Don't forget about turn on NumLock :)

You can modify world.cnf file (i.e. change map filename).
Program is not optimized yet, and need about 1000MHz CPU to work well.

If you can make, or you have any models (may by very simple) of race tracks
in file formats accepted by 3DStudio MAX - please give me one for test
purposes, I don't know 3ds, and I can't do nice track myself.

Wow! I gotta say that with what you have right now, I'm impressed. It
actually responds much like a vehicle (from what I could tell).

I only have one recommendation to make this a bit more playable, that it
is (I think) a roof or chase camera. Also throw in a boundry so we won't
fall off of the terrain. ;)

But all in all, I like what I see. Honestly, I can't wait to see what
you're going to do with it. Congratulations on a fine piece of work,
Tomasz. :)

I am doing my best :)

I know - such cameras are implemented now, but it is very diffcult to drive
my car without seeing front wheels :)
I must paint a cabin interior with steering wheel first, then cameras could
make sense.
Other thing is track graphics - now view from interior is very incurious -
green ground, blue sky :)

Making track model is my major trouble now - I don't know any 3d software
tool, I hope that somebody will help me with track.

Thank You :)

Very nice, made some headway since I last tried it.
I want to drive from inside the car with a wheel :D
