I'm a bit unsure of what you mean...
this is just a changing camera angle, not curves in the road.

Thanks . And yes, it's running in 6 MHz. It's fast though because I had to make it move many pixels at a time to get the perspective right. For example, it is moving only one pixel at a time at the horizon, while it is moving 6 or so at the closest point towards you. I could make it move slower, but the edges of the road would look more jagged, and if I made the edges less jagged it would move too fast. I tried to compromise in terms of speed and appearance.

Here's a program to test the method of drawing that I want to implement. It does start to get glitchy when the road is shifted too far over, but I don't think the car will be going that far off the track .

That's the one thing that's getting to me... I'm not sure how I'd pull that off.
Also DJ, how did you pull off hills? Because it seems like it will be pretty hard to accomplish.

lol that's awesome

So, right now the engine is in the planning stages. Looking at Project Omega, I could see that the road was made of many different sprites, which did look very nice. Now, this is fine for xLib (actually it's probably the only way to do this in xLib), but I think that if a racing game were to be made in Axe it would not be the best method to use sprites for this (scenery is a totally different situation, though). Instead, I am considering drawing the road with lines, going down the screen row by row. Does anybody have any suggestions on other methods I could use?

I actually saw that a couple of days ago, and it helped me get the idea for this game (along with Lotus Turbo Challenge, of course). I figured that if DJ could get that in Xlib, I would at least be able to get a reasonably good racing game done in axe.
