Zero Racer is as of this time no longer the only working Race Car minigame map in Minecraft! This originally started as tests, then began to grow into an entire project. Work was first started around March of 2015. I decided to change them to Hovercars because I wasn't sure how to animate block models. I also wanted to go for something new. Partial inspiration for this project came from Mario Kart and F-Zero. Some of the tracks may be influenced by Hotwheels Highway 35 and Acceleracers!
NOTE:This map uses a resource pack that is packed inside the .zip file. This map is also in open Beta. So be wary!
Due to bugs breaking the map beyond repair, stress and boredom working on it, and other MC stuff, this project has been abandoned. If you would like to pick up this map, PM me.
Powerups
-Blue Shell [Currently goes rogue. Will be fixed in the future]
-Red Shell
-Green Shell
-Banana
-Star
-Lightning
-Bob-omb
-Blooper
You have the ability to select Car bodies too! There are 2 different types of vehicles. Bikes, and Cars. Bikes are slower, but more able to take sharp curves and better able to use powerups. Cars are much faster, and in the future may use a Nitrous-like function that requires charging. However, they have a wide turning radius to compensate and are less able to use powerups than bikes.
Zero Racer
Zero Racer is as of this time the only working Race Car minigame in Minecraft!
Disclaimer: Now before I start receiving claims and crap about this being a supposed carbon copy of the game on Hypixel hear me out. This was started far before that game was announced. I had taken a break from its development as this was largely a solo project, but still had some anti-derp help from my good friend SuperKael.
Seems legit, hm? This is hardly as new and revolutionary as you claim it is, and even you admit that.

Thanks! Some time within the coming months. Hopefully should not be too terribly long. I'm glad to say however, that the models will be reworked to HD some time in the future. I'm also working on other tracks, and seeing about sprucing up the current one, Hornet. I'm also seeing about working with Geshtro to create an actual soundtrack for this as well. I'm also going to be testing jump pads and boost pads. However, 1.9's release date may affect when that function will see the day to come to download.
On a side note, I stopped caring about false claims and such. Go ahead. Bite me. If I'm happy with the work with me and my friends have done, why I should care about silly people obsessed with flaming others?
I'm not obsessed with flaming you, but I don't approve of blatant lies when anybody can see on Google that there are plenty of working race car maps. You should really stop claiming that when it's clearly false. I don't see what you get out of false advertising, really. Maybe you should read what is being said and take on board that you have made a mistake instead of ignoring criticism?
But if you insist on playing the flame card and taking credit for work that isn't yours, then go ahead. I can't stop you, but you better expect to get these posts and your better expect to be in the wrong.

That note wasn't aimed at you. It was for the younger audience who may be quick to draw lines to this and plugins upon site of similarities. Not to pigeonhole anyone young, however. Just felt the need to update the OP in general. Which is something I forgot to do with the curseforge pages.
That said, I'm happy you came up with this post in a more relaxed manner. I had no intentions of false advertising, actually! I had checked for other maps via Youtube, along with my search engine, and turned up nothing. So, that's why it had originally stated that. The only other Race Car map I know of is made by Phoenix SC who is the same person who is making the popular Pokemon in Vanilla project. However, his map is still a work in progress. (At the same time this one is as well.)
I was thinking in terms of using a motion engine medium & aesthetic of something more comparable to actual road vehicles as well. So I was not thinking of maps inspired by kart racing that instead used foot, raw pig/horse, boat, or Minecarts on track based racing for their engines/mediums. Of course, knowing my insane derp factor that annoys the living heck out of me when I'm trying to do daily things it's possible I may have brushed over one that hasn't received much attention. Out of curiosity, can you perhaps link some of these other maps so I can see?
As for criticism, I'm more than happy to take in kind, constructive criticism. I just don't take nicely to seemingly snarky comments. Especially when they go in at a project's youth stage. Now, I can completely understand the deal against false advertising. Lets face it. Nobody likes it and it kills the advertisers credit more than an armored train smacking a tricycle. But if I may ask, why did you put it in that fashion, rather than asking why I put it that way, when there are other maps out?
I'm happy you stepped up so we could both work this out in a civilized manner.
One last thing, before you mention Hypixel, this was being made way before it. Words cannot describe how angry I was when I had seen first footage of that plugin.

Haha, I can imagine. I've been in similar situations. Do you mean this was finished first and just never released, or just in progress before that? Anyway, it isn't the who got there first that bothered me, as it sounds like Hypixel gets that without question, fair or not, but what bothered me was this:
Zero Racer is as of this time[/i] the only working Race Car minigame map in Minecraft!
Despite the fact that it isn't, and you've expressed this already.
Reading over my last post, it comes off as really harsh and I do apologise, but I did feel as though I was being targetted without being faced up front in a reply. It is not an issue now, that was my mistake. I'll keep this a little nicer now

Well, V1.2 has been uploaded and is awaiting approval. Changelog is on Curse as usual.
However, I feel the need to address this. Zero Racer as I've recently seen has had a few slip ups on updating. Starting with the 1.9 switch, this should be abolished. I will look into bumping up the quality overall. This includes updated kart and bike models. However, that will not be until next year when 1.9 is fully released and I have obtained a new modelling software. If I cannot get a reliable, simple way, to get the Blue Shell to properly target the person in first place it may very well get removed or unused. I will also look into making the game overallaster. However, I am limited with modifying the NBT's. As it apparently does not like changing the NBT of a Pig that is being ridden by a player.
Feel free to ask questions or report issues below. Thanks.
This is really cool! The effects are nice, and the car controls and moves in a really neat way. As for the whole Hypixel thing, I'm pretty sure they used plugins for that, not command blocks. Simply because plugins aren't as laggy as command blocks.

Thanks! I'm a major perfectionist, so next update things are going to be even higher quality. That includes updating the models and perhaps completely re-doing spawn.
Have had this coming as some may have guessed, but this project is abandoned. Time, lack of interest, LOTS of bugs, and frustration has led to this. If anyone would for some reason like to pick up this map, PM me.
Leaving the most recent download here because I'm not in the mood to deal with curse mods and their shenanigans. DOWNLOAD

Curse is outdated due to mods pitching a fit over my mac.
Big shout out to Opl for his model creator! Give him some well deserved credit.

Another shout out to my good friend SuperKael! He helped fix a lot on this map.
Figured it was time for a change.

Here's a video demonstrating the new motion engine:

Seems legit, hm? This is hardly as new and revolutionary as you claim it is, and even you admit that.
It looks so beautiful...
When will it be fully released!

As far as Hypixel, they use plugins.
