Vehicular Model

I look at it this way. When the solar apocalypse happened it created a bunch of electromagnetic discharges in our atmosphere (much like really happens during very active sun spot activity). Due to these enormous fluctuations many electronic devices were fried in the opening days of the event. Most of the newer cars of the time had electronic ignition not to mention were controlled by on-board computers which were also fried by the electro magnetic surges in our atmosphere. So the reason you don’t see so many newer vehicles is because no one has parts or the know how to rebuild the computers that are needed to run the “Newer” models. So that’s why you don’t see the newer flashy sports cars. But then again I could be wrong. Yeah... how can we still loot electronic parts then, better yet, I heard ospreys and buzzers take quite a load of EP's to make, BPU's to... But hey, nice try there Rezeak said: You FF Aww, thanks, warms my heart a little when someone agree's with me (Rule #32 - Enjoy the little things) Many of the IC chips were burnt out but the resisters, capacitors and diodes along with the old fashioned transistors are still useable. It takes many boards to find enough working pieces to make 1 working board. So it’s not like you really have 50 IC boards stuffed in a chassis you have maybe 2 or 3. ......................... vet wv ped2 Posted Jan 12, 2010, 9:29 pm

But hey, nice try there There is a huge difference between circuit boards and resistors and full on CPUs and DRAM.  The latter would fry, where the former would simply be unreliable during an EMP. ......................... vet wv pvp3 Posted Jan 12, 2010, 9:30 pm

And why are you so against a different style of cars, don't like em, don't drive them, just like the Sunrise/Phoenix debate. Also, a full blown EMP blast would fry just about any car, regardless if it is a high or low tech car. ......................... vet wv zom gateautumn deathrceL1 elmsautumn pvp1 pvp2 sssc raceL1 e2g combatL1 santa1 pvp3 gwextrav ww circuit32,18,0 Posted Jan 12, 2010, 9:35 pm

IF I had a WRX shell in DW I'd gut the 2.0L Turbo and slap a 3L Rotary in it. What electronics? Heck, the one I drive daily in RLdoesn't even have a functioning clock and I do fine... ......................... vet wv cont Posted Jan 12, 2010, 9:45 pm

*Grograt* Grograts Gonads Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Marshals Posts: 8,377 Joined: Oct 5, 2008 but it sounds like your only proposing a plethora of pretty new cars, not everybody likes the idea of pretty new cars in an apocalyptic setting .... live with it ......................... vet marshal wv community Posted Jan 12, 2010, 9:46 pm

FireFly Anarcho-Pumpkin Privateers Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Members Posts: 5,468 Joined: Mar 3, 2008 But there are more people than me who likes that style of cars, and they don't fit DW? Fitting DW seems to be more of a skin thing, and if you don't think sports cars could possibly fit, how in the world could the supercars do? ......................... vet wv zom gateautumn deathrceL1 elmsautumn pvp1 pvp2 sssc raceL1 e2g combatL1 santa1 pvp3 gwextrav ww circuit32,18,0 Posted Jan 12, 2010, 9:50 pm

Fealty Lost Slaughterhouse: Bloody Remains Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Subscribers Posts: 1,258 Joined: Jan 6, 2009 Firstly, you have to change the 'design' and allow 'tunable' cars before introducing tuners; or you'll just have pretty cars that nobody uses because all you can get in that WRX is a wimpy 2L. "Classic" cars would/should be the hardest to find. They're already scarce...hence the term 'classic.' All us car guys know this. Pho's, Sunrises, etc., should be rare. All classic body styles should be rare...because finding one now worth fixing up, let alone putting into combat, is/would be a hard thing to do. Take a look out the window and see what drives by in the greatest numbers. J-body GM vehicles are the most prolific models on the road today [[ Cavaliers and Sunfires ]]. ......................... vet wv Posted Jan 12, 2010, 10:21 pm

That's irrelevant since the only survivors of the apocalypse were apparently ducking in a Japanese import garage when disaster struck... ......................... vet combatL1 wv cont0,5,0 Posted Jan 12, 2010, 10:25 pm

Nekojin Cats Laughing Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Contributors Posts: 1,039 Joined: Jan 19, 2008 Back on the subject of the more recent skins... I'm about 2/3 of the way done with a skin for the Winnie. Is it model-ready in the Showmodels viewer yet? Have to see it in the viewer before I can tell whether it's ready for prime-time. Edit: I think I just spotted a major flaw with the Winnie's skin. Where's the roof? ......................... vet deathrceL1 wv cont Posted Jan 12, 2010, 10:33 pm Last edited Jan 13, 2010, 2:06 am by Nekojin
