Re: network game

2009-11-25T13:37:15Z

Hi Csongor,

As far as I know, this feature won't be implemented very soon. Have a
look at "Speed Dreams", they will have a network feature, but not too
soon, either. Till xmas is impossible I think. Speed Dreams isn't
released yet and the network play won't be ready for the first release I
think.
speed-dreams-devel@... is the adress for this
question.
cheers,
Sebastian

network game

2009-11-25T12:04:16Z

Hi everybody,

I am new to this mailing list so it can occur that I should ask this
question not here but somewhere else. In this case please tell me the
proper address.

Well, I would like to know the future of Torcs. When will the network
game feature be implemented? I would like to give my brother a wheel
for christmas and it would be nice to fight each other by evenings.
Since he lives quite far from me the network feature is very needed.

Is it possible that till xmas this feature will be ready? Or if it is
scheduled later then what is it's date?

Thanks for Your answer,

Csongor

List of Robots and Features

2009-11-10T18:44:06Z

Is there a listing of robots that are freely available somewhere on
the on the web? So far, I've found the following robot tutorials:

http://www.berniw.org/torcs/robot/robot.html
http://www.wdbee.gotdns.org:8086/
http://sites.google.com/site/torcscreations/drivers

and I found http://usuarios.lycos.es/f1torcs/ though from what I can
tell, it allows you to create cars.. which might be useful, but I'm
looking for robots and their code.

I'd really like a listing of the features, i.e. what is coded into
them, and in what robot that specific set of code is from.

Are there planned features that haven't been implemented? I noticed in
some online videos that universities have participated, they are
generally open in sharing, is there a listing of what universities
participated in which event, and contact information would be helpful.

I'm looking into simulating my own autonomous car before building my
own physical implementation.

Best Regards.

Re: Display errors with TORCS 1.3.0

2009-11-02T11:26:27Z

For the record "Best" Video Rendering Mode hasnt worked since the Days of Ubuntu Hardy(6.xx) and still doesnt to this day...

The problem is not GLX in the drivers, its the GLUT rendering mode, its code has not been fixed since 'TORCS' was created(from ORCS).

To fix it, you would have to ask the Dev. to fix the rendering mode, to render the texturemapping Correctly on OpenGL =>2.x.

Otherwise, it will never be fixed. I should say the Devs. are too busy focused on including Networking Capability in Torcs

(they should just use the BSD tcp.so and just have it open a TCP-port and broadcast to the network. then just have the client's listen for the broadcasts or specify a ip:port. the TCP/IP stack is already setup to handle this type of framework... and as far as how to handle client/client races... just have the secondary client connect, have the hosting server ask the client the car /car.xml. if it exists ask if the crc is the same of the files in the folder, else have it send in plain-text a copy of the xml. if a texture has been changed, have it transfer the file using tftp built into the client, and store the car.xml/textures in a temp folder.)

if you want better rendering and quality, take a look at the source yourself and see if you can fix it... if i knew /c/c++/glut i would fix it myself... but its not my area of experience...

I just tried this on the long spring track and it worked perfectly, now
I have a new toy again. I'll check all the other tracks now and see if
they work too.

Hello Vicente, hello all.

I've read those pages with interest, and I've got to this conclusion
(I'm not sure I have understood everithing):
for Google, you may use the models in any way, but you have to make sure
that content authors have not set any restriction in doing that. If
there is no such bad thing, you may modify and use anywhere the models.

Bye,
Ocirne

Google's 3D Warehouse models

2009-10-25T04:54:32Z

Hello, I was looking at Google's 3D Warehouse ( http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/ )
and I found a lot of nice cars that could be imported into torcs.

My question is: is it completely free to use these 3d models for non commercial prupouse
like using the models into torcs?

I was surfing the internet and i found in these page:
http://vrshed.com/sketchlife/about3d_warehouse.html

The Terms of Service for Google's 3D Warehouse (see especially section 4, under the heading "Your Rights") give Google and its end-users (that's us) a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, perpetual license to exercise the rights in the Content, as stated below:
1. to reproduce the Content;
2. to create and reproduce derivative works of the Content;
3. to display publicly and distribute copies of the Content;
4. to display publicly and distribute copies of derivative works of the content.
...

Wat do you think about the the license of the Google's 3D Warehouse models? We
can use these models into torcs?

