lol for a car physics engine, i honestly hate it, theres no good drifting...

but for the collision parts and the AI i LOVED IT!!

the absolute rapage you get from the cops when you put 30 or so in there reminds me alot of Left 4 Dead when the horde comes after you

8/10!! lol




im having so much fun with just the .exe =P

Thanks for the reply. I must inquire- Did you change the values to make the drifting how you would like it?

[Unleashed]

Uh oh. I got a Error that says that it's not a gm file, and that its corrupted.....

[True Valhalla]

Wow! Great engine!

So using this for my muck-around Death Race clone =D

[chaz13]

Thanks, I'd love it if you'd pm me a link when you release the first demo.

[True Valhalla]

Hehe, will do!

Do you mind if I use the sprites in the game, but heavily altered?

[chaz13]

The cars are not my sprites, so I don't mind. They're from the original gta game, or atleast a fan based website where people submit cars like those.

[True Valhalla]

Ok, no problem then =D

It's coming along better than I expected. I was originally just mucking around with the engine, but now I can see it's actually quite versatile. Enemy AI was easy to implement (as in driving around a circuit), and the number of variables I have access to is excellent.

Only issue I had, the walls aren't fully coded? I fixed them up, but are you going to get around to that?

Anyway, great engine, and I might even continue with my muck around game, and maybe I'll get something good out of it.

Cheers,

That sounds brilliant, I can't wait to see it.

I have started to consider re-writing Gearshift. The current version has been going on for too long and is becoming rather innefficient. It's not definate, or even probable, but it's definately a possibility.

Uh oh. I got a Error that says that it's not a gm file, and that its corrupted.....

I got the same error....

[chaz13]

Strange, it's working for me.

EDIT: Perhaps I left a gb1 in there, make sure you're opening the editable.

when is the new version coming i hope you will ad some cool features and fixes to the scripts

[chaz13]

I'm not sure. I doubt I'll be updating this version of Gearshift any further, but there's a definate possibility I will be re-writing it.

[sanassar]

This is pretty cool. I will definetly use it in my game I'm making called Pacman Unlimited.(Yes, It means Pacman will be allowed to drive a car, xD).

[Mr_Drayton]

Definitely what I was trying to do for years... That's perfect, I think I'll use it in my project. But there's a problem: I get an error about the point_direction when hitting a wall_obj...

[chaz13]

You can fix that by adding

var pointdir;
pointdir=point_direction(x,y,other.x,other.y)

At the start. Glad you like it.

[06jamhob]
