RKM

That is the version you upgrade to and lose the ability for chats. You want version 7.5.11.9

A lot of you are forgetting that a major selling point on the move from MTM2 to RoR was not only the much more realistic physics but also that it was and still remains a free game. BeamNG has potential but at the moment RoR is now in seemingly good hands after it was pretty much abandoned in favor of BeamNG. Right now I say just enjoy the fact that we have options we didn't have five years ago. Also as of I would say 2010 if you don't have a rather good computer you're not going to be able to run a lot of games very well unless they're optimized ridiculously well but even then you will have to make some compromises on quality in favor of performance.

Don't forget about us. #TeamTerribleInternet

Seeing as there are so many people signed up I decided to make a list so everyone can easily see what numbers are taken and I've also included downloads of all the trucks currently complete, if the version of your truck I have uploaded is outdated please let me know so I can upload the correct one. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1NPxlQQMyMB_2IUPzPSoW6g7NOfAhH_iP_RG5Y0Zi_rY/edit?usp=sharing And here is the logo that Brad made for us to use.

Brad you should post the SMORA logo you made in this thread somewhere. Also I think we're better off using a private server since there are already so many of us planning to race in this.

To make it short like Demko, no or not until you have at least some experience with competing in leagues as it's not gone well for anyone that just jumped in and started a league right away.

I have no idea but I'm guessing someone went full noob.

You could try making it all a solid object and using transparency to have it appear as it did at the event without the tire grabbing issue.

I can also make it.

All right, I've been back and forth on whether or not this was worth posting because I know it will probably aggravate someone or probably cause some sort of senseless argument but it's really something that annoys me and lately I've found I'm not the only one. There really is no need to have every single texture for your truck or track 2048x2048 or higher, the only things I can completely understand being 2048x2048 are the body and other textures which you see pretty much all of whereas a small bolt or even battery texture shouldn't have to be more than 1024x1024. We all know how poorly optimized RoR is without any of this being brought up but lately some of the trucks getting released I've seen have several 2048x2048 single colour textures... there is no need at all for this. A 10x10 would easily suffice for a solid single colour, making it a massive size with do absolutely nothing to the quality of it. Spec maps are a similar thing, you don't need to have them superbly large, 512x512 or 1024x1024 should be plenty. I understand we all want good quality everything but as we have all found out at one time or another that doesn't always work very well when it comes to this game so while we don't have very many limitations there are things we can do to help improve performance for everyone.

My own personal annoyance with that and seeing people blame their poor spelling on being in a hurry yet they will typically spell out words much longer than the ones they shorten. Now for something on topic....

So I heard there was a Bigfoot party.

Change sky type to Caleum in the configurator then you can change the time of day. I believe it's + and - on the numpad and you can hold shift or control to accelerate the time movement speed.

A moment of silence for everyone that threw themselves out of the window after reading these comments...

While it may not be the most impressive thing, we all have to start learning somewhere. I'm not directing this at anyone but something I still don't understand is how quick everyone jumps on someone trying to learn how to build something and while it may not be the best or most impressive why not try and be somewhat thankful that new people are at least trying to learn? I don't ever remember anything like this happening in MTM2 or even the early days of SM. Yes, you're all entitled to your opinions but you don't have to be a dick about it. (Insert comment wars here) I'm surprised no one has decided to take the offroad body style and combine it with say... the Willys body. Megamerc and Mad Dog II look quite interesting though I do see a few normals issues on the chassis for Megamerc.... but that's also why it's called the "Show Your Projects" thread.

It's freedom flavoured.
