<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">Torcs-NG is a fork of <a href="http://www.torcs.org">The famous Open
|
||||
Racing Car Simulator "Torcs"</a>, but it does not any pretend
|
||||
to replace it. It's main goal is simply to host <span style="font-weight: bold;">experimental</span>
|
||||
developpements inside Torcs, while trying to follow as closely as
|
||||
possible its release and evolution stream ...</p>
|
||||
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">In other words,
|
||||
Torcs-NG is the place :</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>
|
||||
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">where developpers can
|
||||
try their ideas and have efery chance to get them released to the
|
||||
end-users (<span style="font-weight: bold;">democracy</span>
|
||||
is the main principle ruling the dev team),</p>
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
<li>
|
||||
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">where end-users can
|
||||
enjoy the completion of these ideas and give their opinion about it,
|
||||
and/or make new suggestions.</p>

</p>

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">Torcs-NG will generally
|
||||
follow Torcs
|
||||
release stream : a new release, with the same identifier (ex: 1.3.1),
|
||||
will normally be published in the weeks after each Torcs release. It
|
||||
will contain the whole Torcs release, plus the whole bunch of adds we
|
||||
maintain. But
|
||||
other intermediate releases could also be published if improvements
|
||||
commited to the trunk since last one would justify it, and of course
|
||||
if Torcs wouldn't have issued a new release meanwhile.</p>
|
||||
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">As already said, the
|
||||
content of each
|
||||
release will be <span style="font-weight: bold;">democratically</span>
|
||||
decided inside the dev. team.
|
||||
Stability and bug freeness is not our first purpose, but it's just
|
||||
the second one : modifications that are not really completed, well
|
||||
tested or that may degrade the simulation realism, some other
|
||||
essential feature or performance, or the end-user gaming experience
|
||||
won't be released (unless they are of great interest and can be
|
||||
completly switched off through some run-time user action).</p>
|
||||
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">For the moment, the
|
||||
supported platforms are Linux (x86, x86_64) and 32 bit Windows XP, but
|
||||
any volunteer is welcome for any other ... as Torcs is known
|
||||
to work on Linux PPC, FreeBSD, MacOSX and Windows Vista.</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"></p>
