Latch · Post by **Latch** » Sat Dec 25, 2004 7:05 pm

in my opinion every car has a face. It's always been that way

Great video. Man, it got me excited even after the 5th time I watched it.

*picks up jaw from the floor*

to me it didnt really show anything new... major benefits are obviously seeing the game in motion. but overall look is still like S1, i wasnt really impressed with the car sounds thou i guess you could say they are still quite similar to the s1 sounds.

i wanted to see what damage happened after all those F08's crashed on that oval turn, but unfortunately it cut it off

the video will look alot like S1, but the handling of the cars in S2 wil change dramatically! I can't wait for that first race... and that first ever race will be saved by me and it will be online!

spoonsports · Post by **spoonsports** » Sun Dec 26, 2004 12:50 am

nah...the car sounds seem to be more refined...Sounds much nicer than S1 to be honest

Barge · Post by **Barge** » Sun Dec 26, 2004 8:51 am

JEEEEEEEEEEZZZ Why do they release stuff like that?? Looks so damn hot.
And yeah, sounds seem more refined to me too.

I can't wait any longer!!

Scottie · Post by **Scottie** » Sun Dec 26, 2004 10:55 am

Latch noticed that on the grid, the cars are in neutral, so we have the possibility of jump starts

I'd better be there

Sounds are heaps better than S1 to me.

Rots · Post by **Rots** » Sun Dec 26, 2004 8:44 pm

The sound is awesome!

Anyone else notice that the in the UF1000 shots the cars have the exact same front end damage? Looks like the AI still pile up on the turns

Post by **norbs** » Sun Dec 26, 2004 9:29 pm

What damage Rots?

Scottie · Post by **Scottie** » Sun Dec 26, 2004 9:31 pm

some of the reflections on the cars in that line there aren't as smoothe as they should be if you look closely, both on the front and back, they should be a bit smoother

hmm i dunno. those creases in the front are on the uf1000 cmx model as far as i can see

Rots · Post by **Rots** » Sun Dec 26, 2004 10:12 pm

yeah, the undamaged front should be like this...

Rots · Post by **Rots** » Sun Dec 26, 2004 10:30 pm

Ok, heres an inverted (a trick we use when image assessing vehicles at work

) shot of S2 screenie and CMX Viewer.

In the CMX Viewer it was hard to get the sun right, and I set the ground to black as it reflected the creases best.

Takumi · Post by **Takumi** » Sun Dec 26, 2004 10:59 pm

dunno i would be more inclined to say it was the angle and reflection map. there is some kind of crease there anyway
