC] Team
