Quote from PikaTutoriales18 :

I hope that Fern Bay does not have many changes as Westhill had them since it is very difficult to get used to a new track

You should't be concerned since you can only drive on Blackwood.

The pace you guys are working at lately is something we haven't seen in a long time. Good job!

Very good job ok?

Quote from EfsaneTosun :

Is it time to play this game open world? 10 years and changing = 0

Hell yeah bro it's almost 2019, we need Battle Royale mode and loot boxes with .vob mods in them

Did that area get scraped? Why was it there in the first place? Was it ever intended to be finished?

I've been following the developement of this game for awhile now and a few days ago first demo was released, so I thought it's a good time to post about it. The game was know as "Driving Survival" at first, but recently was renamed to "Beware" (it still may not be the final name).
Beware is an open world survival horror driving game. It uses CarX Engine for the driving physics. Currently it's being developed by one man - Ondřej Švadlena.

Scawen you should say what exactly you are working on to prevent people from building up some unrealistic expectations and geting unnecessarily hyped. That never ends well.

I've menaged to free up 2x2.5m of space in my room so that's even beyond the minimum 2x1.5m requirement of the Vive, so on May 9th I've ordered one. Already recieved the "PreOrder Authorization" email on 14th saying that it "will ship soon". So it will definitely ship before my Rift which was estimated to ship in May when I've ordered it on January 7th, but the new estimate they given on April 12th is 6/27/2016 - 7/7/2016 - so that's a half a year wait. It looks like HTC will fulfill all pre-orders by the end of June.

So Rift's launch looks quite pathetic compared to Vive's launch. Oculus is dealing with a much bigger amount of orders and HTC have years of experience in manufacturing and distribution, so it's not much of a surprise that HTC is doing better, but still...

Having 2 headsets wouldn't make much sense, so I will probably sell my Rift when it arrives with some good profit. I'm tired of waiting for it and I don't want to spend another half a year waiting for the Oculus Touch. Overal tired of their shit.

EDIT: My 9.05 order was shipped today - 26.05, so within 18 days

Quote from MandulAA :

Although I wouldn't make much use of it on my wheel, I think G27 and G29 are some very popular wheels and many players would appreciate this!

Few years ago Scawen tried to implement that but something about Logitech's SDK was messed up and he wasn't able to do it, can't remember the details.

That's a nice addition. When I bought my G27 I was unpleasantly surprised that I had to configure everything by myself in LFS - like it's some very rare imput device. It's good to have some default presets for - at least - the most popular controllers.

Quote from troy :

Not sure if anybody is aware of it but this may be something for Scawen to try and get into? Seems like a good way to reach VR enthusiasts and make use of a completely now form of interacting with game assets while talking about all kinds of decisions that went into building them.

You can't look at just one video.

Oh wow you are right, thanks man. DX11 changed my life - my games newer ran and looked this good before. How do I unninstall DX9? It makes my games slow and blurry.

Okay april fools is over, let's get back on topic.

For those who preordered the Rift there is bad news and good news:
http://i.imgur.com/jneHEwh.png

So the bad news is - there will be delays,there already are - many people with estimated March 28 ship date still haven't recieved their Rifts. Hopefuly they will catch up later on, once they sort things out.

Good news is - all Rifts ordered before today will be shipped for free. They already removed €43 shipment cost from my Order History.

I knew it's april fools but you still got me. For a second I thought it's actually Eric casually posting on the forums

Quote from Scawen :

Hopefully it's simple enough, with 1.3 installed, to use programs that are not featured in the Oculus Store.

Quote from Scawen :

Oculus home.

How did your talks with Oculus went about putting LFS on the Oculus Store? Is it still ongoing or you can't say anything because of the NDA? On Monday they will be releasing Oculus SDK 1.3 featuring Asynchronous Timewarp.

They've started shipping (not to me - thanks PayPal), so make sure you have enough cash on your Credit Card or PayPal.

Quote from Scawen :

I did actually.

In fact Mark Healey did the original (ASCII characters only) using my font editor.

Since then I've updated them, following the same style, thinned them a little at one point, and added many new characters when we went for the international support.

I wasn't aware of that, sorry for spreading misinformation.
If you've designed that ogonek, it's a nice one.

Quote from yaper :

In M7 Polish characters are working correctly in VK.

Cosmetic note on ą character (a with ogonek/peduncle). In LFS font, the ogonek should be more aligned to the right.
www.twardoch.com/download/polishhowto/ogonek.html

Ogonek looks alright to me. Quote from your link:

Quote :

The ogonek should never exceed the right boundary of the basic glyph. It makes the letter loose its natural harmony and balance and thus "flip" to the right.

And it's not like Scawen desinged those letters, it's just a font.

Patch works flawlessly for me.
