The online racing simulator
I'm dying to see a finished car
Quote from XCNuse :in the midst of multiple projects.. uh.. maybe i wont get .. as .. bored

i'm also making my first car without real blueprints!
(and yes, i have done a car without any blueprints before.. but that was a concept car )

making a Sky, a subaru, the corvette and .. well.. this (another subaru):


dont mind the time and all.. i need to fix the settings for that scene, they got really messed up and now it takes forever to render and i get weird .. well you can see them

Say! That looks just like my WRX!
Some really nice work there, the xB is awesome.

And XCNuse long time no talk man! PM me your new SN

And don't tell me thats your car in your avatar, thats what I've been looking into getting as well (after high school or course).

Just got my permit too (lol I remembered the last time we LFSed was when you got your permit)

anyways, sorry for the mini hijack, hope to race with ya soon! ( i haven't gotten much better :P)
lol yea really long time no talk, as for the avatar, nope its a friend's car, and some serious presets in PSP lol

my screen name is still the same, i remember seeing you online a few weeks ago but i never said anything

here is the final door speakers:

and here is the pioneer DJS1000 mk3
(just the main of it, not the turntable part, is almost 11k polys lol)


lol i still have to do the materials and whatnot, those are just quickrenders, and i'll make my own texture for the DJS, right now its just the "blueprint" image i used
Speakers look a bit ricey/cheesy but the cdjs omg, amazing stuff. Have you got a pair yourself? Awesome piece of kit.
yea right i wish lol, at $1.3k a piece i'd LOVE to have one hah

its not rice.. its.. a showcar lol, if this thing could drive, im sure pioneer took the 110hp engine inside the xB and put something with a little more umph, i doubt the stock engine can handle what goes in this thing

this is the real car btw: http://www.pioneerelectronics. ... 0133078_154856949,00.html
no rice there

so much left :S
wheels/tires, interior, rear grill, americanaudio vinyl turntables, the whole area that those parts are on, the DJM peice i need to make which goes between the CDJ1000s, the screens which drop down i just noticed last night

basically i'm just doing stuff in groups, the past few days i've been doing only audio related stuff so once i'm done with that i'm gonna go to mechanics and fittings, and then finish off the interior and exterior

and i'm off all next week
i think i've found my base reall with this car, i think what keeps it so interesting is .. well obviously the diversity of all the parts that go into it.. and must i say.. doing these rear doors, they are thick as ANYTHING, they're atleast 8 inches thick :S (area including the wide bodykit) but still?!

oh.. right, and the DJM thing is.. making its way onward, i still have yet to find better references of those tvs and the vinyl turntables.. and the interior but.. whatever

Sorry, but that car and your speakers are 100% rice!
that bloody isn't rice tristan!

if it was rice it would be cheap speakers and fing ugly, you think every tuner car is rice... that car is worth more than your house i bet :S

if you think that is rice, then surely you think an STi compared to a WRX is rice...
Don't bring girly Imprezas into the conversation, but no I don't consider most of the STi stuff to be ricey compared to the WRX. Sure a lot is purely for show, but it adds up to a general, real, measurable improvement.

Silly speakers and amps, low suspension, massive bodykits and pointless paintjobs are all rice - they do nothing but scream "one, low IQ, owner from 4th hand" at people, and show a lack of mechanical or automotive understanding (although, like graffiti artists, it does show imagination and creativity, but they won't help a car go quickly or be impressive).
lol you're kidding me right? tristan if i were to guess, i doubt this thing could move with its stock 110 horsepower toyota engine lol

its not meant to make sense, its just..... awesome
you do have the idea though about the graffiti artists, and thats what this is going for
not everything in the world has to make sense you know
just as long as it happens, because as they say, you dont know what you have until it is taken away
uhh.. that is 100% rice.
Hey, where did the discussion on rice go? Including the amusing 'literally rice' pic? Have you been removing posts you don't like again Nuse, or is it a proper moderator (in which case, fair play)?
hmm good point. Someone must've been offended lol
Quote from Davo :hmm good point. Someone must've been offended lol

The ricers?

