https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PrlkRIMgwxo Go there to download this mod (and to see some updated footage.) ----------------------------------------------------------- So, remember the whole "replace the Seaside Hill bobsled with Sonic's car from Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed" mod of mine. The one that I showed in a few preview videos of Super Sonic Generations? Well, I've made a bit more progress on it. ----------------------------------------------------------- Note: I will ignore any comments containing ideas and / or requests for additional features and / or other full mods (unless the idea/request is for something I was already going to do, or if it has a non-impossible idea that's actually really good.) ----------------------------------------------------------- First, the actual model has been heavily improved. I made better materials, I fixed the textures (and found out that a few of the textures were actually supposed to be reflections, and not diffuse maps.) I also fixed a few meshes within the model, and I even added in the various glass parts that Ninja Ripper didn't rip from the game. I also decided to do a test by messing with a few things in Seaside Hill's "Surf Sea and Sand" challenge act. I managed to remove the camera from the bobsled section (allowing you to actually see the front of the car.) Additionally, I changed Sonic's spawn point (to get to the car more quickly.) Finally, I changed the "bobsled's" speed. The bobsled has 3 speed settings. The "Starting Speed" setting determines how fast the bobsled moves when you first get into it. The "Min Speed" setting determines its lowest possible speed. The "Max Speed" setting determines its highest possible speed. By setting the minimum speed to 0, the bobsled can actually "brake." It's definitely wasn't designed with braking in mind, since you can still move left and right. I also found that holding the up button can make the bobsled move forward, much like it does when not using the bobsled. Lastly, I managed to use a combination of specific object placement and custom animations to make the car's wheels rotate. Likewise, I altered Sonic's bobsled-driving animations to fit with the car's animations. Sadly, I couldn't get the steering wheel to properly move, despite the fact that I made it move in the animations... P.S. - I used a no-HUD mod while recording this video. ----------------------------------------------------------- Now that the car is mostly done, the next step is to eventually work on a port of Ocean View! Or, at least, that was what I WANTED to do. It's now been over a year since I made this video, and I'll likely just make it available as a downloadable mod by the end of June. I'd just need to make a few more adjustments to the animations, along with some more updates for the model/textures/materials.
