Genre: Racing Release Year: 1999 Developer: LucasArts Publisher: LucasArts Age Rating: Everyone Playability Status: Playable (with significant issues) Tested On: Windows 7 x64, Windows 8 x64 Availability: Copyright retained - Still sold Don’t want the hassle?Get this game pre-fixed, DRM free and ready to play from. Fully working or your money back.Star Wars Episode I may divide the opinion of Star Wars fans, but the fast and furious pod-racing scenes from the film remain a highlight.
Of course, it didn’t take long before LucasArts gave us the chance to try our own hands at pod racing from the comfort of our PCs or games consoles. A long long time ago (well okay, only back in March 2013), we reluctantly told you that Star Wars – Episode 1 Racer didn’t work on modern systems. Now we’re back again with a possible fix for this old game, as well as an updated 64-bit compatible installer. However, Star Wars Racer is a game fraught with strange complications and problems and may not work on all PCs. Our only advice is to try it and cross your fingers! GoG.com versionIn May 2018, Star Wars Episode 1: Racer finally arrived on GoG.com. This week we were able to check out a copy and it seems that most of the problems with the game are now in fact solved.
You can download the GoG.com version.We were able to play the first couple of tracks in the GoG.Com version with no issues. It remains to be seen if some of the more obscure issues, like problems with the controller in later levels, are now actually solved.A couple of observations about the GoG.com version can be found below.Gog.Com Episode I: Racer is set to run as administrator – Gog.com have chosen to set the game to run with administrator privileges. This actually appears to be necessary the first time you run the game, otherwise you may get no audio. However, on subsequent sessions you can disable this. To do so, use the compatibility options on the games icon. For a tutorial on these options,Controller bindings not included – As the Xbox 360 or Xbox One controller is the standard for so many PC gamers these days, it would have been good if Gog.com had included a pre-configured file for this game controller.
Instead, all controls are left blank. If you’re using a 360 or Xbox One controller, you can download our pre-made configuration file. Unzip the “currentcontrol.map” file and copy it to the games installation directory, in the dataconfigcurrent sub-folders, overwriting the file that’s already there. You should then be all set to play with a Xbox controller. InstallationWhile Star Wars Episode I: Racer will install without any issues on a 32 bit machine, if you are running the 64 bit version of Windows then the installer will simply not run (obviously this doesn’t apply to the GoG.com version). We originally produced our own replacement installer but this is no longer updated. Instead, grab the latest and greatest replacement installer from.If for any reason you need our old installer, you can still get it here.
This installer will also copy a fan-made patch, which makes it possible to run the game on (most) modern PCs. You can download the installer (link broken? Let me know ).
We have tested the installer on several PCs but of course there could always be bugs. If you have any issues please leave a comment at the bottom of this article and let us know. The installer was updated on the 12th January 2015 with an updated graphics patch (see below).
Running the gameAfter installation with our new installer, you have two options for starting the game. You can use the “Play Star Wars Racer (Fixed EXE)” link to launch the fan-made patch version or you can use the original executable on its own or in conjunction with DXWnd. Only by trial and error can you find out which method (if any) works best for you.Episode 1 Racer graphics patchThanks to an anonymous contributor (and to Patryckpo in the comments) for bringing this to our attention. The original Star Wars Episode 1 Racer game would not run on most modern PCs at all. The game had corrupt graphics throughout, making it totally unplayable. By using our replacement installer, the fan-made patch is installed automatically, correcting problems with the games graphics.
The game should now run on the majority of PCs. Please read the troubleshooting section if you have any issues. 12/01/15 update – We’ve just pushed a significant update to this patch. The patch now uses the. This significantly improved the games start-up time on our PC.To start the game using this patched version, use the “Play Star Wars Racer (Fixed EXE)” shortcut on your Start menu/screen or desktop. Be patient when starting the game as it can take some time.
If the game simply won’t start for you even after you follow all the troubleshooting steps, you can try the DXWnd method detailed below.Original executableSince it was brought to our attention that the original executable file actually works better than the fan-made patch for some people, we’ve changed the installer so that it now installs both versions. If you need to run the original, unpatched version of the game for any reason, use the “Play Star Wars Racer (Original EXE)” shortcut. On a small number of machines, this original un-patched version may work without any additional steps.Alternative method – DXWndThanks to the community on for bringing this to our attention. This method of launching the game may help some of you that cannot run it using the provided patch. As stated above we have updated the replacement installer so that it now installs two versions of the game, the original version and the fan-made patch. To carry out this procedure please use the original version (SWEP1RCR.EXE) of the game.Before you get your hopes up too high, we should point out that we have NOT been able to get this technique to work at all.
