Native split screen multiplayer support hidden in FlatOut 1 and FlatOut 2

[jan-kleks]

Thank you for creating this mod! I am not sure if this can only be treated as an interesting fact, or maybe as something that could be turned into proper native split screen multiplayer (with some time spent on fixing), but there were actually two attempts to bring back split screen support hidden in FlatOut 1 and FlatOut 2:

• FlatOut 1 split screen mod forum thread: http://community.bugbeargames.com/threads/flatout-1-splitscreen-mod.11666/, archived download link

• FlatOut 2 native split screen mod video demonstration

Regards and keep up the good work!

Thank you for linking this, I have seen the video before and it seems to be limited to 2 players and I'm not sure how well it works overall. They also unfortunately haven't included their source code so aside from this:

In this stage of development the mod is using the modified "party mode" script changed to start a party cup with a hardcoded race track and race rules, plus using the gamemode "Splitscreen".

there's not much info about how its done. So, not sure if it will be useful to me, but I might search for that splitscreen gamemode in the executable. Maybe there is something useful there after all!
