Subject: [Audyssey] rail racer, was: Re: question about input methods for
swamp

   Hey christopher,
   Hold off on getting the demo of RR. i've got a couple glitches to work
out of rail racer that will allow a new demo that works properly with modern
64 bit win7 systems, as well as allows you to make and race your own tracks
with a brand new track editor.
   also, it won't require updating your framework, or installing direct x
etc. which was a major pain with the original version.
   i had hoped to have it out earlier this year, but I added new games to
the card room, and we've had a lot of people join, which means time taken up
with tech support, and time is at a premium when your a one band operation.
   anyhow, i'll update the list when the new RR full version and demo are
ready to check out.

 I play on my netbook, using my touchpad. Honestly, I haven't tried it

 the new method.

 Thanks for being a jerk, man.

 As for accuracy, it depends on your playing style. I'm trying not to 
 go crazy with characters, but currently I have three, with 65%, 45%, 
 and 40% respectively. The 65% is me actually playing as me, meaning I 
 never, ever shoot without thinking I'd hit, because it attracts 
 zombies and makes me unsure of what's going on for a second. I'm 
 weird, in that I'm already enjoying the roleplay.

Hi che.

That's great news! I've wondered what's happened to rr recently as last time 
I tried the online option didn't seem to be working, and frankly I've always 
found the track editer a bit of a pain.


Having a demo for people to create and race tracks is a great idea I think 
and should bring more people into playing the game.


Let me know as soon as it's ready and I'll update the rr page on 
audiogames.net and also post some news.


All the best,

Dark.

Hi Che.
This is great news. Will the registration system change too? I gave up
on RR the last time because the system kept telling me I was not
registered and I went through about three keys.

That sounds rather cool che
If there is anything I can do if you need something tested I can do that.
On that note, I don't mean to complain but due to crashes etc, over 
the last few months, resulting in os reinstalls, my product id has changed.
I am not sure how many people are effected but the licence activation 
servers have been down for a long time, not that I could use my old 
licence for my system anyway.
I have not been abled to play my purchaced game for a year or so now

I can't wait for the new interfaces though.

2011-11-14 Thread shaun everiss

yeah.
My other issue is buying an ide for each system.
I already spent 30 us and thats a lot in nz currency.
I don't really care to buy the game over and over again for each system.
So if the licence can be secured with an account based system or 
something where its harder to get at it then so be it.
Anyway the licence servers failed for some reason last year and I 
have not been able to play the purchaced game in ages, and ages.

Not to mention that bar the tracks it ot quite boring after a while.
