[TDSD] Technical Downhill and Street Drifting

Yes people, a new fetish!

It appears the Toyota Supra fetish is over and a 180/240sx fetish has taken over!
Soon after pictures were released of erh4bes SX, we now have tons of SX's being released on all kinds of blogs. Whats funny, is that every SX coming out, doesn't have a bodykit, same as what erh did. So take out your huge Tachometers and get ready to weld...or move or w/e it is these noobs do.

After Beto made his R30, many others did the same like a heard of sheep, bahhh. And after abominations of that car were made, the new fetish is the Toyota Supper. Many Supra's have been made in even the last week...

So what better to do that have a Skyline contest, which has nothing to do with the paragraph above.
Before the R30, the skyline R32 was one of the fetish's going around, so lets go back to the roots!

This contest will be a bit harder, and different than any other contest there has been..

So lets get down to buiznezz:
All contestants are able to choose from a Skyline R32,33 or 34.

Rules:
-Absolutely NO stolen parts (models, textures), even if you have permission
-You must give credit to the author of the main body
(In other words, you will be downloading a skyline(or converting), completely removing everything except the Main body frame / Interior)

-No Googoo juice, ( N single-o S)
-No Wide-body-kits
-No spoilers above roof lvl
-No Lambo doors or Suicide doors
-No huge ace speekar's or taco-meter's

Requirments:
-3d engine
-New Bodykit (Front, Rear, Sides)
-New Interior parts: Swheel, rollcage, seats, basic shiete
-Sunroof
-Add the author's name and a Confederate flag somewhere on ze whip (If you converted the car from a game, put that games logo on it)
-Your steering wheel must have a Logitec G25 texture
-Must have a bottle/can of Coca Cola in the cup holder aswell as a Coca Cola logo on the rear window of the car

The winner of this contest will receive the 2nd and 3rd place cars, so you all better make your cars really good, but not too good...because you don't want to loose your ride right?

Juges WILL NOT participate in creating a car.

More thoughts

It's easy to find video's of near-perfect drifting in LFS; "1000+hp", I don't think I'd need/want to go that far. In rFactor, you might only find a few near-perfect drift vids, and in GTA...well, thats a completely different story. In GTA, there are literally over 1000 vids, and only 1 or 2 have near-perfect drifting. With such a high population, you think there would be more. LFS is completely crowded with these "Pro" drifts, rFactor has a few, and GTA has little to none. So vids are an example of Population vs Skill.

Please, if it is so easy, make a video with perfect drifting.

Boredom Factor:

Well, here comes the Boredom Factor, in LFS you can pick 1 view span of cars to race with, and less than a handful of tracks to race on. The tracks are detailed, yes...but they can get very boring after only a few laps. And since they are only tracks, the corner's can be pretty dull.

In rFactor, you have map mods (yay), and you can have some pretty intense tracks. Mostly all tracks for download are professionally made, which means detail, and even some tricks or surprises along the way. Get bored? Download a new one, maybe one of those huge ass one, along with a new car. rFactor may get boring after a while, as you are required to download many many mods to get onto more than half of the servers. So enjoy SP!

GTA, has plenty of map modifications for not only racing, but even just some scenery, places to stay and whatever else there is in the list of endless possibilities. You can easily join server's on both Muilti theft auto and San Andreas - Multiplayer, yes..2 choices of Multiplayer networks. You can create server scripts easily, which have many possibilities. You can go: kill someone, parachuting, drifting, Role-playing, Suicide bombing..anything :D. The main reason people get fed up with it is because of the players online SAMP 0.1, whom are mostly complete noobito's. However, on 0.2.2, or 0.2X, there are many Drift, stunt, deathmatch and Roleplay servers that are filled with respectable players.

So for anyone who hates GTA just because of the noobs in the drift community, go play 0.2.2 or 0.2X and find yourself a good server to stick with.

Verdict: GTA is harder than LFS or rFactor.

In LFS, it is almost too easy to Drift, Saudi, Drive normally..w/e, LFS is easy as hell. It took me less than 1 day to become good at LFS.

In rFactor, things are harder than LFS, but in less than a day, you can learn it as well to LFS. rFactor is a bit more fun that LFS due to the many tracks and cars for download.

In GTA, things are definitely harder than the previous listed. Along with the massive amounts of possibilities in modifications, GTA's over-all driving is harder than rFactor, or LFS. In both other games, you can easy learn to drive like a pro in just a few hours, and thats that. However, in GTA..it may take weeks, to months to learn to drive good. Compare an SAkina run in GTA to a Akina run in rFactor. People even now have un-installed maps such as SAkina simply because: they suck at it. Many people just say GTA is too easy, and that LFS or rFactor is much much harder, but thats complete bullshit. Weather your using a Steering wheel, keyboard or even mouse, the difficulty does not change.

Just a thought. And just focus on difficulty level, not realism or feature bull-.

Meh, looked at the entry's to Drifty's FC contest, pretty poor results, still stealing parts and what not.

Thats why there might be a new contest...i said might

Well welll well...

And theres the BMW for ya :]

Kthxbai!

Well, after the long days of stealing parts, including spy3d's tacho and enlarging it...we have come to a new concept; CONVERTING. Some dude posts pictures of a car and says "Hellz ya mon, I convertotaterited it from Lemon Juiced 2". Then some moron comes along and says, "DUDE, THAT CAR IS FKIN WICKED!!!1, YOU ARE A FKIN PRO MODELER! 10/10!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" This is what I mean, Seriosly, HE CONVERTED THE CAR, it doesn't make him and uber modeler if he converts it, technically thats not even modeling. Not to say converting is bad, but there is just so much spamshit on people talking about how "pro" someone is at modeling with their new RX7...converted.

Hello all. SDrifter here.Since most of you wanted the jap overdose 4 and excel didnt made it, well guess who did heh, me.Im sometimes frightened that some of these cars can eat me D: some of them dont need windows (hemi rx-7,r33 dragger), while others aparently arent driveable rofl. Just riced badly D: like the greddy s15, i mean is that even mapped well? lol.By posting this i dont mean to offend anyone im just stating most peoples opinion. So here we are,
Pics:[P.S: I didnt have to look far to find some, they are basically everywhere]

As you should know, SA-MP 0.2.5 was put back into production. Traffic was one thing we all hoped for, but it is highly unlikely to be correctly interpreted. Sure, you can have bots follow paths, but so far they are having problems even doing that correctly. In other words, getting bots to move slowly and follow traffic lanes correctly might be hell for scripters, so there's a chance of traffic not showing up for a long while. Then again, on the bright side..

GTA United Muiltiplayer

Yes, there have been successful beta tests on SA-MP with the huge ass, kick ass GTA United Mod, which adds Vice City and Liberty City into a playable area in association with San Andreas. After the Beta server's and tests were done, nobody was allowed to share the files used for the beta.

"You could ask Kye for it, We can't give it out because Kye said don't."

"I remember in 0.1b there was a "hack" or something to play map mods. I suppose it's the same use for this."

Hmm...by the sounds of this, the SA-MP team is trying to allow GTA: United be a playable mod in SA-MP, if the second quote has some truth to it, could this mean handling's, and other map mods available for use in 0.2.5? I know there is already a method using s0beit, but for all the none-cheaters out there, this could be your lucky break.

We will see when 0.2.5 is released.

Korriki just Dokied you.



Oh ya, he's back
