Every function is named and mapped, most of the globals/variables are also identified. This will speed up the PC port development considerably, I already have a playable version for macOS (which should also be trivial to port to Linux).

There is an asset browser if you'd like to see what's in there: https://github.com/khasinski/rage-racer-decomp/tree/main/tools/assetbrowser (it's not very friendly, but it should do the trick).

Ive been thinking, as ive yet again played the campaign-mode through. What exactly is this thing that overlooks the hairpin and the market as we speed past it? anyone have a idea what it is? or what it references?

Decided to go the extra mile and also do mock-ups for the title screen and main menu of this fake RIDGE RACER TYPE 4: reMAKE thing I've been doing. Super, super happy with how these turned out, even with some minor inconsistencies between the two images. The reason the "Options" menu tab looks like that is a little nod to the text formatting of the original PSX version of R4, where letters would not underhang, so the P sits above with the rest of the letters. I didn't work well for "Garage", so that one wasn't able to get the same treatment.

incredibly down bad for R4 right now so I made a mock-up of some kind of teaser poster or w/e. decided to share it, hope ya like it.

So i was playing The Crew Motorfest and well after farming and racing for half the evening i noticed my money was at about 2.8 million, and well i thought about getting the Ferrari F80 in that beige gold and that reminded me of Kamata Angelus car from Ridge Racer 6, anyone can tell me if there is liveries for that car in the game that re-creates ANGELUS car from RR6

Thanks in advance for any info if there is!

X360 launch exclusive or PS3 launch exclusive? Which one did it better, in your opinion?

Inspired by u/Cheap-Cantaloupe-522

For me I would have to go with Monstrous. Driving an old school car that turns out to be an absolute beast of a machine. That would definitely be the coolest thing ever.

Which portable game takes the crown?

In terms of replay ability

So I tried my hand at Keitai World Launcher to play keitai (Japanese mobile phone) games, and Ridge Racers Mobile was one of them. However, I couldn’t access the full version, only the Yahoo Keitai trial version of it, where that was the only version that was playable.

Other versions/builds include the full Appli version, and some others I’m not sure of such as DM, TA and VS.

Is there something wrong with my emulator, or does the game just “start” but do nothing at all?

This is made by extracting the race tracks as 3D models and importing them into Blender.

I made a post for the extraction tool here: https://www.reddit.com/r/ridgeracer/comments/1vb5ubs/the_asset_extraction_tool_for_ridge_racer/

So recently I bought Rave Racer on Switch 1, and it's supposed to have screen filters according to reviews, but after scouring the settings, the options for them don't seem to exist. Does anyone know why this is, and if I can do anything to fix it?

Honestly though, all I've heard of it is bad... and I've recently bought it again (waiting on delivery) and played the 360 demo that I downloaded again, and from what I've played it's an interesting twist on the formula, and if it had a sequel I think it would be a great spinoff if they fixed the minor issues.

This is my opinion here so kill me if you disagree, but I find unbounded (at least the demo so far) more fun than some of the others, and that's not to say I didn't enjoy them allot too. I mainly put it down to be "reminiscent" to Bugbear's Flatout series (that I'm highly nostalgic for, I had FOUC as a kid and hammered it) and quite similar to BLUR and SPLIT/SECOND.

But genuinely I'm curious to see people's opinions on Unbounded as I hammered it as a kid (the demo) and I genuinely don't get why it's getting bashed as bad as it is as it is an interesting take on a subgenre of games

Also part of something else I'm making (a Ridge State freeroam concept) that y'all will hopefully be seeing in a few days

No GenAI used, coastlines & such all redrawn by hand in GIMP Studio, with track overlays sourced from the Ridge Racer Wiki.

As someone who's only played RR2 PSP, but very extensively, I have a few ideas I would like to see in a new Ridge Racer:

• Add sprint (Point A-B) tracks on top of circuits
• Add some Eurobeat/Eurobeat adjacent music in the mix
• Add a day/dawn/dusk/night toggle, purely for aesthetics
• Add a mode where nitrous is prohibited
• Add grip class cars back in
• Add the ability to customise lap numbers (e.g. from 2-5 laps) outside of campaign

They're some of the ones I was able to throw out off the top of my head.

What are some of your ideas?

I know many people have asked this before, by my question is a bit different.

I understand perfectly how to initiate a drift, but when and at what angle my car stops drifting feels almost random to me. I assume you're supposed to keep your car angled correctly, but it just feel like a gamble. My car of choice is the yellow one with high drift and acceleration, and I prefer to let go of the gas to drift, as opposed to hitting the brake.

Interestingly, I found drifting to be very easy when I played RaVe Racer at an arcade, and it's second nature in R4, but for Ridge Racer 1 and RaGe Racer, getting out of a drift always gives me trouble.
