Racer

[Ruud]

Welcome to RaceDepartment.
As RSC has been offline for quite a while, RaceDepartment has been gracious enough to host a temporary Racer forum.

To kick it off, here is Racer v0.8.0. Warning: all things are set to target relatively high-end graphics card. nVidia 7950+ somewhat. Onboard cards will not do.

The download is at http://www.racer.nl/download/racer080.zip (42Mb).
If you have an ATI card, Cg shaders may not work due to a bug in Cg 2.1. Try the patched racer.exe from http://www.racer.nl/download/racer081a_patch.zip (1Mb).

Hope you can enjoy it!
Ruud

The patch (really a preview of v0.8.1, so interesting for nVidia users as well) changes these, although no data files are included you can check out some things already:
- Added envmap.live_track.sides_per_frame to set update count of live envmap
- Car.ini camera<n>.view variables were read, but never used. Removed loading them, they are (and were) obsolete.
- LOD (level of detail) for objects is now adjusted to take into account the camera FOV (normal FOV=50).
- Split fullscreen_shaders directory into LDR and HDR variants (data/renderer/fullscreen_shaders_hdr and _ldr).
- Added car.ini engine.idle_method to avoid throttle being slightly open all the time. See http://www.racer.nl/tutorial/engine.htm
- Now enforcing engine.stall_rpm to be at least 100 rpm less than idle_rpm to enable the new idle_method 1.
- Added engine.braking_torque_curve to specify a curve for the engine braking instead of the linear parameters.
(the Lambo now uses such a curve for demonstration)
- Modified smoke particles to have no velocity. Also increased the brightness somewhat.
- Bloom map was 16-bit, now 8-bit.
- Added car.ini audio.skid audioset based on skid amount (around 0..2). This allows subtle scrub sounds before
going to screeching & screaming.
- Added 'gearwhine_off' audioset for gearwhine under deceleration circumstances.
- Fuel consumption was based on engine output torque, added internal friction (engine braking torque) in fuel use calculations.
- Renamed racer.ini variable 'collision.report_car_trk' to 'collision.report_car_track_collision'
- Added car.ini's reboundstop_len and reboundstop_k for much the same as a bumpstop, only to prevent wheels falling through susp<n>.maxlen
see http://www.racer.nl/tutorial/suspensions.htm#reboundstops
- susp<n>.restlen no longer needs to be smaller than maxlen. It ignored precompression that way.
- Added fuel.rof to overrule the fuel grams/liter parameter. Normally it's around 700 for regular petrol.
- Added views.ini 'invert' field (0/1) which inverts the variable (like 'factor' which multiplies it)

The list of changes since v0.7.3:

- Bugfix: OpenGL3.0 drivers would crash Racer due to a mistake in getting some extension function pointers.
- Bugfix: track's with special.ini gfx.time below 1000 (10am) were not interpreted correctly.
- Bugfix: turning on projected lights no longer kills some 3D dials
- Heavily modified Cg shaders. Also added a lot more. See http://racer.nl/tutorial/gpushader.htm
- Projected lights used alphafunc, which made lights on semi-transparent object pixely.
- Added car.ini's model_reverse_l/r models for true rear lights. This should do away with the views.ini hack to add reverse lights.
- Modified live track envmapping to not do all sides every frame. Lots faster.
- Removed dbg_stats tree in racer.ini (it was obsolete).
- Added 'clouds' script command for Cg-shaded skies, added 'clouds' uniform float parameter for Cg shaders (0..1).
- Also added 'clouds' in a track's special.ini (env.clouds)
- Added resolution.vsync to sync to display frequency or not (0=max fps, 1=sync, >1=set interval)
- Added moving helmet (+pilot body) model option in car.ini. See http://www.racer.nl/tutorial/helmet.htm
- Raised the number of possible flares for each car to 20 (was 10)
- Simple (single-polygon) shadows for car views without a body model are now turned off.
- Removed 'fx.sky_enable' option. The sky is always on.
- Removed 'gfx.reflections' option. Was/is obsolete.
- Added graphics.show_names to be able to indicate driver names floating above cars.
- Added mirrors.texture.fbo setting to render into an offscreen framebuffer object (faster)
- Added mirrors.texture.fbo_samples setting to enable anti-aliasing of the mirror.
- Added HDR rendering basics (renderer.hdr.enable=1). Uses data/renderer/shaders_hdr directory if enabled, shaders_ldr otherwise.
- Added Bloom rendering for HDR mode (renderer.bloom.enable=1).
- Split data/renderer/shaders directory in two: shaders_ldr and shaders_hdr. HDR is the way to go. LDR will be deprecated.
- Added ini.auto_lights setting (0/1) to determine with time-of-day controls a car's light automatically
- Added shader 'reflect' material property for reflective Cg shaders (in the same line as diffuse, ambient, specular etc).
Use this in conjunction with [dyn_]shader_reflective_v/f.cg for example.
- Added car.shd/track.shd 'motion_blur' variable to turn off motion blur velocity map generation for certain shaders (wheels mostly).
- Added auto-exposure settings for HDR rendering (racer.ini:renderer.auto_exposure.*)
- Added fx.sun.auto_time_of_day to track real current (PC) time for the time of day in Racer
- Added fx.sun.fast_time_factor to set time speed. Normally 0 for no time change, 1 for realtime, >1=faster than realtime
- Added fueltank in cars. See data/cars/default/car.ini (fuel.* settings). Currently in alpha. No fuel means no throttle.
- Added fuel view variables for views.ini files (for cars). See http://www.racer.nl/tutorial/fuel.htm for details.
- Added formatting option for views.ini; 'float_1' displays a value with 1 decimal (for example: 123.4).
- Added 'sample_hold' option for view elements to get slow-updating dials (mostly useful for digital dashboards)
- Added fx.sun.flare option to remove sun flare. It doesn't match with the Cg sun position.

