>What is this game?
BallisticNG is a PC anti-gravity racing game available on Steam or GOG, based mostly on Wip3out, with optional mechanics from the newer Wipeout games.
If you like going fast, good tunes, and good fun, this game is for you.

>How do I join?
Get the game.
(Optional: Grab the Outer Reaches and Maceno Island DLCs too)
Download and install our track pack (instructions in the pastebin).
Launch the game, go to Multiplayer, and join us.

Links to download the latest track pack, install instructions, and some extras can be found here:
https://pastebin.com/d0KQeKGC (embed)
The mini-pack is just for updating from the previous version, get the full one if you're joining us for the first time or haven't played for a while.

>How do I play?
A 3-step guide will be posted containing the basics of going fast.
We can also answer any questions you might have, either here or in the lobby.

We have a Steam group: https://steamcommunity.com/groups/ballisticnv
This is used just for organizing race sessions or assisting if someone is having issues joining the lobby or something, no circlejerking. If you join the group chat you'll get a (You) chat bloop when lobbies go up on Saturday.

We have a regular session going every week on Saturdays starting at 9PM UK time, but hosting is easy and anyone can start up a lobby if people wanna get racist during the week.

i'm a wipEout pulse addict
should i bite the bullet and play this instead? it's BNG or Omega collection, i think...

overall i think BNG would be the better package
if it really has to be one or the other, you could always just pirate bng, we switched to using IP lobbies recently so you'd still be able to join multiplayer sessions as long as you have the latest stable version

HUD mod is all but done, all that's left to do is add options for user configuration, remove some unused variables, and clean up some other things.

https://files.catbox.moe/p2mx4s.zip (Google says the file is dangerous, probably because it has a dll in it)

In the meanwhile, this is basically the final version before it's ready for official release, and I think it would be cool if we got to play with it on gimmick day.

If you want to recompile the mod yourself (source code is included in the zip if you want to look through it), just delete the provided .ini and .dll files before following the installation steps.

To install, extract the VanillaPlus folder, navigate to BallisticNG\User\Mods\Code Mods, paste the folder into the Code Mods folder, launch the game, go to Modding/Code Mods, set the enabled field under vanillaplus to 'enabled', relaunch the game, go to Options/Game Options/Mods/ and switch the HUD style to vanillaplus (name isn't final).

Oh, forgot to mention, the only supported gamemode is single race/tournaments.
