Hi Bernard,
thanks for the response. I am now having trouble running wtorcs.exe after
building it in vc++6.0.
the following is the console message before it crashed:

Why not just configure the player to use it? If the operating system picks it up
it should be configurable. If you do not know how to set it up, read the "howto
drive" in the Documentation section on www.torcs.org.

Bye, Bernhard.

Hi, I have a device that I wish to use as a control of torcs, it has a 4
simple key that intends to act just as the up,down,left,right arrow on the
keyboard, make the vehicle go in different  directions.  How do I make torcs
use this new set of controls?  I looked through control.cpp etc but am a bit
lost.  any pointer is appreciated.
thank you!

Hi,

I tried some time ago to compile TORCS with the free sdk VBC2005.

I did not meet your issue. Moreover, you need also to run
"setup_win32-data-from-CVS". I do not remember if it is requested to compile
or to play the game but it is for sure mandatory.

Even if I did not meet the same probleme than you, I met many others issues
that lead me to go to Visual C++ 6.0.

Here are the things I remember :

1/ You need also to install the microsoft  psdk :  I used
"5.2.3790.2075.51.PlatformSDK_Svr2003R2_rtm" from microsoft site.

2/ You need to open the workspace of TORCS from the main directory. There is
an import feature to do that in VBC2005. It will then complain it is an old
version that is not compliant and will create a new project from the old
one. I am not sure but some depencies were then missing and there are some
settings to restore manually.

3/ You will have several warings that could just be ignored to my point of
view. Some could be removed with an option during compilation.

4/ Then, there are some errors that will require you to modify the code.
Some functions does not exist anymore, others have been overloaded and you
need now to specify type of arguments and so on.

I believe you can do it once to play the game but you will have to do the
job each time you will need a new version of the game UNLESS you are
volunteer to do some porting of the game other this free sdk. It would be
worth contacting bernie who I believe is leading the development.

Regards.

Hi,

how can I acquire camera-related data in Torcs? Such information may include 
the  (x, y, z) coordinate of the Camera in the 3D world, or the vector at 
which camera is pointing at? or the aperture size of the camera? May I know 
how this kind data is coded in torcs (e.g., are they being modelled? If so, 
what are the default values? etc.)

Thanks in advance.

Regards

Hi,


1. Unzip the source archives

2. IMPORTANT: run setup_win32.bat

went well, but, but when attempting to compile in VBC2005, I get that the
application for project 'TORCS.dsp' is not installed, as well as ALL other
.dsp files.

Could you help me out here or no?

Regards

Is side by side split screen possible for two player, instead of
top/bottom split?

Thanks,
