i was just wondering if there are any tracks out there where the cars can jump off the top af a slope or something like that.

i think it would be a good idea and lots of fun if somebody made a track like that. if one already doesn't exist

geoff crammond made a game called stuntcar racer, which basically was a car driving around a rollercoaster layout of a track, it was tremendous fun!!

if he was to do a sequal i'm sure it would go down a treat ( like ulrika johnson)


it featured jumps and ski slope type straights, some of them made you feel queezy when launching off of them.

that was back inm hte heady day of the amiga, and the forefront of 3d race games, if you were to see it now you'd probably laugh at it

but back then it was like virtual reality


c'mon geoff make a sequal!!

G'day all...

I have a game called "whiplash" that hasn't been touched off my shelf for the past 2 odd years.... I only remember it now cos of the fact it's a game with loops and stuff in the tracks, and huge jumps...tremendous fun!

G'day all..

Also, my only experience of the track editor resulted in me making an enormous several hundred metre drop in Spain. This was a fair while back, but it was very very very funny when you put it in director's mode and the camera was at the base of the cliff, giving you an underside view of 22 cars flying off at ridiculous speeds.

i have a game called powerslide you are on a bobsleigh track and then at the very end you come on to a ski jump and try to get the furthest jump. its a good game graphics wise but the handling is pretty awful.....

cheers

There`s a part at the Soume Yemick track(halfway through it) where you can jump a bit if you get a slipstream. Not too much, because if you do, it goes straight into the fences.
Switch on the "undestructible car"-aid when you drive over the highest point of the Reims track. Maybe then you can continue driving after vaulting backwards. Take a slipstream or drop your front wing first....
