Triop

Converting the Golf into a sports model. Bigger wheels and fenders, removed the back seats. Spoiler, doorhandles and mirrors are a new addition. The new grip pads make great speakers, 1 in each door: And some big woofers in the back: EDIT: I made a VW logo using some small wings and a small air intake.

'Small' he says.... Cool Starlifter. ______________________________________________________________________ TODAY, PLAYING SOME GOLF.

To speed up wheels I edit the cfg file, I just increase the numbers and test them, not a clue about what these values stand for... Can someone explain these values to me please ?

What I really like is watching car building shows on youtube while I'm constructing a car. I like how simular building cars in KSP is, chassis, body, engine (just a battery, but who cares), weight distribution, tuning en and setup wheels for the best performance etc etc. I learn a lot from these shows and from doing this in KSP. I know there are lots of people on this forum who don't like what I do because I'm not going into space. Like it or not, KSP is also a boat/submarine/hovercraft/tank/jetfighter AND car simulator . . . Check out these guys:

I love how the Mun (Obi Wan: "That's no Mun...") is photobombing your picture. Cool stuff.

Today's visitor...

I made the VW emblem (NEBULA decal), I hate the wheels, doesn't look right, but it is the best I can do without clipping in the back passenger seats.

Update: The camo mod is great to get rid off all the lines. I do need to sort out the windows, those lines need to go . . . The windows are the only modded parts, the rest is stock + tweakscale.

The build of the car is ready, next up is mostly tuning and beautification, if that is a word. The front, simple and clean, I will make a VW decal emblem for it. The back, again, simple. Changed the trunk space, gastank nicely tucked away underneath. The dashboard, the dails will get some decals later. Enginebay, simple engine, single 400 battery and 1 fuelcell. As soon as the car is finished I'm going to rip out the engine and backseats and turn it into a rally car.

I love it, the station, the picture, it looks so clean.

That is only on the deluxe version. Working on the back, still needs lights. It looks a lot smoother with some paint on it. I also need to do the front and the dashboard...

I see my wheels are too big... My doors and mid-pilar needs some work aswell. It's very hard to scale a car for Kerbals, their heads are just too big.... This is what it should look like: This is what a Kerbal would look like if it's head was 65% it's original size: Looks way better to me....

I'm not really a big fan of the Kerbals extremely big heads, it's not like they have a big brain or anything. . . I would like to see the heads a bit smaller like this: Doesn't that looks like a Kerbal who can actually do cool things ? Original :

Update:

Worked all night on this, getting it into shape takes a lot of fine tuning. A layer of thick paint masks all the nasty lines. Still more stuff to do.

TBC

We are rolling, tons of more stuff needs to be done though. I have been watching too many car shows.

Update:

Started working on a four persons family car, I'm trying to replicate (kinda) a VW classic Golf.

Today, I don't even no what to say, things are getting strange around here....

Tell me how and I'll do it. Meanwhile, capitalism has reached the base.

Somewheeeeeeeeeeere over the rainbow...

Interesting, I love that it keeps the stages times and has a scoreboard. What are your plans with this ?
