Variety Racing first demo has been released!

This first demo is called "Cuttin' Corners" and is like a little test, to test your corner cutting skills.

Keys are easy enough; just drive with the arrow keys and exit with ESC.

Note: Variety Racing is made completely by me. The gray car comes from a demo of Newton Game Dynamics. Newton Game Dynamics is the physics engine that powers objects (of which only the car and its tires exist currently

) in this game. I created this demo in 3D GameStudio by Conitec (http://www.3dgamestudio.com).

Here's the program. Just go to the EXE in the zip. After it extracts, go to the EXE in the new folder (I think it's something like "variety_tracks.exe" or something).

The package is missing logolite.pcx. A quick fix to get the program working is to make a copy of palette.pcx and rename it to logolite.pcx.

Well Mat, it runs well, and looks fine, but your vehicular physics appear to be very messed up.

Nice work so far.

I'll post comments on the game after I finish downloading and try it....Looking forward to seeing what you have come up with ....

Sorry about the problems, guys.

I'm new to game uploading and such, and I don't know about certain things...

WAIT! Do you have DirectX 9.0c? It requires that version.

Oh, and I'll try to correct the "broken link" problem.

About the "funny car physics" thing - what seems to be the trouble?

Here you go. Place the contents of this ZIP in the Variety Racing Cuttin' Corners folder.

"Hmmmm" what, bro? Trying to say something?

As I stated, I clicked the link, and the file downloaded. I didn't have to copy & paste anything myself. i've been busy though, and still haven't tried the demo yet.

I believe Geocities limits how much can be downloaded during a certain period from websites. I suspect you first tried when the allotment was used up. Usually in that case, you wait an hour and try again, or try late at night.

BTW, you guys who love MTM2 might have a few suggestions for this game. Got any?