Please help me to find out if it's posible to use these models for torcs and if it's posible
i will import some nice models for torcs.

The full terms of service of Google's 3D Warehouse are here:

Re: From Torcs to POV-Ray

2009-10-24T09:51:42Z

Hi,
I think that those images are really amazing, I wouldn't distinguish
most of them from a real photo.
Just a small suggestion: looking at

http://www.ignorancia.org/uploads/torcs2pov/wips/alpine-2-10.jpg

you can see those low-poly lines, and they aren't very realistic:
I suggest you try adding the following line into the xml file, at the
definition of each segment:

<attnum name="profil steps" val="45"/>

That defines the number of poligons; it won't slow down so much trackgen
or the final render.
Bye,
Ocirne

P.S.: I'm eager to see your tutorials

Thanks!

BTW, I've added a few more shots to the page now, to show the real
intent of my experiment. I'm using trackeditor and trackgen as tools
to generate roads for POV-Ray. I have now a POV-Ray scene which takes
the track geometry and the terrain elevation map, and populates it with
trees, huts and other road scenery... I'm still adding more things like
ads, birds, and anything that I can think of. ;)

Hello,

My name is Chris McInnish and I work for the Envizions Computer
Entertainment Corporation. We are wrapping up development of our new
console called EVO. It is a Linux based system and we are getting ready to
do a live conference that will be broad casted on the Internet and TV as
well as have a small audience at the event. At the event, we are promoting
open source games and would like to use TORCS as part of our
promotion. If you are interested, could you send any high resolution
videos or trailors you have that we can play at the event.
If you need any more information, feel free to contact me with any
questions. Thank you for your time.

Odd stuff happening at second 1.0

2009-10-21T06:56:51Z

Hello,
I've found that when s->currentTime reaches 1.0, human driver (whichever
its car is) sets accel to 0.0, just to gradually reapply it in the
following 5 timesteps. This happens in all gears, with all tracks. And I
think it's not very realistic... I've found in human.cpp the following
lines:

if (s->currentTime > 1.0) {
// thanks Christos for the following: gradual accel/brake
changes for on/off controls.
const tdble inc_rate = 0.2f;

if (cmd[CMD_BRAKE].type == GFCTRL_TYPE_JOY_BUT ||
cmd[CMD_BRAKE].type == GFCTRL_TYPE_MOUSE_BUT ||
cmd[CMD_BRAKE].type == GFCTRL_TYPE_KEYBOARD ||
cmd[CMD_BRAKE].type == GFCTRL_TYPE_SKEYBOARD)
{
tdble d_brake = car->_brakeCmd - HCtx[idx]->pbrake;
if (fabs(d_brake) > inc_rate && car->_brakeCmd >
HCtx[idx]->pbrake) {
car->_brakeCmd = MIN(car->_brakeCmd, HCtx[idx]->pbrake +
inc_rate*d_brake/fabs(d_brake));
}
HCtx[idx]->pbrake = car->_brakeCmd;
}

if (cmd[CMD_THROTTLE].type == GFCTRL_TYPE_JOY_BUT ||
cmd[CMD_THROTTLE].type == GFCTRL_TYPE_MOUSE_BUT ||
cmd[CMD_THROTTLE].type == GFCTRL_TYPE_KEYBOARD ||
cmd[CMD_THROTTLE].type == GFCTRL_TYPE_SKEYBOARD)
{
tdble d_accel = car->_accelCmd - HCtx[idx]->paccel;
if (fabs(d_accel) > inc_rate && car->_accelCmd >
HCtx[idx]->paccel) {
car->_accelCmd = MIN(car->_accelCmd, HCtx[idx]->paccel +
inc_rate*d_accel/fabs(d_accel));
}
HCtx[idx]->paccel = car->_accelCmd;
}
}

and, setting inc_rate at line 3 to 1.0f, the bug doesn't seem to happen
anymore. The problem is that I suppose line 3 is important for other
things, so my remedy must be changed into something else.

The problem disappears also commenting lines 17 to 27, but, as for the
previous stuff, I think those lines are useful for something.

So, what would it possible to do?

Cheers,
Ocirne.

P.S.: I'm not sure whether it has been made intentionally or not. If
that's the case, and it's useful for something, sorry for all the spam
above.

