[QUOTE=Amplar;37133414][IMG]http://puu.sh/PH7O[/IMG] holopad is a lot of fun. I REALLY suggest adding a mirroring function, manually placing those spokes (theyre fucked up for some reason) was a bitch. also, hope you get saving/loading working soon. it's tough to use the holopad if you can't leave it- can't really get materials without leaving the pad.[/QUOTE] [img_thumb]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/902553/Pictures/Screens/Holopad/holopad_2012-09-16_2.png[/img_thumb] Sorry it took me so long to get back to you on that :v: Posting here because I could use some more suggestions and you guys are the right people to ask! I'm running out of things on [url=http://code.google.com/p/holopad/wiki/TheAlmightyTODO]the TODO list[/url] but now that I have the tool-system done, I can implement some complicated ideas.

[QUOTE=TestECull;37693033]You can use a convar to enable the smaller wheels to spin fast enough for suitable speeds. I forget what it is though.[/QUOTE] Thats not it, constraints get screwy at 1200 RPM and cause(well my cars at least) to flip over, or pull severely to the left or right and crash.

Since my server's sounds for ACF no longer work even with scripts installed correctly, I've taken advantage of using custom sounds. I used the 3.7l I4 for it so it gives it a good amount of weight, but it sounds like an Audi I5 Turbo for now. :v: Biggest thing right now is colouring, I have NO IDEA what to colour it. I was thinking Silver and British racing green but I want your all's thoughts on the colour. Also if you have any suggestions for the bodywork too, they will be greatly appreciated and considered. Thanks go to Bayden82 for the steering "fix", without it this car would not handle the way it did, and MrWhite for the idea for the suspension, works great and is highly modular which is essential for a rally car.

[QUOTE=Slithers;37692951]I am aware of this, all of the cars I just posted have size 30 or equivalent wheels besides the Mamba which has 35s. I should stop being lazy and make rims....and there is no way Im using wheels smaller than 30 for speed reasons. I should have probably used smaller wheels on the GTS370 but whatever. Thanks for your input anyways. I need new toys, anyone got any ideas, every week I get bored of my previous work and build something new to have fun with like how children get bored of their toys and go play with something else after 10-20 minutes. Edit: A original classic car is better than an overdone classic car, paint job in the pic of that modified Vette though is nice. BUT any car with an LS7 is better than the original....[/QUOTE] I kinda agree with Slithers, i could never gate the miata with any setup above 85 because of the wheel size, even with max ang vel raised substantially, the little things just have no handling after so much speed. And thank god holopad has a mirror function, Would have been really handy with those miata guages xD

[QUOTE=Slithers;37693767]Thats not it, constraints get screwy at 1200 RPM and cause(well my cars at least) to flip over, or pull severely to the left or right and crash.[/QUOTE] Maybe that's why my latest creations shimmy so bad? I'm using 20 size wheels on 'em...

Oh boy I sure love playing with this graphic glitch too

You must manually add the paths to the engine_acf.txt and weapons_acf.txt to the game_sound_manifest in gmod/scripts, and make the file read only. [/quote] from mobility thread

so many fucking cars

Indeed, Reaper. Where's the motorcycles? The three-wheelers? The quadbikes? Even the unicycles? Be right back!

Be right back![/QUOTE] [video=youtube;QQh56geU0X8]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQh56geU0X8[/video] As of late I have been trying to build off-road utility vehicles using the single cyl and V-twin engines. Think John Deere Gator/side-by-side ATV. But I fail at building so most of it isn't even worth screenshotting, and none of it drives worth a damn so I usually don't even get to the "Make it look shiny" part in the first place.

[QUOTE=Amplar;37701232]...that looks exactly like my [url=http://i890.photobucket.com/albums/ac109/XanderKarbine/Gmod%202/rp_evocity2_v2p0029.jpg]super6 rally car[/url] also, make sure scripts are installed in the SERVER's scripts directory [editline]17th September 2012[/editline] from mobility thread[/QUOTE] I actually do have an NFO server, so I will try what you said. And yes, the inspiration for the car did come from your rally car. If you look back in the previous posted you'll see I said so when I first started the car. :v: I went my own way with it though. [B]Edit:[/B] It worked and my sounds are now working properly. Thanks Karb.

[QUOTE=MrWhite;37701449]Pretty sure that's where he drew inspiration. I mean, it [I]is[/I] a great shape for a car.[/QUOTE] I drew inspiration from it for my Estrela, and I mentioned to switchblade that it looks like the Super6.

ACF update released. Made all engines just use normal sounds instead of scripting because owners are too dumb and some server hosters fuck up the scripts. Added a smoke launcher, and sestze added ammo delinking after the weapon is 512 units away, as well as ammo blacklisting (no use of heat in mgs and acs and such) (woot)

Hate to see the engine sound scripting go since it did add a bit more depth to things, but I guess it's for the best. Plus we won't have to replace the folders in Scripts every update :v:

Sounds like it would be a pain to do, but I'm going to resize my rally car I posted earlier. It's too large when compared next to Karbine's Super6 and MrWhite's Raptor, the shape will remain the same, however the wheel base will be shortened, and properly sized to as close to real life specs as I can get to a car like that.

Earlier when we had them side by side, your car looked about the same size as my Raptor, or was I looking at it wrong? And honestly, mine should probably be a bit bigger for what it is, so i wouldn't feel safe using it as a proper size comparison. Whatever you do, I'm sure you'll make it look great.

I liked that raptor mrwhite

Fin Aircraft hate me. :suicide: I tried getting one to work and it refused to propell forward[it went backward actually] after redoing the fins it's now going sideways.

[QUOTE=JoeSkylynx;37708654]Fin Aircraft hate me. :suicide: I tried getting one to work and it refused to propell forward[it went backward actually] after redoing the fins it's now going sideways.[/QUOTE] You could just have reversed the spin direction :eng101:

Quick question. Anyone know how to align a prop to a plane using Precision Alignment? Essentially get angles of plane. Only 2 show in R menu.

[QUOTE=MrWhite;37708050]Earlier when we had them side by side, your car looked about the same size as my Raptor, or was I looking at it wrong? And honestly, mine should probably be a bit bigger for what it is, so i wouldn't feel safe using it as a proper size comparison. Whatever you do, I'm sure you'll make it look great.[/QUOTE] After plenty of thinking, I've decided to keep the scale where it is, since it wouldn't be worth it enough to rescale. I will, however, add more to the car and clean up some areas that are questionable to the shape. I've been grown so attached to it now that I don't want to drastically change anything to the point where it is a totally new car. It feels the right size to me so I'll just keep it where it is. On a side note that gearshift holo you made was sexy, even if you said it was old. [I]Quite[/I] sexy I might add.

Daww, you're too nice.

Removing the scripting won't change how they sound really (in fact i can make them sound better if i use stereo sounds), they just don't have a distance sound anymore. I don't think it will matter since most people spawn their shit away from you, so you don't hear it anyways.

Did a simple thread about ACF combat components and rules. Need some constructive criticism about it. [url]http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1212755[/url] This thing took 3 hours to write.
