working on dc remastered & more

[perl @dc_perl]

rendering instanced objects now, will make it a lot easier to quickly test editing their placement (entire thing loads <1sec for the full world)

[perl @dc_perl]

working on some dev tools

[perl @dc_perl]

gamebryo nif in #bevy #rust

[perl @dc_perl]

drift city -> blender
exported from lf, lof, lbf, loi, nif to gltf

[perl @dc_perl]

Dura parameters in the 0 - 2 value range

[perl @dc_perl]

If you ever wondered how your stats affect physics in Drift City, here's a comparison between DCR (~2007) and Stage 2 (~2010). Stat points on the X axis, physics parameter on Y.

[perl @dc_perl]

Dura had a new parameter added, which messes with the proportions a bit, here's a comparison with 4018 toggled off.

What do *you* want to know about how Drift City works?

[perl @dc_perl]

Given the small size of the Drift City modding community, it feels like it only makes sense to share what I know. I am starting with the User Interface, game.nui: https://t.co/qk7B2YHAC1

[perl @dc_perl]

did some basic UI comparison to start, want to render pictures of each version later

[perl @dc_perl]

send me more clients pls

[perl @dc_perl]

I promise to eventually come back with (relatively) interesting historical data

[perl @dc_perl]

@CatboyKalmer I wouldn't know, I myself never played at that time. But I've heard it being described as such by experienced players who have seen what we're working with.

[perl @dc_perl]

In light of the JPDC closure, I'd like to say that Stage 2 of DCR is going to be much closer to what JPDC was, but not the same.

[perl @dc_perl]

Also no Neo. But imagine just moments before Neo came.

[perl @dc_perl]

We're working with a much newer client, but with similar car physics to current DCR.

That means new UI, licenses, docks, glossy rgb paint, harvest, stuff like that. But no mini/st/bt.

It will feel more familiar.

[perl @dc_perl]

Since we're now on the last day of JPDC.. does anyone actually know why it received no updates from the developers for years now? Cheaper extension of license?
