I'm a maybe, gonna have a baby between now and then!
@TinyBeard That's an interesting idea. I'll look into making that an option.
The server is currently hardcoded to use port 25144
on both TCP and UDP. If you want other people to be able to connect to the server on the open internet, you will need to open the port on your firewall. If you're behind a router, which is likely, you'll need to login to the router and forward the port to your computer running the server.
I updated the HydroSim page to mention this.
In order for people to connect, they'll need your IP address to put into the Join input field.
I plan on making a master server list, but haven't gotten around to it yet, hopefully soon.

I'm putting the Mac build up, however it may not work properly, I've been having issues getting the water to show up at all in standalone builds. Mac build also doesn't support how boat wakes are rendered.
@jeffdewalt Yeah I made the water a bit rougher. Eventually I'll make it so the water conditions can be changed.
@PeytonHopp I haven't had any audio glitches. I wonder if it has something to do with the trees coming into view on the back straight. Detroit will probably be the next course.
Happy 4th of July! An update is finally here!

Download HydroSim v0.5.1.0 (Windows)
Newer build available here
Working on the Guntersville course. Need to fix a couple bugs with course loading, hopefully an update soon.
The pits are really far away from the course, I'll probably need to implement a course map, otherwise its easy to get lost, haha.
Another update, been working on the Mission Bay course some more:
I'm also currently working on scene transitions/loading screens and plan to get course selection/changing done before the next update.
@markmoddy it's really hard to figure out unless you have the input debugger open in the unity editor. Have you tried the latest version of the game that I released that has direct input support? That should just work if you enable the prefer direct input toggle. Though there have been some issues (mainly with Logitech wheels).

@kebos Can you attach the player.log file here?
It's located in C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\LocalLow\HydroSim\HydroSim
.
Someone else was having crashes in windows 11 and it seemed related to having their wheel plugged in I think.
@low12a I will try to have another build up tomorrow that should fix some things. In the mean time, (without the game running) try deleting the inputBindings
file in C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\LocalLow\HydroSim\HydroSim
and rebind the steering input.

channel on discord or as a reply to this post.@skid2206 The only thing I know of that causes this is if you copied the 0.8.0.0 beta on top of an existing 0.7.0.0 install.
@smity199m You can, but it's really hard to drive with keyboard, especially turning or using the canard, because it's not analog. If you have a game console, you could probably use the gamepad from that.
@low12a I don't know a lot about laptop specs. One thing I usually check when people ask is how old the parts are. From some Google searching, that CPU and GPU were launched in 2013. That's 9 years old.
To put it in perspective. I didn't even start working on the game until 2016. So...while it's possible those components could perform better than what you have now. I couldn't guarantee that it would be playable. I wouldn't recommend spending money on that.
If you're going to get a computer with low-end or mid-range components, you're likely better off getting something newer. If you're getting a computer with older components, it's more likely they need to be high-end / top of the line.
The reality is that as more things are added to the game the higher the minimum specs will keep getting, so you don't really want to be at the floor performance wise. I try to optimize the game as much as possible, but there's only so much I can do.
@low12a Yeah, unfortunately, there's not really anything I can do about that. That computer is pretty underpowered.
@low12a you would need to upload the video to YouTube or somewhere and paste a link.
But it looks like you're only getting 8fps, which is likely the problem. Try reducing the graphics quality (Fastest), lower the game resolution, turn off Ambient Occlusion, Bloom, Water Reflections, set trees to billboards or off. If you can't get 60fps without other boats, it will likely be unplayable trying to race.
What are your computer specs? CPU, GPU, memory?
@low12a It sounds like your network is dropping lots of packets, are you on wifi? It might be helpful if you could take a video with the fps/network info visible (ctrl+f).
