Who needs Driv3r when you have this incredible game? We can finally make our own Driver game, with proper multiplayer support!

You could make it so the water jugs go flying everywhere when you crash into them, like in Super Runabout or that scene in The Rock.
Wow! Never thought about this. It should be awesome.
I hope you won't have any trouble finding reference material for it.

with your great gameengine, couldn't you "re-do" Driver 1 and 2?
That would be awesome, because my f**cking PC can't launch these games and my sister kidnapped my PS2...
:?:
I'll think about fork compatible with Driver 1 PC or Driver 2 levels.

I played like 2 hours in one session! My only problem is it runs on slow motion on my i3 2gb RAM laptop from 2010.

Otherwise, it's great! (Y)

Hey! It's been so long since I've visited Driver Madness. I think this game looks amazing and I'm glad to see how far this project has come along.

I've always wanted to start a career working on indie projects. Now I don't exactly know what I can offer, but I'd love to help if you need it. Not sure what skills I can bring to the table but if there's anything you think I could help with phrase let me know. I could even do a trailer lol.

Good luck and happy new year :)

Can you send me a mdmp file (near log file) if you have which I can analyze?

Did you tried to change settings (is an in-game menu)?
Intel HD Graphics should run fine only in non-hd modes, by default game starts in 1280x720 windowed.

Anyway, the game was not optimized well.

Oh I have an ATI Graphics. Changing the settings didn't improve the performance. btw it only happens when the camera is not facing towards buildings or map.

Hi I fixed the problem. I replaced rio_bus script file content between mustang file and problem solved. Great police chases :) do you need vehicle models or buildings I can send fbx and obj models?

As long as they fit the art style.
Soap, I forgot to mention - the Torino and Chevelle Laguna SS models are amazing. Please, don't remove the slotted mags from them. Hell, give every vehicle slotted mags.
Also - some cool keybinds figured out for you guys, courtesy of Carluver69/Mark....although, they're also in the read me.
O - freezes time
I - freecam
L - honk horn
M - change carcol
H - sirens (for the Regis, eventually the ambulance and fire truck)
Also, I dare you to type "g_car tank_rollo" into the console, then restart in the pause menu. :lol:

I'm having an issue where the game does not even start and does absolutely nothing but still shows up in the task manager.
Here are my specs:
- i5 4690K
- ASUS GeForce GTX 960 2 GB
- ASUS Motherboard
- Windows 7 64-Bit

Please look at /logs folder, you'll find Game_<username>.log in there. Can you show me that?

would it help you Soap? It's supposed to be Tanner's Challenger form DSF.

That is cool!
Also you'll need a extra verts/polygons for the damaged variant, bones, shape keys, etc. If you have deal with Blender, this could be done without any problems.
I'll post model SDK here later. It contains vehicle example with texture PSD source, Blender 2.5x plugin and model compiler for my engine.

That's the odd thing, I told him to check there last night and there was no log.

You need to install Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 x86 redistributable
