Natio Demo is out, Enjoy! - 02/20/05 03:02

Due to all of the requests for a demo for Natio, I finally put one together. You can download it here:
Natio Demo - 34.4mb - unzip and run "setup.exe" to install.
In this version you can only buy 1 of the 9 cars available and only race Easy races in the random race catagory. If you decide that you like Natio and want to unlock the rest of the game to the full game, all you need to do is order like normal, but I will send you a Key file, that you simply place in the Natio directory, run Natio and click on the button "Unlock Natio!" and type in your corisponding unlock code and thats it, you will now have the full version. You now have a demo you can play around with, let me know what ya think

pluses:
*complete, playable demo of reasonable size with modest requirements
*car customization features
*car and part add-ons/upgrades
*high score posting
*weather conditions (atmosphere)

minuses:
*bugs; see high scores
*racing gameplay is a bit lacking

I obtained all the upgrade parts allowed in the demo + over $3500.

Pretty cool, one thing I thought missing was a peelout effect.

Also, I took the liberty to fix your highscore data, don't know if he was cheating or not.
Check your pms because you should update to prevent that.

Edit*
Also, there may be an error in your cscript, one score had the name doubled up. Possibly due to the a6 string length saving problem(if they loaded saved game then submitted). Update fixes that.

Hey thanks for the replies. I was unable to see the bug in the high scores that you were talking about. When I made this, ultimetly I wanted to have the highscore update a score, rather than post a new one, but thats the only way I can get it to work. Thats why you see lots of the same peoples names with different times, I planned it that way, only for the reason that I was limited and couldn't have it update someones score instead.

poke_smot - I made this using A5 not A6, how is it possible that someone could cheat?

I don't appreciate the insinuation. (Its obvious that the score times of 1 and 2 aren't valid.)
I clearly stated that there appeared to be bugs.
I did not attempt to exploit the posting mechanism.
I played the game normally, just as any user would, and those values were posted.
If invalid values were posted through normal use of the software, then one or more bugs were present.

i played it. The overall look of the game is original
and has potential. However i find the game boring to soon
as it misses a bit of action. Perhaps you could insert ramps and some steering.

keep up the good work

testDummy,
chill man, I was just makeing an observation that I didn't know if you tried cheating. sorry, don't freak.


Manaroy,
I shouldn't have fixed your scores, but left that for you via your control panel. I won't mess with your account again unless you ask me to.
A user could try to cheat because the data isn't encrypted.
In the Hshof update, a md5 hash and password is used to detect altering. If you want to use it, pm me and I'll update your account.(requires the new hshof.wdl)
As for the weird scores, your php is functioning fine.

Your game definatly needs lots more sound effects.
I really like the panel system.
