Yeah I wasn't sure if he was officially switching to a sprite, since the most recent gif still showed a 3D car. I brought it back up in case.

I think that he first works on the hardest parts of his game (making the 3D engine work perfectly) before working on easy parts (make the player a sprite). This would be why the player is still a cube :)

new screenshot showing the bad and glitchy AI:


It isn't finished yet, and I probably won't be able to even create an enjoyable demo in such a short time. What this means is that I probably am not going to participate in the contest, and when I'm sure of that, I'll make this project open-source, but will still continue working on it.

I just didn't have enough time with the exams in june, and my work in july. Too bad, because I really wanted to know how my programming skills compare to the rest here on omnimaga, and more importantely, if I could do better than last place.

I will keep working on it, but progress will be a bit slower because I'll also work on my java game again.

cool java game. Did you do your own engine and/or textures?

I did make the textures myself, but I downloaded the engine (it's jMonkeyEngine).

I don't know whether you're aware or not, but bcall(_dispHL) is really slow. If you want to see some numbers for debugging, you should definitely write your own routine to display the numbers (bcall(_putS) is OK in this situation, but eliminating that would be even better)

For displaying stuff in the final version (like laps, position etc), I will write my own routine, and probably use sprites for it instaed of the standard numbers. However for debugging purposes, I did it the easy way. And with dispHL, I also know for sure that it's working. But it does cause a noticable slowdown.

Yeah i don't think there is any issue with using dispHL simply for debugging ^^ Also I'm glad this is still being worked on even if it didn't ake the contest entry :D

I know this is a necropost, but I just wanted to let you guys know that I'm working on this again.
It's a complete recode, and now it uses axe and GLib, instead of assembly and my own engine. Because of this reason, it is now again in a very early stage, but I'll give you guys a screenshot anyway:

As you see in the screenshot, I've let out the diagonal lines and used simpeler, clearer models. And I think it actually looks better that way. And the models are smaller and faster this way too.

There is still a lot of work to do, but the speed is good (20fps at 6MHz, the previous version ran at 18fps at 15MHz in it's final stage), which should enable me to put some more stuff.

Spoiler For Some technical details:
The visible area supported by the current map renderer is 16 by 16 tiles, and tiles are 32 by 32 units. This makes the visible area 512 units large, or (since the tilemap will be centered around the player to prevent overflows) 256 units in every direction. In the screenshots, the road used there is 16 units wide.
The tilemap contains models as tiles, and each tile can be elevated between 0 and 255 units (based on a heightmap). Overlapping roads will be done by having a special tile that represents a bridge.
At the start (and in the future: when the tilemap is moved/updated), the tilemap is converted to one big model that represents the entire visible area. Because of this, models can have a different, smaller format (only 3 bytes per vertex, instead of 6) witouth slowing down the rendering. The code that generates that big model is still rather fast, and it still gets 17fps when it's generated every frame. This will be slower in future versions, though, but it also won't run evrey frame.
The rest is still only planned, and thus lickely to change.

that's nothing: See my 3 years revival with Supersonic Ball :P.

Anyway this looks very promising. I hope you can make it better and faster graphically than GlassCars on ticalc.org.
