Cool 
ah, guess I blew threw that without looking, well that does make the game quite a bit cooler
Very nice. Could use some more sound effects, and the selection of car/track etc. should be available in-game so it can be changed easily after every race.
nice work though, very smooth.
Forgot to mention that I was testing on OS X 10.3.4, JRE 1.4.2_05

thx. i still havenāt figured out how to play sound at different frequencies (pitch). does anybody have a source code snippet or a good tutorial for me?
now i have build in some engine sounds. the samples could be a bit better but i like it.
i have now added a two player splitscreen version of the game. you can find the link on the bottom of the start page (http://www.cocktailz.org/nano.html). the collision handling is quite bad, but iāll keep on working on it. maybe someone has some good tips/links/tutorials regarding collision handling for meā¦ ???
Howabout making a ārealā game out of it, using webstart? ;D 
Great game and perfect for a browserā¦

never done thatā¦
maybe iāll read more about this when everything is finished.
[quote]blah*3, where you not asked to accept a security cert. by the applet? I was. Looks like yours didnāt ask?

OK I found the problem.
Author: you are using a certificate that is INVALID, it expired in May 22 2004!
I suspect that if you have a legal cert it would just run fine for me.
Also, whatās the point in making everyone else click an extra time to OK an invalid cert? just get rid of it, no?
Why is it signed? Why is it an Applet? :-/
Canāt say anything about the game itself. It crashed my browser.
/me disabled applets again
the reason for signing the applet is that i needed it for the two player network game mode (but this didnāt work well) and currently for the cache feature. the game stores downoaded images and sounds on the harddisk if possible. this is only possible with a signed applet.

youāre the first one with such a problem. what browser are you using?
Iāve had numerous problems with the current latest Mozilla version crashing on applets too, so I too have applets disabled. Shouldnāt be a problem - itās only when a site does something stupid (like using an invalid cert wink :P) that appletviewer chokes.
To be honest, I just donāt see the point of having an invalid cert. OK, so it works for some people but technically speaking it shouldnāt - an invalid cert is ā¦ INvalid.
youāre the first one with such a problem.
LOL. Guess again why the vast majority of people here prefers webstart 
Firefox 0.9.3 and JRE 1.4.2_05
Downloading imagesā¦ well you can do that with webstart without requiring a cert (through the download service).
of yourse, yourāre completely right. i have signed the applet with a cert which is valid for one year from now. could you please test again? thx.

as i already mentioned, i will read more about the webstart thing. currently i have absolutely no knowlege about it.
i think iāll add another switch on the start page which controls if the filsystem cache shall be used or not. if not, an unsigned applet can be used.
by the way, a new track (āSwirlā) is online now. iām looking forward to seeing your new lap/race records on that one ā¦
iāve added a pause function, for those of you who were missing it.
I just noticed an irretating thing >:(. in the root of my c: harddrive I found this directory ā_NanoMachinez_Cacheā. You should at least put any data like this in the users home directory, which you find with System.getProperty(āuser.homeā).
