Hi everyone,

my name is bitflip, I'm from Sweden, and a big fan of SuperTuxKart! I've been playing a lot and recently set up my own dedicated STK server to host races with family and friends. It's running smoothly otherwise, great ping from Europe!

The Issue:
In the online server browser, my server displays the Iranian flag instead of the correct German one.
   

The server is physically hosted in Nürnberg, Germany (Hetzner).
If I check it with some IP tools, it shows the correct location. Only in STK it shows the wrong one.
   

Details:

• Server Name: Bitflips STK Server DE|SE|CH (private)
  
• Public IP: 91.98.127.215
  
• Server Version: 1.5
  

It's about the oldCar again

The library object has interaction set to ghost. If I use it, I can't edit its SuperTuxKart properties, because it's a library object. But it looks like there are custom properties that mirror the STK ones. But setting the interaction and shape custom properties to static and box respectively does nothing - the oldCar is still a ghost. What am I doing wrong?

I wanted to add the vehicles/oldCar library model to the Ravenbridge Mansion track and animate it
so that it slowly drives along a section of the road. But somehow, the model never appears in the game.

I suspect it has to do with the fact that it's a library object, because when I animated one of the graves
that were not library objects but simple models unique to the Ravenbridge Mansion track, it worked.

I then thought I'd append the oldCar from the library instead of linking it but it links it even whem I do
File > Append (which I googled that it may have to do with the oldCar.blend linking some other stuff).

So, is there a way to take the oldCar and make it drive on the road of the Ravenbridge Mansion?

I use Blender 2.79.

I appreciate all helpful advice!

EDIT: I looked at the Las Dunas Arena .blend file and it animates the blimp from the library!
I don't see what they are doing different than me. Any ideas?

Hello my dear Tuxers,

Me and a friend of mine would like to suggest new skidding-mechanics to maybe enhance the fun:

- Three skidding stages (maybe yellow, red, purple)
- Being able to jump straight by pressing the skid button without steering
- Being able to jump over gum and small patches of off-road
- No delay when skidding into the opposite direction than before, even after getting a skid-bonus
- Higher steering angles award the skid bonus sooner

These are just a few ideas! Some of them may be more diffecult to implement than others.
What do you guys think in terms of the added fun / difficulty of implementing?

With speedy greetings,
DRS

I tried to edit a standard track in Blender but I don't see any textures.  Switching viewport shading mode to material preview or render preview doesn't help. I tried several standard tracks but it looks the same - everything is gray.
It's the same with library objects (the tvVan, etc.)- they're gray regardless of the shading mode.
I did install the Stk Blender scripts.
What am I missing?

EDIT: Everything stayed gray even after exporting the track and playing it in STK.

Well, as you must know, some players plays well in PC and Mobile (me, FabianF, GeorgeCabillur, etc), even Fabian played ij ranked with two ranked accounts in 2020/21 (I guess): FabianF and MobileFabianF, but both accounts are given points punishments, cuz a hidden(?) rule: "It's forbidden of play ranked with more than a account".
I guess this rule is very stupid in case of "multicontroller" players, because the level of hability of playing in Mobils is higher (without speedometer, hard controls, etc, etc), so I guess this rule can be removed in case of the player uses a account that suggests that this guy is in Mobile (like MobileCream (MOBILE) and CreamBR (PC)).

Hello.

I'm having trouble finding information about the server setup.  I did follow the guide on Github and was able to get it installed on Debian 13.

This is running in a VM I gave it 4 cores @ 2.6Ghz and 4G of ram.  

Install seems to work fine.  Local play is solid. WAN is not.  I forwarded TCP/UDP to 2757 - 2759.  

When I try to from outside the LAN (Hotspot) I can see the attempt on the server but it times out.  

I have double checked that iptables and UFW are not installed PFSense is the only firewall 

I've been back and forth through the config and even forced the port to 2759.  I show it used that at launch.  

It shows up in the server list 

Stuck.  Please help

Hello SuperTuxKart community! Thanks for developing this fun kart racing game.

I think a useful feature to implement into SuperTuxKart Evolution would be enabling new types of player data to be saved to an online account. In addition to friends and achievements, could a player's

• Story mode progress
  
• Favorite karts and tracks
  
• Custom grand prix
  
• Installed add-ons
  
• Game settings and keyboard/controller configurations
  
• High scores
  

Hi, thanks for making this great little game! 
I have never played games but my kids are having a hard time at the moment so I thought I'd find them one game I can install on Linux to help pass the time. 
I can't work out how to do 2 player. they would LOVE this. I am on Fedora. I can't understand the settings, I tried setting up 2 players, tried plugging in a second USB keyboard, got nowhere. Is it doable?

Also, is it possible to use game controllers, for example if I bought a couple of used Playstation 1 controllers off ebay or whatever, would they work?

thanks again

When I tried to play the Noinexu Shore track on mobile STK, some parts of the track are missing (e.g. the sand bridge you normally go under right at the beginning). That way, it's impossible to follow the normal drive path. The AI karts try to do it anyway and go off track right away. You can complete a whole lap but the lap is much shorter than its supposed to be and the game play makes no sense.

Has anyone else noticed this problem?
Can anyone fix it, please?
