Hello, Here is a new progress report. Lots has changed like:
- Switched enemy direction (same as player now)
- added fuel
- added segmentbars for fuel and speed
- added taillights (toxibunny suggested this)
- added speed optimasation to not call objectpointat if the objects angle has not changed
- switcht to use objectpointat instead of rotating the object and undoing the rotation at each frame
- ....

Nice to see how this game has evolved, looks nice and fun to play. I like the occasional bird flying over as well :)
-
@PB____ ah yeah i forgot to mention the birds :) indeed there are 2 eagles flying over horizontally randomly at certain times. I also added a parralell to the road little flying bird. I really hope adding sounds does not strain cpu that much or i might have to lower enemy cars once more. Have not been able to change / increase speed with the enemy vs enemy detection everything i try seems to fail :)

During the weekend i worked some more on the 3d car racing game and I have found a name for it ... "The Longest Drive".
I added my menu system from the Retro Time game, music and sound as well as some difficulty settings. There are 3 difficulty settings defining minimum and maximum traffic. I also implemented @spikey 's Highscore system. The game is nearly finished now, only a few small additions here and there like adding credits, saving options along with the highscores and doing some playtesting.
Here's a video with the latest changes

Looks great!

I can't wait to play it!

Cool, the street lights add a nice effect.
-
@Dinocoder yeah initially the cars had lights as well but they are not easily noticeable and it was causing speed issues. I also initially used a worldshadowlight but that still has a memory leak so i use normal worldlight
