#SuperTuxKart SuperTuxKart is a free kart racing game. It is focusing on fun and not on realistic kart physics. Instruction can be found on the in-game help page.
The SuperTuxKart homepage can be found at: http://supertuxkart.sourceforge.net
The official SuperTuxKart forum is at http://supertuxkart.sourceforge.net/forum. If you need support, this would be the best place to start.
Hope you enjoy the game.

##Compiling SuperTuxKart
###Windows
A project file for Visual Studio 9 (e.g. the free 2008 express
edition) is included in the sources in src/ide/vc9. A separate
dependency package is available on SuperTuxKart's sourceforge
page, which includes all necessary libraries, header files,
and dlls to compile and run the source code.
While compilation with cygwin is not officially supported, this has been done (check with the forum for details).
###Mac OS X
The latest information about compilation on Mac are on our wiki:
http://supertuxkart.sourceforge.net/Building_and_packaging_on_OSX
The Xcode project file is in /src/ide/Xcode/, but it still
requires that all dependencies are installed as explained on the wiki.
###UNIX
See INSTALL for details.

##3D coordinates A reminder for those looking at the code and 3d models:
STK : X right, Y up, Z forwards
Blender: X right, Y forwards, Z up
The exporters perform the needed transform, so in Blender you just work with XY plane as ground, and things will appear fine in STK (using XZ as ground in the code, obviously).