We have tried three different PCs, two with Windows 8 and one with Windows 7 and it did not work on any of them. The game simply crashed as soon as we started it with DXWnd.
Nevertheless other users around the internet claim it works for them, so if you are determined to try, here’s how to do it.Start by downloading DXWnd. You can download DXWnd. Click on the green “Download” button to get the file.
The file is downloaded as a.rar archive. If you don’t have any software that can open this kind of file, we recommend 7-zip. You can download 7-zip.
Tutorials on how to use 7-Zip can be foundOnce you have downloaded DXWnd, extract all the files from the rar archive to a folder on your PC. Now, run the DXWnd program by clicking on the “dxwnd.exe” file. A small window will open on your desktop. From the available menus, choose File-Import.
A file requester window will now appear. Browse to the folder where you installed DXWnd and open the “exports” sub-folder. In this folder there are several files, find the one called “Star Wars Episode 1 Racer” and double click on it.If you completed the above steps correctly, you should now see “Star Wars Episode 1 Racer” has appeared in the DXWnd window as per the picture below.You should now right click on “Star Wars Episode 1 Racer” in the DXWnd window and choose “Modify”. A “Target” window will then appear.
Make sure the “Main” tab is selected. You need to check that the value entered in the “Path:” box is correct. This needs to point to the SWEP1RCR.EXE file within your Star Wars Racer game directory. If you installed to the default location, the path to the file will be “C:GamesStar Wars RacerSWEP1RCR.EXE”. Either manually edit this line or use the “” button to browse to the correct folder. The screenshot below shows an example of a correctly configured path.Click on “OK”.
You can now start the game by right clicking on the “Star Wars Episode 1 Racer” entry and choosing “Run”. If you are lucky, the game will now start and run without graphical glitches. If you don’t want to run the game in a window, right click on “Star Wars Episode 1 Racer” and choose “Modify” again and this time deselect “Run in Window” on the “Main” tab.Yet another alternative – dgVoodoo2Some users have reported better results when using the PC retrogamers friend dgVoodoo2. For a tutorial on how to do this,. Star Wars Racer is a DirectX game and you must use the original executable with dgVoodoo2. Tweaking visual settingsThere are some basic visual settings you can tweak in the game. To do this, start the game and from the title screen, go to Video settings.
On a modern PC you can turn on all options. Leave “Lens Flare” off if you are tired of fake lens flare effects (who isn’t these days?). We’ll look at some advanced, hidden settings later in the article. Configuring controllers/gamepadsStar Wars Racer supports modern controllers, though configuring bindings is a bit of a bind in-game.
From the games options menu, you can configure controller settings, though you can’t clear bindings and you can only invert the first three axes on your controller (inverting all the axes is required for Xbox 360 controller). If you installed the game using our new installer, it should have been pre-configured for Xbox 360 controller use (hint – pull back on the right stick then click it down to boost). There are several controller settings you can configure by manually editing configuration files too.You can download our pre-made configuration file for Xbox controllers.
Unzip the “currentcontrol.map” file and copy it to the games installation directory, in the dataconfigcurrent sub-folders, overwriting the file that’s already there. You should then be all set to play with a Xbox controller. Manually editing settingsThe in-game settings menu leaves a lot to be desired. True Jedi masters will want to delve into the games configuration files and edit them manually for best results. To access these options, browse to the games installation directory and look for a folder called “Data”. Open this folder and look for a sub-folder called “config”. Inside this folder there should be another sub-folder called current.
Inside current are the games configuration files. You can edit these manually.
Unfortunately, doing so in the standard Windows notepad tool proved exceptionally difficult since the files formatting became corrupt. We recommend you download and install the Notepad tool. With this tool installed, simply right click on any of the files in this folder and choose “edit with Notepad”. The files we are most interested in are currentcontrol.map and video.cfg.By editing the file called “currentcontrol.map” you can change joystick bindings.
