Been a month since I posted again...
But, the beta release should be done today! I'll update this post with some screenshots and a link to the release when it's up. It'll be uploaded on RapidShare.com, so if anyone has a problem with it, post a comment with a better place to upload it and I'll upload it there. The release should be around 10 MB.
Apocalypse reported that the bumpmaps messed up the game on his computer, if you have the same problem (everything looks weird) you can download this and replace the original exe, you can also do this if for some reason you suspect the bumpmaps kill your graphics card:

Now that that's done, here are some instructions since I didn't bother writing a readme file for this one, since I have to name it freesex.txt for anyone to read it anyway. I'll just post the information here:
Alright, now that I got your attention, here's how to play the game:
W, A, D, S keys - Driving around
Space key - Handbrake
F2 - Put the car back on it's wheels and lift it up a bit
F3 - Reset the car completely
F5 - Hide the snowy trees, after all it's summer
F6 - Turn off the lights
The gears are automatic, so don't worry about them.
That just about covers it, and if you're into editing games, you can just open up the carconfig.cfg, config.cfg and objects.cfg files in notepad and edit all you want, you can just about edit anything in the game, or add/remove stuff.
What's new:
First of all, the game is completely reprogrammed since my old code was getting too messed up, now uses Newton v1.53.
Parts now fall off the car when you crash it, you can set how hard you have to smash the part before it falls off in the carconfig.cfg file.
You can now select a car in my extremely advanced Menu v2, which uses state of the art technology to render a bitmap as background, and some text where you select car!
A lot more to edit in the carconfig file, including the car's HP.
Now the game uses a gearbox, not a single gear.
Car physics are a lot better, not as jittery.
Particle effects, including smoke trails after the car.
A speedometer that doesn't work, that I forgot to remove before release...
Probably a lot more, but that's all I can think of right now!
When, what, how, where is next update gonna be?
Next update will be all about graphics, I know it's almost as good looking as can be, but I'll try to make it look a bit more realistic, if possible! I don't have any date set, of course, it'll come out when I've had enough days that I haven't been lazy on, to write all the stuff that needs to be written, you'll know because I'll keep you updated here, and I'll also release it here when it finally is done... Also, the Opel Ascona rallydriver is working on will probably be in the release, depending on how much inspiration he has!
Thanks to:
I'd like to thank the following, without them this release would be 2015 or something instead:
Julio Jerez for Newton, and the people on the forums!
Nikolaus Gebhardt for Irrlicht everyone who's contributed to it, on the forums and otherwise!
Rallydriver, without you they'd be driving around in boxes instead of cars. :P
Sascha Willems, you helped me when I had a few problems with the hinge joint!
Walaber, all your posts on the Newton forums have helped me with numerous problems I've run into, thanks for posting like crazy.
Coca-Cola Company, helped me concentrate during those long nights of programming!
Google, what would I do without you?
Blogger.com, nice easy place to put this stuff on!
Thanks, and since I'm likely not to post again for a month or so, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone!
