RoR 0.24 is out
Another update! Now this one features:
- 3D cockpit! With a 3D dashboard and wheel. Right now, only the wheel is functional, no dashboard needles. I'm working on that. In internal cam mode, you can turn the head with the usual camera controls.
- External rear view mirrors. The mirrors are not functional yet, but this makes the trucks looking better.
- Transparent windows. Now the transparent windows are easier to design and artefact-free. So all the trucks have transparent windows now.
- Lights on all the trucks.
- Serious optimization that will give better framerate for slow 3D cards and in advanced water modes.
And thanks to all the fans!

Fantastic update. The Drivers eye view is great, and the auto center of the camera by just pressing 5 on the numpad is just what I was going to request.
Thanks alot.

If we made skins/vehicles for .23 can we use em on .24?

If you want to use skins of 0.23, you have to pick the alpha channel of the new 0.24 texture and put it in you old texture, or else there won't be transparent windows.

Some release ago someone said that he/she was willing to do a linux port.
Any idea if there is any develompent in that area?
New release looks good, maybe I'm going to reboot and trying in win32 today.

Well, the code is evolving fast, and tracking Linux and MacOS versions would be too time consuming now. I also want to keep a tight control of the code until I decide how I licence it.
But be assured that I take care of using only multiplatform libraries in order to ease porting to other platforms (the only exception being the joystick/force feedback that binds directly to DirectX).

just downloaded RoR-0.24.zip and cant extract it: "archive seems to be broken"
Filesize is 24.147.417 Bytes and
24.150.016 Bytes "on disc"
I'll try again!

Thanks Pricorde, I'll have to check it out. What program did you use to make that RoR video?
4/4/06 01:34
Your archive size seems to be OK. Maybe you unzipper is a bit flaky?
gearstix: I used Fraps to make the video.

Bah! the ramp to the big boat is mest up and to the little boat is a glitch so u can unload to it...And an nice ide if u could do an timber truck with a hook on it so u could load logs =)

Don't download the file with Flashget. It corrupted my archive too. Try to download it using normal windows downloader.
Don't know about other managers, but Flashget isn't suitable for this download.

James,
Good idea the adjustable rear view mirrors! I think this won't be difficult to do once the mirrors work.
For the rain, I think I will try to do a night mode before rain.
But this is just eye candy. I have some ideas of dirt simulation to test first. This could open a whole world of possibilities (backhoes, dozers...).

Yeah! keep up the good work Pricorde! =)

its good work on the intera tho

Hey!
Great game, I must say...for a long time in my life I was waiting for truck simulator like this one...
Here's a couple sugestions:
- wider and flater roads (it's hard to keep the truck on the road...especially with the semi)
- manual gearshift
- a controllable camera mode to make easy to lock the semi
Keep up the good work!
