It'd be nice to have the ability to make a stunt arena, battle tag etc out of a normal map (or vice versa) without having to completely duplicate the folder and rename everything inside for the multiple versions of the same track to coexist. Some parts of the current system seem to already play into...

In particular, I'm imagining it would be possible to re-bind the controls for what are currently the F2 and F3 cameras (as well as the F4 for car cycling. maybe make it possible to cycle backwards through an additional binding while at it). I can imagine it being useful to rebind the screenshot key ...

As of last December, sound effects (as well as sparks and lights) are planned to be added eventually.

TL;DR replicating the atmospheric pre-race sweeping cameras that seem to be a common thing for racing games We've recently gotten the option to enable the stock sweeping camera on custom tracks, but this is an extension to that idea. So the start of a race, let's say an online one, goes through this...

Dunno if "baking" them together would be truly necessary. Basically you should only need to copy the texture of the wheels onto the texture file of the body using pretty much any semi-competent image editor. If the mapping of the body has enough unused space you can just slot in the wheel wherever i...

Sure, but that's kind of a one-way street unfortunately. I actually used that exact method to place the animations in the nhood2 "mod" I did, but once it's been changed to an animation then (iirc) the object in the fob will just fail to re-import to jig's plugin altogether. That and I don't recall w...

While the modern editor controls are a huge step up from what we had before, it's still been irking me somewhat that precise movements, rotations etc are nearly impossible to do (or even less so than before, as with old mig you could rotate snap to 90° increments). https://i.imgur.com/scCDeTxm.png h...

Just did a bit of testing myself on force fields between RVGL and v1.2, and the two of them seem to be mostly consistent with each other, or at least a lot more similar than Stingox's videos are showing. v1.2 on left, RVGL on right https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2B40AgH33uE Is it the same for v1.2 ...

Nice track in general, as everyone's been saying, but I noticed something after trying out the reverse version. I didn't notice this quite as much in the forward version because the reverse start doesn't break up the cars as quickly, but might there be any plans in the future for the AI nodes to hav...

[Not mentioned in this thread yet, but it's been released on RVZ now ] There's actually a tradeoff between things wrt the shockwave: if the shadow mesh matches up with the base mesh, then the shadows get pulled around just the same and the shockwave effect doesn't have any artifacts. At places like ...

Title. The model seems to be loaded properly in makeitgood. But from what I can make of the xbox source, once the objects actually initialize, the mapping is overwritten by a switch statement where the mapping for ghost town 1 is the default case.

I'm curious about the scope of what animations and animation triggers could eventually be capable of. On discord, it was mentioned that sound effects, lights and sparks are all planned. It was also considered that triggers could activate specific keyframes of an animation. Are any other things plann...

Did some testing on nhood2. It seems like certain objects don't want to use their correct texture sheet if an animation exists in the world? (On stock nhood2, the same objects also use incorrect texture sheets in makeitgood, but are fine in normal play) nhood2_doors.zip https://i.imgur.com/9mZ3myc.p...

Just did a bunch of testing on this, modifying the existing conveyors from muse2. Given a coordinate system of X/Y/Z, X and Z are always relative to the world (they pull in the same direction regardless of the conveyor's direction itself, be it sideways, frontways, flipped turnways etc). If the conv...

I've had this happen a couple of times over the years as well. Seems streamable ate one of the clips I had, but video of the end of another instance. I think it's come up on the discord a few times as well, but both times I've had it happen it: - was offline, single-player - both on TW1 (once on nor...

Might be worth a try to leave the "details" out altogether and go with simple colors and gradients to see how it looks. When rvz died and took rvl's stylesheet down with it back in 2015 I threw together like 20 lines of css as a stopgap and it turned out pretty well if I say so myself: https://i.img...

Question not about this specific release, but RVGL in general: does the linux version work with only fluidsynth 1, or can it be made to use fluidsynth 2 without any issues?
Running into this on my newish manjaro install:

Assuming it's the same as the leaked source that's been floating around, it looks to me like it's handled by this: // move train CopyVec(&obj->body.Centre.Pos, &obj->body.Centre.OldPos); obj->body.Centre.Pos.v[Z] -= TimeStep * 200.0f; if (obj->body.Centre.Pos.v[Z] < -11500) obj->body.Centre.Pos.v[Z]...

Custom prms in what context? What are you trying to add, and how are you expecting it to be loaded? If you mean for tracks, you can put prm files in the track's base folder (optionally paired with ncps) to have them available as instances to be placed in makeitgood, or in a /custom folder with the s...

Dumping my own that I've made over the years. All of them (other than those from Speed Dreams) are clickable, the link of which leads to the vector file for them. "Vector file" meaning they're directly recolorable with a vector editor such as Inkscape. Averil, RC San remake, RC Phink remake https://...

Wheels are one of the most important parts of a car, yet also one of the hardest to make properly. This thread is for creators to post/share so other creators can find them more easily. (I'm setting up this new thread on TRH because RVL doesn't have much life left in it, but the similar thread over ...

This is mainly so my one TT time on the forums isn't some ghastly-slow time pulled from a joke post from like four years ago (it still isn't great but this really isn't my thing either).

As far as I understand, the forks in the stock tracks still do have the AI preferring to take one path over the other. However, the preferred path may or may not be easy for AI to get to (eg the inner escalator on muse2 rather than the outer one), so a number of them end up close to the other route ...

I actually remember making sure the joke hats had radial symmetry for this reason.

Here's what I still have of that car, it's not exactly the same but it's mostly still there. Still the same behavior. aerialt-custom.prm
