12-11 Update

Most likely last update.

Tomorrow is "official" presentation.

Received video clips from all German team members, merged them into one film to be shown during presentation.

Car now accelerates and decelerates realistically.

Strange bug remains - when pressing "A" on Xbox controller, game goes immediately to the Credits screen, regardless of current game mode. Keyboard works as planned.

Lap timer and counter have yet to be implemented.

We'll see what happens in the future :-)

12-7 Update

-Jasmin modified the Sounds class to include SoundEffectsInstances; this eliminated an issue where the menu music would stop playing when the user navigates the menu

-I added gameplay music; music switches when user goes from Menu state to Game state. Also added golf cart idling noise when the game runs; have yet to figure out how to stop the sound effect when switching back to the menu. Jasmin is working on it :-D

-Claus is bringing a camera tomorrow to record their section of the presentation

-Shane is working on the powerpoint for Wed/Fri. Have yet to see what content is added

Sound Class is done and working

I uploaded the SoundClass and it is working.

Tortoise gave me an error message, so I'm not sure if it worked out.
