Stunt Rally 1.4 Release & Trigger Rally 0.6 Videos



From an announcement email:
Hi, after some months of silence we've released version 1.4 with a huge changelog. Some highlights:
  • 71 tracks
  • 2 new cars (TC6, NS)
  • Fixed shadows (self shadowing, lightmapping)
  • Better looking shaders (fresnel effect, reflectivity/specular maps) 
  • SSAO effect (Screen Space Ambient Occlusion)
  • Sound effects and particles for water or mud areas
  • Improved in-car camera
  • Rear gear throttle-brake inverse option

Also, installing this game just got a whole lot easier for linux users as there is now a binary Linux release (32 and 64 bit).


Trigger Rally 0.6 has been out for two months by now but now there are some high-resolution gameplay videos available:




The game is much simpler in all aspects than Stunt Rally but it runs well on netbooks. There is a community effort going on to replace copyright/trademark-problematic assets right now.

Maybe you can help by answering this strange question: would you consider these 3D models to be infringing on proprietary car designs?