AAAH! MY POSTCOUNT! REDUCED! AAAH!
Nooooo My posts gone too

spam deletion

i dont have control over this section anyway, i only have control in file section
Good, because if you were deleting posts then I'd be cross, as you have no right to do that. As a file moderator, you are the moderator equiv of Baldrick, a dogsbody, doing a job no one else wants to do, and therefore, as a moderator (and not as a player or a person) you do not have my respect.

However, I find it odd that non-offensive posts about some work you are doing got deleted without any mention of anything from a moderator.

Just because you like rice Nuse doesn't mean you can run to mummy and daddy moderator when people say things that you don't like about it...
dude its not .. rice, rice is a car that not only looks ugly, but is made uglier by having some cheap 10$ spoiler on it, probably no paint at all just primer, some cheap ass neons, and a fart can

this car was made by a team of specialists...
therefore it can't be rice

it was deleted because it was highly O/T and spam

first thing you said there was a b*tch thing to say anyway, which should be removed
that would be like going up to a janitor and saying ha ha you have a shitty job.. thus i hate you, etc.

and because you said that, i've lost completely all respect i've ever had for you
Rice is ANY modification to a car that does not improve it's performance or appearence like the owner thinks it will. Fitting a wing to a Supra is just as ricey as nailed MDF splitters to a Punto. All In-Car-Entertainment is rice, as it just weighs a car down and makes loud music when even OEM speakers are enough to deafen (admittedly sound quality is improved in some cases, but most are installed for volume/bass).

The 'team of specialists' clearly don't specialise in cars

It wasn't O/T - It was about the car you are attempting to model, and no more spammy than some of your replies.

No, I have a lot of respect for janitors (I'm good friends with the one here at work, and know several people unlucky enough to be in that situation). You are just a power freak, and have enjoyed flexing your semi-moderator powers at every opportunity.

I bet my posts (and others) wouldn't have been removed if you hadn't asked them to be (or indeed done it yourself), and that is why I have a problem.

Remember RSC, with the terrible moderating? Well this forum has avoided that perfectly - we have great moderators. Don't abuse your powers by becoming RSCesque...
Why cant we all just agree that its HALF rice, and all have a beer, a group hug, and move on?

But to say, Rice isnt a car that looks "ugly". Admittedly, some rice cars do actually look , well, rice but not "ugly". I mean, they look maybe original and stuff, but rice doesnt necciceraly(sp) mean ugly, or in reverse.

edit : but i will say it wasnt spam, it was a very infomative and valuable discusion
tristan you know well that i dont control the media section (currently), but what you said was way out of line earlier

imo ... visually it makes an xB look tons better :S
shorter stance and wider wheelbase

and yes it did turn into spam when everyone went off about the ugliest car or whatever that was about
if you really want to talk about the true meaning of "rice" which is actually a WWII term, then start it elsewhere... just not here (obviously) or i'll go off again because i like tuner cars, and clearly.. if you dont.. then just dont say anything
I like tuning cars too, but sorry to break it to you, but that's not tuning. It's just a show off project, it has nothing to do with a car really. Tuning cars is about engines. For me, a tuned car is clean, lowered and has a powerful engine. It doesn't even have a body kit, most car manufacturers have nice cars, if they're not nice, don't use them.
There is a difference between tuning, and rice. Rice is not acceptable, and is allways in stupid cars/vans/sheds, with big speakers/rimz/teh neonZ/stick on nawz bottle/spotty teen behind the wheel. Tunining is as sgt.fliipy has said above, and is perfectly acceptable. Its also possible for a few individuals to comine tuning and rice to give a acceptable vehicle. And, if you wish to rant about how much you like rice cars, then go ahead, i dont mind
I don't see why everyone has to come into someone else's thread and start crapping on rice and whatnot. Someone said it to voice their opinion on the 3d image, no need for everyone to jump in and give their opinion on a a topic unrelated to the subject of the thread.
