Another race game in progress

Postby Sury » Sat Jul 07, 2007 3:05 pm

Here's a video.
The game uses custom raycast vehicle.

I'm looking for talented modellers to help me up with the game levels. If you are interested, please PM me.

wow that looks pretty good - if speaking about the physics :P

I cant do the modelling for you, but ill leave a comment anyways:

- You should set a higher gravity, that airtime looks really weird imo.
- The blocks made you instantly stop. Thats what i always hated about TDU and other racing games. You should lower their mass / higher cars mass

Pretty impressive, the video shows a very stable suspension setup, but the gearbox is far from anything realistic, it'd be more suitable for a kind of dune buggy rather than a porsche, also what kind of shape are you using for car collison object? when it landed on roof it looked like you use a box or something, try a convex hull instead.

Well, there's no gearbox at this moment and the game will combine the road and offroad race so the suspension is setup to be a bit soft.
The shape is a simple box, since i just test the drive and i'm more concentrated on some more important stuff.

looking nice.

just a note, your default camera view is MUCH too close to the ground, it makes the game look extremely difficult to play.

Thank you Julio.
I'm using FRAPS to record the video. It does impact the performance alot, but the game(so far) runs at ~67 fps/800x600 on my 950 Duron+GF 5500, so there's still room to keep the frame rate above 25.
