⏱Overview

SR Track Editor is the program that comes with Stunt Rally and was used to create and edit all of its tracks. It first featured in version 0.6 (6th release in Nov 2010) and in version 1.0 (10th release, in Jan 2011) it was already fully functional (could edit all track features, at that time).

I will describe here its features, from the latest version. It surely evolved with the project and changed its look in time. Unlike the Stunt Rally page, which shows the whole history, here I’m describing the present (it is free and open). And I focus on features, visible on GUI.

🔍Detail

Since the program is rich in features this page will be long. But also explanatory, for unique tracks and game features. I also reference any tracks that show off a particular feature with links to our online track browser.

Editor is 100% designed and coded by me. There were many contributions to the game, but none to editor. I customized it to be a fast tool for editing, as I was also the main user of it. There were few awesome people using it too and creating tracks for the game.

There is a series of ▶video tutorials for using it (from older versions though) and a Wiki page. If using editor, keep in mind that many places (GUI controls) have hints, so mousing over them can show a tooltip, possibly with useful information. Editor itself has help pages, listing key and mouse actions for each mode. Having seen all this, it should be easy to use it.

📊Features

One main aspect of editor is that it doesn’t feature an Undo/Redo, for me this feature was never needed and too time consuming to implement. We use quick Save F4 and Reload F5. One can also make backups manually of the directory. It is recommended to save often and on mistake just reloading.
