Bug#467307: too difficult

2008-03-24 Thread Bram Stolk
2.1.3 lowers the difficulty some more. It is easier to re-start at save points by pressing 'ESC' once. Also, recovery of stuck vehicles has been improved. A car with spinning wheels going nowhere is detected, and a recovery bump is attempted. ___

Bug#465734: menu in stormbaan coureur

2008-03-21 Thread Bram Stolk
Hi, I'm upstream author. I'll see what I can do about this. It may be tricky, as the menu and the car are steered with the same keys/gamepad. The transition from steering car to steering menu is vague, thus you get spurious input. Bram ___

Bug#459893: save games in stormbaan coureur

2008-03-21 Thread Bram Stolk
Hi, Checkpointing is done via the floppy disk icons. But I agree: they are not as useful as they should be, because if you get stuck, ESCAPE goes to menu, and not to save point. Maybe it should check if it can go back to a savept instead. Bram (upstream author)

Bug#465735: wheel slip in stormbaan coureur

2008-03-21 Thread Bram Stolk
Good suggestion. I'll add some detection code. Also, maybe I should add a game functionality. If you press a certain key, 4-wheel drive is activated, so you can still get out of difficult spots. If all 4 wheels are slipping, a recovery jump would make sense. I'll try to implement this. Bram

Bug#467307: stormbaan coureur too hard

2008-03-10 Thread Bram Stolk
I am the upstream author of this game. I agree it is too difficult. I just released 2.1.2 which is somewhat easier, as the track has been widened. Also, the simulation has been improved. But the nr of obstacles is the same. I will think about multiple tracks. However, it will be a while before I

Bug#465464: endiness

2008-02-12 Thread Bram Stolk
I know that the game used to run without problems on ppc, after it was fixed for sound-problems. It may be an endian bug creeped back in, but my guess is that it should be ok. Could the reporter please run the demos that come with ODE, to see if his libode is working fine? Bram