The easiest way is to edit as many bindings as you can in-game then tweak the file here. To delete a binding simply delete the entire line in the text file.By editing video.cfg you can enable some hidden graphics settings. For the highest quality video, set the following options in the file. VIDEO REFLECTIONS=ONVIDEO ZEFFECTS=ONVIDEO DYNAMICLIGHTING=ONVIDEO VSYNC=ONVIDEO LENSFLARE=ONVIDEO ENGINEEXHAUST=ONVIDEO TEXTURERES=1VIDEO MODELDETAIL=3VIDEO DRAWDISTANCE=3If you choose “Enable undocumented graphics enhancements” when using our custom installer, these options will be set for you already. If you find these enhancements don’t work well for you and you want to go back to the default, simply delete the entire video.cfg file. The game will create a new one with the default settings the next time it is started. Widescreen supportSupposedly, it is possible to run Star Wars Racer in widescreen by hacking the executable.
However, in our tests this simply did not work. For anyone who wants to try the widescreen hack themselves, the details are available. TroubleshootingThis game is extremely problematic and may require Jedi levels of patience in order to get it working. In testing and configuring we found the following additional issues.Corrupt videos:- Happens particularly on Windows 8 machines. Sometimes setting compatibility options to run the game in reduced colour mode (16-bit 65535 colour) can help.Game takes a very long time to start:- This can happen if your game CD is dirty, damaged or the PC is having a hard time reading it.
Be patient when starting the game! On some machines it takes several minutes to load.Game freezes on or before the intro:- Be patient when starting the game! On some machines it takes several minutes to load. If the game locks up before the intro plays, or as the intro is playing, try restarting your PC. Make sure that no other applications are running that could overlay graphics onto the game.
Disable as many other programs as possible (instant messengers, web browsers, e-mail programs etc). Add the game to your Windowblinds exclusions and disable/hide Stardock Fences and Stardock Deskscapes if installed.
Disable any secondary monitors, if present. The slow startup problem should be significantly improved with the latest version of the Episode 1 Racer graphics patch.No sound card detected:- Sometimes the game will play audio just fine in the introduction, then fail to play any sound whatsoever in the main game. Going into the audio settings, the game displays a “No sound card detected” message. To solve this problem, you will need to run the game as administrator.Configuration tool doesn’t start on some PCs:- To set the games screen resolution and various other options, you need to start the games configuration tool (which we called “Configure Star Wars Racer” when using our new installer). However on some machines this tool simply will not launch. We found that the configuration tool would not run at all when we were running Windows 7, but a switch to Windows 8 on the exact same hardware and the tool ran without a problem.
On other Windows 7 PCs it ran just fine too. If you cannot start the tool, you can run our installation utility to set the screen resolution.Configuration tool doesn’t allow screen mode changes:- Instead of being given a list of available screen-modes, the configuration utility just shows an empty list. Use our custom installer to set screen modes instead.Game defaults to 800×600 or 640×480 resolution:- Possibly related to the above, on some machines the game will not run in any other resolution. Try restarting your PC and then running the game as administrator. You can also try clearing the virtual store section in the registry (a tutorial on how to do this is coming soon).Problems saving games and configuration files:- Like many old games, Star Wars Racer saves configuration files to the same directory as it is installed to.
That means that if you install the game to your program files directory, you may have trouble saving your progress. Either install the game to a different directory (e.g C:Games) or configure the permissions on the games installation folder to give you read/write access. A tutorial on how to do this can be found. When using the games configuration tool, run it as administrator to ensure that changes get saved properly. Well, that’s all I could findNo virus in file (scanned here with NOD32 and nothing found), but there is a no-cd crack, unfortunately.I couldn’t find any other link (with a “non patched” version), maybe you guys could download the original file and then update this post with a version without the no-cd executable (only the.dll files or something, I don’t know if it works, since my version was patched with the no-cd crack and I don’t have the original executable anymore, I lost the disc some years ago), anyways, this is a cool game to play, very addicting! But I guess that the main deal is in the.dll files Anyway, thank you. Unfortunately it doesn’t work for me entirely.
I can start the game, I can even play. Thats a big improvement for me (I wasn’t able to install the game at all). But there are ugly graphic bugs in the game that won’t let me see much.
