Time to prevoke some interest in LFS again after the last thread posted (Christmas report thread)
As some of you will already know the LFS progression is a tad on the slow side.
But that doesn't stop the developers releasing little bits of nostalgic content now and again.
The latest installment... is actually an old patch from LFS back when it was jut starting out.

"Hello LFS Racers,
Inspired by the Blast from the past! thread where some community members were trying to get an old S1 version working, with some success, yesterday afternoon I dug up the source code for test patch S1H6 (released in March 2005). In a few hours it was up and running again. Three small changes were needed so that :
- it works with the new master server
- it can be unlocked on the latest Windows versions
- there is no need to earn credits to unlock cars
This update has now been released as S1H7. So if you are interested in a bit of nostalgic racing, give it a go!
If you already have S1H installed you can just update the EXE :
LFS_S1H7_EXE.zip (EXE only, S1H must already be installed)
Alternatively you can install a FULL VERSION S1H7 :
LFS_S1H7.exe (full version, no patch needed : 90 MB)
Here is a dedicated host download of S1H7 in case you want to run a host :
LFS_S1H7_DEDI.zip (dedicated host : 1 MB)
Have fun!
There was alot of mixed feelings about this unexpected release but alot of people were greatful that the version LFS kicked off with has been brought back to life.
Enjoy!
