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.

new update. will now auto-generate a config.txt file. if you tried it before and it didn't work, please try it again.

i'm learning something new with every update.

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. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Re: OT - Couple of racing game demo\'s i made.
 

right, consider my impatience chastened.

i will now wait 3 days before panicking. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

new upload uploading now, new hazard. not actually inspired by indiana jones, despite the obvious simalarity's.

i know there's at least one graphical glitch with it, it will be dealt with tommorrow.

well, if anyone was annoyed by the terrain not always being pounded flat in a small strip, that's been fixed.

and just in case anyone missed it, Jet Racer now detects it's folder.

and here's the link, just to keep it at the top. http://www3.telus.net/funnybnz/test.html

Not a bad start, Narf.

The collision detection needs to be improved for the 'Jet Racer' game. I'm able to skim through the tops of the stalagties/stalagmites (whichever refers to the one jutting from the ground).

Re: OT - Couple of racing game demo\'s i made.
 

Stalag T ites are from the Top

Re: OT - Couple of racing game demo\'s i made.
 

yeah, i'm using about six contact points to see if any of them are below ground. i think about 5 more should do it.

of course, if anyone knows a more efficient method, there welcome to point it out. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif
