Stunts Related Programs / Re: SDL 3

Code Select Expand

$ ./simcar
SDL_FRAMEBUFFER_ACCELERATION 0

Segmentation fault         (core dumped) ./simcar


Of course it says "Segmentation fault", the functions support only 32 and 16 bits. If the game works with SDL 2, then you probably have 16 bits, so try 16 with SDL 3, but take this version:

Version 6.2.0 supports SDL 1.2, 2.0 and 3.0, according to your preference.

If your screen is really set to 24 bits then you can only use SDL 1, but I never saw a screen working with this setting on any computer ever since I use GNU/Linux, from 2003.

One point left to return to Série A! Three points with a Coritiba defeat to reach the unlikely tittle!

Stunts Related Programs / Re: SDL 3

Nice, I'll try it out soon.

I tried running it, but couldn't make it work while using sdl3 from the Arch Linux repo, and didn't manage investigate further so far. Running the binary from the attachment initially gives the following error:

Code Select Expand

$ ./simcar
SDL_FRAMEBUFFER_ACCELERATION 0
>> Set BITSPERPIXEL to 24 and recompile.<<

After changing BITSPERPIXEL in graphics/grconfig.h and recompiling, the executable segfaults:

$ ./simcar

Competition 2025 / Re: Cloned replays, ZCT285 to ...

Last post by Matei - November 20, 2025, 08:01:26 AM

The solution is simple: use "no replay handling". Not the version of Stunts with that, which is of course outdated. This:

https://forum.stunts.hu/index.php?topic=4471.msg98591#msg98591

There are only a few problems. The simulation uses floating point numbers, so for some reason the replays work properly only with the same compiled executable, but I already provided that. The replays recorded with car 1, which has the stiffest suspensions, still have a few problems, so I recommend cars 2, 3 and 4. As mentioned, the replays are saved like in Stunts.

I will post today on my site the version that also supports SDL 3, thanks for testing.

As a member of Cork's Crew, as well as the one who flagged the problem at the end of ZCT292, I fully accept the findings and regret that this has come to pass for as long as it did. I'll answer any questions you might have about this incident to the best of my knowledge about the facts.

Competition 2025 / Cloned replays, ZCT285 to 292

Last post by dreadnaut - November 20, 2025, 12:05:05 AM

Hello folks, I have to sadly bring to attention a series of "cloned" replays that we have discovered among the submissions for ZCT285 to ZCT292. These were created continuing from an available replay sent by another pipsqueak, tens of seconds or even a minute through the lap. One similar case happened during ZCT233.

How do we spot these? The check is part of the end-of-race steps, where we review all the replays on the final scoreboard for missing penalty time, suspicious similarities, etc.

Unfortunately these checks only cover the final replays, and require fallible human attention: we only recognised the problem at the end of ZCT292. This means we failed to highlight the issue right away, and let it grow over the course of eight races. While fixing the data is easy, I am sorry to bring you this disappointment.

In the next days we will disqualify all cloned replays, and update track and season scoreboards. Experience points, PTB, and Folyami ratings will probably need updating as well. We will also try to improve the way we check replays, to make sure we don't leave similar problems undiscovered.

We have been unable to contact Mortimer after bringing up the issue, so we still lack full understanding of the situation, and any penalties have not been finalised.

You can find the full list of affected replays in the attached file.

Chat - Misc / 80's cult movies remakes

Last post by Mortimer Macmire - November 15, 2025, 10:42:01 PM

Don't know if there are any other fans of 80's cult movies here. But lately there has been a couple of great (and not so great) remakes of those movies.

In the last two months Red Sonja (not good) and Toxic Avenger (good) got their remake/reboot released and last week the LEGENDARY Deathstalker franchise got a new entry released (Really good).

If you haven't seen any of the original movies I can also highly recommend those in all of their glorious cheesiness  !

Last post by Mortimer Macmire - November 15, 2025, 10:30:41 PM

Cool, didn't know this poll existed. Although I'm not as good as the guys on television, I weekly play darts in a local competition. So I follow it quit closely. I even played a couple of the players mentioned (Van Gerwen, Anderson) many years ago.

But for now I have to go for the most sensible answer which obviously is Littler. Although due to his long career without a World Championship and his recent resurgence I also hope Wade will make it far this tournament.
