Hi all, we have just release a second release candidate for 0.7.2. Compared to the first release candidate the following issues have been fixed or been improved:
* New beastie kart * Crash on linux when using the addon manager. * Fixed crash when stk couldn't save downloaded addons. * Potential crash when removing addons. * Properly detect system language on Windows. * Incorrect rescue (e.g. on city track) * End of race music was fixed. * Updated translations, minor improvements to some models You may found packages at http://sourceforge.net/projects/supertuxkart/files/SuperTuxKart/0.7.2/ Please test and provide feedback!
PS: For people still on 0.7.1, here the important changes in 0.7.2 again: * Added in-game addon manager ( see http://stkaddons.net/ ) * Fixed major memory leaks (STK will no longer saturate your memory after half a dozen races) * New Snow Peak track by Samuncle * Improved star track UFO by Rudy * Show when you get a highscore * Improve gamepad configuration under Windows (add ability to tell gamepads apart) * Various other tweaks done and glitches fixed

That RC2 is quite promising. The BSD kart looks awesome and provides a good driving experience - it might become my favourite kart.
ReplyDeleteMy suggestions/ feedback to improve stk:
* Swatter: Create a new icon for the swatter item. Maybe this is a bug. On my latest checkout of the trunk the swatter icon is a bomb. The swatter model doesn't really resemble to a swatter to me. Why don't you use the model and icons presented in the forums (a mechanical hand holding a green swatter). I know that this swatter version uses more screen space. But eventually I got to know what the item is that I'm using. The swatter usage is a little bit more special than other items - it took me a while to be able to use it effectively. When I got an anchor/ bomb or another nasty item, using the swatter removes it. When overtaking other players or when I am going to be overtaken the probability to hit an opponent is quite high. It's really fun to hit an opponent. But maybe the punishment (havling the top speed for a long time) is too severe compared to other items.
* Icon display bug: At the end of the race the items I'm holding are still displayed, although I can't use it since the race is over. (This bug appears at least in the multiplayer mode.)
Hi,
ReplyDeletethe swatter is only in trunk, not in 0.7.2; so we have time to fix it until 0.7.3 :)
Reagrding the weapons icons, thanks, I created a ticket
