Car Demo not working... missing shapes
by Dan - · in Torque Game Engine · 11/14/2003 (6:07 am) · 8 replies
I checked out the latest tagged version of the SDK and it appears to be missing many of the shapes that certain demos/tutorials use.
Currently I am working with a car demo which references:
shapeFile = "~/data/shapes/car/carbow.dts";
Which doesn't exist in my checkout.
Are some of the tutorials so out of date you can't use them? Am I missing something to check out?
Thanks,

You're using the "deathcar" resource I posted. The .dts shape you're referring to should be in the zip file you downloaded.

You are right. Just not in the write spot. Thank you. I should have looked harder.
Do you know your example still works with tag Release_1_2_0?
I hate to spend time working on something expecting it to work when it wont. (I have done that on a few things already)

With the removal of the Racing GameType from the 1.2.0 tree.... probably not as a simple '-mod deathcar'. The basic concept is still the same you will just need to edit the origional files and my files to get it working. When a racing.starter pack gets made I'll redo the resource for that.

@Harold: It's already made, blame Tim for not comitting it yet :)

torquedemo -game demo -mod deathcar
The racing game within the demo will now have the death car. You can drive around and shoot. Looks cool with the vanity plates. Not sure if the guns do damage to other cars. I have no friends to play with right now. :(

It turns out you can do the deathcar thingie, but you need to do:torquedemo -game demo -mod deathcar
