Dev thread for new/returning Ring Racers addons.
Developing
Long-term projects to focus on.- Chaos Drives
- Ring Racers updated version to make good use of the built-in map queueing features
- Needs hardcode support for stat buffs, I really do not want to make weird hacks if a game update can invalidate them.
- Basically everything is done except: HUD elements, the actual stat boosts.
- It would be really cool to have a Chao Garden-styled City Trial map...
- Demon Cup
- Maps
- [Circuit] Lunatic Eschaton Zone ♪ Crimson_Moon (PeriTune): Apocalyptic landscape including elements from Vortex World and Da'at. Tornados (Launch Base Zone turbines) can redirect players who drive into corners.
- [Circuit] First Responder Rush ♪ Surgery ~ Struggle for Life (Atsushi Kitajoh): Trauma Center. Site of a bomb attack in a city. An explosion is triggered on lap 3.
- [Battle] Ravaged Research Zone ♪ Forensics ~ Dying Messages (Atsushi Kitajoh): Trauma Center. SCP Foundation-adjacent research lab filled with chemical spills and broken containment areas.
- [Circuit] Tutelage Forest ♪ Tutelary Forest (FM Ver., Yuzo Koshiro): Etrian Odyssey. The minimap is hidden unless you pick up a map by finishing a lap or driving the wrong way.
- [Section] Xibalba ♪ Knights of the Holy Spear (PERSORA version, Ryota Kozuka): Persona 2. Mysterious ruins that take you into space. There's a mysterious pair of sunglasses in the starting area.
- [Battle] Cross Town ♪ Dollar Signs (Megan McDuffee): River City Ransom. Bump stationary trash cans to create projectiles.
- [Section] Bunny Slope ♪ Rapid5 (PeriTune): Snowboarding course. Jack Frost will be at the bottom to speak with you if you throw the race.
- [Secret] Did you know ATLUS published a Dodonpachi game? I thought that was interesting.
- Bonuses
- [Racer] Peregrine: Commissioned from English FWO publisher Ishkander.
- [Racer] Kamuy: Commissioned from English FWO publisher Ishkander.
- [Racer] Satan: Already done by somebody else!
- [Racer] Yousuke Shibasaki: Protagonist of Isekai Ojisan with many aliases. SEGA-obsessed isekai character who would not look that strange next to Peregrine and Kamuy. Rivals: SEGA mascots (Sonic, Alex Kidd, Opa-Opa, and/or Segata Sanshiro depending on what other modders make.)
- [Racer] Alex: Protagonist of River City Ransom (specifically the ATLUS-published GBA remake.) I need to figure out a good source for voice lines. Rivals: either hand-to-hand fighters (Knuckles, Bark, Shadow) or students...? We'll see depending on what mods become available.
- [Racer] Slash:
- [Follower] Incubus's Bane:
- [Follower] Mitama:
- [Follower] River City Rubbish: Various junk items/weapons from River City Ransom. At minimum there'll be a bouncing tire, others like possibly a metal pipe later.
- [Follower] Control Card: A holographic identification card-slash-console possessed by characters in Filled With Online. Makes a Discord ping noise.
- [Follower] Duster: An automatic vacuum that attacks explorers.
- [Follower] Field-On Enemy: The paladin is dead, FOE!
- Maps
- Item Rain
- I should be using checkpoints for spawning logic, since they contain position and radius information I can use to spawn items.
- Map Trails
- Very basic port.
Maintaining
Simple/completed projects with minimal development effort needed.- Dr. Robotnik's Simpler AnimaL
- Junio Sonic demo skin has a Lua patch for a known hardcode bug. Remove the patch when this gets fixed in 2.X.
Not Interested
Abandoned or irrelevant projects.- Bonkmod
- Meme. Port/improve it yourself if you want to.
- Open Tricks
- I'm pleased with the current implementation of tricks. Port/improve it yourself if you want to.
