Official GeneRally feature request list

[James]

Its 10th anniversary in May wouldn't be a bad release date, would it!?

Ooh, now there's something that had escaped my notice... I guess we'll have to try and do something for that - but no promises

[Glen]

Is it possible to have a little bit grip in the water? I mean, not only in the bottom of the water.

In that case, real boat will be possible

[Lukeno94]

Actually, you CAN make a regularly functioning boat just like you can with an aeroplane, but it requires some careful calculations. xD

[jefcam]

My Dream....

more cars on track...

multiplayer online...

[DuklaLiberec]

We actually already requested that and James will know about it, but nothing has been confirmed yet.

What about releasing something like 1.05ce, or in this case, a special (limited ) 10th anniversary edition of GR 1.10?

[AgentSufkop]

I've got a few ideas.
-Larger maps (what about 355?)
-Motion blur and tilt shifting
-Twelve cars
-Traffic
-Buyable cars
Well, agreed?

[Paw]

-Larger maps (what about 355?)

This number makes no sense. 512 would be next possible step.

Most of changes you've mentioned would need the game to be heavily modified, so don't get your hopes high. But we can only wait.

[Lukeno94]

His suggestion is to add a WS up to 100 bigger. But that would be a nightmare to make anything for - many pieces would be nigh-on invisible.

Buyable cars is a no-no, if you want that then play Gran Turismo GR, having that in regular GR is just ridiculous.

Traffic - not a bad idea for some tracks, but it would either be very simplistic or hugely complicated.

Motion blur - with cars this size?

Tilt-shifting - what is that? We aren't playing pinball!

12 cars - probably the most sensible (arguably, only sensible) proposal you made.

[Scorpion]

-Larger maps
-Twelve cars
-Traffic

It was somewhere in this topic and from your proposals these three are the best.

[AgentSufkop]

Think about it - traffic! I'm seeing a large map with traffic in front of me, you know, like Tokyo or something!

[Lukeno94]

Which feels nothing like GeneRally whatsoever.

When exactly is it?

[Trigger Happy]

Don't be so lazy, just open the version.txt.

[Krisu]

Likely mentioned before, but I'd like to have the stereo sound from GR 1.05 back... The (probably mono) sound of 1.10 is quite a bit more dull.

That's related to an SDL bug that we will be working around to ensure a fix before the next version. Technically the sound is still stereo, but the playback does behave differently to 1.05.

[V.Mendonca(VITORFM)]

james, any possibility to more than 6 cars on track ?

[SammieVL]

We need a handbrake. What is a racing game without a handbrake? No drifting, no stopping before driving off a cliff, etc...

[Haruna]

The brakes are hard enough to not require it.

[Scorpion]

Handbrake is for me not useful idea.

[Alex]

What about a team simulation? If you click your name on GR it should become a colour, and you can control the AIs so they have the same colour on their name as you. Your teammate should block your opponents and let you pass easily. The pits will be designated for each team. Also, you could get constructor points.

[BRIX]

Great idea! It would be great to drive with other players in mixed teams.

Team 1: Human1, Computer1
Team 2: Human2, Computer2
Team 3: Computer3, Computer4

[Mad Dan]

I like the teams idea quite a lot too. Though any blocking and stuff like that seems weird to me, it would be enough to just have sort of team standings as well as driver standings after ingame races/seasons.

About pits, you have some tracks with so-called superpits and this can't work there...

[Scorpion]

New object(s):
empty stand?

[eMeR]

I don't know if it was mentioned here before but person object would have smaller contact area. BBA mention it in his Monaco 1967, because when I'm driving close to the walls the blood start "spraying".
