Moria's Race Addons

This page will be updated to include new addons if and when they will be published.

There is this game called SuperTuxKart that I didn't develop. But which is among the best Free Software games out there. And they have a way to make and publish addons. This is a list of addons that I made for SuperTuxKart.

The list will go from new to old.

Tutorial Truck

Made as a part of a video tutorial about how to make a kart for SuperTuxKart.

Bayhem!

Inspired by Michael Bay.

Dani's Race Karting

To promote Dani's Race

[embedded image]

Kart Track

To promote the new Mastodon account of Moria's Race I made this tracky track.

Circuit Board

When a pun is intended.

Subway

I'm getting crazier. This time it's a full town with working traffic, a radio station and a working subway system.

Car Park

This time I made a claustrophobic tiny track with a spooky original score to test people's nerves.

Japanese Garden

Inspired by the Anderson Japanese Gardens in Rockford Illinois ( which was suggested by the user named @RowdyJoe ) I made a Japanese Garden with roughly the layout of the real place.

Insanity

Long time ago one of the only games that worked on GNU / Linux was Trackmania. Since then GNU / Linux started supporting way more games. And I stopped playing proprietary games. But there was nothing wrong with channeling the nostalgia and trying to make an insane track for SuperTuxKart.

Interplanetary

I was bored out of my mind. And just making a normal track again made no sense to me. So I made a track where you go around the whole planet and beyond.

[embedded image]

Warehouse

I used to work on a Warehouse. And while I was there I always imagined to race the whole place through. So I made a warehouse track. It's inaccurate in a lot of ways. But it's fun. And that's the most important part.

Snow Peak Rework

There is this very popular track in SuperTuxKart called "Snow Peak" that a lot of people like to play, but that looks like complete ass. So I decided to update it's graphics.

Oliver Up-Class

There is this very popular track in SuperTuxKart called "Oliver Up-Class" that a lot of people like to play, but that looks like complete ass. So I decided to update it's graphics. Though I ended up making a complete redesign of the classroom. Some people find my version way too colorful.

Cinema

I was pissed that nobody watched my film Moria's Race. And so to calm myself down I've put 3 of my films into a cinema. And made a racing track through it.

Richard Stallman

The game has a GNU mascot which is just a gnu flying on a carpet. But I think they were going for the famous Richard Stallman look with it. Where he used to put a funny shirt and pretend to be a wizard. I was inspired by it. To be honest since then RMS got cancer. And he doesn't look like a wizard anymore. Hope he will get better.

Israel Ramat Gan

I was walking outside of my house the other day and decided to procrastinate away from the Moria's Race project and instead recreate the area and make a SuperTuxKart track from it.

Moria's Race Addons

For the promotion of the movie Moria's Race I made several addons for SuperTuxKart. And I think that they were somewhat successful. They consist of various characters and areas from the film, converted to the format of the game. Some changes also include resizing normal sized cars from the film, into caricatured versions that look consistent with the rest of the game.

We need to start Forking Software more!

As pointed out in my last article, the developers of UPBGE ( a game engine I use for my game ) decided to include slop-code into the software. And starting with version 0.5 it is "tainted by Ai". After that post I found a small repository on codeberg, which lists various other programs that are also sloppy. At first I sunk in with the feeling of dread and a desire to give up. Even the Linux Kernel was mentioned.

But then...

Sometimes a program might have a deceiving function that is intended for Fraud.

Armageddon is... fuck, I LOVE MICHAEL BAY

It is rumored that Michael Bay's Armageddon is shown periodically at NASA to the people working there as a test of how much inaccuracies they can spot. The movie is fucking stupid if you want to think about anything remotely realistic. The science... what science? The film has never heard of it. The characters are fucking degenerates. The lack of tone is only rivaled by Nicolas Winding Refn interviews. And yet somehow I cannot find myself hating on this movie.

I'm Still Alive

As I said previously in another article I am in a very bad position financially. To the point that back when I wrote it I believed that I might actually be dead. Later I wrote an update that didn't work much as an update, because it was more a philosophical piece about how I want to get out my problems ( as in how do I justify trying to get out of my problems ). So I hope I will not diviate this time around from actually writing an update.

The Real Steven Spielberg

Yesterday I went to buy myself a hamburger that I allow my fat ass only about once a month or so. When it was time to take the finished package ( since I prefer to eat at home ) the cashier lady called me "Steven". I blushed and felt both amazing and embarrassing. No, she doesn't know that I do movies and that soon a movie of mine comes out. She has no actual idea who I am. That was the first time I ever saw her. It's just when you order something, their machine asks you to write a name, so they could call you when it's ready. Writing my own name would be a horrible privacy problem. So instead I write names of celebrities. And this time I wrote "Steven Spielberg".

Breaking The Waves

Lars Von Trier is an interesting filmmaker. He directs mostly very depressing movies that are very hard to watch. Breaking The Waves is an interesting case study in his filmography because on some weird level this is one of the rare examples of a Lars Von Trier film with a happy ending. Even though you could perhaps argue that the ending is nowhere near happy at all.
