ok, get rid of the screen blank. maybe have the view rotate?
i've tried different camera positions and the best thing i can think of is make the viewpoint changeable. maybe a right-click action?
anyway, my brother wants the comp and i've had it for a while, so...

Re: OT - Couple of racing game demo\'s i made.
the screen only blanks for a quarter second now, for dramatic effect. after that, the screen rotates around where the game ended so you get a 360 view of whatever went wrong. there's also a cockpit view(F1), and the chase view, which now goes much closer(F2). you can also use the wasd keys as well as the arrow keys and right-clicking, holding and moving the mouse rotates the view in chase camera mode. and an updated readme.
on the downside, i stuck a time limit in there.
6 Posts from me, 3 Posts from other people...i know it's just a tech demo, but should i be concluding 1) that they suck, 2) very few people here play racing games or 3) everybody goes mute when they see my amazing tech demo's?

Re: OT - Couple of racing game demo\'s i made.
neither works for me
if you want a better development platform, try out C#, you can get a free command line compiler with the .NET platform I believe
WinForms are really neato

Re: OT - Couple of racing game demo\'s i made.
no error message?
the important C question...how are the help files for C#? the ones i got with C++ VS are useless.
oh, and did you redo the config.txt to point at where you installed it?
i will have it auto-detect it's location, but at the moment, it's not the only urgent thing on my list of things to do. and i have to do the other thing before lack of sleep fries my brain.

Re: OT - Couple of racing game demo\'s i made.
Maybe you should just have some patience and wait at least a few days before complaining? Not everyone has the time to just drop whatever they are doing and play the game demo right away.  |
