Holy mother trucker! I'm hyped! Thanks Filipe; good to see a Rolls Royce based vehicle from you for once! <3

So luxurious! Very smooth ride, nice work with handling, and implementing the lights.

The one thing I'd do is give it a bit more roll. It corners pretty flat for a big ...saloon.

In my game I changed the masscenter to "0 0 1" and it became pleasantly animated during sharp turns.

My way to test and see if the masscenter is unreasonably high is to get in, orb, face straight down, and teleport, so it lands right on its front. If it tips forward onto its roof, the masscenter is too high up. I did this test, and it got back down on its wheels. So even if you land at a 90 degree angle, it'll still tend to stay upright.

I know it kind of stinks to ask you to change something after you've released it, but I think this is a nice, simple change.



Another thing that came to mind is that you may consider making the lights just a little bit yellow. In GTA V, one of my favorite things I noticed early on is that not every vehicle has the same color of lights. Modern cars' lights are a more bluish or pure white, and older cars' are yellowed. Not deteriorated-looking, but warmer. It's another small tweak that I think would improve the overall atmosphere of the vehicle.





Oh, and two more things, I guess. Please let me know if I'm overstepping my bounds, I want to be helpful, not picky, but:

I don't know how a vehicle like this would be balanced, but I suspect that it would be a little more toward the front, rather than the back. A masscenter of "0 0.5 1" moves the slight imbalance to the other side: http://puu.sh/icfUT/5e60d9f3ec.png

I would also consider making the vehicle rear wheel drive (and doubling enginetorque to compensate) by adding these to the function at the bottom of Saloon.cs:
Code: [Select]
%obj.setWheelPowered(0,0);
%obj.setWheelPowered(1,0);

Well thanks for the tips Teneksi I'll sure add them once I update the car.

Oh I'd just like to tell something, if you make vehicles and want to add a brand for it feel free to use those on my vehicles, like the Dalton, Nakata, Aurore, Brent, Quota, Fierra, Kingston and others.

Yea that's going to be fun switching all mine from NHM to all these (lol).

Surprise!

Yay a Subaru/Toyota/Lexus/Scion


Lexus? xD
Lexus was also a part of the making of it but I don't know the Lexus model name.

This car will have only Aftermarket parts, feel free to suggest your favorites!

Dat smooth shading, tho'.

Otherwise, God loving hell in a hand basket, that stuff's the stuff.

On a side note: for some reason, I feel like there should be some kind of "Storm Car" base off the Storm Pack you and Electrk released. Is there any way you could pull something like that off? That would be really awesome to see, cuz when you released the Storm Pack, you kinda sent a 'Tron' kind of vibe my way.
