also, about speed, IMHO he should not make it go way too fast either. Maybe twice faster at most, due to the high framerate, but not more, else it will be way too fast. This was one of the only gripe I had about F-Zero on the TI-89, altough it seemed worse on TI-89 due to the much lower framerate and cars being so incredibly huge that they blocked your view

Yeah I had fun with photofiltre studio :P

Kinda like a parody of how big the cars were in F-Zero 68k. They were not THAT huge, though. :P

EDIT: I updated the pic for more lulz

Well, I added 64x64 map support! ;D And I got the rendering engine to run at exactly the same speed as 32x32. Plus, it's way more flexible now about where I can store the tilemap - instead of aligning to the nearest 4KB, now I only have to align to 256 bytes. :)

And of course, here's a screenshot (Firefox recommended)


In case anyone is wondering, I haven't created any AI way-points for this track yet.

Really cool. Now that is a track that almost makes play F-zero on GBA.

The speed looks intense. :)

*ztrumpet is on Internet Explorer.

No way! That's not full speed! That's amazing.  I can't wait to see more progress.

Amazing progress.

Calc84, you have made so many great games! Good luck to all the unfinished ones too.

Very nice!! I can't wait for this to come out!  Fzero was the one game I have been looking forward to completion since my joining of Omnimaga! ^^

Out of curiosity, do you have enough speed to use your object system to add in things like shrubs and/or trees for example?   Just a question, looks awesome enough as it it ;D

Well, I added a simple lap counter. Also, I made the split-screen support more flexible, which could lead to some nice effects before and after the race. :)

Is it Nspire compatible?

If I recall correctly, it is supposed to be, but with the recent updates, I don't know if it broke it

It should be - I haven't sent it to my Nspire lately though.
