Outlawed Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 It looks slammed because people are too lazy to move the shock bodies to match where they would mount to the actual shock towers and the shafts where they would mount on the axles. Not to mention still using box5's node/beam, but lets be honest people, you put your trucks down on the bump stops using precomp so it's easier to drift without highsiding. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voth Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 So 2/3rd of everyone in this thread have the same taste? Good to know. EDIT Actually out of the 50+ trucks in this thread 25+ are using a no nitrogen in the shocks setup, and I'd bet at least 20 of those trucks are using the exact same suspension setting. This is custom and replica projects My trucks are lower than original V4, but that's not the only thing changed in the shocks. I make them to fit how I drive. If this wasn't a game, or if everyone had a realistic setup, than my setups would be more "realistic". Original V4 (I think): shocks2 22, 44, 124000, 20000, 3, 9, 124000, 20000, 6, 6, 0.6, 0.9, 1.0, is 39, 4, 124000, 20000, 3, 9, 124000, 20000, 6, 6, 0.6, 0.9, 1.0, is 30, 69, 115000, 16000, 3, 9, 115000, 16000, 6, 6, 0.6, 0.9, 1.0, is 11, 64, 115000, 16000, 3, 9, 115000, 16000, 6, 6, 0.6, 0.9, 1.0, is My Scorched setup: shocks2 22, 42, 76000, 19000, 3, 9, 45000, 16700, 6, 6, 1, 3.0, 0.965, is 37, 4, 76000, 19000, 3, 9, 45000, 16700, 6, 6, 1, 3.0, 0.965, is 30, 67, 76000, 18000, 3, 9, 40000, 16500, 6, 6, 1, 3.0, 0.97, is 11, 62, 76000, 18000, 3, 9, 40000, 16500, 6, 6, 1, 3.0, 0.97, is 99% sure no one else uses that setup, especially since I made it and it isn't from another truck.

Klayton Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Actually your's is lower b/c when you lower the SpringIn values, there is less resistance for compression. EDIT: read post above wrong. Disregard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voth Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 That too, but I did change the numbers that are specifically for lowering it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Double.D ッ Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 My newest Deja Vu sits low, but also has more travel than a normal truck. I don't see why it bothers other people how personal trucks sit. If this was real, of course people wouldn't be doing that, but this is a game. Simple as that.

Outlawed Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 There is a bit of misinformation about the whole issue Devin, this started way back in v3 when we moved onto v4. Certain people thought that by simply lowering the chassis model (ingame mesh) it would alter your trucks handling. The fact is you have to modify the node/beam or values in the truck files (be is shocks2 or flexbody lines). Like I said above, if you have ever looked at Box5's node/beam that we still use, the shock node are less then half of the proper length they need to be (so like maybe 12-13" of suspension travel as a rough estimate). Most trucks today run 26"/26" or 26"/30". The lack of travel is even more compounded by improperly placed shock body and shaft models. Yes it is a game and yes people should be able to setup their trucks how they like, at the same time, what is the point of making proper handling trucks when people will lower their trucks, reduce inbound and outbound travel so their trucks is easier to race? (*cough*SSRS Grave Digger 20*cough*) I almost wish we had proper breakables because then with all of this would be moot since trucks would break constantly from the lack of suspension travel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTW Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 So this is pretty much done, looks pretty good I would say. I havent had much time on my hands because of football, so this is as detailed as its gonna get right about now. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Klayton Posted September 22, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted September 22, 2014 Well since we're on the topic of breakables, I spent my weekend making a completely new n/b for SUD to allow for breakable bodies and still have a beam structure for the chassis. Even before this I had a decent tire/tie rod/hydro breakable setup. Breakable with old version before new n/b structure New Node Beam Early stages of deformation 43 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergeant Politeness Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 So these things are in the works To go with what Matt said, Nitro needs red Racesource shocks and Krunch needs King shocks. Also now both have Ukraines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDT Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 The only problem i see with the soft body/breakable bodies is how bad they look online (Unless they fixed that in the newer versions after 37 i dont remember) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
