Very good. D/led it last night at 1am and it looks interesting.

No drivers among us then. Give it a try it gets better as you get into it.
Where do you drive monkey? When do you drive? How can I get a car like yours? These and many more question to be answered in the fullness of time

Have to earn the car by winning the race at 1 credit a win and its 180 credits. Have you slept recently Monkey? I have played it but have yet to be able to win against the learners, newbies i can just about do. Havnt gone online yet need to get Gandy to open the port on the router. (me thinks multiple annoying phonecalls should do it) Still have an unneccesary attraction to the tyre barriers though. :?

I seem to be able to drive like mister bean.

I've opened up a port on my router so...Bring it on!

hint: to build up credits fast, set it to "PRO" and then race/win online. You still get points for online wins, and I've got 32+ points in one race happily.

The car skins are found in the data/skins folder. Nor over at bygames is collecting peoples custom skins to release in one big download. They started up a LFS forum even

http://www.bygames.com/community/forums/Fo...sp?forum_id=198

Us [dg] lot were taking to running a server ourselves and bygames are running a server for it. We normally organise to find people to play in irc (#downgraded and #byracing on quakenet) and starting up your own server is real easy

suicidal_monkey · April 28, 2003, 06:56:49 PM

The skins are done from jpg files found in the data/skins directory. maximum size is 1024x1024 I think, but the 640x640 skins look pretty enough

you can d/l my skins here:

lets have a few races at the lan.

JonnyAppleSeed · April 28, 2003, 08:24:26 PM

i like this one http://www.jamena.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/ima...lfs_XR_skin.jpg

and it will be coming to the lan ......good for some car bashing fun :lol:

suicidal_monkey · May 01, 2003, 03:53:13 PM

:roll: yup, its another one...

the 4 skins can be downloaded here:
MG 2002 skin http://www.jamena.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/ima...RT_DG_SM_MG.jpg
red+yellow flames skin http://www.jamena.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/ima...TURBO_DG_SM.jpg
black+white flames skin http://www.jamena.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/ima...es/XR_DG_SM.jpg
GTI skin http://www.jamena.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/ima...XFGTI_DG_SM.jpg

although they all seem to have my name on them somewhere, the MG and XR skins are the least intrusive on you

N.B. remember you can resize the skins on your local machine if you want the MG texture to be512x512 instead of 1024x1024 (for example)

A Twig · May 01, 2003, 06:57:57 PM

MG, niiiiiice

JonnyAppleSeed · May 01, 2003, 07:31:44 PM
