Awesome game, deserves 5 stars. If you love driving games then you need to play this. Sure the graphics arnt that great, but the gameplay is excellent. Trust me on that.
I also love the old school music, but it does annoy alot of people. I wouldnt mind some midis for this game, but I havnt been able to find any.

I played that game to no end when I was young. It was interesting, but they do have stange physic laws out there... ;)
FreeFreddy
18-09-2004, 07:07 PM
And little too limited area for tracks... But at it's age this is still much. And the physical law is still better than on some other games of that time. ;)

Skid Vicious, actually.

Great game this one...specially the option to make levels by yourself and then have a big crash on the end in stead of the finishing line... :bleh:

The first ever game I ever had, my dad bought it for me for xmas once when I was about 7... Ahh the memories, it was called "4D Sports Driving" back then. I remember making ridiculously large jumps that you could only make in the jaguar or the indy car :)
FreeFreddy
27-09-2004, 03:02 PM
Indy car seems to be the best, but not on all levels. ;)
On some of them it's too fast so you get crashed into some obstacles. In that case there's another car needed.
Anonymus Maximus
31-10-2004, 07:04 PM
I have never seen a racing game with a better editor for tracks
if you place a big house between a jump only the indy car would
be able to do it :D
but somehow the copyprotection at the beginning doesnt let me play
in former times i normally pressed the escape button and then worked
but it dont work on this version can anybody tell me why?
:sniper: :Titan: :rifle: :Brain:
nice smilies :D

Maybe you should try and look for other *.bat or *.exe files. For me it's start.exe instead of ST.exe and everything's :ok:
Guest
31-10-2004, 08:16 PM
yeah thanks for your help
now it works again
i wonder why anybody doesnt give this game a new paint with 32 bit graphics
and just leave all the other stuff like it is. maybe some more special
damage details but that should be all

Eagle of Fire
21-12-2004, 05:00 AM
How about using Stunt.com instead of Stunts.com?
For the record, the game works flawlessly with VDMSound, both in term of sound and speed.
Man, I just played because I played that game so much when I was young I just had to try to beat some of the scores up there...
Bleh, I've beat every score by at least one minute on first try! They did not even use the best car, the F1 one... :rolleyes:

BTW:
This is why I wanted to have an international subforum, so such question in native languages would apear in the apropriate section, so people who speak the language could read it and others wouldn't be confused!
Havell
25-12-2004, 10:36 AM
I could figure that one out, with the "safety alarm uit" and the same question as the last three people.
Sebatianos
25-12-2004, 10:42 AM
Well the people before this person wrote in english, so maybe this person didn't know what they were talking about!
I think Tom should answer this guy. He speaks the language!
Eagle of Fire
25-12-2004, 11:26 AM
Other language or not this is really getting stupid. Not only it's one of the most easily self corrected problem, but it's been written just in front of them. The problem is that they don't care to read 2 posts above and still stupidly ask.
I'm going to ignore that particular question from now on.

That is Dutch.
I speak Norwegian.
:bleh:
Sebatianos
25-12-2004, 11:57 AM
Sorry - my bad!
In that case not even the international site would help - we still have no translation into Dutch (that's why I automatical asumed it's one of the langauges we have).
Havell
25-12-2004, 11:59 AM
That's because most Dutch people speak English as they are such great linguists.
Guest

Whenever I try to play it it asks for these passwords from the manual. If I answer it incorrectly, it crashes my car. What are the passwords? Can I get a copy of the manual somewhere?
Tom Henrik
27-12-2004, 12:44 AM
I have changed the review, hopefully it will decrease the number of people asking what to do.
Dear guest.
There are several .exe files in the game. One of them will let you play the game without having to answer the safety questions. :ok:
Eagle of Fire
27-12-2004, 03:08 AM
Thanks Tom.
If you want to know, it's "Stunt.exe" which is the cracked version and "Stunts.exe" which ask for the security codes (and is also the original uncracked version). You might want to precice that in the review.
Tom Henrik
27-12-2004, 08:10 AM

Try "TrackMania" or - as soon as it is released: "Crash Day".
Personally, I hate TrackMania, but many people compare it to Stunts/4D Sports Driving.

