(Not sure if I should post this here, or in the video section, since it's about the track, but it has a video, also I noticed the description says this thread is for everything but PC tracks so that confuses me a bit)
Hey. I decided to make a track where you drive an Armoured Personnel Carrier/IFV. The vehicle moves free of the driving line, and it has a positionable Mobile Gun System on top. Currently I haven't released the map, because I'm still working on making the steering not rage inducing. Once the steering is fixed, I plan to make a series of targets the player has to shoot using the MGS on top of the APC/IFV.
If you would like me to release the beta feel free to say so.
I thought I would post this to let you know I'm making the track.
Here is a video of it in action:
As you can see the primary front wheels are a bit temperamental, but I will work on getting it as good as possible before working on and releasing the full track, also please note that the APC actually travels twice the speed that it does in the video ( Screen recorder= frame drops)
If you have any questions please ask, and feel free to make suggestions.
Cheers. Good idea.Originally Posted by ObeseSpectator Go to original post
Will do! and thanks for the tip. =)Originally Posted by bassline001 Go to original post
UPDATE: That seems to have done the trick. Wheel glitches are rare now, and the vehicle is much more capable of climbing up steep surfaces. Cheers. =)
Good to hear that worked!Originally Posted by DietPepsi1997 Go to original post
I asked shady if this double post would be acceptable, and he says it's okay. So I hope nobody minds.
I haven't posted any evidence of my progress on Maximum Threat for a while now; infact how long has it been since I started? 6 months? You can thank Sixth Form, and Trials Fusion's physics engine for that (trying to get the APC to behave itself was a balancing game).
This video displays the progress made since the last video.
Description:
Release date should be sometime in January.This is probably the longest I've ever worked on a personal project, but it's still not finished yet. I have to program the enemy 'A.I' before it can be released. Then I can start work on the next mission.
Maximum Threat is going to be a series of missions where the player takes command of a fictional APC the "M17 BearCat 2" and has to complete a series of objectives per mission.
The player fights for the antagonist "Samsara Worldwide;" a global conglomerate that holds control over a region that the UN wants to provide a proper government for. The player has to fight against the UN under command of a brainwashed platoon commander who thinks the world of Samsara; who in reality just care about profit.
Video probably slips out of sync at some point because Fraps...
