Exclamation customing

I think it would be nice if we were able to change our own car.
if there were a garage in which you can buy new colors for your car. just
personalise it. (for about 150$ per new color...)

EXEMPLE:a speedster is mostly red, with white strips. Change it to Balck with yellow strips... or any other.. xD

i tough of it... because it's a long time now : that ther is no new cars...





WAT DO YOU THINK OF IT?

That's what I thought about a while ago. But staff said that parts of the car would lag or they would have to make many copy's of the car.

It wouldn't lag at all I don't think, providing that we can separate each image part it'd work totally fine. o_O

Oh I was talking about having separated images like fenders or stuff like that instead of make many images of the same car. I was told that for laggy people that the images would look like there following the car.

What do you think of having NPC cars that randomly drive along the freeway? Like if you wanted to attack the car and steal its contents.
just a thought...

They were either bull ****ting you to get rid of you, or they didn't know **** about what they were talking about.

If your talking about the animation frames of the vehicles, all you would need is sprites for the vehicles. One main set, in different colors/styles for that vehicle and just use a param in the gani.

It would be very nice, I believe there use to be a server were the whole server was based on getting your car. Then customizing it and such. It was pretty fun. I know you cant see the tires on era cars but what you could do is make the car tires work on different terrains. So the car would be able to move faster in sand/grass ect.

Tim Rock, Why would you care about tires that you dont see them? They can also change the cars so you do see them.

I disagree, kinda. Not because the idea is bad, but because I think that we do not need cars at all. Era is small, and the new gmap is supposed to be even smaller. There is no need for cars.

Not to mention it would require a lot of work for something that isn't really that important.

Cool ideas, but costs > advantages

So maybe in the future, but it's definitely not a priority right now...sorry =S