For example there is a big blue stripe from one side to the other, so i cannot see much of what is coming:(Similar situation in the menu. Green and other coloured surfaces hide most information about pilots and tracksI hope you can give a working solutionbut thanks a lot anyway and I hope you understand my denglish:). “On some machines it takes several minutes to load”it just take few sec for the error“try restarting your PC”Already did it“Make sure that no other applications are running that could overlay graphics onto the game”Already did it“Disable as many other programs as possible (instant messengers, web browsers, e-mail programs etc)”Already did it“as many other programs as possible (instant messengers, web browsers, e-mail programs etc).
Add the game to your Windowblinds exclusions and disable/hide Stardock Fences, if installed. Disable any secondary monitors, if present.”i do not have installed.any suggestion? Hi, I used your installer but when I wanted to run SWEP1RCR.EXE the screen stays black and only my mouse cursor is visible. There is only a window (after I hit the windows key) with racererror saying rdroidgnome release build has stopped working.I checked every possible solution (and of course your troubleshooting guide), but nothing seems to help.I also tried a different approach with the installer from Markus Egger. With this installer the game works, but when I have to choose a racer there are no pods and no pilots visible and after that I have the whitescreen bug.
So I tried the solution from this page (the program dxwnd):But then I get rdroidgnome release build crash too.I have win 7 64 bit and and ATI Radeon HD 5770.Would be great if someone has any ideas! For years I’ve been trying to get this game to work on my PC, and the only thing I got was a white screen Now, with this installer, I can play this wonderful game again for the person who made this installer, all I have to say is: THANK YOU, you do not know how that made me happy!this person and this site has my eternal thanks!I’m sorry if my English was not so good, I’m from Brazil, but I think you know what I mean! Any chance for making the same installer for The Phantom Menace?Thank you again!
I’ve got to say that over six years ago I searched long and hard for a fix to this game. I loved the game so much that I still have a laptop that really overheats just to play this game. I’ve even written an awesome Wiimote script to play the game with. I’ve yet to make any video of it as I’d like to.Finally I’ll get to why I’m really posting. The installer works awesome for me, I can play the game again with my wii controllers and plays like a dream, but there are still a minor issue. When I start the game the windows mouse and the game mouse are both on the screen and move at different speeds.
Is there a setting to change hardware mouse on/off?Finally after running the game in Admin and enabling sound, you can exit and use the game without running it as Admin and still have sound it seems.Lastly it seems the file name is really important? When I change it to anything but “SWEP1RCRFIX.EXE” the screen stretches itself off screen. Reason I found this is because I have hacked the original EXE file to have various resolutions available for my laptop and HDTVs. Perhaps you may add it into your installer to have not only one EXE, but one EXE for each resolution selected? I’d be thankful if you would also include common widescreen resolutions as options.
The cherry on top of this incredibly awesome gift! I’d also be willing to share my custom script for such a thing. (Been busy else it would have already been public.). Hi Draken, glad the fix worked for you. I’ve noticed the two-pointer thing myself but it didn’t bother me that much, it’s easy to get used to.The filename shouldn’t be important at all, I only changed it so that we could include both versions of the game in the installer, as for a rare number of people the original Lucasarts version worked best.As for the Widescreen hack, it simply doesn’t work for me so I can’t test it, that’s why it’s not included. By all means if you’ve a nice easy guide to activating them let us know and I’ll update the article though.
Dude, you are good.For many years I have tryed some solutions. I try DxWnd with no (or a little) hope on the modified installation, but it’s work, and very good!!!!Thank you a lot.Ps: my only old pc which could use the game begin to be hot when I play (same after cleaning fan). It is on the end of his live.So it’s cool to play it on my current pc.for informations, I’m on a Asus GW75, so win7, intel Core i7-3610QM with a Nvidia 670M.I’m use the version v20285build of DxWnd.I notice if a move the window, the blank screen come back again. May be a kind of “Device Lost”.I known what I will doing tomorrow (it’s 1 am):)Thank you again. Oh my god!Many thanks for this, working perfectly on Nvidia Gforce GTX 770 with Windows 8.1 Update 1!But you really should mention this:– French and German discs version doesn’t work completely (and probably Italian/Spanish), there is some of theses green color over the screen, making the game playable but without the possibility to watch everything (so, unpossible to play very well)– Everything worked for me after using an english game! (after reading some nvidia comments also)I’m going to try to patch sounds with french disc.wav files at least.
