Be part of Speed Dreams

You can contribute to Speed Dreams as an "end-user" and / or as a "developer":

  • as an end-user (check the Download page on SF.net for how to get source / binary releases and our Wiki (under construction) to get more information on the project):
    • help the dev team to test pre-releases
    • suggest improvements, express your support or disgust about changes
    • ask questions about compilation / build from source problems
    • ...
    all through our users mailing list: speed-dreams-users@lists.sourceforge.net
    or our bug / feature tracker
    or our users chat room on JabberFr
    or our at our Freenode IRC chat #speed-dreams
  • as a developer (see the Code menu in SF.net for how to get the source tree from the Subversion repository):
    • as guest contributor, you may propose your adds / improvements as patches (patch files built via diff -Naur or equivalent) against the latest source tree, and send them to us as attached files through our devel mailing list speed-dreams-devel@lists.sourceforge.net or our bug/ feature tracker; feel also free to join the dev. team daily discussions and monthly meetings in our developers char room on JabberFr; you don't have write access yet to the SVN repository, but it's up to you to prove us your skills and innovation ability as a programmer, a software architect, an artist, ... as well as your self-discipline in testing ;-) ... and that way, you may enter step by step in the dev. team ...
    • as a registered developer, you now have write access to the SVN repository and can simply commit your adds / improvements ; that way, they can be easily tested and reviewed by anyone updating his working copy of the source tree; but be responsible, never forget that democracy is the main rule in the dev. team, so, before committing and even begining to work on, explain first the details of your project, ask everyone's opinion ... enjoy each other skills and thoughts to improve your work ! And you're likely to endorse some particular development mission or become the recognized expert of the team on some subject ...
    • There is a Freenode IRC chat at the channel #speed-dreams-dev too


Your contribution to Speed Dreams may take place in many domains :

  • The core code itself, and its numerous subjects : user interface, physics engine, 3D graphics engine, race management, input device related code, file formats, ... to enhance, optimize, make more up-to-date, fix bugs, port to another platform ...
  • the robot(s) code (AI racing)
  • the cars design or tuning
  • the tracks design
  • the documentation
  • ... feel free to suggest ...

About Speed Dreams

Speed Dreams is a fork of the famous open racing car simulator Torcs, aiming to implement exciting new features, cars, tracks and AI opponents to make a more enjoyable game for the player, as well as constantly improving visual and physics realism.

In other words, Speed Dreams is the place:

  • where developers can try their ideas and have every chance to get them released to the end-users (democracy is the main principle ruling the dev team),
  • where end-users can enjoy the completion of these ideas and give their opinion about it, and/or make new suggestions.

So, if you find your or some people's Torcs patch proposals don't integrate the official release as quickly as you would have loved, you have reached the right place !
