I could tell this: it took me 4-5 minutes to beat his Spiral time, but that's about the only level I'm good at :oops: The first time we checked TorInges tt was after about 16 hours, and of course we were all surprised to see it was as good as 38.00.58... Then he had to find a level to improve. As fa...
Well sure he had some luck, especially on Serpents. But when whatching him on that lev I noticed he is close to getting a good bounce almost every time. And on a lev like quick round he seemed to be able to finish it in 38.xx in 20-30% of the tries. The uphill trick on qr he made at least 50% of the...
No, we didn't play on our own computers. Luckily one of the computer rooms here has very good comps for elma playing (Win2000, 1.4GHz AMD cpus and Geforce2 video cards), a lot of the tricks are possible and you can turn vsync on/off. TorInge just brought his own keyboard. Actually the keyboards aren...
Well, I can tell you this: I was there. I saw it. This is what I feel: :? :lol: 8O 8) :D I'm amazed that you can drive so many good times on so many different levels in such a short time. I'm so happy that you can actually be that good without cheating. And again, I'm very amazed by t0r's skills, he...
Hmm, fair enough. Something Ive never totally understood about framerate - if we see in 24 fps, surely everything above that is pointless...? On a tv everything above 24 fps is pointless, because the TV-images automatically contain motion blur. On a computer screen, however, it's different, because...
Omg, now I have an average tt too :D Which means I just broke the 44 minute limit in average tt :) I god rid of all of Terrance's times like 5-6 weeks ago with that excellent program, then I had to drive a lot of sucky times to fill up the lists. Had to finish Lab pro like five times or something (d...
omg I'm very happy today with my spiral time :D I'm sorry zweq, I wanted a wr badly and this was the only one I could do. It was nothing personal... Thanks to Jalli (the only one who knew I was driving this lev) who has encouraged me the last three weeks. He is the one who taught me that driving a w...
SpeaK, what other factors are those? (Out of curiosity I would like to know) What I mean is: When testing auto-play levels, the bike ends up differently on different rides (without pressing any keys). What other factors could there possibly be than small variations in the integral steps? I am aware ...
Does any games work exact the same on all computers/settings ? I guess nat. It is possible to make a game's physics independent of framerate, but this is not the usual way to do it. Usually you do a certain number of physics updates per frame, which makes the result dependant on framerate (the resu...
I meat Jalli 2 days ago, since he has moved to Trondheim. Now he lives just 2 minutes (on bike) from where I live :) This is the first kuski I've meat, except for my brother Terrance of course... though I did run into a guy who had 53.xx on headbanger once (better than me at the time) but he had nev...
milagros is right, mathematically. The question is when and why the limit will be reached. This is my view, in the light of statistics: As WRs are getting harder to beat, new WRs are getting less and less probable. The average time between new WRs will increase, maybe months and then years. Finally,...
ok, but i can't that. is there a prog that does that? or isn't that public? Neither can I, but "they" obviously have a program that does this. I guess it's the same program that was used to catch the state.dat-cheaters some time ago. If it has been made public, I sure would like to know...
#2: how the hell did you guys time it to a thousandth of a second?? I guess if you know the .rec file format, which probably saves frames, then you can calculate the speed of the bike at the last frame before it hits the flower. When you know the position and speed, it's easy to calculate exactly h...
2. Jalli 2. most intelligent kuski: Jalli, Stini 2. most intelligent kuski: Jalli 2. The most intelligent Kuski Jalli I think Phillip and (...) Damn, I've got to start talking to other people than Jalli :lol: I don't know too many kuskis so well, but Jalli seems very smart (though he didn't make it...
A could be: (2^20996011)-1 (this was Jalli's answer, but this one work with A+1, A+2, ..., A+10000) None of you seem to have understood the question. You are supposed to find a formula for A, like: A(n) = 3n + 5n^2 (this example is completely wrong, of course) The formula should guarantee that the ...
if A have to be a whole number you would like to find a real lot of following numbers that are not primes, so you would need the biggest prime number... hmm, if you know the biggest prime number you may tell me and mail me the proof for it Yes, A has to be a whole number. You do not need the "...
2: How many zeroes are there in the end of 1000! ? Ok, here we go: 1000! = 1000 * 999 * 998 * 997 * 996 * ... * 2 * 1 This equals some number followed by a number of zeroes: (some number) * 10 * 10 * 10 * 10 * .... * 10 Now the question is how many 10's are there at the end? It can be rewritten lik...
Light the first rope in both ends, and the second rope in one end. When the first rope burns out, light the second one in the other end. This would be 45 secs!
1: You got two ropes and one lighter. If you light a rope in one end it takes a minute untill it is all burnt up. However the speed of burning is not linear. That means that when 30 seconds has gone it is not necessarily that half the rope has been burnt. How can you measure 45 seconds using these ...
I thought maybe I should change my nick in mopolauta, kuski gallery and records list: Thomas [TP] --> Phillip [TP] When I started playing multiplayer with my brother, we came up with the names Terrance & Phillip and started using those in the state. But I still used Thomas when I played single p...
well howabaout with the start posted in the new styles thread? Actually, as far as I know, the world record is driven without that fast start. So if someone could do it, at least 1.16.XX is possible 8O Anyway, would'nt it be boring if all the WR-styles were known? Now we can all sit around and wond...
Here's a 1-2 seconds faster start on Animal Farm: 31start.rec It seems hard to jump far enough to the left, but it would surprise me if it was impossible :wink: I actually made this one accidentally, I still haven't finished the level with the moporec style. (I have only gotten over the rooster's he...
Interesting info! Then the supervolt is 3 times stronger than a normal volt (in most cases). "in most cases": Does this mean the volt is not exactly the same every time? I have noticed this: -let the bike fall freely without rotating -press left once -press right once -bike now rotates to ...
I used a training lev first, and made it 10 times or so, then tried the real lev. I had to play a few hours before I made it, but the ride sucked: 03:10:18 Thomas After this I didn't play the level for a long time. Later, after several days with hours of playing, I made an ok ride (for me at the tim...
Take a look at these: Level 18, Spiral: 00:45:97 Thomas 00:45:99 Thomas 00:45:99 Thomas 00:45:99 Thomas 00:46:00 Thomas 00:46:00 Thomas 00:46:01 Thomas 00:46:02 Thomas 00:46:03 Thomas 00:46:04 Thomas Also, my top three on Serpents Tale are identical (same 100th of a second!) 8O (It is 1:08:63 or 64,...
I think it's easier to make good times now than a couple of years ago. I don't know if it is because I am older now (21) or because I have driven alot more... Three years of practice should give results
