Yup, I've tried that out in the past. It's been around for a while, but it's constantly getting funnier.

It's fun to play around with for a bit, but not thÃ¡t strong to stay interesting, I think.

They are SO nasty on their forum if you ask me.

A whole wiki fyll of rules, you are banned if you say like one thing wrong.

So don't register on their forum. Grumpiest lot ever.

But a nice game.

What exactly do you do in the game?

It is a big sand box for cars trucks and planes, and boats.

So what you are saying is that all you do is drive? Sounds like my kind of game

Yep, Drive, lift, tow. And it has multiplayer. (un stable on vista)

The Captain · « **Reply #7 on:** July 11, 2008, 18:29:31 »

Wow, that looks kinda cool. What about strobe lights? And what happens in multiplayer?

Shipaddict · « **Reply #8 on:** July 11, 2008, 18:30:41 »

You have lights, that flash on police cars etx.

Multiplayer is just free roam. Like SS. But it lags a LOT.

The Captain · « **Reply #9 on:** July 11, 2008, 18:48:28 »

Ok. Is this game availible in stores or must it be bought off the internet? How do you get the strobe lights to work? How many downloads do I have to do in order to get all veicles?

It is open source, free. The game is free, the addons are free. www.rigsofrods.com

There are over 5000 addon vehicles so 5000 downloads if you want them ALL. But you can chose what you want.

Strobe Lights - "m" key

Wow, if only SS could be like that, then I could get NH

Doesent downloading things make you loose RAM?

Shipaddict · « **Reply #12 on:** July 11, 2008, 20:23:52 »

It won't slow down your PC for RoR

The biggest file size is only about 2 mb. Maybe 11 for a pack

NathanC · « **Reply #13 on:** July 11, 2008, 20:36:37 »

Ok, I will talk to my parents about downloading it

. However, you do get a police car, right?

Shipaddict · « **Reply #15 on:** July 11, 2008, 21:00:54 »

Yes, you get a police car.

NO? Playing the game makes you use ram, but the second you close it is back. You lose monthly bandwidth (from your ISP), if you have a bandwidth limit, I don't.

Ok. Because it says I have 1 gig of ram when my parents ordered 1.512 gigs. What is that a result of?

I would assume your computer is limiting it to 1GB (1028MB)

I know made me mad with my last computer too, thought having 4GB of ram would be cool yet it limited me to 2GB, AFTER I BOUGHT 4GB. Of course the store had strict, un-opened return policy...
