Fixing the "You Win !" corruption (originally posted by Cirus):


--- Quote ---
I know we've had discussion of Modding in the past, and after receiving a copy of "YOU WIN !" Big Rigs, I wanted to immediately change it to the porper "YOU'RE WINNER !". However, I found the instructions to be rather confusing. Also, with many other mods, I figured other people could post things here.

Preparing for Mods

   1. Go to C:\Program Files\Big Rigs Racing (or wherever you installed it).
   2. Right-Click Carz.res and open it with either WinZip on WinRAR.
   3. Inside the new Carz folder, there is CarZ.exe. Right-click it and create a shortcut for it--the default shortcut will not work with the mods.

Changing "YOU WIN !" to "YOU'RE WINNER !"

   1. Go to Carz\Data\Images.
   2. Find "Win.bmp" and "Win_a.bmp". Delete them both.
   3. Replace them with http://somuchdamage.com/stuff/BROTRR/Win.bmp and http://somuchdamage.com/stuff/BROTRR/Win_a.bmp
You're set! Next time you race, you should see "YOU'RE WINNER !".

First, DOWNLOAD THIS FILE:
http://users.ameritech.net/xzz/winners_only.zip

Goto where you installed BROTRR, or grab the CD.
1) Copy "Carz.res" to your desktop and rename it to Carz.zip.
2) Extract Carz.zip with winzip or winrar.
3) Put the "4 new rigs.bat" into the new "Carz" folder and run the .bat file.
4) Play the game by running CarZ.exe and the new cars should show up.
5) Now you're WINNER!!!!
Make sure you can view file extentions and protected operating system files in folder options.
There is no way (yet) to undo the change without reextracting Carz.zip.

Any more mods will be added to this thread in the future.

You can edit every map with MSPAINT.

T-H.bmp controls the hight of the terrain. Black is 0 and white is max hight.

t-l.bmp controls the lights.

the grass, dirt and rock thingies control where the grass rock and dirt textures are placed on the level geomentry, white is where its places, black is absent.

pic here of my test.

sounds awesome,

MY NECK, MY BACK....

WINNER!

This is called a heightmap.  They're pretty simple to make and a simple program can be found here.

I made a map to demonstrate the physics in BROTRR.  Video

EDIT: I can't for the life of me figure out how objects/checkpoints are placed, so can't really make a custom map yet.

WINNER...
