Just watched knoxville nationals, Come on Sierra let's make a World of Outlaws using the GPL engine. Do it before someone ruins it's concept of a so called sim. Anybody else along with this idea?

If you pick up ABC Indy Racing - The Road To Indy sim, make sure you pick up my "Gasoline Alley" steering editor. This game was one patch away from greatness, IMO. The Eldora track is fun, but the steering is horrible, and my editor only helps to a certain degree. I can give you some more tips on how to improve on it, f you decide to give it a try.

I second the motion ...don't care who does it, but I think a World of Outlaws sim would be a big hit. The thought of force feedback and a physics model that lets you feel the sensation of running down the front straight with one (or both) front wheels in the air would be a dream come true. It would also create a whole new class of game controllers ...someone would have to come up with a lever so you can adjust the wing at 140 mph. We'd need another button for tearaways when the mud builds up on your visor ... and knee braces to keep your feet on the pedals ...perhaps a highs speed fan to blow dirt and *** fumes into your face too ...<grin> In article <C7rt3.2536 Sierra let's make a World of someone ruins it's concept of a Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Share what you know.

I'm all for it. If they build it we will buy it!!!

hey guys.. just checking, but doesn't Sierra/Papyrus already have the physics / foundations set for a World of Outlaws Sprint car game?? Just take a look at S.O.D.A. Off-Road Racing.. You can 'broadslide' / powerslide on there!! They already have the Dirt sliding surface physics in the game. They can work from there!!

Doesn't Sierra / Papyrus already have a basis for the physics / foundation for World of Outlaw type Sprint Car Racing?? I believe if you take a look at S.O.D.A. Offroad Racing, you'll see they have the 'broadsliding / powersliding' technique of the Sprint Cars already started with their buggy, 4 X 4 and pickup, am I right on that guys? Brian
