Linus: USER ERROR probably... :p
There should be a Tracks folder somewhere.. and the Track names appear in a box below the driver selection screen (12 tracks).
If not, try downloading it again

Jake: It's very simple: in the sound folder there are two subfolders. Default and Funny. You can change between the two soundscemes in the options menu.
To add a new soundscheme, just create a new subfolder! You need 5 soundfiles:
Damage.wav -> The sound you hear when you hit something
Ding.wav -> The countdown sound at the lights and the sound you hear when you start the final lap
Engine.wav -> The engine :)
Skid.wav -> Skid sound :)
Yeah.wav -> Sound played when the winner crosses the line and at the end of a season.

I just made a copy of the Default folder and replaced the sounds one by one 'till I found some I liked. Try this one to start with, that's the engine sound I'm using: http://www.hi.is/~bjornkri/Engine.wav

Good/Bad news everybody! (I think the good is better). I sent an E-mail via the feedback/comment link; I said just how awesome the game is and so on. Anyway I asked about a Track Editor and Multiplayer, this was his reply.


Hi,

Track editor exists and we will release it in few weeks.
Online multiplayer mode would be nice, but there's this problem with lag. In this type of game even smallest amount of lag would pretty much take the fun out of it, i think. Maybe some sort of online play mode is possible, but that's not going to happen any time soon, unfortunately.

BTW, your message was first that came outside of finland, and it's only a week after we posted the game to a finnish gaming site (www.suomipelit.com). The game is spreading a lot faster than i thought it would.

Arse!

Uploaded the wrong file yesterday, that was the default sound..

try this one: http://www.hi.is/~bjornkri/Engine.wav

Stupid IE cache... if you're still getting the same sound, try this:

http://www.hi.is/~bjornkri/Engine2.wav

And then rename it to Engine.wav...

Great game! :) Thanks :up:

It's not too hard if you learn the tracks. I can beat the AI at 100% on Agari. My current best time there is 8.45 on the Formula car.

How's everyone elses lap times?

EDIT: my lap time was with 0% tyre wear, 0% fuel consumption, 0% damage, and 0 kg of fuel. This way the car performance is always the same.

They all handle differently--for example, the Yankee is supposed to be like a stock car...

Yeah, and to see how different they are, try a Truck vs. Formula car at Snoogy.. :) All the cars have very different strengths any weaknesses, the truck has massive grip in the snow (my record there is 8.44)
