GeneRally Frequently Asked QuestionsThe place with the best and the most GeneRally related answers is the official forum: http://forum.racesimcentral.com/forumdisplay.php?f=199
Who are the authors of GeneRally?Hannu and Jukka Räbinä. Petri and Janne have nothing to do with the game itself, we have just created some additional tracks and cars. How can I add background music to a track?You can't. GeneRally does not support background music. Is it possible to make boats for GeneRally?
Yes it is. I haven't ever tried it, but there are boats
for GR, for example: How do Janne and Petri create their tracks? Do they use a program other than the standard track editor?Windows Paint is the program we use for more accurate editing, but most of the work is still done in the standard track editor. To learn more about creating tracks, please see the tutorial section. How can I import image files in the track editor?Use the "import land" function. There are some requirements for the image file: it has to be in 16 color BMP format, and its resolution has to be 512x512. The easiest way to make sure that the image format is right is to first export a bitmap from the editor ("export land" function) and then edit it. To learn more, see the tutorial section. Where can I get more information on GeneRally?
The official forum is a good place to get answers.
The official homepage: When will next track file be released?Well, this is a question with no answer. Janne has some compatibility problems with his new computer, and that is probably the reason why he hasn't created a new track for a long time. I create tracks when or if I get an inspiration. Those inspirations are quite few today, but sometimes they occur. I have problems creating tracks. What to do?
Check out this thread in the official GeneRally forum: How do I take screenshots in GeneRally?By pressing either F11 or F12 while playing. The created image files will be found in the subfolder "Screens", which is located in the GeneRally folder. The difference between F11 and F12 is that when F12 is used, the resolution of screenshots will always be the same as the resolution of the game. When using F11, the resolution is set in the file "gr.ini". May I submit my own car/track files to be distributed in KANN1STO.com?Some user submitted car files are distributed in KANN1STO.com, but no more will be taken. The reason is that too many car authors used other user's cars as a basis if their own car without mentioning it. Copyright laws are taken seriously in KANN1STO.com. It just took too much time and energy to make sure that a car was not illegal. User submitted tracks have never been released in KANN1STO.com, and the reason is that user made tracks are very common. It would take a lot of time and resources keep such page running. Creating web pages is not very hard nowadays, so if you think of making your own page, go for it! A site doesn't have to be incredibly cool to meet its purpose. How can I turn objects in the track editor?Hold down the secondary button of your mouse and then move the mouse. I had this problem when I tried to create my first track. How do I make water to a track?The water level of a track can be set in track properties ("track properties" button in the track editor). When a spot on a track is low enough, there will be water. So, to get water, first choose a suitable water level and then lower the hmap wherever you want the water to be. |