It is a complete remake aiming to recreate the original and go beyond, with multiplayer and modern graphics (also multiplatform).
It is Free Software (http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html) under the GNU General Public License (http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html) (GPL).
BTW: The original Stunts was declared freeware by the authors some years ago. There are 4 versions: Stunts (Broderbund) 1.0, 1.1; 4d sports driving (Mindscape) 1.0, 1.1. There are subtle but important differences among game versions, like solid ceiling in tunnels, and different car tunings). For more details look here (http://www.kalpen.de/).
The cracks for the game require you to press enter when it asks for the question (don't try answering). Back in the day (without the cracks) i used to type them from memory, there weren't too many keywords anyway. Too bad i seem to have lost my manual.

That's weird, I've never heard that before.
Are you racing against an opponent? And did you try racing on a different track, to see if your car crashes there as well?

I think this happens when there's a sort of mistake in the track, an impossible sequence of parts for example.

What a hoot to search and find an old favourite. I built dozens of tracks my then young son raced (much better than me!) including the best one that had a series of jumps that would get you going absolutely flat out in the fastest car, then into a double bowl. To make it thru the bowl at 300 - well, I did it once only and it's a memory forever.

Makes me want to play Stunts again, even if it's been 10 years or so since I last played it.
I bet it would take me some time to get the hang of taking corners again, that was always my weakest point.
sorry, how can i play stunts without entering all the time the words on the manual? i don't even have it? how can i do?

dont use stunts.com use stunt.com to start the game then press enter at the security question.
wow, I love this game.. my shiny new 3 gig computer and its about 70% old games :D
why did the person leave stunts.com in the game folder??
then the original stunts.com could be deleted and stunt.com renamed?
save a lot of confusion

STUNT.COM will probably be the TSR-crack and STUNTS.com the main executable. That means you need STUNTS.COM to run the game and STUNT.COM to fool the copy protection.
Stunt has one of the, best Music in Games i know, just wanted to be noticed here, although after 4 or 5 Hours its a bit strange...

My two brothers and I probably have a combined 100 hours in mastering this game. We designed truly awesome tracks and we were super competetive. I remember the Indy car coud reach this insane top speed... We'd design the tracks so you'd hit a ramp at top speed and about a mile later hit the down ramp perfectly. We designed our tracks as if they were motocross tracks, complete with double, triples, etc. Good memories!

Hey, just found Abandonia (and good timing, I just got a week off school, due to a strike of sorts). It's a great site. Do to the vast amount of games available for download, many of which are great, I always do some backround research (fishing up other reviews, visiting sub-forums like these) to see which ones are really exciting players, and what other players find fun. Well, stunts seems to be something I'd like to spend some time on. I downloaded it, double clicked the cracked stunt.com as opposed to the stunts.com , then a black 'dos box' (NOT the program, just one of those generic dos box things that load prior to a dos game) pops up for a quick second, goes away, then nothing happens.
Help?

It's weird that you would need Dosbox at all. I'm running different versions of Stunts directly in XP without any problem.
But yes, Dosbox should help, you can download it here on Abandonia + some sort of manual to it.

Run the other executable (I think Stunt.com is the good one, while Stunts.com gives you trouble).
With one of those it doesn't matter what you enter.

