Binary update v0.9.4
Hi everyone !
We have a new version :) this time is a performance fix for older systems that reported low frame rates runing the game in OpenGL so we added back DX9 support. Now the game run fast even in my 10 years old notebook :D
Please report any bug you find, ENJOY !! :)

Binary update 0.9.3
There were two major bugs in our track editor (ThunderShop) basically creating new tracks or reloading textures produced a crash in the application.
We received really useful feedback from a user that plays with 8 controllers in the same PC. In that context the game is quite difficult to setup so we did all the changes we could in order to make it easier. As always game design isn't easy since there are many different use cases and some functionality contradicts or makes the use even worse, so we think we've found a balance in the changes and now the game should be easier to setup joysticks for 8 players.
These are the changes:
- Button mapping and player configuration won't be reseted with every new game version
- The first controller used will be the main controller
- In-game pause & camera change button can now be manually setted editing the file ./config/camera.cfg
Enjoy !

Joystick bugfixing
We've recompiled our input library (OIS) and tested successfully with 5 Joysticks at the same time, so 8 Joysticks should now work again.
Also we found that in production the game behaves differently (buttons mapping changes) so we now have it working well out of the box and there is NO NEED to follow that "analog joystick" guide we've published some time ago.
Just leave the configuration on steam by default. Or just in case do this:
Steam->settings->controller->general controller settings and then click on the controllers you have connected to the pc.
Then in the library -> right click in thunderwheels -> properties... -> steam input per game -> "Use your global steam input settings".
That should be your default configuration any way.
If you can test the game with more than 4 controllers or if you have any question please post it here:
