D@mn thats good for pure vb. I couldn't
do much better with API or even DX 8.0
(Only coz Im still trying to figure it
out). And yes ok I'll give you a vote
since you seem to want one so much! ;)

7/21/2001 10:16:49 AM:md
...or you could just let the users give
you an excellent rating

Very Good Coding, the last engine i saw
was huge. One problem is the
sensitivity of the keys (eg, if i tap
right, i turn 90 degrees!). I expect
you've heard this beore, but textures
and materials would be nice, but they
will slow this down!
|
7/21/2001 10:31:05 AM:Daniel Davies
Oh, i see you included collision
detection? the opponent rammed into my
boat, not were glued, and i cannot move
an inch! 4 Globes :D
|
7/21/2001 12:22:14 PM:DeadFred
Hmm. I didn't belive you, and then I
played again, and got stuck in about 30
seconds. :-( Ah well, considering that
the collosion detection to 30 secs to
code, and I didn't even test it really,
what do you expect. Still, if you think
you can do better, you try it. I'm not
trying to be nasty. Honestly, try and
make a better one. Thats why I made the
engine the way I did, so anyone can use
it, and make games real quick and
easy.
|
7/21/2001 1:30:12 PM:DeadFred
Apparently you all hate this game!!! I
like it, and thats what matters. I just
updated it to fix the collosion
problem. Much better collisions now,
plus a touch of colour, the other boat
is different from yours, your boats
cause ripples, theres a camara tower in
the middle of the track, and you can
use F1 to F4 to change your
views.
With effects as cheesy as
these, who can resist its charm and
inocence?
|
7/21/2001 3:41:33 PM:SeeD
ok - this is not beginner level. this
is quite advanced and i'm having a
tough time trying to analyze it w/out
many comments. I'd greatly appreciate
it if you'd comment more on it. I'd
like to learn as much as I could from
this! By The Way, it's excellent. You
surely deserve credit and a pat on the
back!

7/21/2001 6:49:18 PM:bazee
Hey this is kewl, u get my vote!
|
7/21/2001 11:11:34 PM:Digitronix
Impressive. Certainly, you know your
math.
|
7/22/2001 10:35:49 AM:Soh Wei Yu
great code..makes me wonder how much
time u had already spent on this?
|
7/22/2001 9:34:39 PM:Gary Staunton
Excellent rating from me. It's pretty
cool. Hope this doesn't mean that you
are not going to keep up the good work
if you win COTM?
|
7/24/2001 1:04:06 AM:Nathan Chere
One blaringly obvious bug- when you go
through the finish line it increments
Borris's lap counter, and when he goes
through it increments yours.
Amazing
code regardless, 5 globes.

7/24/2001 2:56:19 PM:DeadFred
It took me ages to figure out why I was
always loosing! Hmm, the labels are in
the wrong place. Thanks for the nice
comments, and while it may seem I'm
just putting the same engine on loads
of times, I am improving it, and am
always looking to make it faster and
better. I'm makeing an F1 racing game,
with some impovements over this boat
game, and the engine should be abit
faster. I know alot of you are waiting
to see if I can shade the faces. Well
don't expect solid faces any time soon,
thought I will one day...
|
7/25/2001 5:35:29 PM:Kevin
DeadFred
something is wrong in
Faster.bas
TempMorph(N).Scale.X =
World(WorldID).Morph(N).Scale.X
TempMorph(N).Scale.Y =
World(WorldID).Morph(N).Scale.Y
TempMorph(N).Scale.Z =
World(WorldID).Morph(N).Scale.Z
that
peice of code gives me an invalid
syntax error...
why..?
please fix
it...
or just send me the EXE
i cant
get any of your games to work
|
7/25/2001 5:48:33 PM:Kevin
i simply took out the peice of bad code
and presto!
all good
anyways you
should sell animation shop and A ocx
along with it for programmers wanting
to use it in there programs...
it
would be very useful
i need a tutorial
for running the module
if somone could
cook it up i would be thankful
i think
i know how to make something move but
im not sure and i wanna make a virtual
pet
this would be VERY GOOD for a
virtual pet
yet again if anyone can
cook up a tutorial or just some kind of
reference file
i would be fery
thankful
my email is
kevinmf89@hotmail.com

