torcs-users Mailing List for TORCS - The Open Racing Car Simulator

Hello,

I am testing torcs 1.3.8-test 1
I have tried stock cars cause i like their sound but, on the track they do
not perform as good as other cars !

So, in your opinion, which one is the best car ?

regards

Hi,

I just installed Torcs 1.3.4 and the SCR patch on a windows7 (64 bit) machine. Installation went fine without a problem. But when I run torcs, after loading the drivers and before switching to the 3d rendered view, the program crashes (see screenshot).

It could be a OpenGL driver problem. Then how can I debug it? Is there any kind of logfile I can refer to?

I just cross-posted the question on stackoverflow, if someone wants to earn credits:

Hi Bernhard,

Thanks for the response.

I am using TORCS-1.3.7 on Ubuntu 16.04.4.

When I run torcs with the “-r” command line option I get the following output and the GUI starts up:

Visual Properties Report
------------------------
Compatibility mode, properties unknown.


I would appreciate any advice or suggestions on how to troubleshoot this.

Thanks.

Regards,
Abhinav

Hi

Works here as specified (-r, command line mode only).

What TORCS version/patches are you using?

Kind regards

Bernhard

Hello,

I am trying to train a neural net in the practice mode of TORCS, with only the sensor readings, but have been unable to find a way to run the simulator without a display. I tried using the “-r” command line option, but that does not seem to work for me and the display with the race is still being launched.

Is there any way to run the simulator, to race and get the sensor readings, without launching the visuals of the race?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Regards,
Abhinav

Hi all

TORCS version 1.3.8-test1 is available, visit www.torcs.org for details.

Enjoy, Bernhard.

Hi,

car1-ow1 has had significant changes in CVS.
I would really like to have a car1-ow1 and a car2-ow1.
Others will likely prefer two ow1 cars also.
(especially if they were to test drive the latest TORCS)

This one is for those that have ripped up a motocross track with a bike,
or who have driven a Chevy II Nova on a dirt track,
or those that have seen real drifting on you-tube:

- Grab that latest TORCS from cvs
- Apply torcs-1.3.8.contact.2.patch and compile.

- Select car1-trb1 (semi-pro)
- Try Alpine 2 (you can drift the whole track! -- ha ha)
- Try Dirt 2 (yeah, you know ... see ya)
- Then discover Hidden Valley (the new track! )

Sincerely,
David Savinkoff
