Stunts Questions / Re: Other games?...
November 03, 2024, 04:18:08 PM
https://sourceforge.net/projects/simple3d/

Latest version with just my tracks and the version with tracks from Stunts is here and not at sourceforge.net, because those tracks are not free:

https://matei.one/idxscr.html

To make them entirely free I should change all the track elements and no one is apparently interested anyway... and Sourceforge started having problems with Cloudflare...

Custom Cars with Stressed / Re: Baronetti HEXA
July 12, 2024, 08:50:08 AM
Yeah I noticed, I have to disable the dashboard when I use this car because otherwise I can't see the road and also because the framerate drops too much and the game becomes unplayable (I can't set DosBOX to more than 12500 cycles on this computer). None of the other cars has these problems.

In my games the wheels were always spheres, so your innovative feature is at least 14 years old, but it never occured to me to make them look like spheres. Why would I do that? Another thing: the first time I saw the icy road in Stunts I thought something was wrong. WTF why is the road white? The game was working fine last time I played it.

Looks like Pandora.

But for $200 I recently bought 2 good laptops and right now I use a netbook which I bought in 2011 for a little over $200 and which runs Stunts in DosBOX just fine. It also plays *.webm videos from y****be at 1280x720 perfectly.

There's also DOSEMU:

You'll have to wait a little while for the new version of my game because I'm working on something else right now, btw.

"F1 2021 × Moon Over The Castle":

Much better version:

F1, F1 theme and Gran Turismo suck, obviously, but this song is nice. Football also sucks, btw:

You're both wrong. It was Elton John, but this version is better.

I don't know if anyone noticed, but I also made a (3D) vectorial track visualization tool.

https://forum.stunts.hu/index.php?topic=4280.msg94131#msg94131

If slightly modified to display the track in the desired position and compiled with the appropriate options it can automatically generate a *.bmp file and maps for all the tracks in a directory can be generated with a few simple scripts, but why would anyone be interested?

[edit]
Attached the file, instructions inside (stuntsmaps.tar.gz). ImageMagick is required to generate *.png files, otherwise they can just be kept as *.bmp.

My replay is in the attached file (zct274.tar.xz). As can be observed, I win and everyone else is disqualified.

I think I might have already mentioned that your tricks have no effect on me and I appear to be the only one here who can:

1. Keep the car on the road (as long as there is a road)

2. Drive without breaking tha laws (of physics, among others)

Bill Gates:

QuoteAlthough 3 million computers get sold each year in China, people don't pay for our software. Someday they will, though, and as long as they are going to steal it, we want them to steal ours. They'll get sort of addicted, and then we'll somehow figure out how to collect sometime in the next decade.

I won't "leech" any tracks, I will give a link to this site, with the appropriate explanations. I'm very careful about how I distribute everything and these tracks, unlike mine (yes, I made a few, along with 2 games to go with them), are not labelled anywhere as free.

QuoteIf we use my game, which, with some help from Mr. Cas, will also feature tracks from Stunts soon.

It does now. I understand that no one likes me here, the reasons being explained, as usual, on my site.

QuoteIf the truths are sufficiently impalatable, our audience is psychically incapable of accepting them and we will be written off as [...]

However, this happens to me everywhere, so it's not a problem. I understand that the people here (besides me), not being particularly smart, are not interested in any game in which the car doesn't move exactly like in Stunts and I won't make any more comments on that, but if you want to promote Stunts, i.e. get more people interested, I estimate that a good game based on it might not be a bad thing. Since I will use your tracks, I will give you some publicity. The question is which type of publicity and this why I started writing here, contrary to what I wrote some time ago, because I wanted to be sure. Anyone?

You are distorting reality, because my reference to your child abuse was a joke. I do have a chapter referring to that on my site though:

http://matei.info.ro/rel.html#abuzuri

However, Dr. Stallman said that teaching kids to use nonfree software is like teaching them to smoke tobacco. He's a doctor, he should know about these things:

I was writing about software and computers until you changed the subject and concerning "the other stuff", my access here was recently restricted for writing something in a place where it said "Just write what you want". Right.

About "They will find you":

QuoteHe lit a lamp in broad daylight and said, as he went about, "I am looking for a human."

Very hard to find these humans and coincidentally, the text of the song I quoted earlier says:

Stop this madness, the earth is full to the brim.
Stop, otherwise I'll go crazy -
