I guess that can happen with any game? With that rule you could never promise anything to anyone.

Most (known) games have more than 2 developers

LFS has such a small development team, only two of them know how to 3D model and one of them can only do basic stuff. If someone had spent money on S3 because they wanted the 2 new tracks that should be coming but they don't get released and Scawen had promised them, then The devs could get into trouble. Even though these tracks should be coming out, Scawen is avoiding any problems if they don't come out.

If it coming new users to lfs so thanks to slaptrain, they can work more on this game

Another few updates about the map.

Scawen Wrote:Here's another test patch with some Westhill path fixes, a fix at the Autocross skid pad and opacity sliders for small maps.

Changes from 0.6Q7 to 0.6Q9 :

Small map opacity can now be set for light and dark map colours
Westhill paths adjusted and regenerated to avoid graphical holes
Autocross paths regenerated and physical hole fixed at skid pad

Hello Racers,

Here is a new TEST PATCH : 0.6Q10

It contains a new version of Blackwood :

- New textures, geometry and detail improvements all around
- New Historic configuration (similar to GP but without chicane)
- New industrial estate area available when open config selected

Other incompatible changes :

XRG / XRT / FZ5 maximum steering angle increased to 45 degrees
Spawn position now disables "Could not join : Start is blocked"
Maximum number of layout objects increased to 2100 (was 1800)

Other changes :

There is an improvement in the car shadow system, which until now could cast shadows in the wrong direction.
Skid marks now remain remain when the race restarts and are visible on layout objects.
There is a new map view for open configurations and the track selection screen.
Please read the full list of changes below for more information.

AWESOME NEW MAP!

We now have a city driving with this update!