Hey hehe this may sound stupid but how the hell do you put the seatbelt on!?
Does anyone know where to get a keychart? thanks :)
Konrad.
Well... let's make a quick walkthrough...
1) Run Stunt.com (DOS, Windows 9X or DOSBOX recommended).
2) When the program asks you to enter some word, just press Enter.
3) When "Fasten your seatbelt!" appears, it's good, you are clear to start - just press the acceleration button. You even don't have to wait so long, you may go immediately the game screen is loaded (that animation will be skipped).
4) In-game controls are:
arrows: accelerate, brake, left, right.
A, Z: shifting (only with gearbox set to Manual instead of Auto in Car menu)
esc: pauses the racing and summons some menu
F1: cockpit view
F2: helicopter view
F3: camera-somewhere-around-the-car view
F4: camera is watching the car from some fixed place on the ground (not good for driving :-) )
5) Editor controls are:
space: jump between editing window and menu
shift+F1: landscape editing tools appear
arrows, enter: the rest :-)
Some tips for playing:
- Indy is the best car, then jaguar and then Porsche 962. The slower cars sometimes can't gather enough speed to jump over anything. BTW., do the slower cars have any specialty they would be worth driving for? I don't know.
- Opponents are quite dumb, even the best one of them (Skid Vicious) can be beaten in much slower car (try it ;-) ).
- While driving some extra long tracks, a message "replay buffer is full" appears. Ignore that, the only problem you get is that you won't be able to see replay later.
- Bumping the fence all around the track doesn't hurt you.
- When you are driving at top speed (fastest gear stage, engine cannot go faster) and go on the slope up (bridge, banked corner etc.), you will reach some kind of warp speed - engine roars very high, everything runs behind you very fast and the grass doesn't slow you down (!). When you make a drift (it's quite easy now), you will shoot away in full speed at the moment you stop drifting. However, steering is practically impossible and you can encounter some very strange physical phenomena during jumps or along the fence - it is very easy to take off and fly almost a kilometer high. And to fall down then, of course :-).
- Sometimes when you turn you car wheels up, the steering stil works. But after few seconds you crash anyway.
- Those concrete blocks on the road can be avoided by driving precisely at the centre of the road. Then you don't need to steer left or right, just go forward. Maybe some cars are a bit wider, but Indy can do this.
- The grass along double curves (2x2 squares) doesn't slow you, so you needn't to follow the road precisely.
- There's a demo that appears after some time in main menu. It is a replay loaded from file (I think) Default.rpl. It's quite funny to replace this file with some awful stunts (e.g. ignoring the gravity at top speed), the text "proffesional driver on closed circuit" looks a little odd then ;-).
Stunts is one of my favourite games... if it only had a multiplayer (splitscreen), it would be absolutely perfect. Now it is only GREAT :-D
Enjoy.

The slower cars are sometimes better on certain tracks where the faster cars would accelerate too fast and cause a crash in corners or like.

Well... then you just use the brake, no?
Btw., with some speed (but not too high) it's possible to drive on the ceiling of a pipe, without going in circles around it and without falling down. Aerodynamic down(up)force? Possible...

In videogames yes, everything is possible... in the real world, not a chance... the car would need "wings" like a plane to generate enough pull up force and also the speed of a plane as the pull up force is also connected with the velocity of the fluid flow.

Unfortunately the faster cars speed up so quickly that using a brake is often not enough and you're still too fast, and then you crash into a wall on corners or similar. But if you drive with them too slowly the opponent racer will just drive past you and win. With slow cars you can speed up all you want (and need) and as they're still not that fast you brake down more efficiently. Of course, one should also choose same slow or only slightly faster car for the opponent or he would win simply.

If you drive fast enough, the downforce from the spoiler (then working upwards since you're upside-down) would be enough to cling you to the surface. Of course this speed would be very high, so practically the only way is to "go in circles".

- Indy is the best car, then jaguar and then Porsche 962. The slower cars sometimes can't gather enough speed to jump over anything. BTW., do the slower cars have any specialty they would be worth driving for? I don't know. Sure, some of them have a "powergear" that allow you to drive on the grass without loosing speed, like with the indy. NSX or ZR1 for example have this feature, which is a game bug originally. "Powergear" speed may be 245 (like for the indy) or slower (203 mph for NSX for example)
- Opponents are quite dumb, even the best one of them (Skid Vicious) can be beaten in much slower car (try it ;-) ).
- While driving some extra long tracks, a message "replay buffer is full" appears. Ignore that, the only problem you get is that you won't be able to see replay later. Once a replay is mlonger than 10 minutes, this problem appear.
- Bumping the fence all around the track doesn't hurt you.
- When you are driving at top speed (fastest gear stage, engine cannot go faster) and go on the slope up (bridge, banked corner etc.), you will reach some kind of warp speed - engine roars very high, everything runs behind you very fast and the grass doesn't slow you down (!) That's the "powergear". When you make a drift (it's quite easy now), you will shoot away in full speed at the moment you stop drifting. However, steering is practically impossible and you can encounter some very strange physical phenomena during jumps or along the fence - it is very easy to take off and fly almost a kilometer high. And to fall down then, of course :-). All cars don't have powergear. Indy has the easiest handling of powergear, as you can keep powergear speed during turns. All other powergear cars loose powergear when you turn too sharply.
- Sometimes when you turn you car wheels up, the steering stil works. But after few seconds you crash anyway.
- Those concrete blocks on the road can be avoided by driving precisely at the centre of the road. Then you don't need to steer left or right, just go forward. Maybe some cars are a bit wider, but Indy can do this. All cars can do this. Sometimes, you can even go THROUGH a concrete block when driving exactly right (no turn move) at high but not highest speed. It's a very lucky trick.
- The grass along double curves (2x2 squares) doesn't slow you, so you needn't to follow the road precisely.
- There's a demo that appears after some time in main menu. It is a replay loaded from file (I think) Default.rpl. It's quite funny to replace this file with some awful stunts (e.g. ignoring the gravity at top speed), the text "proffesional driver on closed circuit" looks a little odd then ;-).

