The original track is now named "School's Out! 2", so both tracks can be distinguished better. School's Out 1 (this track) only take place at the highschool area. It's very short and fast. There is rain in the reverse version. The raceline follows the exact same route than in the original School's Out!, so don't expect new stuff. I hope you enjoy the track anyway. ;) Thanks a lot to Stingox, for helping me with the pickup placements! Have fun! Kiwi C O M P A T I B I L I T Y ═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ + This track is only compatible with RVGL 20.0210a or later. It's not compatible with the original (Vanilla) Re-Volt or Re-Volt 1.2. + For best performance and increased graphic quality, it's highly recommended to use the shader renderer. Set 'shaders = 1' in 'rvgl\profiles\rvgl.ini' where 'rvgl' is the location of your RVGL installation. K N O W N I S S U E S ═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ Issues caused by not using the shader renderer: + A much higher chances to get framedrops. + Graphical issues, especially flickering translucent faces and lights. Issues caused by using an outdated RVGL version: + Camera sweep ("startgrid zoom") will not work if a RVGL version older then 20.0210a will be used. + Issues with missing lights/shadows when not using RVGL version 19.1001a or later. The limit for lights was increased from 256 to 1024 in this version. + Issues with missing textures when using an RVGL version before 19.0120a. The support for up to 64 texture pages was introduced in this version. T R I V I A ═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ + The high school is named after the people who created the game concept for Re-Volt in the late 90s: Paul Phippen and Simon Harrison. + The skateboard design with the half-naked woman was part of Re-Volt's Alpha and Demo versions, and was replaced by the orange texture in the final versions. + The logo from the fictional high school basketball team "Angry Pangas" is based on a picture of Panga which can be found in the gallery image lib4b.
