    I thought some of you didn't use Facebook. So an eye candy for you.
    Draco Cavernae's spectator stand. The track is nearly finished.

    Where is the big list?

    So far we don't have a general list, just a bunch of files in a folder.
    However we do have some of them in our soundcloud page:

    I've been lurking in this thread for quite some time now. I must say, the progress you guys have made is amazing ^_^ Can't wait till it is officially released!

    This is a really awesome test run. You can feel the sense of speed in the ships. I assume you'll be adding more things like HUD disruptions and motion blurs to enhance the looks? I feel like this is a perfect mix of all the WipEout games made so far (which sorta makes it the best kind of fan-made game ). It's got the first game's levity when you're in the air and also the acceleration is very similar in some cases, it's got a mix of Pure and Pulse's turning physics, and it's got a mix of Fusion/HD's environments. Damn impressed right now. Just a question though, are you going to change the way the BRs look when executed? As it can be seen in the video, they turn a bit more than 360 degrees when the ships are about to land and sparks come out when they make contact with the ground which (I presume) will affect your speed. (Or is that the double BR thing that people kept mentioning?)

    Hey, thanks for the kind words

    Yeah, we wish and plan to. Unfortunately, Unity Free is very limited when it comes to image effects [no dof, no blur, no heat distortion] so that is another reason why we need Unity Pro, to give SSGX the details in looks that it needs to not come across "flat". We will include a donation button on our homepage soon for the first move so every helping hand is appreciated.

    Don't worry, the speed on landing will barely be affected if you successfully performed a BR. And yes, this is at one part a preparation for the multi barrel rolls, on the other side we had the feeling that the br's in WoHD looked a bit "static & programmed" so we added some more physics to it like overturning on rotating.

    I like how the brs look now. Also, blur I felt never added anything to wipeout, just a false sense of speed, and making the background look worse while you are doing it. The older games the turbo just looked fast, and the background still looked nice.

    True, we will take care not to extravaggate with this tools in case we can access them some day. Blur I think could happen on the overall screen shortly when a missile or rocket flew into your ship - next to the above mentioned heat distortion and some nice explosion

    We have a donation button on our website.
    If anyone wants to help us gather enough money to get Unity Pro you can use that donation button!
    Lots of cool stuff awaits if we end up getting Unity Pro!

    Yeah, don't know why you guys didn't go with UDK in the first place... It's completely free without limitations like Unity, and remains free if your game is noncommercial. $1500 is a hefty price to pay. :/

    UDK was a considered (I have it installed) at first but the thing is a nightmare to work with, plus it's very innefficient at using the computer's performance if you don't know how to use UDK well. It would be a good choice had we already have any experience at game making and working with UDK.

    Don't know if this has been addressed at some point already, but does this game live up to it's name in any regard? I.e., if you can play against AI or, if there's multiplayer, other people, can you get a speed boost by hanging in their slipstream? Don't even know how that would make sense with rocket boosters firing spent fuel in your face at the same time, but was still curious.

    Slipstreaming is on the list. But we also gotta check if it is even working. While it makes fully sense in Nascar races for example, where you can hang onto other ppls arses, do bump drafts and slingshots, this all seems to be a bit hard for such an agile racing game like SlipStream GX. But it is on the list and once we got the code ready for it, we will see how it looks and feels...

    I'll probably donate a few euros when I can. You guys are doing such a great job on this project.

    You guys could think of some fundraising projects to earn the money towards Unity. You could sell stuff, do the classic lemonade stand? etc. etc.
    I will hopefully be donating some money in the future now that I have a job

    Thank you man. Every single donation helps. If many ppl donate just a little bit, nobody has to donate much

    We also discussed kickstarter but came to the conclusion that currently SSGX is in an early stage and we are not sure if we can get that much followers for it, we only have one track fully completed and still we fixed some issues recently. So for now we want to see how far we come with the donations.
    Of course we are thinking about some sort of bonus for everyone who helps us out on the Unity Pro money collection since this kind of help [money] isn't something we like to ask for but really helps and means alot for us

    And congrats for your job!!