OK, a few things:
- The brake is important. While you're driving out in the open, it's not needed, but when you're in an up/down corkscrew or on a bridge, now is the time.
- Remember to open STUNT.COM, and just press ENTER when you get the manual thingy requester. (This SHOULD be on ALL the pages of this thread.) Oh, and if you're running this under Windows 2000, turn the sound off, or leave it on PC speaker. Win2K doesn't support sound cards under DOS.
- For jumping bridges, you will need lots of speed.
- This game brings back many memories. We used to have this. Ahh...

If you run STUNTS.COM, try doing some random guesswork. Make sure you fill up all you can. Once you've got it right, you're free to go. "DISPLAYING" was the word that got it working for me. It just depends on the question, but if you're clever, you can crack it. Oh, and you only have to do it once.

Disable security system in Stunts :

And then run stunts_k.exe which is cracked executable (simply press enter when question is asked).
Or you can use the following answers to the questions of the game if you prefer using the original executable :

This is one of the best games that I enjoyed playing. Certainly deserves 5 stars. The concept of the game is simple choose an existing track and either race with the computer opponent or against clock. There are few cars and a jeep too if I remember correctly from which you can choose. When racing with the opponent, you can assign a car to them too. The games get fun when you and opponent have the same car. Each opponent has a brief description their weakness and strengths.
The graphics are good enough. So are the sound effects and music.
The game has a track editor which allows you to modify existing track or make your own track. You have loops, corkscrews, ramps, jumps, bridges, jumps, dividers, or tunnel etc. On the side of the track you can place trees, buildings, windmills, and tennis courts etc as sceneries. Between the jumps you can place the scenery objects.
Apart from the track editor, you can view reply of the race in different camera and camera angels. You can zoom in and zoom out and the best part is you can save it and view it any time.
The game play is very nice, easy controls, never gets boring to play. The opponents are OK.
All is all this is a great game.

I used to play this game at school, maybe 10 years ago, with some friends. We created new tracks daily for each other, just to see who got the best time. I even coded a (very basic) landscape editor back then, because the four(?) pre-defined landscapes were too boring after you've played hundreds of races on them :)
I think I still have the disks with the tracks somewhere. Need to find them *runs away, searching*

You're joking, right?
Stunts was released in 1990, some 10 years before the PS2 came out; it's hardly fair to compare games of such a different age... In 1990 racing game graphics didn't get much better than this + it was mostly the gameplay and the ability to build your own tracks that was important.

The whole - as you call it - "hype" is about the sheer enjoyability of gameplay.
Think about it - your "better" game for PS2 won't ever match the graphics on nextgen consoles like Xbox 360 or PS3. And yet, does that mean this game automatically sucks?
Of course not.
The same also applies to older games - there are people who like games with CGA graphics, text-based adventures/RPGs or games that use ASCII charset to represent the enviroment (like Rogue). Don't look down on us just because you cannot understand our tastes.
Brings back memories indeed! I recall a friend once played the game with a Lamborghini Diablo...so I was wondering if anyone would recall a cheat in the game, or if there was a way to import cars and not just tracks to it. I never figured it out.
Awesome add anyway, cheers Abandonia!

