I tried to play F.E.A.R. Couldn't finish it. :lol: Nothing else to say.

Mau and I came up with the idea of making a thread where we'll post our best time on certain tracks.
Let's do better than this!

Henlo. I'm still working :) A Little update in text-form:
I managed to get the "plate configurator" to work. As I already mentioned in the first post, I will be working with german plate formats for now. For those who don't know the german license plate Format: it's split up in 3 Groups. The first Group is a set of 1 to 3 letters showing which Region the vehicle is registred in. As Germany has like 170 counties, I decied to stick with the Berlin County for now. This can't get changed yet. Second Group is a set of 1 to 2 letters. You can configure them as you want them to have. The third Group is the set of 1-4 numbers, which also can be customized. It makes up 8 formats of license plate layouts you can choose in between, aswell as the actual vanity of the letters and numbers. This all works as an extra menu - which will be the Registration area ingame later. The vanity plate will be saved to your current car (or you can choose one from your list later, I don't know yet), but each plate can be given only to one Slot (unlike forza for example). Makes it a lot more realistic imo. The letters and numbers will be set randomly when you Register the car. You either can Keep it, or personalize it in Terms of vanity, which will be extra 15$ along the 100$ Registration fees then.
 
But - The part I am most happy about - when you freshly buy a car from a dealer you won't get a regular license plate, but a temporary 5-day Registration. This happens in real life too, most of the time.
 

The german temporary plates are White with a yellow bar on the right side which Displays the expiring date. This date will be generated by reading the current date and adding 5 to it. The first The first letter (or letters) is the County once again. As mentioned, this is not changeable at the Moment, and I doubt it will be necessary, as I only will have one City ingame - which will be a rough copy of Berlin. So the County letter will always be "B". The blue dot is just the coat of arm of the County. Nothing spectacular.Now it's getting interesting: the temporary plate have 6 numbers (in General). the first two (04) make sure the plate is actually a temporary plate. This won't be changeable. The next 4 numbers will be generated randomly.They are not customizable. This is like in real life aswell.
 
Now, the number plate and the date will be saved in the savegame. You have 5 days to drive the car around as Long you Register it within the expiring date. When you don't - you won't be able to drive the car and you have to take another to Register it. I don't know what to do when you have only once car, but I'll figure it out :cheeky:
 
As mentioned, both plate variations will be saved into the savegame. The temporary layout will reset when you Register the car. When you unregister it, you will get another temporary with a new randomly generated plate.
 
#DETAAAAAAILS
 
ALSO: Customizing and paint shop save values now. You can respray and tune your car and cast it to the open world driving Level (and all the others obviously).
 
And some random small fixes. Better light controls, lights enable by night, disable by day, and so on.
 
EDIT: Forgot to tell I started to build a database with all the small poops i might Need in the game again. Like paint Colors, names (which are already programmed) and other stuff you might remember from TDU - Car names, other car stats, Environment stuff etc.
 
I'm gonna post a Video of the plate Generation soon as I really like the Feature :)
 
PS: When someone wants to help me out in Terms of Environment design or graphics design (or Audio), I still appreciate the help :)
 
Greetings

Went to a car event last weekend. Took a few pics

 

 

A couple of shots from my roadtrip last summer. These are all taken in Switzerland

Update, burr burr. Just in case someone is still watching the thread :) Customization menue progressed a lot. Still some things buggy here and there, but all in all it works. Adjusting those cameras was hell. Now I either am going to make a paint shop, or I'm gonna find out how to cast the new purchased parts to the next level (the driving level).
 
One or the other, progress is kewl. :)
 
STILL NEED COOL UI, btw :(
 
Crits and suggestions welcome :)

Marco has apparently confirmed in a Facebook comment the content coming in the next bonus pack.
 
No idea when the official announcement will be made :shrug:

It's likely that this will be the last dlc for AC in my opinion ;)

Some event from today

Sooo I kind of started the customization menue. It are the very very basics yet, but I don't have much time to work on the project for very long right now :)
 
To answer your questions right away:
No, it's not the final environment nor lighting right now. It will be really pretty at the end.
Yes, it's inspired by Forza
Yes, the UI icons suck hard at the moment. I was focused on the technical aspect for first
Yes, you see tail light tinting in the video. Yes, it will be available for front and back seperately.
Yes, it will be controlled by input (buttons/controller) later and not by mouse (not only)
No, you will have way more to customize than exhaust tips
No, I don't have a life :)
 
More updates to come when there are some. Critics and suggestions welcome!

:bump:
 
I promised you a WIP video today - here it is!

 
Sorry that it's so dark, Krut decied to screw up the quality.
 
I didn't show some things, I realized later. Window wiper works, although it need some adjusting. Windows are about to work, but not yet. Gauge needles are obviously out of place, but they are technically working too, so it's fine for now. Also, I put some basic materials on the interior of Condo, although as you can see it's far from being done. Still requires a lot of modeling and texturing (and lighting, obviously). Camera's work "meh" too, need to fix it somewhen. Also the rear view mirrors are working, but are kinda glitchy, probably gotta hit up some guys from the Unreal Forum about it somewhen.
 
Sooo, yeah. That's the progress. Working on it 5-6 hours a day, result is quite nice if you think about that I didn't know any relevant information about programming a game about two weeks ago. :)
 
Let me know what you think. Criticism and suggestions welcome.

The front of the new AMG Project One reminds me too much of the more recent Mercedes buses. It just puts me off the design because of that. As for the new TVR Griffith, again I like everything about it but the front feels unfinished in its design. Maybe if they had called it something other than Griffith it would work better as perhaps I am still looking for design traits of the previous car.
