No-one can possibly do most of a racing sim on their own these days, can they? Someone should tell Geoff Crammond that, as he doesn't seem to have noticed.... :-) -- David.

ah yes... Looks like another project which he will never be able to finish... What does he try to accomplish? Nowadays tribes of people are working full time on a game... What does he think he can do alone with his few 'parttimers'? -- Sjon TRUSRS85 <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > http://members.xoom.com/_XMCM/paulhoad/glGP/index.html > > Open Gl Open source racing sim > > he has an early beta available also

I have to agree with James here, at least he his having ago. It may take hoads of programmers to write games these days, but I also feel a few dedicated people with enough interest in what they are doing can achieve amazing results. I seem to remember reading that some new sim is being written by two people, it may end up being another game or it may end up being something very special but at least they have the guts to give it ago.

Previous problems were trying to decode the work of companies that would not provide any assistance. Which is undestandable. However this is his project from the start. Easier to finish a project if you have access to ALL of the parts! buzard "Sjon Stigter" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:8btptd$pv5$[email hidden]...

No need to try anything. Just open up that can of beer and sink into your favourite couch and ask the wife to change the TV channels for you. Aagh to uninspired even to finish this senten.. -Juha -- //[email hidden]

I know there were at least two other open source racing sim projects started but I know one and possibly both fizzled out. Unfortunatly I lost both bookmarks after my last drive format. Anyway good luck to Paul Hoad and anyone else who gets involved in the project!
