It's as easy as that
For the purposes of this contest, uploading to Google Drive or Dropbox is the fastest since there is nothing to fill out.

Make sure you add at least one picture. If you have more problems you should probably bring it to another forum to keep this one on topic

I have been trying to upload a park to the exchange which doesn't seem to be working for me... which was quite annoying with 5 minutes to go in the 5HOP contest.
Can anyone advise the steps to upload. I have saved my park as a package and regardless of whether I drag and drop the file or try to select from the file folder it doesn't seem to respond. Has anyone got any advice on what I might be doing wrong or if this is a common problem?
Next guess!
It was much more difficult than I thought, I had practiced on the last 2 years rules but this had me sweating...! Haha. Also I still can't seem to upload to the exchange. I am saving as a package but the drag and drop or select from folder still won't work. Can anybody advise on that and I will upload for all to see 😁
One of the side purposes of this contest is to demonstrate what is possible within the NoLimits 2 editor. A main complaint about NL2 is that it is hard to use and takes forever to build something good. This contest shows how it is possible to quickly build a quality track in a short period of time. FVD++ produces near perfect results, but it is not as easy to use initially without a deeper understanding of what I'll refer to as math shaping, which doesn't help the "NoLimits 2 is hard to use". No external scripts/tools has been a staple of 5HOP from the beginning and it will continue to be.
To allow FVD++ would involve two classes of builders and new folks wouldn't be able to compete. With requiring the built in tools, new folks learning and people who have switched to FVD++ and are super rusty at hand building are all of a sudden on the same level playing field.
Now a separate contest just around speed FVD++ building could certainly be run where FVD++ is required. Anyone want to organize that?

Very difficult haha
A mile of track was a lot to make, but I think it worked out in the end and brought some cool designs.
Yay thanks!
Responded.
For everyone else, thoughts on this year's challenge?

Im having problems uploading to the exchange as I've never uploaded anything there before. I have the park saved as a pkg file. Has anyone else had this problem?
