VDrift 2-15-09 Release - joevenzon - 02-16-2009
I finished up work on the critical issues and would like to make a VDrift release with the new refactored code. I know there are still some issues, but there are a lot of improvements since the last release. I uploaded a linux source release and a windows installer to sourceforge. Hopefully someone can help out with an OSX release.
Let me know if there are any issues, comments, etc....

It´s not easy to describe: the F1-02 feels to have more grip, better controlable. Maybe it´s better driftable. The instability is gone. Only at Nuerburgring, Flugplatz , is a little instability at full speed downhill.
Some remarks: The Grip offroad is "very" good. Turning around and touching the railgard the car mostly remains an the track.
So far my first impressions. Thanks joe and abs1nth for the mac-release!
UPDATE: Nuerburgring/F1-02 about 5:30! The mystrious track-bumps are gone.

I thought the problem was hard-coded "/", but then I created folders "My Games\VDrift" under "My Documents" and it started.Code:Couldn't open log file: C:\Documents and Settings\User\My Documents\My Games\VDrift/log.txt
Thanks for this info... VDrift was automatically creating the VDrift folder but only if "My Games" already existed. I updated the exe so now it will automatically create My Games if it doesn't exist and silently replaced the installer on sourceforge with the new version.

Good, I was hoping the refactor would be more stable.
Try setting "camera bounce" to 100% in options->display... I tried to make it look like an F1 helmet cam, but maybe it's a little too jerky sometimes.

@joevenzon
A good idea would be a Wikipage for that realease, growing as necessary. Changes and bugs
A Question: did you change the suspension-model (geometry and spring) in this release?

All of the car physics code was rewritten. Some of it was based heavily on the existing code, other parts (like suspension geometry) was written from scratch. Adjusting the hinge placement should now properly affect anti-squat and anti-dive.

is there a related crash-log? the path would be:
/Users/***/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/
- joevenzon - 02-21-2009
Try setting shaders=off in the file /Users/***/Library/Preferences/VDrift/VDrift.config
- abs1nth - 02-22-2009
possibly the old crash that resulted of using the opengl 2.0 shader functions on hardware that only supports opengl 1.3 + shader extensions sneaked back in in the refactor....
