JOYSTICK BUTTON=HAT_LEFT FUNCTION=ROLL_LEFT JOYSTICK BUTTON=HAT_RIGHT FUNCTION=ROLL_RIGHT JOYSTICK BUTTON=HAT_DOWN FUNCTION=LOOK_BACK JOYSTICK BUTTON=HAT_UP FUNCTION=CAMERA_CYCLE If you have this problem, edit the current_control.map file with TextEdit, so it looks like the below (basically deleting the roll left/right options) There was no way to delete the settings within the game. I then found that there were some issues with the joystick mapping - whenever moving hard-left, the damn pod went vertical and stayed there. This version of Racer doesn't require installing, you just run it from the folder. I created a new Windows XP bottle in Crossover, and set the SWEP1RCR.EXE file to be the main application. I then extracted the file and moved the folder to my Applications folder. I downloaded a slightly different version of Racer, which I found here: I'm not opposed to paying for a copy, as long as it works on OS X then that's fine - I'll even take a working version for 64-bit Win 8.1.Ĭould anybody provide any advice or possibly link me to a working copy for purchase? There is a strong community for getting this game working but an in-depth search would suggest I'm not alone in struggling to get this game working on newer hardware

GOG.com don't have a copy and neither does anybody else (from what I can see). Downloaded the Mac OS9 version of it, and ran in Sheepshaver.

Created a Win95 Virtual Machine and ran it there - sadly due to Parallels graphics card it wouldn't work Running in Boxer (doesn't work as it's Win95 rather than DOS)

Running in Windows 8.1 with all the recommended compatibility settings/exe patches: when I did get it running it was so buggy/graphic glitchy that it wasn't worth playing I've got the original DVDs, though I've also tried downloading the ISO from abandonware websites. Unfortunately I can't get Star Wars Racer working whatsoever. I've recently got a joystick and I've been playing a number of great old games (Star Wars Rebel Assault 2, Descent 2).
