The OppoMobile: Help Me Make It
-
I'm reposting here because it got buried on Oppo, but before the flame dies out, help me build a car in the Automation video game that encompasses Oppositelock/Kinja.
Features that have already been decided are:
- Wagon
- 5 Speed Manual
- 12 cylinder in the rear
- Low Quality
I need styling cues to go off of, ideas for the layout of things, tires, turbo, what this car is going to be good at (comfy vs. drivability vs. practicality).
UPDATE: I'm testing the cars now, one that represents Oppo and the other representing Kinja and G/O.
-
Sealed-beam headlights....quad.
Roof rack...?
-
@rallydarkstrike Done and done
-
@taylor-martin should look like a volvo p1800 with an 80s crown vic front end, comfortable, deeply impractical but has a roof rack
-
@sony1492 Foud a rounder body to simulate the Volvo, though it's not exact. The front end I can do.
-
@taylor-martin for sure a singular bar across the back for the taillight
-
I do love Automation...I have it installed, but haven't had a chance to sit down and play in awhile...really want to considering the recent huge update!
My favorite two cars I've made are a series of trims of a cutesy hatchback I've called the Noen culminating in a 'hot hatch' variant, and a rear-engined Eastern-Bloc style cross between a GAZ Volga and a Skoda Estelle
Those are some pretty old screenshots....I really need to get some newer ones... -
Diesel wankel!!!!!!
-
taillight fins...
-
Bench seats x2
And that 5 speed should be column shifted for added fun/questionableness
Lots of sidewall, maybe 16" wheels -
AMC Eagle as inspiration: manual, straight six, selectable 4WD, Brown. Tweek to fit your needs. I also really love old Datsun wagons.
-
Crown Victoria as a station wagon with Miata pop-up lights, Enkei RF1 wheels, brown, V12 but diesel.
-
@rallydarkstrike That little hatch is awesome! I still haven't figured out the career mode in the game, though I came really close to not going under because of my first car... once...
Playing around with the cars in Beam is a blast, if you don't have that, I'd highly reccomend.
-
@taylor-martin Yup, I do have BeamNG! They upgraded Beam awhile back so my computer doesn't like to run it as well...mostly a RAM thing (I have 8GB)....another 8GB is on order
