8661 Race games 6732 Draw dust is slowww Hello, just tried last binary version 0.91 and the "Draw Dust" option makes the framerate drop a lot.<BR> Also it would be nice to have some kind of "Loading, please wait..." message while loading stuff.<BR> <BR> Anyways this game has a lot of potential, after some issues like these are fixed it will be a great game 2003-02-05 22:53:09 0
8662 Simutrans games -1 Re: nice game <p>I'm glad that you like Simutrans. </p><p> Releases from 0.81.12exp to 0.81.21exp have been mostly bugfix releases. Some of them are only available for beta testers and not published on http://www.simutrans.de </p><p> If you find bugs, please report them to hansjoerg.malthaner@gmx.de </p><p> About the open source request: I don't like the open source idea much. For a while I worked in open source projects, but I didn't like the 'feel'. Also I made one of my projects open source to see if the proclaimed benefits of open source development are true. Well, at least for my test project, I couldn't get more help than I got with closed source projects. I also don't like the missionary behaviour of many open source followers. Over the years it's getting really on my nerves to write answers to all those "make Simutrans open source" requests. </p><p> I think the world is big enough for more than one philosophy. If you want an open source transport sim, then start creating one. I don't understand why Simutrans should be it. Simutrans is my hobby and I do it the way I like. Once I said I'll make it open source when I quit working on it. But in the meantime many people contributed code, graphics and other things to Simutrans, and quite some do _not_ want to 'open' their work. In short - even if you get me to quit, you'd still have to convince all the others to open their work too. I'm no longer in a position to make that decision. But there is an agreement among all develoers that Simutrans is freeware and will be freeware always. Many people appreciate it very much that Simutrans is free of cost. I know you don't care - in the last competition here Simutrans was put in a group with commercial projects which was very unfair IMO because we cannot seriously compete with games that were created with budgets of many hundrets of thousands of dollors. IMO this was no fair competition. </p><p> Some complained there would be no progress in Simutrans development and judged this upon the interval between public releases. If there are no public releases this doesn't mean there is no progress. Over long periods we just had no stable enough versions to publish, but the beta testers usually got test releases every few weeks. Simutrans underwent some major rework of the basic data structures. But anywys, if you think an open source transport sim would develop faster, then just start one. </p><p> Sorry for the long post. </p><p> c.u.<br> Hansjörg Malthaner, initiator of the Simutrans project </p> 2003-02-06 01:16:59 8335
8664 Race games -1 Re: Control The cars seem to behave like trucks with backwheel drive. Does the size of the tires make a difference (is this done in ode) because they seem very small. 2003-02-06 06:50:44 8511