Ok, so how do I get past the security... nah, just kidding ;-)
I came across a whole load of old tracks and replays for this game on one of my archive CDs which brought back fond memories of it. I have uploaded them here for anyone who is interested:
http://rapidshare.com/files/31261458/TracksReplays.zip.html
Some of these were made by myself and friends, though I can no longer remember which ones. That's probably for the best, as some of the tracks are pretty awful to race on, but they do show off some of the crazy things you could do with this game!
That's what I loved about it. The game would have been a bit mundane if it wasn't for the track designer and replay features. The ability to share your own tracks and replays of your best times/most spectacular crashes with others made it great fun!

Ah, didn't realise that. My version of the game on which those files were created is Mindscape 4D Sports Driving (version 1.1).

They do seem to work, so I guess the tracks are ok(?) but the replays actually play differently. There's one called "airborne", for instance, in which the car exits a tunnel from the ceiling and ends up shooting high into the air. The same replay on this site's version shows the car crashing inside the tunnel. On others the car stays on the track on one version and drives off the track completely on the other!
So, for the record, the files I uploaded are for 4D Sports Driving but may work (with inaccurate replays) in Stunts. Oh well, it was worth a try.

Brings back memories...
I still remember that i got my first copy of the game (some Broderbund version i guess) in 1993 from my neighbours on a 5.25" floppy in an lha archive. It was somewhat around the end of August, and i was absolutely pissed off then about that school was going to start within days, and i can not play the game enough!!! I just do not get one thing. From where on the Earth people in Hungary got the games then since Internet pratically did not even exist then (at least in our village it did not... Anyways somehow on those 5.25" floppies any game could spread out). A later memory of the game is that i could not fit it in any way on an 5.25" floppy (i mean in an unpacked, ready - to - play state). That was maybe the first time i started "hacking", as i remember i removed the files relating to the opponents except for Skid Vicious. I do not know what i actually did, but it worked.
I knew about two additional glitches which i did not see in the topic yet:
One is the block of flats under a jump. This thing was dangerous, and especially pissing off on a long track. Randomly sometimes the car could not get it right, then, well ... Yet another nice space rocket launch video saved :D
Another is again with jumping when somehow the air lifted the car a bit higher. This was noticeable, then, when the car grounded, it crashed, except if it landed on a higher ground.
Well, and sometimes the car would start bouncing after the jump... Usually no problem, but when a turn, and a big flat was ahead...
The opponents were dumb. You all mentioned this, but once i got a very strange result. On a track i designed the opponent at a point mistook a turn, i mean it drove in a pipe which i placed under a jump, and when it was about to get out, it always tried to go down the road to reach the crossing one. You know what a deadly thing is the pipe's entrace / exit node, it obviously did not success for it :P
A trick which came handy for me: The icy 4 block corners also have a red and white colored area (like the pawed and mud corners). And that's not slippery. With an elegant turn, it is possible to make it much faster than by going on the ice! (But be careful, the Indy just fits on it! You have to be precise!; The 1 block sharp icy corners can also be tricked. I can not remember well, but maybe including the grass in the turn can make it faster)
I (as i think like everyone) experienced a lot with speed warp mode. I had even seen a track designed to be done with speed warp, and then even i created such a track, what i completed then (i could only do it with the continue replay feature, it is awfully hard to drive that way...).
Of course i still have the game :) I did not play with it too much recently though... At gaming i was too occupied with Albion and watching C64 intros :D

Where do I get a free copy of the manual? (My father threw out the game years ago along with the manual) Also, after having run the game a few times, it only plays in B&W now. Any ideas as to how to fix this?

by manual, if you mean that it asks you 'what does page x, line y word z in manual say?' you can type anything you wish, the game is cracked.
and to get the colours, run setup.exe and choose MCGA/VGA as video display

Damnit this game was the muck. One of my all time favourites. Me and my brother used to play this for weeeeks.
The review is exactly how I feel about the game.
BUT what was left unnoted that with certain cars in Stunts you could reach I very high speed (higher than their official topspeed) and almost fly over the track even off the track without losing speed. Just taking turns that way was very hard. We used to call it "drifting".

