Battleracer v1.21 Released

[[MyIS]Spawndemon]

The team behind the Battleracer (http://br.elxx.net/) mod have released the latest version (1.21) of their mod today. This new release brings about some changes and new features. Here is a quick description as well as some of the changes:

This mod strives to turn the battlefields of BF2 into racetracks. You can jump into DPVs on various racetracks (some new, some actually based on BF2 maps) and race! A big feature of Battleracer is the +R stat system. On 'Battleracer Ranked' servers, the results of your races are uploaded to a website where you can keep track of your accomplishments and records.

-The DPV handling has changed, to make it slightly more difficult but also lighter for longer jumps.
-The DPV has a front-mounted minigun that the driver can fire with the AltFire key (default is right mouse button).
-All tracks have been upgraded with more car spawns and spawnpoints, to ensure that everybody gets a place at the start line
-A flare gun has been added to the racer kit. Use it wisely.

Nope, I actually recommend that you uninstall the older version first. Not going to kill you if you forget, though. Either way it works. :D

Kick *** man

cool looks like a lot of fun i might make a movie outa that map if no one minds.

[DoubleVee]

Awesome, I love the 1.2 BR, but this is even more awesome. I got the mod but I don't know if I should install it without uninstalling the older version, so I'm gonna uninstall it anyways just to make sure.

[-X$B-Trivium]

this is awesome i just got done trying it..especially the night map.

[cloakster]

This is a great mod. I like the new maps, except you really need to rmember the whole track to do it in the night. The gameplay is much better, esp. i like that the handling is different, it makes it more of a dirt racing feeling. I cant wait for the new maps to come out! great mod Elxx

[StevenNevets]

I like it, good fixes and add-ons..

But Seaside 2006 is still giving me horrible lag, it did in the orginal version too

[military1]

ummmm people do you mind me making a movie out of these i need some people though.

[frac]

No... We would be more than happy if people would start making movies of our proudly created mod...
I hope you like this mod

Ps. Why do you always say "Good job Elxx"? :P

Best Regards

Good job BR team ;)

This is the best mod' out, no question. Most fun to be had with Battlefield!

[StevenNevets]

Just noticed the knife change! knife snipers, awsome:p

Me and someone *might* make a movie on this mod, but I can't prmoise anything

[Stormtroopr]

What map is that in the pictures? I never saw any night maps.

[Lavadisk]

this is the most finished mod so far. im playing it every day pretty much

[teetsaar123]

Just played it and i say that if they wanna keep making of these night maps then put more lights on the track or a better headlights to the buggyes they are too weak i see almost 1 meter in front of my car!

[Eglaerinion]

Some people have no problems at all on the night maps but we all know why they can see just as well as on any day map. :|:

Anyway great job on the changes and I hope most servers will turn of weapons (or friendly fire) because I want to race. When I want to fight I play PR or vanilla.

Can't wait for the mappack, show some screenies of the maps pretty please with sugar on top!

server is updated to v1.21

[Peiduxtreme]

Can't wait to play this guys... looks awesome.

[Apostle]

Hmm, it can get a little annoying, to say the least, when everyone starts camping the spawns and randomly killing people. It is a bit chaotic, but as long as you just try and race it is very fun.

Spectators should have a knife, or smoke grenade.

[Sir. SashDaMan]

In the next mod if it is possible, they should incorporate the scroll button which will position your head lights to where you want them. Also, instead of a minigun ontop.. maybe the guy who is traveling along could shine a spotlight on the track. :P

I s'pose BF2 isn't that dynamic, but hey if it is.. awesome, GET TO WORK :D

[Sir. Akland]

Ir Teh Win On Ne Serve.

[military1]

but its goona be a cool video.

[domino]

can't wait to try this one out :D

[Karl]

yay for battleracer

[Peiduxtreme]

I attempted to play Seaside 2006, but it was very laggy so I restarted and playing Karkand City was fine... weird. Unfortunatley there were only 4 of us, so I didn't get on the scoreboard, but all round good work... I love it.

[Rexophane]

Thats fawesome. I need to try this sometime.

[imported_bosx2]

WOW!!! respect for working headlights
keep on doing the great, love it

[tjazeSLO]

This is really good mod, I was playing it for some time. ;)

I would like to see a hanbrake in this mode, so you could slide around the corners very well :D.
But this is in your hands, you are making this mode, I'm giving only proposal...;)

[Tiberiansun292]

i have not play this mod. but i have heard good stuff about it.

[Sir. Elxx]

Just to let you guys know, we just released a patch to fix compatibility with BF2 1.3 :)

http://br.elxx.net/

[Apostle]

Great fixes in 1.22. Especially like the 5 second spawn and "Weapons are disabled when 1st place racer crosses the finish line", that's a great change! :D

[MetalMaiden]

Whats everyone waiting for? This mod is awesome!:D Ever since Ive been playing BF2, Id always challenge peeps to race the buggies while waiting for others to join and have blast! Thinking to myself how awesome it would be to have a racing mod for BF2 then a few months later voila! When I have time to play, I find myself choosing to play Battleracer instead of BF2. Being ranked is awesome too! I love it!

WooT! Im 11th in the world!....lol

:D :D GREAT WORK BATTLERACER TEAM!!!:D :D

[Tiberiansun292]
