for those of us who want to try the upcoming rail racer game with a variety of

I tried to send this yesterday, but it never got to my in box, so I

the full Host Name and the 4-digit port code.
Can anybody help with this please, as I am only getting an error 11001.

I wouldn't try c++ as a beginner myself - I made the big mistake of trying
vb - didn't understand any of it I didn't know anything about how computers
worked - so I tried autoit, and I still use it now, and will continue using
it until I have learned and am competent with another programming
I have tried programming with autoit, but I found that the documentation was
not good at all. It just gave you examples. I've never programmed anything
before, so it made no sence. Is there a better documentation that actually
explains what functions are etc?

Same here, need documentation that's really simple and assumes nothing, but
does not rush through things. Any language that can give me such support I
will do.

Hi, Will.
I have successfully ran RR with a gamepad with no problems.
Probably for the coolest racing experience a Racing wheel is preferable
as it kind of has that racing feel.
I certainly like racing wheels over the feel of the mouse.

Sure. Well, you have Aliens in the Outback, Shades of Doom 1.2,
Troopenum, and I know Montezuma's Revenge does as I am currently working

code is slightly buggy to some degree, but functional.

No wonder you got lost. The stuff you mentioned is apart of Microsoft's

Thanks to Thomas for the offer. I think however, the June 2005 may not

If you mean by VB (VB 6) I disagree. Here is why.
If someone starts out with VB 6 and not VB.net the new programmer is

Hi, Che.
As of the last Alpha RR was working with the June 2005 DirectX runtime.
That is the version I have been building against for Monty, Raceway, and
STFC, and obviously the version I was testing RR with. However, this was
on a Windows XP Pro system.

Hi, Ryan.
I am sure Che can correct me if I am wrong on this, but it does appear
by using the mouse you can get slightly better lap times. At the moment
RR is not multiplayer as of the last Alpha so you are competing against
the AI racer.

Rail Racer does not include multi player support, however your lap and

Hi Thom,
Is there any way for one to check their system to find out what current
version they have?
Will windows automatically download the newest version of direct x if set up
to do so?
What is the latest version # of direct x and where can one get it?
Thanks for the help.

Well, the MS Windows update service generally does not have the newist

When you say that C++ is one self-contained program and has no silly

As I just pointed out when you run dxdiag you are given the version of

Hi.
I have already responded to these questions in the DirectX thread. June

Hi, Richard.
Well, .net framework 1.1 and 2.0 are not the same framework, but 2.0 is
backwards compatible with 1.1 applications.
I've been testing this, and will be fixing Montezuma's Revenge and STFC
so that they will operate correctly in 2.0 and run smoothly on 1.1 or 2.0.