7/29/2001 4:07:58 PM:Pete
WHAT!!!!!!! This is the most crazy
program I have ever seen. Why not use
DirectX8 instead of all those
Lines(This works in two ways) of
code.
It's really interesting
though, if only I was playing this on
my old laptop. Seeing how when I turn I
literally do a 360 * 9 LOL!
Still, I
give this a "Good" rating!
|
8/5/2001 2:16:52 PM:DeadFred
I'm gonna put out one last version of
this engine in a few days, or a week,
which will contain a pretty large help
file, showing exatly how this works,
and a step by step guide to building a
3D game with it. I've just about done
the guide (15 pages+). I'll finish it
this week while i'm sitting on my áss
at work getting paid :-). I've already
dun some improvemnts to the engine, i'm
just gonna finish face cliping, and
then give it to ya
|
8/25/2001 2:40:51 AM:gh0ul
dude.... this is really cool.. it's so
freaking fast it's difficult. I had to
slow the engine dow to pay it! Very
nice VB implementation. Consider a new
version..... one with texture and
background. Very nice, keep up the good
work.
|
8/29/2001 4:15:47 PM:El Bunglé
not bad burgess, but turn the steering
sensitivity down dude!
|
8/29/2001 4:20:36 PM:Bungle
nice one burgess, the arrow is helpful
but the track could be a bit more
obvious. put marker buoys in or summat!
|
10/9/2001 12:13:57 PM:Fred
Genuinely that is a very impressive
peice of code! But I don't know how
you expect us to believe that you wrote
it in 2 hours! There are over 600
lines of code there. That's like 5
lines every minute!
|
10/9/2001 9:46:32 PM:Ross
Impressive. Very Impressive. This has
got the be the smoothest running game
I've ever seen before! It's so small
and simple, yet so acurate it's scary.
You got my vote. Good Work!
|
12/22/2001 7:35:39 AM:DeadFred
Not like anyones bothered now, but when
I say I wrote it in 2 hours, I only
wrote the code in the Form, not the
Module. Writing the module took ages,
but it is so self contained and easy to
use that you can just add it to a
project and have a 3D engine up and
running in minutes
|
12/25/2001 8:24:29 AM:John Galanopoulos
This is by far the most cool 3d engine
i ve ever seen in VB. 5g man.
|
12/25/2001 11:44:49 AM:Shawn N
This is VB? Wow!
Nice work and
everything, but since this is
open-source - that's what really is on
the table.
No comments (especially
on a project this big), no option
explicit on your form, and some of your
module's paramaters are not passed as
explicit types.
Other than that,
this is like the best demonstration of
math and coolest projects I've seen on
this site.
Way to go$!$!% MERRY
CHRISTMAS
<3 Shawn
|
12/25/2001 4:39:06 PM:Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas and Great game! But, on
your comment that this is the first 3d
racer, there was one called eRacer3d
that did fantastic on this site...
Might wanna check it out.

12/25/2001 8:50:03 PM:Robbo
Great program!!
Been trying to email
you but it appears your email has been
shut down. So Fred if your still around
could you please email me at:
robbo_f@hotmail.com
thanks

Dude you are the Master Coder... This
code is excelent... Do you got any
tutorials about this code, I'm very
interested in 3D engine and this code
is a very good for a start

keep up the good work!

Whoa!!! Great code! One problem i
found... a glitch! if you go in the
exact opposite direction the arrow
says, all these objects appear around
you, including the computer player, and
when the objects all show up (the
finish line is the last object to show
up) and you turn left, all the gates
appear in a row, the level is
linear(can't move side to side) and
then to get out you just spin around.
Could someone help me with this?
|
6/17/2003 1:04:27 PM:Justin W.
Your coding is great and all, but it
would of been alot better if you would
have just used DX instead. It is hard
to see where you are going.
