Joystick bugfixing

ThunderWheels - dukkenuken1

We've recompiled our input library (OIS) and tested successfully with 5 Joysticks at the same time, so 8 Joysticks should now work again.

Also we found that in production the game behaves differently (buttons mapping changes) so we now have it working well out of the box and there is NO NEED to follow that "analog joystick" guide we've published some time ago.

Just leave the configuration on steam by default. Or just in case do this:
Steam->settings->controller->general controller settings and then click on the controllers you have connected to the pc.

Then in the library -> right click in thunderwheels -> properties... -> steam input per game -> "Use your global steam input settings".

That should be your default configuration any way.
If you can test the game with more than 4 controllers or if you have any question please post it here:

Binary update v0.9.1

ThunderWheels - dukkenuken1

We've finished porting the game to the latest graphics engine version (Ogre3D) and to the latest compiler.
This version should run about 37% faster in frame rate than the previous version. I know we don't need optimizations since this game is quite fast and smooth even on old graphics video cards but we needed to modernize our development tools.
Full details here:

Coming back to work :)

ThunderWheels - dukkenuken1

Hi everyone !
We are back after a very nice vacations :)

This is geek post.
During July & August, besides being in the beach, I was updating our development tools. Since we're not using a game engine it is quite complex to update. We use Ogre3D as graphics engine and many external libraries so upgrading the graphics engine and compiler takes a lot of work and a lot of coding to make it work.

We have the game running with Direct3D11 (before it was only possible on OpenGL and Direct3D9) but some things has broken, dust particles, skid marks, texture shadows, etc.
We will share our progress in this post:

New car: Monster Buggy

ThunderWheels - dukkenuken1

Hi everyone !
We're almost writing this post in the beach ! I'm dying go on vacations you know... palm trees, cold beers, ocean waves, etc....

This is a very small update, a new car version: "Monster buggybob"

This car will be used in the championships of course.

During the next months we will be upgrading most of our software and external libraries, so we will be busy re-compiling the project and upgrading assets.

Two new features are in the horizon right now:
- Use steam messages to let you know when a friend has overtaken you in the championships
- Real-time online

Wishing you a very wonderful vacation!
