Hi guys,

It's nice to see you're still active and making stuff for RV after, what, 9 years? Pretty impressive!

I thought giving RV another shot. I'm just reluctant of installing it back from CD, then all the patches, then all the tracks, then the unlock cheats. (Plus is a 9-year-old CD readable at all?) So, is there an easier way, like an up-to-date package of everything you maintain somewhere or something?

Also, anybody ever tried running RV in a virtual Parallels machine on a Mac?

'Drop's to knee's and bow's in aww' :o

Dude, long time no see.

The easiest way of installing ReVolt in it's all singing all dancing up to date form is to download this

Would we dare to ask if you plan on any tool/utility updates ?
Or is it more just to past the time and bask in what your early creations have help to develop ? ;)

Good to see you, come back here anytime. B)

MM's link seems good, but you better have some fast internets.

Hey, that's a nice welcome! I should probably immediatly leave again, 'cause I couldn't possible stand up to your expectations...


Anyways, just drove Toyeca through my own track from 2000, now that was weird. I also seem to remember the course in most of the stock tracks after several years. At the same time, I forget important job stuff every day. :(


About tools: Well... I'm not exactly the student with too much time anymore, as I was back then. And I didn't look at these things since 2002 or so. Of course I can look into easy things and see if I remember what I did there. Did you have anything specific in mind?

I think urnemanden has hit the right button there.

What most poeple are wanting are the old tool's to work on a new system & OS, is that something you could possibly look into ?

From your little moment of concentraded hard work, you helped open the flood gates of imagination.
We are under praising you, trust me. ;)

No, but RV does work in Linux using Wine which is almost as good depending on your preferences.

I'd imagine virtual machines are pretty lousy running any games.

And welcome back ali! There's tons of great tracks released during your absence that owe their existence to the work you did.

I know this is a whole drop, but why hasn't anyone made a GUI for RV-Glue?

now that would be cool!

Most of the things you need to know about rvglue is in the documents that comes with the pack

Hello again ali.
its nice to hear from you again mate its been a long time.
I am still producing things for ReVolt dude but i am holding off from releasing them as yet. I may one day feel the need to let emm go.
I will continue to sing your praises as far as your tools go as they still treat me fine and let me create random stuff in max and make things i can drive around lol.

If you stick around dude it will be a great help and a boost to this community.

Laterz...

"The Gluer"

Quite fitting, I will admit.

Hmm...
"The Gluer" sounds a bit tacky to me (if you pardon the pun) :P , I would have suggested something more like 'The Fixer' or 'Bond Technician' :D

Hey Skitch, you lazy sod! Get that kit done or I will book a
flight to Limeyland and kick your bottom all over town!
How about taking an hour off from club hopping and get
into Max?

Edit--

I see my word for 'bottom' has been replaced by Manmountain
from the original . All I got to say about that is potatoe!

Posted: 07 Sep 2008, 16:06

lmao hill !!

I am doing it ok!!!

And yes i was club hopping yet again last night and i feel quite bad at the mo so no shouting please.

I am still battling with "Toy World gone Large" at the mo but as soon as its finished i will be on the kit again.

Love to all lol

lols. actually, i had "Glue sniffer" written into the field to go with the pub theme, but then i decided otherwise. Gluer is something special, technician or fixer sounds too general for ali to me.
