Re: [Audyssey] Rail racer tracks question
Hi che. Yes, Rail racer is fun! it's very nice to have a game that I can stick on for a quick five minute race, and at the same time hopefully add to my cash. i do stil need practice at the game though, sinse several of the class 4 tracks are giving me trouble even though I'm fast approaching class 6. As to the extra info business, well I take the point that it's a lot of info for a new player to get used to, but on the other hand, Rail racer has a lot of keys to remember, and freeing a new player from the responsibility of manually checking his/her lean and altitude might make things simpler for some people. Personally, I myself would always go for the more info the better, at first anyway. but this might just be me. Beware the Grue!

Re: [Audyssey] Rail racer tracks question
Hi.

Re: [Audyssey] Rail racer tracks question
Okay, appologies for the bombarding of E-mails here but I've had a look at the problem, and I don't believe it's the tracks that are causing it. I started getting error messages whenever! I attempted to use any of the tracks, but when I turned off web posting things seemed to be fine. the error message was along the lines of Web server is unavailable this is rather confusing, sinse it was working fine last night, and obviously there's no problem with my net connection (or otherwise I couldn't send this E-mail). the says Check firewall but I've already unblocked railracer, and i'm not getting any new messages about the connection being blocked. sinse the Blind adrenaline site is stil up and running (so I assume things are working okay at che's end), any suggestions would be appreciated, sinse now I can't even post times or money to the web. beware the Grue!

Re: [Audyssey] Rail racer tracks question
Hi Dark, Sorry for the late response, I just got back on list and I haven't been checking this email box very often. The problem is with the game server, not your tracks. I have been doing work on the new release of Rail Racer, and it looks like I unplugged a main conduit to the old version by mistake. Anyhow, all should be working fine now. Regarding the new version of RR, I'll update the list when it is ready.

Re: [Audyssey] Rail racer tracks question
No trouble che, when the other tracks briefly stopped working I realized what the issue was. i can't exactly complain if your hard at work on a new version! it was just slightly bad luck for me that this coincided with my first trial of downloaded tracks, -- pse! Regarding the new version, playing the other day a thought did occur to me for another feature, either in this version or a subsequent one. I'm pretty terrible at estimating jump hight (I'm moderately terrible at the game in general, but so it goes), anyway, one problem I have is that by the time I've pressed A to check my altitude, I'm already on wmy way down, thus I get a slightly skewed impression of what hight I was when I cleared the jump. Perhaps you could considder having the option for your hight at the apex of a jump to be spoken automatically, ditto for taking curves, (though I find it slightly easier to hit D at the appropriate place, but others might not). Of course, this sort of auto speaking should be on a toggle, so that you can turn it off when your sufficiently skilled at the jumps and curves. But it might make the game slightly more newby friendly and easy to learn (though it'd stil be difficult to master). If everyone else has sufficiently cracked taking jumps to make this suggestion pointless, or suggesting something that would be needlessly complex to program, my appologies. Beware the Grue!

Re: [Audyssey] Rail racer tracks question
Hi, I've had some renewed interest in Rail racer myself, and have been playing the demo track. I think I like dark's suggestion of announcing when you have hit the apex of your jump and when you have reached the correct lean on a curve. Believe it or not I still haven't won a single race in Rail Racer. I'm just a very poor player at this game.
