Classic racer: Stunt Car Racer now playable at 50 FPS
The classic Stunt Car Racer previously had the issue that the screen was only refreshed 12 times per second - regardless of how much processing power the computer had. Removing this limitation was long considered too complex, as the timing of all in-game processes - the speed of the cars, crashes, collisions, etc. - was directly tied to the number of frames generated.
But that’s exactly what the developer of a new WHDLoad install for the game has now accomplished: His modified version runs at 50 (PAL) or 60 (NTSC) frames per second without affecting gameplay in any way. As a bonus, there are also eight new tracks taken from a 2012 mod called "Stunt Car Racer - The New Tracks."
The installation package titled "StuntCarRacer Unleashed" requires WHDLoad and a floppy disk of the original game. The game does not run any faster on an A500, so a computer with a more powerful processor is recommended.