Hi, I am new here.

I tested this simulator a year ago and have come back, however I cannot run it.

The 0.7.3 version crashes a soon as a 3D object should be displayed.

The 0.8 version even dont show the main menu.

Hardware:

ATI HD4670
AMD 5600+

Thank you to someone can help and congrats to all this community !!

Racer Memory....

hmm...
not sure if this should be....
First pic is 0.7.3 at 1280x1024, second is 0.8.0 at 1024x768....seconds before i take the pic racer.exe uses over 400MB.....

 

[KS95]

1st off: Oh boy am I glad to see you guys

2nd off: I can't wait to try out the new version Ruud

3rd off: How did the names get transfered?!

 

[gtpdzbiz]

THX dude,
i tested him...look..

what do you think?

This was with the 0.7.3:

LG Alex

Hi DF
Those R8 looks fantasty, how is the performance one your rig?
Btw, if your R8 was based on the American version, i think those chrome parts(wheels, light reflector) should get more reflection color.

Hope we can try our hands on your new car soon

ATI HD 2600 Pro same prob as Oricle

I have tried both versions. Of course I can get ver 6.4 to run but I want the good stuff the CG.

Anyone able too get it to run on the ATI HD 2600 Pro?

How do I find out if the card supports the CG shaders?

I know it supports pixel shaders 3.0.

Here is me log if it helps. ( Sorry its so long)

Looks to me like it doesn't support CG

Looks to me like it doesn't support CG

I got the same errors in 0.8.0, but Cg shaders work in 0.6.4.

I think it's more like the latest versions of Racer not supporting some Radeon (HD?) cards..

 

[KS95]

It could be to do with the latest versions graphical effects, maybe it doesn't support them? At least you can get CG in 0.6.4

 

[KS95]

I recon that your graphics card doesn't support CG. Try using 0.6.4, see if that works, if not, then you might need to use 0.6.3 (no CG).

 

[JohnPhoenix]

what to ask for when buying card?

o.k.

my card dont support cg shaders. doh!

what do i look for when i go buy a new card?

I had never heard of cg shaders until i got racer.

will the box say cg pixel shader support ? like it does for 3.0 pixel shaders?

Also, could it be possible that the card does support cg and its just not enabled?

Perhaps there is a way to enable cg shaders from ATI's tray icon desktop configure program?

( i forget what its called, its in the tray by default but i removed my tray icon)

i'm getting a black screen on driving view. the rear view mirror (ok).and the menus (ok)
0.8
os: windows xp ulitimate
Card is a 7900gtx (512mb)

0.7.3 version runs no problem. not got it anymore.

Hi,
if you run fullscreen change it to windowed mod...
I had to change the resolution to a lower too...

 

[FiftyOrange]

Heeee, I've already asked this one:

http://forum.racedepartment.com/racer/16394-one-rvg-graphics-cards.html

Some great advice in there.


In short, buy nVidia, and something either "8XXX" or "9XXX" or "GTX" if you've got money to burn. (for example: "nVidia GeForce 8400GS" will do the job, and "nVidia GTX285" would be excellent)

That reminds me, Ruud, would it be possible to have smoke affected by the car's movement. Like the smoke particles inherit the vehicle's velocity or something? Having it affected by the drag would be cool too.

Sorry for hijacking your thread.
OT:
My Laptop GPU couldn't handle racer with the initial settings. I think that was mainly a fill-rate issue. But I'm starting to feel the effect of more and more shaders...

Lol, you know I've got to say something too. I agree, the motion of the smoke in 0.5.0f was much much better than now.

Perhaps you could use CUDA for damage effects, it seems like it would be
pretty easy if you used mesh warping techniques where a very low res
model (think shadow model) were used to define the hardness of a particular area of the body, just assign a material for example name it
crush_1 for a soft area to crush_10 for very hard areas.

thanks try that same results.

i getting a message about the stencil errors can't get 16 reduced to 8.

Smoke now gets a negative car velocity, plus some randomness. I've taken out the velocity, just using 0 for v0.8.1. Hope that pleases you.

Damage is not really high on the priority list (except car-car & car-track hitting sounds).

I never stopped!

.......Modeling that is. I'm not going to show the Kier, since it (and it's variants) are almost done. I just need to texture it.


However, I will show the Aviva Cil. Roughly the size of a Renault Twingo or Ford Ka, the Cil is a Small, FF layout city car to compete and slaughter such cars as the Repus Fugly.


My modeling isn't the best, but I think I'm getting better.


I abandon that Rear-enigine, RWD 2-seater, and went for a more traditional FF layout 4-passenger city car. I tried to retain the anguarity and styling features that are seen in my drawings and the Kier. A reverse kink would be impractical (and look a bit tired), so I went for an upright, slightly wraparound rear hatch.

Here it is compared to the Repus Fugly. The Fugly is around 10% larger than my car, and is much more space efficient. Mine has all sorts of dips, curves and surfacing to break up the car's shape.

Inside, a Chevron holds the gauges. There is a stereo, and the HVAC controls underneath. (Sorry for the horrible normals)

What do you think? I hope to release this for Racer real soon.......

Here's the original in the game:

Loosk a lot better, nice to see ya again too

 

[Alexander Knoll]

hmm....thats bad....
witch driver version do you use?
I've used the 182,50 with my 8600GTS and no probs with 0.7.3.
I had to rollback to 178,24 to get the 0.8.0 working.....
