Anyone want to make these cars?

I just finished these three cars for Midtown Madness: Chicago Edition. Anyone wanna make them for C2 or TDR? I figured since the models are too low-poly to work with (under 1000 for the body), you might be better off with the pictures and textures and make a new model from scratch. I don't have any good pics of the door panels (since MM doesn't require them), but I got some decent dash pics and textures.

Cool! More of those can't hurt. :wink:

Btw, they could make wondertful drones, low-poly and all.

probably.. but drone cars are totally retarded and not to mention pointless in c2, they just waste precious cpu power!, just my 2 cents.

only good drone is the train.. at least makes sense. other drones like sailboats and airplains in the sky are good also.

I think theres a lot of potential in those cars, if there adjusted correctly. I mean theres nothing wrong with the skins or the look of them. I would but I can't make cars to save my life!

Drone cars are retarded in C2 mostly b/c they all use the default settings for their class(train, car, plane)....and the "car" behavior is dumb by default...plus they don't have bboxes and therefore behave like cuboids. :oops: If you do nice bboxes for them, and change their category to "train", the cars will behave in a much more realistic way: they don't get respawned continuously and don't disappear so quickly. Don't forget that C2 wasn't finished....... :supermad:

I personally dont like them because they dont fit in with the all the other cars driving around.. its not realistic, so it just seems stupid. Its not like you can ask for tons of fully smashable 3d drone cars riding around, no comp can handle that!

Why don't you just switch them off in the "Details"-menu? Although that affects to the train and aeroplanes as well... :smile:

I think the streets look too empty without drones, but I also wish they had more options to fiddle with. Like better smashing, reduced sliding after a crash, maybe some wheel-to-road calculating, etc.etc. Gotta wait for the new game from Stainless...

I do turn them off actually.. the only tracks i play anymore are beaver city and the junkyard so its no big deal really :grin:

and sure the streets are more empty yeah, but oh well.. I also take out the amounts of pedestrians so it seems even more empty! But i think less pedestrians is more realstic, espcially when you use to see 5 pedestrian twins running around beside each other! not to mention hearing all the screaming.. starts to mess with your head! hearing all that screaming was becoming so normal for me.. id walk around in the real world and id hear people screaming for help and stuff... but I dont notice it cause hearing screaming is so natural!

Really big cities have streets filled with people, on the other hand...

Well I've solved the screaming problem so, that I've grabbed some sound files from various games. (Redneck Rampage had the most fun ones) Now, instead of 3 screams, there are something like 15. Oh, and there are some new sounds for other actions too, such as getting hit, dying, and so on.

heheh(!) ive modified most of the sounds, so they are less annoying, although i never added any new ones, dont want to do that, needs more cpu power!

i cut all the file sizes in half on mine by converting the sampling rates to help out game performance.

Id like to find a realistic car window breaking sound to replace the in game one, but cant find anything...

maybe someone could work on a mod that would give the drones a more "smashable" element...although i know nothing about programming, so perhaps it's too hard or nigh unto impossible.

as for peds, i'm still (sporadically) working on my dalek ped. i have the sounds and basic structure down, so i have a lump that runs around saying "you...will...be...exterminated!!" and other such dr who-ish things!! it will be fun, but i seem to have absolutely no time. i'm remodeling my house and working full time plus job searching, so bear with me folks!!

i'd like to do a Dr. Who ped-pack, with daleks, cybermen, K9, sontarans, and other villainous beasties. :lol: :help: :wink:
