Quote from: alanrotoi on June 21, 2024, 11:02:07 PMAnother masterpiece of design and adaptation to Stunts. The most remarcable detail of the car is the unique and clever use of the needle in my opinion.

Did you use the real performance data?

I used the base specifications of the le mans race car: http://www.mulsannescorner.com/SAE920309.pdf
And aproximate the best I could by analysing car's accelaration on old video footages (as I stated on stunts wiki https://wiki.stunts.hu/wiki/Mazda_787B). So it was the best approximation of "real performance" I've found...

Quote from: Spoonboy on June 21, 2024, 09:23:29 PM@Zapper thanks for updating!
The fender addition actually really helps the 3D feel inside the cockpit.
Really enjoying getting used to this car, and very much looking forward to racing it in R4K!

You are welcome!
I originally intended to get a visible fender, but I backed off on the first release because of it always being orange. But I honestly missed that, so now the cockpit has a more immersive feel :)

Hello,

I'm here to announce that there is new You cannot view this attachment. of the car.

This version has some corrections on car's wheel coordinate values because it was causing movement of the car when it is supposed to be stand still.

The paint job of the 18# car have the correct yellow band on top of the windscreen.

Also the dashboard now has a visible wing/fender, a correction on the number 9 speed digit and a grey rev bar needle (when using Stunts Needle colour mod) to match lcd panel background color.

Hi, thank you for all your feedback on testing this car!
I'm pleased to know that it is performing without major issues and specially having some enjoyment :)

I've define it's base grip to be slightly better than other IMSA original cars, since it is a lighter car. This car is also a faster IMSA car, but I think that is only because the original IMSA cars in game are slower comparing to real ones:
Jaguar XJR-9 has around 750hp
Porsche 962 has around 680hp

When creating the dashboard I was a little concerned about replicating the bar tachometer because of the game's limitations, but in the end it kind of performs well, specially showing revs in power band (6-9k rpm), the progress movement of the bar meter.

As my previous custom car releases, be free to use them in any competition ;)

Mazda 787B Stunts Wiki car page article is now available.

Hello you all,

A few years ago I thought I should bring a unique type of car, with a rotary engine, the 1991 Le Mans winning car, the Mazda 787B!



You can now get it ready to race STUNTS, just a week before the upcoming 2024 real event!

If anyone find some issue with car behavior, please let me know here.
In the meantime, I'll detail the car on a proper Stunts Wiki page.

Hello, I'me here just to announce that there is a new release of CarEdit3 3.3.1 for download.

The reason for this update was because there was some bug in the Gfx Rev meter screen that caused the Y coordinates to not be edited.

Enjoy.

PS: I think that I forgot to mention here a BIG thank you for Duplode and his contributions on this software.

Hi Cas,

Quote from: Overdrijf on March 07, 2023, 05:37:40 AMClever, fixes half of the flicker too. Even if the look-through effect was very cool.

Yes, that was the first intention... :'(  But, it's for the good functioning of replay handling controls.  :)

In order to fix a glitch (as mentioned by Argammon's post) that affects game's replay control presentation, I'd to change a little bit the position of the side mirrors part on car's dashboard in order to lift the non opaque part it.

So I've modified STDAZMP4.VSH file and released a new version 1.1 of McLaren Honda MP4/4 car. (It should be OK to use in competition since no changes were made in RES file)

As you know, fiddling with the mechanics of the game isn't my strong point so I am here asking for your help.  8)
Is anyone able to fix the MCLaren before it becomes a competitive car in the coming month?  :)

The glitches really take away some of the fun racing with it.



Hello Argammon,

Are you referring those glitches to funcionning of rev counter in McLaren MP4/4 dashboard?

If yes, unfortunately it's a consequence of the position of de rev counter on the outside of the steering wheel...
