Ummm, Ok so I start the game click enter or the mouse key and then the game just starts... The car is going backwards and I can hardly control it. I have no idea what is going on. The first time I ran it it just crashed. Second time this is the behaviour. Then I ended up crashing into a wall and loosing my trunk hood a few seconds later magically appeared back where I started only now with some weird thing on the hood of my car... Almost looked like a kayak.. still driving backwards. I try pressing up key,w ect nothing happens. I can steer tho very little while traveling backwards tho. Sorry wish I had something good to say but its just not working for me.
Ok I realized that pressing Q blows the trunk off and restarts me back on the track. Is that suppose to happen?
Still keeps going backwards tho no matter what I do . I tried restarting it a few times but same thing.

Hi, To control the car use the arrows keys Up engine power left / right = direction. back = brakes Space = hand brakes 5 - turn on the gun, 5 again change the kind of fire of gun Ctrl - fire Shift NO2 - you get it geting the frogs on the road L - Lift Q - restart. F5 change screen size F6 - screenshot ESC - exit 1 - 2 change car skin 3 - change car interior color 4 change pilot cloth R - change road skin (just for test.) H = horm C- camera (just the cam 2 are done, the other are in the build, but can bet used for test) a new verion of this demo here http://www.drivetohell.com/uploads/demo10.zipIn the start menu, just start and exit are working, the other options are in the build proccess. Best regards, Marcio

LOL, OOOOPS! Ok figured out what the problem was ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif) Seems I forgot I had my controller plugged in and it was laying on the floor which is what was causing it to continue to travel backwards no matter what I pressed ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif) The cars a little hard to control by the keyboard but driving with the controller seems to be alot easier. I like the new menu but I now kind of miss the Q restarting me back on the track where I began. Prehaps add a reset button so that when I go off track I can just jump back to it with the press of a button. The cars colors when 2 is pressed still leaves the trunk orange Is that suppose to be like that. I assume its still just a test. Are you going to make the controls configurable? I think you should as I dont really like the set up as is but im sure other may. As I said its very promising keep at it.

well i think the game looks ok, now for some c&c:
there seems to be too low of an fps problem, where is this caused from? maybe the particle effects have too many at a time or something, this should be fixed. I like the effects on your car and stuff, the pc i own isn't that great, but if i have a big problem on a store bought pc, then most gamers will also have these problems. you want to optimize the game to run at a decent speed on off the shelf pc's. in 640x480 i got a playable framerate, until it tried to add some more particle effects. you need to have a good framerate of at least 60 when in 1025x768, if you have a frame limit set, try playing the game without any frame limiter, you may get a better framerate. altogether the game looks good, but make sure that all particle effects aren't creating 20 at a time, or you will have unstable framerate. you want a good solid playable framerate.

i agree, you need a reset button like nfs hot pursuit had, this way you could reset on the road really easy, it would add to the fun, plus i agree with cartoon_baboon, it is way too easy to end up off the road or on your back, but this game reminds me of demolition racer

@Manslayer101 Hi, I reduce the particles and won much more FPS. Thank you for the sugestion. ![](http://img213.imageshack.us/img213/2320/shot7yd7.th.jpg) Before with the normal old particles amount this level work with 29 to 35 FPS in 1280x1024 in the GS panel, now, it work from 45 to 75. I reduce too the car polys, I think it help too this FPS. Best regards, Marcio