(supposed to work i hope)From what i know, some files on the french disc differs from the english one when I tried long time ago to install it on the old 64bit tutorial, it may explains why your patch is not fully supported.If you have time to fix the other releases of the game, it would be so awesome! I can provide the french iso in private if necessary. If it works perfectly on the US version, it should work easily on the others game release, no reason to be buggy.By the way, does the multiplayer on Windows 8.1 works with IPX? I’ve never been able to get this game mode working on Windows Vista on my very old laptop. If you have a link/tutorial for this, please share:)Thanks again for all! I was having difficulties trying to play this game from the disc, so i’m extremely grateful to those involved with making this patch.i do, however, have a small problem.when trying to race, the ‘boost’ doesn’t seem to be able to function.
The ‘bar’ simply flickers when the correct buttons are pressed, and is very rarely able to actually fill the bar (with the red colouration).i’ve searched around and others seem to have experienced the same problem. However, they did find a patch (made by LucasArts) which solved the problem (along with the ‘white screen’), but the patch has long since gone.can anyone offer any advice? I would be extremely grateful. 2/6/15 Just used the new Installer you have created Jan 2015. Windows 8 machine on a DELL XPS and using a 46″ HD TV. 1280 x 1080 resolution was selected as on option on the installer.
It filled my Widescreen with no overscan issues. So that part seems to work ok. The cut scenes have sound. Once running in the game, no sound. I clicked on the Fix-exe icon to run as administrator and it the sound did not take. Still messing around with it.
Restarting the computer again just to make the sure the administrator feature sticks. I tried running the game using the original game icon provided with the new installerno dice. Video is crappy and same sound issues. So, with the Fixexe icon provided the screen display is gorgeous as I remember.
Video is smooth as I have a GeForce 760 card. Cutscenes are just fun to watch with that incredible sound track, but when I am ready to raceno sound. That’s it.Everything else with the game seems to run marvelously. Just amazing. Thank you and everybody for getting to relive the game again. Just running the Boonta eve classic will be enough!!!Terrence.
Bucko A51Hi I just responded in a brand new post.I still get the No sound card detected in the game option.All I had to do was enable my onboard sound. Years ago I must have turned it off.As far as the monitor goes.when your new game installer gave me a couple of boxes to check for resolution I went with the biggest I sawI thought it was 1920 by 1080, but maybe not. Wellwhatever that wascheck it!!! Anyway the game plays in something that fits the widescreen fully.
So, I don’t have any black bars at the top and bottomok, that probably is fullscreen, then not widescreen.but it looks great on the 46″. I have everything in High mode and through my Nvidia card got some anti-aliasing working for me. Now to try some 3D glasses with it. Samsung TV I have has its own built in 3D, I don’t use the Nvidia game card’s. That is an NVidia GT760 (from Nvidia itself) Wellanywayyour new Jan 2015 installer is the bomb!!
I think I am with Windows XP compatibility SP3, I think that was. I also run the game with Administrator when starting it. I do believe I tried the Vista compatibility with it. Have not tried the Windows 8 compatibility option.Hope this helps!!
Game works perfectly now using the fixexe Icon only. Trashed the original Icon that was given.
Enabled the onboard Sound chip in BIOS in addition to a USB BOSE sound system by itself and or a HDMI cable from NVidia Game card to a Samsung TV.going into the Game settings and enabling all the Audio stuff. I have widescreen 1920 x 1080.and awesome sound. Using an xBox 360 controller for PC. It makes the turns a little scary but getting better. Loading the SAVE feature of the game too, this seems to keep my progress ok.Just have to say.
It has been just over 10 years since I played this game. I am so glad you talented guys figured something out. I need to consider a donation. Thanks so much!Sincerely,Terrence M. Really struggling to get this game running properly I can get the SWEP1RCR.exe to load up fine but upon starting a game I get the white screen problem that a few people including yourselves have mentioned.