From Torcs to POV-Ray

2009-10-13T12:37:21Z

Hi All:

Years ago, when I found TORCS, I was looking for an open source
racing game which will let me export the tracks and cars to POV-Ray, so
I could render some realistic road scenes. TORCS looked like a very
good candidate, and indeed it was possible to export the geometry to
POV-Ray via Blender, but I didn't find any automatic way to get a
spline for the track path (so that I could place the cars and camera).

I abandoned the project and started to get addicted to race with
TORCS...

But recently I figured out a way to get the track spline into
POV-Ray, via Wings3D. The method is bit convoluted, and I still have
some problems, but the results are starting to look good:

http://www.ignorancia.org/en/index.php?page=torcs2pov

The page is still blank, it contains just the images... I will put
there a little tutorial about the process, ASAP. Comments are welcome,
and the TORCS Team are free to use any of these images for any purpose.

****************THANKYOU*********************

I just tried this on the long spring track and it worked perfectly, now
I have a new toy again. I'll check all the other tracks now and see if
they work too.

thankyou!

I have had this problem with every version of both TORCS and Linux
that I have used over the past 5 or so years, since first trying TORCS.
Not all tracks are this way but a lot of them, some like the very long
track "spring" something? especially. This is the track I always check
first on a new installation.

the odd thing is the last installation of Linux and TORCS was when I
installed Ubuntu 9.04 and right out of the box, I am sure I tried this
track, noticed that it was not broken in the way you described, so
excitedly I went and made my usual settings, and the track was broken.
I did try to return to the default, I tried uninstalling and
reinstalling but nothing corrected this problem and I ended up
wondering if I was mistaken to begin with. I have virtually given up on
TORCS for this reason and because it seems the developers are now more
interested in doing windblows versions.

At this point I'm not sure what the problem might be, I have these problems on a system with an NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GT, Linux driver 1.80.60, with and without AA/AF (the effect is the same, the screenshots have AA, I believe). TORCS is using the best video mode, maximum texture size of 4096 and texture compression is disabled, are these problems due to driver/NVIDIA GL library? Is there something I could do to correct these?

AFAIK these clipping errors are caused by the video drivers, not TORCS
itself. Please check if you can install a more recent version of your
drivers.
Though v1.3.1 does *not* handle graphics differently I suggest you
download and try it, as it has many improvements over v1.3.0

Display errors with TORCS 1.3.0

2009-10-11T21:49:22Z

TORCS 1.3.0 either the officially distributed one, or the one offered from my distribution's repository (Fedora) have display errors which cause some models to turn transparent and not display properly. This applies to both terrain and the cars themselves. Here are some links to screenshots I just took, I got these with the binary distribution of TORCS as offered in the website as well as with the one found in the Fedora repositories.

Hello Albert,

I think it's not enough, you also need to copy the driver's library to
/usr/lib/torcs (also, check if in /usr/lib you find a folder named
torcs, because I'm not sure about the location of default folders for
package install).

> How can I duplicate a driver? For example, create a new set of damned

I think you have to download the whole torcs sources and compile them;
to copy an existing robot (but in sources you'll already find berniw
two), copy sources from the existing robot, modify them (you'll have to
modify the robot's name into the sources and into the xml file, see
www.berniw.org, torcs section, robot tutorial sub-section, chapter one);
after that, you have to compile the new robot, after setting up some
environment variables: copy the following lines at the end of .bashrc
file in your home directory

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=the path where is located torcs folder with robot
libraries, default is /usr/local/lib
export TORCS_BASE=the folder where torcs sources are located (if it's on
your Desktop, it should be /home/name/Desktop/torcs-1.3.1)
export MAKE_DEFAULT=${TORCS_BASE}/Make-default.mk

To compile the new robot, open a shell into your robot's sources
directory (F4) and run "make" and "make install" commands.

Bye,
Ocirne

Is it true in general that copying a driver directory to /usr/share/torcs/drivers is enough? Same for cars and tracks?

How can I duplicate a driver? For example, create a new set of damned drivers out of the current ones by copying/editing the xml files?

Are these tracks you are providing, are they supposed to be playable,
i.e. not just the actual layout. I have gone to your site each time of
your announced new track but have not yet found a single track to
download.

In fact I just went to the address

http://apr-free.info

and can not find even a link to anything TORCS related.

can you help?
