Help for a newbie pls.

so i wanted to do some racing on the island map but all i get were crashes when i was getting faster , i move straight ahead and try full spead and then my car moves into the tree left from the street (even if i steer against it ) ...I m losing grip really fast and i cant drift (without crashing into a tree, falling from a cliff).

and sometimes i spawn my car and i cant drive, it just stands still (i know parking brake and stuff like that) but i cant drive backward or forward with parking brake disabled !?
Could someone help me out pls ?

 

This game is based on realism so cars will get more uncontrollable the faster you go. Use the slower, smaller cars first and then move up to the bigger cars. Also, shift-B, or just B, can't remember excatly which, will change the steering type. That might help with handling.

Try hitting Q or tab to get the car going.

 

yea thanks i tried it with this little VW (Covette) and it was smoother than this racing car ...with the racing car i cant drive straight .

 

How is the covet a VW?

 

it just reminds me on the old VW of my grandpa , thats all .

PS. I ve a question ...sometimes when i want to "drift" or turn left or right my car didnt turn even if the wheels are pointing in the right direction !?(right or left side)
and is there a seperate brake button to drift ?

 

This is a simulator. There isn't a specific button to drift.

Also the Covet is based on a japanese car.

 

Ok I am using this thread so I don't have to write a new one. I have a really stupid problem that is probably really easy to fix but i can't figure it out.

All I am trying to do is add an engine to the pickup using the v8 code as a base but after I make the power changes to it and rename it the game only loads the base v8. Is there a part of code my blind eyes aren't seeing?

I have attached my version of the engine code if there is someone willing to go over it really quick I would greatly appreciate it.


Edit: Never mind I figure out the engine problem
