Jetsons like vtol - Garry's Mod

With some more e2 expirimentation, I got this: [img]http://i419.photobucket.com/albums/pp271/A-Random-Newt/gm_flatgrass_daynight0036.jpg?t=1265005763[/img] features: -Semi holo body. -E2 controlled hydrolics controlling engine nacelles -W S A D movement -mild applyAngForce stability control fetures: W: all nacelles forward S: all back A: Left Side nacelles back, right forward A: Left Side nacelles forward, right back loosely based on Dr. Paul Moller's Skycar prototype [img]http://reneeashleybaker.files.wordpress.com/2007/09/moller-sky-car-m200x.jpg[/img]

need to emphasize that "loosely"

I didnt build it from referance. I didnt realize that the function was similar until I was done :v:

stop making this holo shit, just because they are holo doesn't mean its somehow an excuse to make something look shitty. This isn't a contraption- take it to wiremodforums I'm sure they'll love it

It. Is a contraption, as it is not entirely holos. I added them as an afterthought. Only there for a cockpit and something for it to sit on. A pure Holo thing controlled with applyforce couldnt really be considered a contraption, but this is made out of very physical props and hydrolics, with a very simple holo exterior which I added for lack of knowing what else to do with it. It is not made of holograms. Very differant from my heli. I didn't use holos to make it impressive, i was just bored. The fuction i found impressive. I haven't seen many nacelle based contraptions here.

To be honest a phx box would look better than that

Its good Balto but dont start posting every little thing with holos. If you make something epicly done with holos then post it :P

ive only posted two things with holos (o_o) just in a row, and I never got around to texturing it. I intend to completely renovate my system, and rework it toward the skycar M400 [img]http://images.businessweek.com/ss/06/03/flyingcars/image/8_mollerb.jpg[/img]

It's not really good looking. Try making that pic above me instead.

wow, lots of.. lots of dicks here... Lets see it in motion if you can, because 1 picture and some words are only yelled at like it's a terrorist threat to facepunch

Really, It's nothing aesthetically. If it flies good then it might be a cool base or something but it's not very pretty at all. Get a video.

Let the thread die after this next-generation constructive comment; We (I) do really (not) like your Jetsons VTOL, because it is very (un)detailed. You can try to (Un-shittify your contraption and) add more (detail | color) to make it (more) attractive to the community (Not sexually). Edit: You're supposed to read the next-gen comment in the way [B]you [/B] want to.

^that was one sexy comment. a well put one. make it better [highlight]before[/highlight] posting it [QUOTE=kp3;20023930]Since you are surprised i take it that you doesn't have one.

What I build is ment to be playable on a server. The things you people seem to adore so much couldn't be played in single player because they are unplayibly laggy. This was made for function and to be lagless. I like to fly what I build, not look at a sexy, laggy mass of props with horrid function, something that flys like a rock. Ive seen it on many an occasion. Yes. l know parent. I found it dreadfully unstable and crash prone. Thus I use holos, as they have similar properties to parented props, but dont show tendancy to crash ones client, and are more convinient. (next to be a fin only V22 ospery)

I made a 300 prop heli that I spent hours making fly realistically and perfect, it doesn't lag. Your point is invalid. Also you can make something that looks good in <100 props easily.

[QUOTE=Balto-the-Wolf-Dog;20062169]I have NEVER seen a non lagging sexy good flying plane,vtol,heli[/QUOTE] 1. Put your glasses on. 2. Go to youtube. 3. Go for either Edbergs or one of the nodex helis.

[QUOTE=Balto-the-Wolf-Dog;20062169]I have NEVER seen a non lagging sexy good flying plane,vtol,heli[/QUOTE] Maybe you should stop being on "[Uber Awesome Pro] we r uber - PHX2 and wiremud" servers By the way, I have non laggy sexy 200-prop A-10 plane, 220 prop sexy non laggy VTOL and my heli as I stated above. Pwn'd brah

^Says the fags with uber awesome pro rich people gaming computers Some good people don't have money for good things; Maybe there's some kind of tag to use if the contraption was made on low tech pooters.. like maybe "[highlight]-Made on low tech pooter-[/highlight]"

Because it's more of a challenge :smug: And maybe they're proud of it It's harder to make a simple heli on a suck computer than a super detailed tank on a nice computer. That doesn't cut the incentive to make it better.