Frustratingly if I try to load up the SWEP1RCR-fix.exe program I instantly get an error message “Direct3D error – No 3D hardware found” when I first loaded up the original SWEP1RCR.exe I had a similar message on the pop up screen where you can configure your settings, start game etc. Saying I needed to configure my 3D settings however no such luck when launching this.exe. I have tried the DXWnd method of running the game but have only got the game to load when I use the racer.exe extension to load the game rather than the SWEP1RCR.exe extension that the guide instructs. I’m running windows 8 on a laptop and have searched numerous websites downloading the last patch from lucas arts to downloading a direct x control panel that apparently can help lower the graphical capabilities in line for the game to run smoothly, unfortunately but nothing works. I know your guide makes it very clear of the difficulties that getting this game to work can incur and that even yourselves simply haven’t been able to get it to run on certain machines, but I’m desperate to play this classic game again and any other avenues or possibilities you can think of that I could try I would be willing to give it a go. Hi, I think the 3D error is really odd and certaintly unexpected.
Just a suggestion, remove the program entirely, clean up the clutter if you have a program that does that, then start over cleanly.Every great once in a while that helps. Any virus programs interfere with stuff too. I usually disconnect from Internet, close any other running programs and then start game installs clean. Then I connect.
Steam games are the exception, but for these old games, this is what I do.Also, when the new fix program runs and get the small splash screen, go slow to look at the options. Then select as you would.
I almost missed my splash screen to tweak the settings, being so giddy about playing the game.Respectfully,Terrence. Hi, thanks for your reply.
I’m using a keyboard, and I’ve tried reconfiguring the controls, but the problem still occurs. However, I found out that the problem seems to come from the game running too fast. It happens almost all the time (I managed to play normally only once, and it didn’t last). For example it makes some animations in menus or the countdown at the beginning of a race going faster than usual.
I don’t know why, but the fact that the game runs faster seems to be related to the steering problem. The only time I could play normally, the game was running at normal pace and I could turn right as intended.Perhaps it’s because of my 64 bits Windows 7. I ran the game with my laptop (32 bits Windows 7) and the game works fine (though it can’t save my progress, which is a shame. I had to play the whole game without stopping to complete it:p). Strange indeed. Any other programs running in the background while playing.
What I mean is something taking your video card’s attention. Now, for the fact that a laptop video card is built in and usually “streamlined for economy” in a machine like that otherwise it could bake an egg from being so hot. What to do now is just carefully check the settings in the game. Experiment only one change at a time and see how it performs for that particular race. Usual standard stuff is to have the latest video driver as well.
Interesting to note that the device being used to control the pod racer could also be having some sort of glitch when switching to “tube arial” like that. For me one time my device was near failureor so dirtythe contacts inside were filthy (dust boot was torn) and then also the contacts inside were just plain wore out from a lot of play. Remember when troubleshooting, simplify everything as much as possible to find the culprit.
Reduce all the effects, minimize the number of keys.reduce the load on the game and the device your are using.Listen to your machine if it really starts to speed up to keep cool when this goes on. Right in there, the video chip is needing more power and can have game glitches when the rest of the laptop or pc tries to give the card or chip what it wants. When a game switches scenesit could be a memory thing also. See if you have the Maximum memory going to the chip or card for gaming. Allow as much as you can.Post if you have continued trouble.respectfully,Terrence. Except for a few graphical glitches now and then which I can live with (which might have disappeared since I put drawdistance back to 2) I have the game up and working on Windows 8, Intel Celeron, integrated graphics.I used DxWnd with Art of Nemesis’ config file and the original exe. It only works for 640×480 and 800×600 though, if I try this installer with 1024×768 the game doesn’t go fullscreen and appears as a windowed borderless 800×600 chunk of the game view (i.e.
Appears cropped). Yes, the video resolution limit in DxWnd is off. If you or anyone else has any suggestions I might try again but for now I’m pretty content with how it is working now:)As a big note for anyone who tries: Windows compatibility mode seems to break the zbuffer fix that DxWnd applies, i.e. I get the infamous white screen bug that way.
I have no idea whether this is OS/hardware dependent.Thanks for your installer, I hope this article gets a follow-up with more tests someday! Hi,I’m really interesting by the source code for make a French Setup:)Its possible to play this game with all languages:With NVIDIA:– Use the FIXED EXE.– If you got a write screen: Leave the game and right clic on the FIXED EXE, clic to “Run with graphics processor NVIDIA”, not with the integrated.– If you got a green screen and some HUD bugs: Go in your game folder/data/lev01/ and replace “outspriteblock.bin” by the English version of this file.
Its the only one file wich isn’t compatible with others version than English.Good game;). I just want to know if this file wich comes from the translated versions of the game, also works on the english version:)In the setup, I want to put an option wich install this file for the french, german, spanish and italian versions. This file fix the HUD bug for these versions of the game.And if this file works on the english version too, I can just install it for all version, and don’t need to put a special option in the setup.So, as you got an english version of Star Wars Racer, you can tell me if this file make your game bug or no.If the game works perfectly with this file, and you don’t have HUD bug, in game screen bug, or something else, then just tell me:)This file need to be there:“Star Wars Racer/Data/Lev01/outspriteblock.bin”Thanks:)PS: How I can create an account for your site? I don’t see the section for it. The new patch worked perfectly fine for a while. The white screen is gone.
However, I seem to have a problem with the keys. When scrolling down a list for example, pressing the down key skips all the options in between and goes straight to the last one. I can tell it runs through all the others first, but I cannot tap the key light enough for it to register once.Also, after my first race, the right key doesn’t seem to be as sensitive any longer. I cannot make sharp right turns, and can only hold my right key and wait for the racer to turn slowly.I’ve checked all my keyboard setting and they all seem to be fine.
I’ve got those two issues as well, I also find boosting really hard without this wrapper. As to the right key, I tried three different key bindings, and indeed it does work the first time, or for a few seconds.But with dgVoodoo 2.43 (another wrapper, use it with the original.exe), controls are fine, both in menus and during races. It’s still not ideal visually though, fog is emulated with this wrapper (whether it’s a good or bad thing, it depends on taste), but lens flares/sun textures often show through the scenery.However, strangely, with the fixed.exe file, the mouse and pad controls work fine, and the pad is the only device I can use to easily select something in the menus! I’ve also tried WineD3D (last version) by itself on the original.exe file, following its readme (renaming ddraw.dll and hex-editing) – the results are the same as with the fixed.exe file. So I’d think its the Wine wrapper that has some issues there.That said, the installer did most of the work and this guide really is helpful, thanks!! Great solution for my rig in both Win 8.1 and Win 7 64-bit.
Fantastic work of love from these developers. I knew I’d held on to my original install CD & jewel case for something for all these years. Once I retired my Windows 98 machines I thought I’d never experience the raw speed sweetness of ‘Racer’. Had to tweak the GPU scaling settings in Windows to keep it from stretching the image too much, but the game still looks way better that it ever did on those old 19-inch CRT’s. Laughed at how far PC gaming computers have come from Racer’s required 32 MB of RAM, Pentium 166. Worth tweaking your system to run this classic! Thank you for this.
Easy install with the new patch, and after fixing my Games folder (had to change it off read-only to be able to save) everything seems to work decently, except the controls in the gravity tunnels. Like another user, I am stuck dead center and have very limited control. This makes the track “Vengeance” impossible, as you will always hit a certain rock in the second tunnel and then spawn inside of it, being forever trapped. Just about put my controller through a wall before I checked back here and saw someone else had the same error.Frustrating, but still, at least most of the game works.

Hello there!I recently came across this and wanted to give it another go.I inserted the disk, launched through the SWEP1RCR.exe, and after a couple of seconds, rdroidgenome stopped working.then I launched through SWEP1RCR-FIX.exe, and it does basically the same, but it crashes as soon as the blue bar shows up. Letting is sit there for a while doesn’t work.Ran it as admin, set compatibility as Windows XP SP3, 256 colours, screen res at 640×480, disabled visual themes, nothing is working.W7 64 biti7-3820 @ 3.6 GHz16GB RAM,AMD Radeon HD7970Any idea what I might be doing wrong? Hi, thank you for this installer, what a gem of a game this is. After fighting with it all day, I have managed to get the fixed version running on my Windows 10 machine, and despite several problems, it is playable. I have however come across an issue that has quickly halted my joy in playing this brilliant game again.
I have just got to the first race on Oovo IV with the anti gravity sections. No matter what I do, I lose all control except for the roll axis when I enter these tubes. This means I got straight down the center of them and inevitably crash into the rocks. Unfortunately, I then re-spawn inside these rocks forcing me to quit the race. This is very frustrating as you can imagine and I have attempted it about 10 times now with no luck.
