Title: Number not visible on OTK
Post by: tebbers14 on January 21, 2015, 11:25:08 PM
Lately, I have noticed, with the OTK, that when the kart as at speed, the number on the rear bumper disappears. This occurs on ALL engines. It is very annoying and I though to shout it out.

+1 if you are seeing the same issue that I am seeing.

+1 although it's not solely this. I believe the issue pertains to drawing distance, as if you get right up to the rear bumper of the kart in front of you, you can see the numbers. However, once out of the extremely short distance, the numbers become invisible. From what I know on how this worked back a year and a half ago when Birel-Rotax42 first did the Rotax Junior, he had a similar issue where you had to get close to the rear of the kart to see the engine model, and if you were too far back, you couldn't see any motor at all. The fix was fairly simple and hopefully a bug fix should be easily fixable on KRP as well.

I know, but as i said i dont care about the numbers of other drivers, so it is a small problem that doesnt need as much work as f.ex. the netcode.

Personally, I would like to see 34 karts. Net code is fine as long as you are running on an Internet connection that is sustainable.

Hope you know I was one of the people who came up with the fix... Game is still limited to 12 viewable karts. We may switch to rFactor soon with fields over 14 karts quite frequently.

Yeah i know that Braden Eves posted the fix. I can imagine that rfactor fits better for a series with much karts.

I posted the fix in a full tutorial after Birel-Rotax42 enlightened us on how it worked, to help everyone else on here. After numerous builds without care to make us see more than 12 karts and be somewhat on level with every other racing sim in existence instead of years behind, we are still at that maximum. SKWC has grown to turnouts of upwards of 20 karts at times, and it sucks having to tell drivers that they cannot race the final due to PiBoSo's inability to simply allow us to see more than those 12 karts. Technically we obviously could let everyone start, but admins wouldn't be able to see all of the wrecks and carnage and with the current multiplayer netcode having a ton of lag its also hard to have clean racing.

Long story short, the multiplayer in this game REALLY needs to be focused on more.
