Revhead
NEXT UPDATE - PICKUPS / UTE CARS + Romanian language
***** HALLOWEEN SALE *****
UPDATE 13 - VERSION 1.1
Date: 13-10-2017
Version:1.1.3585
This time we were focusing on these major issues:
Car physics and control
We improved many parts of our physics, which resulted much better car handling, drifting and many more. Since some of you had issues with setting up the controller or playing the game via keyboard, we decided to implement a new controller logic and we have changed the way of setting your controller. We tweaked all controllers from pedals to the steering wheel.
We removed the Use Wheel option and added a new one:
Steering GAMMA
It allows the user to change the dynamics and characteristics of the steering and making it possible to set all kind of controllers or driving style. Lower gamma values means less responsive or less aggressive steering, while higher values means more dynamics when steering.
Localization
Finally, we have our localization tools, text, workflow ready and thanks to many volunteers translators, this version support 5 new languages:
Hungarian, Turkish, Danish, Ukrainian, Czech
Please help us to find and fix localization issues! If you see any, let us known so we can fix it asap!
Game balance
We have been monitoring our player's wishes, problems and in-game behaviours since the first beta version and we are continuously trying to make the game better and better. In this version we have tweaked and changed several parts of the game to make the game flow better.
Starting of the game changed (only when new profile started) and instead of pick any car to start with, Charlie will give you one in a decent shape ready to race. We would like to avoid to start with a wrong choice and make it hard to get a good driving feeling in time.
We also worked on the unlocking system and make more use of the skills. Revheads no longer can be challenged (new profile only) until you reach Pro skills.
Prices of some parts like engines or tuning parts are increased and tuning parts are no longer part of the newspaper's extra section. Use the shop to buy some cool tuning.
Content
Race is important part of the game, so we added 20+ more :)
Also new tuning parts, more differentials and gear boxes are available in the shop!
So here is a more detailed list what changed in this release:
- minimum resolution set to 1024x768
- 5 new languages (Turkish, Czech, Danish, Ukrainaian, Hungarian)
- completely reworked tire physics and steering
- removed Use Wheel option from Controller page

New Trailer Video - The Player's Best Moments
In the past several months, since we released our game many features were delivered from our roadmaps. Thanks to our players, many bugs has also been fixed. While we are busy with adding localization to our next release, we would like to refresh the trailer video, which we had made at the first release of Revhead.
At this time, we decided to build up a trailer video (or more) from your best moments in the game. Therefore we would like to invite everyone who purchased our game and would like to be part of The Player's Best Moments.
If you would like to be part of this, here it is how can you participate:
- create a max 5 min video while you are playing with Revhead, try to record those parts which you would like the most
- preferred format is mp4 with Full HD (1920x1080) or higher, but we will try to deal with any files arrived to us
- no audio due to legal issues (we will add music at the end)
- you can send 1 or more videos as you like, but keep the format the same and keep it under 5 min each
- optionally, if you want, you can also cut/edit your video(s) before you send it, but keep it in mind that it probably will be part of a bigger trailer
- it's a trailer, so we cannot accept video which "features bugs", incase some of you find that more interesting than the gameplay itself :P
- upload your file to any fileshare server (i.e. dropbox) and send us the download link via mail to support@revheadgame.com with title: Trailer
- please don't send video in mails, only link!
- you can use any tools you wish to record, but if you don't know any, you can use OBS (https://obsproject.com/)
The goal:
We would like to see what do you find the most interesting, which parts of the game is the most fun for you and we also want to show to the new players our existing player's best moments.
All those who's video made it to the final trailer(s), will receive a bonus (free) key per video, so you can gift a friend of yours for free.
We are eager to see what you like the most and what you want to share with the rest of the world!
Have Fun!
*** BACK2SCHOOL SALE ***
It's school time! Summer is over, the sunshine is off. It’s time to get back to the desk. It’s not so much fun, so we decided to cheer you up with a 50% discount!
Let’s get your friends together and play Revhead!
UPDATE 12
Introducing the shops! There are multiple shops to be found in the Noordu and Yanagin County. These shops are selling different product lines.
There is another important new feature for the cars, the payload capacity. There is two different limits to keep in mind, the space and the mass capacity. Do not use your Panania to bring home some big parts like wheels or engines. Here comes the benefit of the Jingu or Narnoo to move big cargo…
You can check the capacity of your car by opening the car info in the garage.
Don’t forget to drive back to the garage after the shopping to unload the cargo (it will be moved to your storage), because the cargo increases the weight of your car which can be affect your cornering stability and acceleration/brake performance.

Shopping... coming soon!
A new feature on the horizon, the shops! Are you frustrated to wait until the part you are searching for appears in the newspaper? Then this is the solution for you. Just drive to a shop, select the items you need and buy it then drive back to the garage to add the purchased goods to your storage. You can browse the new Car Catalogs to find the parts using brand or part type as filter or simply learn the Product Id of the part and use it for a search.
There are different shops (e.g. Tire Shop, Car Parts Shop). All the cars now have its space and weight capacity and for big or heavy parts you will need a car with enough payload capacity. Love the Jingu and the Narnoo!