The keyboard has no effect either. Has anybody else experienced this?
Or better yet, have a solution? I am using an Xbox one pad and the nose up/down does work outside of these tubes, all be it it needs reversing which I have no idea how to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I’m having an issue, and I’ve noticed a few people above are having it as well, where the game runs fast and I am not able to boost or make right turns. It was working perfectly for a couple of days and today when I tried it, it had problems.
I’m not sure what to do to fix this as I have uninstalled the game and reinstalled it in a different location and have tried running it in various compatibility modes. The original file seems to work for the most part except for the graphics issues. I’m currently running Windows 8.Please let me know if you have any solution for this problem or if you need more information from me to come up with a reasonable solution.Thanks! After hours of try and error I managed to get the game running. But only in 800×600 resolution and somehow the game doesn’t save as it should. Even the config tool has it’s problems to accept changes, I can’t say why though. Right now everything seems to be working as it should except for the fact, that nothing I do is saved.I tried changing the resolution through all the possibilites you’ve listed in the article, but none of them have worked so far, I didn’t try to hack the.exe though, as I’m not sure if I’m able to pull that one off.
I don’t need full hd support, but a little bit better graphics would’ve been great, because thats the only reason I’m trying to get it to work on pc:P Before I forget to mention it, the problem with the resolution is, that any other resolution other than 800×600 ends up messing up the whole interface or putting the whole gamescreen to the lower right end of my screen cropping a big chunk of it off the screen. Any idea how to fix this?Nontheless this is a great patch and I admire your work! It’s great to see, that some people still care about old classic games. Would it be possible for the developer of “Install-SWEP1RCR” to include in the program, No CD Cracks and copy the gnome/data/anims folder and the gnome/data/wavs/Music folder into the install directory (C:GamesStar Wars Racer)? I installed Star Wars Racer from a CD using “Install-SWEP1RCR” and then copied over No CD Cracks and the 2 folders needed for the cracks to work.
I didn’t have to Mount or use the CD when playing the game. It worked GREAT! BTW, Thanks for this program to get Star Wars Racer to work on my 64bit Windows 7. I know this will sound like a broken record but I’d REALLY appreciate the advice:I’ve been getting the same “rdroidgnome has encountered a problem.” message so many on here have also gotten, immediately when I try to run Star Wars: Racer. It installs fine. It used to run on the same system (Windows XP Service Pack 2 32 bit) before my hard drive failed and I had to reinstall everything. I’ve tried all provided user patches, using dxwnd on original file, changed compatibility settings, updating drivers, and use of this tutorial, and I simply cannot remember what I did to get it to run back when I installed it the first time, 4 years ago!
This computer has no internet access so its unlikely any update I didn’t know about.What gets me is why would I get the “rdroidgnome.” message if it’s a 32 bit system? I know I’m overlooking something. I just tested the widescreen tweak and for me it works 100% on Windows 7 64 bit.
You need to make sure sure however you don’t only edit the fixed.exe file. I edited the fixed,exe file and the racer.exe. It didn’t work and I couldn’t set resolution to 1920×1080. Then I also edited the original.exe and I could select 1920×1080.So:1. Insert disc2. Download the badass patch from the post and use it to install the game.
Follow instructions. It’s really basic and it should just work as a normal installer. Make sure to run as administrator and unblock the file (Right click properties general tab check “unblock” press apply Compatibility tab “Run as administrator” Apply Ok.For reference, I highly advice to run as administrator. The unblock is an extra thing and can be ignored in my whole step by step thing:). If you don’t see it, don’t panic.
Windows just didn’t “block” the file.3. Download HxD (Hexeditor). For safety of doing it right Right click.zip file properties “general tab” check the “unblock” and press apply. Extract somewhere.
Right click properties compatibility run as administrator Apply Ok.4. Follow instructions to edit Racer.exe, SWEP1RCR-FIX.exe AND SWEP1RCR.exe. Do make backups.
Always a good idea.5. Start “Racer.exe” go to “Hardware Configuration” and click “Display Settings”.
Select 1920×1080 16BPP.6. Start the game. Or you use this:uncomplicated and easy to use.With all patches and fixes.
