The 'Drift Stage: 2016 Convention Demo' was originally compiled for use at the 2016 Minecon convention in Anaheim California. The build represented in this archive was released exclusively to Kickstarter & Humble Bundle backers in September of 2016. While the content remains the same, various bug fixes, patches, and game-play improvements were implemented after the convention - making this the 'best' possible version of this demo.
Featuring the final layout of the 'Eventide Highway' course present in the original 2014 prototype, The Convention version demoed near complete vehicle physics with full collision models, graphic improvements, custom control layouts, choice of automatic or manual transmission - and most importantly: split screen four-player.
After drawing crowds for the full extent of the convention, this build was quickly archived while newer version were developed.
Unfortunately, things did not work out as planned - Drift Stage's Steam release did not meet its expected release goal of Q4 2016 - Q1 2017. and after a considerable amount of time - the decision was been made to make this build available to the public.
This version of Drift Stage (and any subsequent unreleased or future versions) would not exist without the support and enthusiasm of Drift Stage's fans. Thank you for your support ā this public release would not have been possible without you.

Remote desktop manager enterprise 4 6 1 0 download free. Mac Troubleshooting:
If the application fails to launch - or crashes during loading - try giving the directory: 'driftstage.app/Contents/MacOS/driftstage' executable permissions (chmod a+x).
In the event you encounter graphical bugs and freezing, check your graphics quality settings and make sure they are set to 'low'. Certain graphical effects such as shadows and motion blur may not render correctly on older hardware, causing Drift Stage to run adversely. Win the game mac os.
Be sure to restart the game after any changes are made to ensure no residual issues occur.
Linux Troubleshooting:
Your experience with this build may vary depending on your choice of Linux distribution. If you encounter issues with your controller not detecting properly, or other critical bugs such as hard crashes, we recommended you check your terminal for any driver conflicts or other signs of specific issues.

Multiple plugins used by Drift Stage have since been updated to meet broader systems specifications, but this specific iteration of the game is using 2015-2016 era versions.
If no work around or solution is found, we recommend running the PC version with Wine - a free Windows emulator for Linux.
Bugs
As with previous developmental build releases, this version of Drift Stage has multiple bugs that may interrupt your race if you encounter them at the wrong time. Quitting to the main menu and restarting is necessary, but be sure to take a screenshot of where you end up.
Clipping out of bounds due to a very hard collision (with the barrier or with another player) may cause you to fall through the map. A collision that causes the player vehicle to fly up over the barriers will also result in falling out of bounds, but is not directly caused by clipping.
Sudden FPS drops or poor performance increase the chance of this occurring - so make sure your game is running above 30fps consistently or you may need to lower your graphics settings.
Small camera 'jumps' occur on certain cars (ZX78).
Some translation errors exist in the Japanese and Chinese written on billboards. These issues were fixed it later builds - with some issues due to incorrectly flipped UV maps (textures).

