Oh, while ur downloading stuff about the game:

Car deformations work pretty well now, bends up and breaks off wheels, affects how the cars drive. Now properly syncronised across the network.
In sandbox mode, hit F1 and you have a level editor. Its pretty easy to add you own stuff to open the objects folder, there are some XML files in there, pretty self explanatory.
Multiplayer is still pretty buggy.

Looking good, the mesh deformations rock

since you're using irrlicht 1.0, you should copy lines 976-977 from 1.1's CTerrainSceneNode.cpp to stop the terrain from disapearing when the camera is on the edge of a patch, or use 1.1 or svn irrlicht of course

seeing that it was 4am, and I wanted to go to bed, but also wanted to get some feedback I put it up to get some helpful comments.

My webhosting is down again for some more hilarious maintance, so no downlaods, no screenshots anywho.

When its back up ill put some screenshots up.

edit:---

Hosting is kinda backup, anyone know of any good cheap webhost, $5 ish a month? I dont need much traffic or space.

Nice screenies.

GoDaddy? If not the cheapest, then probably on par with the cheapest. Plus you can always find coupon codes online to save a couple of bucks.

Really nice, but why does the red car has the wheels misplaced?

JP · Post by JP » Mon Oct 23, 2006 10:21 am

it has 6 wheels instead of 4, for some reason

I did like that when i saw it

The truck got stuck in the ground upon its spawning, but then slowly got pushed up and was then able to be moved.

And some of the cars handled badly i found, it was a little jerky in a way, may just be my pc but i wouldnt think it was framerate issues, tho coulda been!

Im on a new more reliable webhost now YAY, soo all downloads should now work.

JP is correct, it has 6 wheels like those Scorpion remote control cars.

Some of the cars doo handle pretty badly, I spent more time programming than I did editting car configuration files, all care files are within the /cars/ folder as xml files, you can add cars yourself, they will get added to the ingame menu automagically.

The camera is a bit jerky, and my new camera code hasnt improved this. I have found that within newton cars do seem to kinda jerk and judder along, i dont know what could be done to improve this, but it is annoying.

Oh btw, the FPS is displayed in the title bar.