Yeah this game is probably my favorite racing game. We used to make the most wild tracks and then challenge our friends to beat our times. What I loved about this game was how smooth the car felt when driving - a lot of racing games back then made it feel as if your car was filled with lead and would move in jerks but this is so fluent and smooth.

Here is a easter egg. While driving, throw it in Neutral and keep the throttle down, the car will speed up like crazy

Well... let's make a quick walkthrough...
...
...
...
- When you are driving at top speed (fastest gear stage, engine cannot go faster) and go on the slope up (bridge, banked corner etc.), you will reach some kind of warp speed - engine roars very high, everything runs behind you very fast and the grass doesn't slow you down (!). When you make a drift (it's quite easy now), you will shoot away in full speed at the moment you stop drifting. However, steering is practically impossible and you can encounter some very strange physical phenomena during jumps or along the fence - it is very easy to take off and fly almost a kilometer high. And to fall down then, of course :-).[/b]
Yeah this is a game bug, I found it only to work with the Indy car. I also found another way to activate it!
:brain:
Step 1) Select the Indy car for yourself, and set it to MANUAL gear changing.
Step 2) Select a track with a jump gap [preferably near beginning - default track is good] - to make the opponent crash.
Step 3) Give your opponent a slow car so they cannot make the gap.
Start the race. Once you opponent has crashed. Approach the wreckage slowly. When you get near, hit brakes to complete stop. Change up to highest gear, keep accelerator held down and you will creep slowly towards opponent's wreckage. When you hit/nudge it, you should bounce off and your speed will be maxed out to approx 250 Mph in 1 second! ENJOI

I remember it also worked with automatic transmission.

Does anyone also have the problem of nót having the music with it?
It doesn't do anything. I tried to put it on with options but no succes.

If you play the game in DosBox you should be able to get the sound and music.

I'm using stunt.exe
EDIT: Nevermind, I got it from another site, and it works now :)

Hello, I always had this problem: When I have created a track, the program doesn't let me drive it! Only if it's not complicated. How can I get rid of this bug?

What happens if you try to drive the track, does the game bring you back to the map editor? In that case, there must be some part of the track which is incomplete, not connected or incorrectly connected.
Also, some configurations are seen by the game as errors (if I remember correctly, these are things like having a ramp up, 3 straight roads that are not elevated, a ramp down)
Perhaps we can help if you post screenshots of your map layout?
Hello,
I can only say, there is nothing wrong in the track. It's a damn bug in the game.
Why did the programmers even program it this way, why can't just every track be driven no matter if it's incomplete or something.

Would you want to play a track that is not finished?
Would you want to play a track that can't be completed?
I certainly wouldn't.
It's simply a security measure that prevents players from blaming the game developers on being unable to complete faulty tracks.

in order to test the map...
It's a difference between pointing out that something is "wrong" in the track and forbidding the player to drive it.
This is a real classic, and it was revolutionary in its time. When I had a 486 pc, I spent a lot of time with Stunts. I made maps, then I called this blonde beauty in a duel. I always drove the Carrera, and she always sat in the Lancia :smile2:

Good times where friends go to each friend home to copy or borrow videogames, I knew this one by a friend of high school in a 486 66 Mhz, great PC! He runs faster and he did very good times, compared with mine records in my old 386@16 Mhz.
Great game, doing maps, or driving in the programmed courses. I like the engine sounds, I remember hearing the Ferrari GTO 1984 with earphones and It was fantastic!
The icy roads where the worst, then in the muddy ones resting speed or the jumps in an elevated road, breaking before jump to don´t crash in the invisible near corner!
Great sliddings in the corners, when your speed was too much, etc...excellent video game, it´s that kind that if I know then how many hours I will spend on it or how much I enjoy this one, I I had bought it.

Bumping this thread: I'm replaying Stunts, and have a few versions, all with different tracks. Does someone know which track(s) came originally with the game? "Default" has to be there or the game won't start, but I guess other tracks were delivered originally with the game? With the downloaded version(s) all kind of user tracks are included. I'd like to know which were the original ones that Broderbund included in the game when they sold it...

Disk B: default.trk
Disk C: bernies.trk, cherris.trk, default.trk, helens.trk, joes.trk, skids.trk
And I'm pretty sure that default.trk is the same on both disks.
