This does look quite nice, although I got more of an Outrun feel when I watched the vids above.

I do like the way that the crowd are only about 10 metres behind the finish line. That car's got some bloody awesome brakes!! :D

I reckon that I'll be downloading this for my Pi very soon!!

this is just too cool :pint:

Amiga Racer Arcade Machine!


if anyone has any suggestions please email the developer (Mike) at the link in the 1st post. He's a very nice guy to talk to and I'm sure he'll appreciate your suggestions :-)

cool vid! thanks for sharing & I it's great that a 68k version is the works :-)

good news from the Amiga Racer developer Mike :

"Amiga Racer Version 2.9c is available for download/update.
This version includes a lot of bugfixes, also the problem that some machines with AmigaOS4 could not reach the first checkpoint when using ARCS has been addressed."

Also, AmigaTec / Amiga Racer will be present at the GamesCom 2016 in Cologne.
We will have our own Amiga Booth there and showing Amiga Racer on several systems including the Amiga Racer Arcade machine. There will be also news about the new 68k game that gets developed besides Amiga Racer. Of course we will take pictures and videos from that event and we will share it with people that have supported us with donations so far! "

yet another update from the developer :-)

just a short info that Amiga Racer Version 3.3e is available.

Couple of fixes, including the Mercedes is now fully animated (rotating wheels, working breaking lights)

Mike :-)

Any news on a Mac version ?

and yet another update v3.72, that brings us the tournament mode (like in the original Lotus series) and a new track- enchanted forest

Man this looks awesome, reminds me of Crusin' USA / Crusin' World / Crusin' Exotica :great

Please, please, please make an AGA port for the majority of Amiga users :agree

simulation - 320x240, 64 colors:

Looks good to me s2325 :agree

Youtube vids look cool. Looks like lotus engine is used?

Nope. It's a new SDL engine developed from scratch.

and yet another update today that incorporates online-highscore leaderboard for the tournament raceshttp://www.amiga.org/forums/images/smilies/hammer.gif

I wish there would be an option to change the view and to move car more down the screen:)

Looks better to me :)
It gives me a warmer feeling. Original looks a bit cold and artificial and too much crispy for my taste.

another update: btw, in this version I noticed a bug on the gas button where it intermittently stops working and I have to press the button again to get acceleration back, I've reported this already so hopefully it gets fixed soon.


----------------------------------------



Amiga Racer Version 3.93 Update available! This update includes now a smart information system (including version checking system), so it will alert you automatically when there is a new version available! You can then directly press Space (or Firebutton) to autoupdate or press Cancel (ESC) and update later within the Game Menu Live Updater. The game will also remind you now if you are driving with the generic Collector's Edition Elite key that you should register your name for all online tournament functionality. I saw in the server logfiles that quite a lot of people driving the Online Tournament with the generic key. Once you have purchased the Collector's Edition Elite (or the Collector's Edition Online) you can easily request (for free) your personalized keyfile to join Online Highscore in the tournament.

Just wondering, have all these cars officially been licensed or do we run the risk that they all have to go in a future version...
