Problems with Racer? Post here!

[Eholov]

Make sure that the tire radius in the car.ini matches the actual tire radius on the visual tire models

thank you! it work

 

[skybh]

Make sure the car is not to big
The size of the wheel model should be the size of real one !
Exemple : if the tyre are 225/60 R17
In zmodeler width and heigh of wheel should be ~0,701m
and in car.ini, radius MUST be 0.351
A link to calculate wheel radius
http://www.flat4ever.com/?page=roues
(it gives diameter so radius is half of that)

II play the game and it write down: can't create CG fragement shader program... please help

 

[Stereo]

Your computer's video chip is not adequate to play Racer, at least not with all cg settings turned on. You could try turning off shadowmapping on the graphics options, but it might fail somewhere else then.

Ok Guys I have a problem when I launch racer up its fine but then when I play the graphics are messed up you cant see the screen flashes and everything is grey I need
HELP

Hello everybody!

I'm new here and I registered hoping to get some support with Racer. I'm a Linux user and some years ago I already stumbled upon the Linux version of Racer which was by far the best native racing game for Linux in my opinion. However, the Linux version has been discontinued and when I wanted to run it some time later it refused to start.

Today I thought, I'd try to make Racer run again, this time the Windows version using Wine. Surprisingly, this worked to some extent. However, each version that I tested had its problems:

Version 0.90RC8 was entirely unusable due to severe screen flickering and wrong colours. Screen flickering disappeared after disabling "Render once" but wrong colours still remained.

Version 0.8.34 works very smoothly but doesn't support most of the nice car models available on the net.

Versions 0.8.4-0.8.8 work nicely and support many models, however there is one issue: The game fails to connect to 127.0.0.1 so entering a race fails. However, if one edits racer.ini as described here, everything works fine: http://www.racedepartment.com/threads/v0-5-4-beta-1-cant-connect-port-25000.14739/ Unfortunately the game ruins the editing and restores the original file when trying to enter a race. The only way out that I could find, was making racer.ini read only. This however has the disadvantage that no configuration can be done from within the game (like selecting a different car or track or even selecting a different race mode).

I'd really like to make one of the versions work properly, pack it together with the best cars and tracks I can find and make a package for some Linux distributions such that Linux users who like racing games won't miss this awesome game (I hope, there are no licensing problems, but that's a thing to be checked later). However, each version tested so far has its problems and I'm really stuck trying to solve them. I think, versions 0.8.4-0.8.8 are the most promising candidates, however this localhost vs. 127.0.0.1 problem makes the game pretty much unusable. Therefore I'd appreciate any help in solving the issue!

Thanks,
PhotonX

Hey everyone

Trying to get racer to display properly.
Running on laptop with the following

Intel Core I7 2630QM
4GB RAM
Dual Display Chips (Intel HD for 2D, ATI Radeon HD 2770M for 3D)
Windows 7

I have set the Radeon as the display adapter to use for Racer

I am having issues with the graphics being blurred as you can see below that I can't find a solution to:

 

[Harey]

Did you go into the racer.ini and find "ati=" and set it to 1?

 

[beerpig]

Yep ati=1 is set.
At a loss as to what else it could be???

 

[beerpig]

Never mind. I have fixed it. Despite having the option to assign a GPU to specific games, it seems the PC was not switching to the appropriate GPU properly. There was strangely an option in the BIOS which either switches the GPU "dynamically" based on 3d requirements or "Fixed" as in controlled by the GPU driver settings. Switched it to fixed and now displaying properly

 

[mdbobbo]

the new version of racer is not starting at all anyone know where I can get this file (MSVCP120.dll) that works with racer??
I'm running windows 7 on hp pavilion laptop it all worked up to this version

 

[boomer541]

Ruud says to run "vcredist_x86_vc2013.exe" included on the download to install missing dll's.

 

[Aoryu]

Hello Everyone! I got this error primarily:

The i read previous answers and disabled "ShadowMapping" and i have this error now:

At least i have less errors =P

Latest Version (racer090rc10)

Thanks in Advance!

 

[Raphael Buthmann]

And when it records its without audio so ... how can I fix it?