1999: A year ago at this time, I found myself doing one of the ārequiredā columns that seem to emanate from all columnists around this time. Itās just sort of expected in the Mac community that a columnist will have something to say about each MacWorld Expo, an end-of-the-year review, a ālook aheadā column for the new year, and a piece on each major hardware and/or system release from Apple.
The piece I did last year was for the MacTimes News Network. MacTimes had surged to prominence in the latter part of 1998 with an infusion of new writers added to the already content-rich site. Now, just twelve months later, MacTimes is up for sale and the site is inactive.
Appleās Rebound
A year ago, Apple Computer appeared to be undeniably coming out of the woods, but was still a niche market player. Appleās stock had climbed from a low of around $13 per share to nearly $40. After topping out at $118 per share a month ago, Apple stock now hangs around the $100 mark, an indication that at least investors think Apple is going to be around for awhile.
Rebound (itch) (sam Low) Mac Os 7
While sales of Apple products are currently close to an all time high, there are lingering problems that Apple should address to insure their continued success. A lot can happen in just one short year.
āWhatās an iMac?ā
In a turn that about knocked me over, I talked last summer to a number of folks who still think Apple is on its way out. Then, in October, when my wife Annie and I gave my newlywed son an iMac, his lovely bride brought us back to reality by saying, āWhatās an iMac?ā I guess Iād fooled myself with the success of the iMac and G3s into thinking most folks knew Apple was back, if only as a minor player. But the volume of people who still believe Apple is dead or dying is incredible.
One of those people is my wifeās boss. At their company Christmas party, he asked me about the iMac. He wanted to know if there were any issues that should dissuade him from getting one for his son for Christmas. He had previously told Annie that he thought his son had some real talent in graphics and that he wanted to help those skills develop. This is the same guy who ridicules Apple and Macs, but when he hired a graphic artist didnāt even blink when she required a Mac as a condition of employment!
Unfortunately, the last minute iMac shoppers in our area usually would have a two-hour drive to the nearest Apple Authorized Reseller who had any Macintoshes in stock. In a stroke of luck while finishing my Christmas shopping, I found that our local Samās Wholesale Club had several 333 MHz iMacs for sale. (They havenāt carried Apple products since the old Performa days.) When I passed along the info that grape and tangerine models were still there, Anneās boss replied, āGrape and tangerine!ā
Isnāt Apple Still Beleaguered?
This push and pull of folks who donāt know anything about Apple, or who think Apple is still down and out, mixed with Appleās resurgence, give me pause to consider just how much can happen in a year. While Apple is riding high on the continuing success of the iMac series, there are possible pitfalls awaiting them. Many of these pitfalls which could reduce Apple to its previous ābeleagueredā status are continuing uncorrected problems of the past. Foremost among these problems are production and distribution.
Apple still has a problem with getting hot products to market in sufficient volume to supply demand. The lack of products being available when they should has been chronicled repeatedly on the web, but Apple still seems unable to correct this issue and certainly misses many impulse buyers.
No iBooks on Display at Sears
A single case in point is the iBook. When I walk through the computer department at our local Sears, I usually end up talking computers with Ryan, the excellent sales rep who sold me my sonās iMac. He complains that they canāt even get a floor model of the iBook for display. This particular Sears store carries no iMacs in stock by design. When someone wants an iMac or iBook, Ryan has to offer to order it.
Of course, he has ample stock of various other brands of PCs, so the prospective Macintosh buyer in Terre Haute, Indiana, canāt even see a floor model of the iBook ā and has to wait a few days if they want to buy an iMac. Interestingly, whenever I go through that department, there is invariably someone at the floor model iMac, while few stop to fiddle with the various PCās on display.
Apple Miscues
Apple has a continuing problem with image and customer service. The great G4 debacle of 1999 is unique in my memory of computer sales. Canceling orders for a product ā and then offering to reinstate those orders for a lesser product at the same price as the faster one they had ordered, is beyond belief. But Apple did it, and their subsequent retraction and apologies canāt erase the memory of their attempted rip-off of loyal customers. That single action gave Mac users an unparalleled look into the true corporate heart and soul of Apple Computer. It wasnāt and isnāt a pretty sight. Those who received order cancellation notices will remember this one.
Rebound (itch) (sam Low) Mac Os Update
The great G4 rip-off attempt came right on the heels of the G4 block, which was apparently introduced into the Blue and White G3 on purpose. Whatever the purpose of that block, the appearance of Appleās actions was that it was trying to force previous customers to purchase new G4 Power Macs by blocking the upgrade path to third-party G4 upgrades for Blue and White G3 owners.
While itās only my opinion (remember, this is an opinion column), I think that without the pressure from PowerLogix and Newer Technology breaking down the G4 block, Apple would have remained totally mum on the issue and and left its Blue and White buyers without any upgrade options to the G4. I suspect Blue and White owners will remember this act for quite awhile.
Poor Customer Service
I probably came by some of these harsh views of Apple Computer from my own incredibly negative experiences with their customer service department. If it were just me, I might be able to easily dismiss my concerns about Appleās poor customer service as just a fluke, but emails from readers say the problem is far more widespread. While there are positive emails as well, the read I get tells me Apple may need to look at the results other computer companies have achieved through poor customer service. Packard Bell is one that immediately comes to mind.
Sadly, despite Steve Jobs āfireside chatā with educators that promised so much just a year ago, Apple has apparently written off the education market to the PC crowd. While Apple disputes the diminishing education market share numbers, they also have done little to nothing to preserve their remaining, but quickly eroding education base.
Plain Dumb Design
Finally, Apple has to overcome its intransigence factor. Anyone who has used the new Apple keyboard or round mouse for any length of time has to be seriously considering a usable third party keyboard and mouse. Kensington, Macally, and others should be thrilled with Appleās continuing foolishness of shipping good computers with what are now generally accepted to be real second-string keyboards and mice!
There are rumors that Apple just might change the design of these items. I hope so, because when I recommend an Apple Computer product, I now have to recommend the prospective buyer consider a non-Apple branded monitor, an immediate RAM upgrade (until recently), a peripheral removable storage device to compensate for the missing floppy drive, and a replacement keyboard and mouse.
Apple Arrogance
While Appleās future appears quite rosy on the surface, their recent miscues add a bit of somberness to any evaluation of its future. Apple has some persistent problems that need attention. Making enough of the right product at the right time is critical. Getting that product into highly visible retail locations is also critical.
The other problems, unfortunately, go right to the heart of Appleās legendary corporate arrogance. Itās a āno-brainerā that there can be no repeat of anything like the twin G4 debacles of 1999. Attention to true customer service that produces customer-satisfying results without hours on hold is probably totally beyond Appleās current realm of comprehension. Hyping products such as Sherlock and Mac OS 8.5 as ārevolutionaryā leaves buyers wondering what to believe when they hear anything from Apple Computer.
Correcting many of the attitude problems would necessarily entail a total change at the top of Apple Computer. Lopping off the heads of those who brought Apple back from the grave doesnāt seem a really bright strategy, though. So where do the answers come from? I donāt know, but I hope someone at Apple with the power to take corrective action is considering these things. If not, Appleās star has probably risen about as high as itās going to go.
