New Mod Release: Bicycle.90

(SphereCow) #21

1: Multiplied the updirection by the same direction subtracted from 1, which makes the vehicle ride so much smoother. Initially, I had a bunch of “if” conditionals that kind of made it feel weird."

2: You now have much better turning when not in the air.

3: Fixed turning, so that it doesn’t freak out at low angles. The issue was that I was multiplying the turn speed by the “up” vector of the vehicle, causing the turning to be completely in local space, rather than world space. Bizarre, since I always knew specifically not to do it that way. It’s still a tiny bit weird, but extremely improved over what it was before.

NOTE: Using recordRenderDemo, or any variable that affects framerate, causes the vehicle to tilt really weird while recording. Initially, I thought it did, but in actuality, it doesn’t ride as weird as it seems in that video.

What’s this custom nirvana thing?

If you guys decide to play online it needs to be updated first. I fixed the controls so they no longer suck a 10th as much.

It’s a place to play and test custom mods and maps online:

susefreak and violator have already prepared 3 custom maps for bicycle use, and we where going to test a “tour de Nirvana” yesterday, but it didn’t work out so well :wink:

So consider that a feature request: multiplayer online support :slight_smile:

How? What would you suggest for doing it online?

(Scrupus) #27

I’m not sure really, don’t know much about mod programming but got this error in the server log when we tried to run it:


function LocalPlayerGUIUpdateThread was not defined

That could be caused by something else, as I’m not 100% sure if we installed it properly for server use. But it sounds like some client thing that the server tried to run.

I didn’t develop a gui for it, really, but I’m going to look into it once I finish texturing this lady person.

Would you be willing to help me test it? I don’t get any errors client side. : [

Is there a place here for quoting the Queen song?

(matsy) #30

Always!

(SphereCow) #31

Lol. Oops.

Someone mentioned something about the horn? That’s the PK_MODESWITCH Button., and that could be made into a radio.

How about hoverboards for your next project? :slight_smile:

(SphereCow) #33

Next vehicle project I’m doing is probably going to be a mobile suit.

But for now I’m trying to get better at texturing/programming. I would solder pieces of wire into my face before doing another scripting heavy vehicle, unless I’m either better at programming(can use the source code) or am getting payed.

Cool Mod. Would of been cooler to do a dirtbike instead of bicycle. ETQW Meets excite bike 2.0 lol

(iwound) #35

bmx simulator. make a terrain with a simple track and race away.

(SphereCow) #36

I should probably release the 1.0 version that’s sitting around somewhere, or actually update the download link with a version of the bike that actually tilts correctly, like I thought I did.

I’ll get on that some time soon. :]
