Having said that, I've just done a 34 second time, so maybe it's not a problem at all I’ll be playing on PAL too (when the game finally arrives) and I’m pretty sure @masematte is European as well. So even if there is any difference it’s clearly not stopping anyone from taking the first place I didn’t notice any big differences BTW but it’s very hard to see with the low framerate and non consistent driving between different videos.

A few things i learned: -Wait until the gates drop for a faster start, if you hit the gas ahead of time you'll get stuck for a few extra seconds -You can press down to clear second mounds in some areas, and you will go faster over the long bumps if you are pressing down? Anyone experiment with tuning? I tried soft all around (tires/suspension--since it's a soft course) with intermediate gearing. Yeah I was really shocked this wasn't mentioned in the manual at all, at least as far as I could see, but yeah leaning if quite important imo, you get better runs over the larger jumps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LianneJaguar64 Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Slight improvement over my previous time, 34.68s now the time to beat. Or at least, it was, but I've brought it down even more so this morning. Time to beat: 34.04s. So close, but I have doors to hang so I'll let everyone else post some times 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machine Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 My problem isn't with anyone playing PAL or NTSC, it's the times are so low and the game is Supercross 3D! ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilco Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 40.04 Finally got the game! Mayor shoutouts to Telegames for the great service and sending me a sealed copy for a very decent price. But this game is truly terrible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Dangerous Posted November 10, 2020 Author Share Posted November 10, 2020 By truly terrible do you mean "best game ever"!? Is there a way to tell what the actual framerate is? I feel like it's in the 6-12 range. I think if they hadn't done the stupid screen showing the game in the background they could have got another 3-6 FPS out of it.... 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think something like that is possible without a really fancy video capture device, I would love to see it as well but I don’t own one. I do really respect the game for what it’s trying to do, there are a lot of polygons rendered on screen and the controls are very good. The developers where probably just biting of more than they could chew. Edited November 10, 2020 by WilcoL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilco Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 34,94 I didn’t think I’d ever spend an afternoon playing supercross 3D, racing the same map over and over again without any opponents but here I am. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LianneJaguar64 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 As you might be able to tell, I quite enjoy this game. Despite it's flaws, I don't actually think it's that bad. I have to try and get a 33 second time now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find the game to be pretty playable in practice mode, its just when you’re playing tournament mode and have 6 other racers on screen and the framerate drops to about 2 I start to throw up.

I personally haven’t noticed a difference in the rider or bike it self, the different parts you pick are what determines your acceleration, height of your jumps, etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah it doesn't make a difference, the only difference is in the tune up menu, I've tried messing with my set up today but it remains elusive, close was a 34.54 ?

Yeah, just before you do the lap, when you're on the practice/map menu with the bike on it, press right twice until you get start getting options to change your setup 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
