Packing it with TORCS is probably the best way. You can put a link to my
site too, since it will probably be the best way to get the latest
update without having to make a new release of TORCS each time I upgrade
my driver.

Impressive !

My poor robots are far far behind...
On e-Track 3 even with the steering wheel (and a better car)
I cannot compete (I should admit that I'm a poor racing driver).
The results for e-Track 3 were:

K1999 1:31:99
me    1:33:48
LLiaw 1:40:50

Really great, K1999 performs very well on all the tracks.

Remi, tell me if you want me to pack your robot with TORCS
or if you prefer that I put a link on your own site.
I think I will create separate packs for the contributions
(drivers and tracks).

Hi,

I adapted my K1999 RARS car to TORCS. If you would like to try it you
can download it from my web page:
http://www-leibniz.imag.fr/~coulom/K1999.tar.gz
unpack it in the torcs/src/driver directory. It should create a K1999
directory with all necessary files. Simply go into the K1999 directory
and type "make" to build and install it.

I did not test it with the new version of torcs. It uses the defaults
car settings. I hope they did not change. K1999 does not handle skidding
and crashing well. It does not handle passing at all yet.

I unfortunately have no joystick and can not compete against my car. I
would be very curious to know how good other human players are compared
to the bots. K1999 should be significantly faster than the current bots
on most tracks anyway, but I believe it is very far from unbeatable.

I think this is the important point...

in order to run TORCS correctly, you have to be located in the runtime
directory when running TORCS.

You should verify that the b5______.ttf file is present under:
data/fonts

BTW if you intended to play with a joystick or a steering wheel,
get the 0.0.17 version (a patch is dispo) it improves the driving a lot.

The patch is the [gz] version appearing on sourceforge.

I am using a standard Debian 2.3 (woody), a Vodoo1 card and
torcs-0.0.16b. Other games like tuxracer, tux_aqfh and flightgear work
fine here, so my Mesa setup should be correct.
Setting MESA_GLX_FX=disable or MESA_GLX_FX=fullscreen didn't help. 

Is there a way to turn on a verbose mode or something?

BTW. I just discovered the trace file, could set have something to do?
