MM2 Race Maker

Postby aaro4130 » Sun Mar 30, 2014 8:28 pm

Yup you heard right!

Includes standard tools like move, rotate, scale, etc. and can load waypoints from existing races/crash courses/etc.

Instructions:

Code: Select all

RaceMaker Pre-Alpha. Instructions : Unpack your Midtown Madness 2 to C:\RaceMaker\, also create a directory called "export". Unpack RaceMaker to anywhere, and run it! Preferably in a 1024x768 resolution or higher. (So all GUI elements are visible) In fullscreen, press ALT+F4 to exit, For now there are no AI path support in the program.

This was really needed. If the in-game result is always exactly like the 3D view of the program, due to it is got lot of time saving in checkpoints placing, especially the height and the rotating. Great work. :)

BTW, see to post a download link for your edited SDLView program version.

Tomorrow I'll release a patch that addresses a lag issue, as well as adds a "Main Menu" button, and will also introduce keyboard keys to end moving/scaling/rotation, e.g. for laptops , no middle click to stop movement

[Maybe an INST patch soon btw]

Good idea, it will be amazingly easier to make races now. Hopefully you can get to support AI paths in future.

Good fixes there. Noticed that on the city simulation, we've main menu option working which is a good thing.

I wonder if you can make the RaceMaker generate codes when placed a checkpoint during the simulation, like in MM1 Race Editor.

Also, wondering if it will have an "open file" option in which we can open the .opp files or exported files. Those features would make it even cool.
