Stupid Question About VROC & Spyboy

3 posts by 3 people · 23 Nov 1999 - 24 Nov 1999

VROC is the data base that list the races that people put up on VROc and you can join right from the web site. GSB is an interface to VROC which lets you see all the races listed on VROC shows you who is in the race and also has a chat room for all the racers to meet in. You can join, host or set up dedicated servers right from GSB.

Alright, Sorry but I have to ask. Does VROC & Spyboy do the same thing? From what I understand, VROC is a java applet and seeks out all GPL races around the world that are going on. Is that right or do those races somehow register with VROC? Also if VROC & Spyboy are the same thing, why would you use Spyboy when it's just 1 more program to clog up your hard drive? Thanks in Advance Jcharm

Also, the advantage of going through Spy Boy is that you don't have to run Netscape (which can consume a lot of your system resources) to join the races. GSB is very light weight.
