Re: Old & New Release: C1 Cars

Nice work! BTW Installthing.txt features 2x these lines: 2 // Number of text chunks 5,3 // x,y offset of first line 41,85 // Frame start (incl), end (excl) And that makes Carma95 crash (it didn't on your end?)

Re: Carma gets Hard boiled

Just let them as their own component, no need to group them together or anything. C2 cars can have a myriad of components. With PT2, you must first import the ACT file, it'll then ask for the DAT and MAT files, PT2 will look for the tiff files into the tiffrgb folder. When you save the modifications...

Re: Carma gets Hard boiled

For Plaything2, right-click on the executable, go into properties, then compatibility tab, and check 16 bit colours ("High Color". That should do it.

As for the issue, once again I can't help without having access to the files. If I were you I'd post the files by default.

Ah great that you got it working on your own! And yes CarEd was specifically made to create C2 cars, it should even be easier. IIRC CarEd ships with a rather good tutorial for creating a basic C2 car. I suggest you also give Maxine's great C2 CarEd tutorial a read: https://www.cwaboard.co.uk/viewtop...

Re: Tosh's car releases

nGlide only works for the 3dfx Glide API. Carma95's API isn't Glide but DirectDraw. So nGlide has no business with Carma95. There are experimental "hires" Carma95 executables but they are largely unfinished and performance is subpar, you can find them in this list: https://rr2000.cwaboard....

Re: How does one make custom music work in C1/SP/SE(OG Carma games/mods)?

Honestly, I'd just disable in-game music playback (by removing winmm.dll if playing via carma95) and play your own music in the background. Else yes, as Joker said, converting your mp3s to ogg files and replacing the existing ones is the way to go. You can't add more tracks than the 7 or 8 already p...
