Initial D Cars

With the new possibilities of vechicles comming into play with SL, and my current experiece with modeling them in SL and outside of SL, I feel like working on something new to do with the gender. Now I could just model some new type of car, or I could mix this idea with something else I am interested in.


This project is for all you racers out their that have seen a glimpse or have watch the entire seriese of "Initial D". Well how about we create a team in SL devoted into makeing all of the cars from Inital D??? Maybe even a little winding course of our own... just an idea. I feel this would be the best project for me to focus on. Hopefully I will find out if anyone would like to help me with this project. Any takers???

I will be posting some pictures about "Initial D" if some of you have not see or heard about it, all later.

I will be starting to work on the Toyota Tuerno AE86 as soon as possible (more likely after Apr 17th) if their is any takers to the project or not.

Do some late 60's muscle cars (like a mustang). that would rock.

all I have to say is 1968 Shelby Cobra GT 500 Hertz

All I have to say is go to http://www.supercars.net for some good car ideas.

But I would like one of these (Pininfarina Enjoy http://www.supercars.net/PicFetch?pic=2003_pininfarina_enjoy-1.jpg ) or these (Jaguar E2A http://www.supercars.net/PicFetch?pic=1960_jaguar_e2a-1.jpg )

depending on the detail i would love a Yenco camaro RSSP.

Mwahaha, Initial D, yes. I've seen the whole series and the movie, but don't quite remember it. Plus, it was all dubbed in Chinese. Anyways, I'd be interested to help, especially with the AE86 Trueno. BTW, I love tofu @@;; Find me in-world and i'll see what I can help with, though I'm not sure I can much...

i've seen few episodes of initial D and this project sounds interesting. although.. r u thinking about just making the models or have them race each other? and just how detailed do u want the cars to be?

I have already started work on the front of the Toyota Tureno AE-86, I am trying to make it as detail as the game editor engine will allow me to go. What I really need is Textures. Modeling it with plain colours can only go so far. I got a street with curbs along the side of my building where I am currently making it there. Come check it out some time.

i know theres a script somewhere to use your keybosrd wsad keys to move a object when you attch or sit on it. If i find it i can modify it for physics (*to stay on the ground!)( or not if you want ot to fly 'maybe a futurictic space car that the wheels rotate so the face is parallel to the ground!" and to make the wheels turn when you press "w".

It may take some time

Oh ya it will take a long time to get that working, I have already tried to do that and I have thought about the many logical stuctures in making the scirpt work. It is just hard to make many (if any) objects move while linked, or attached by joints. See u would have to make the wheels on a wheel joint, and also make it on a hindge joint also and I don't think that is possible yet. Still the best of luck for trying and helping me with this.


If u can get a scirpt to make the object fly using the wasd keys and also set up different keys to set the HoverHeight properties, please tell me casue that would be perfect for my 5th Element Taxi that I have already made.

I found the vehicle script and modifying it so only the owner activate it, (if not siren goes off and ims owner who tryed to get it.) Car door opens so you can acctually get in the car. And A Stereo System That Plays when you actually type in the songs name into chat. It works in sychronis with all linked items and is perfect. It lags sometimes when you enter a highly scripted area, but once it comes out 24/7 that shoul'nt be a problem.

I wanna make a 1967 Shelby Mustang GT 500 or a Mclaren F1

I don't know if this was in your plan but I would love to build the gas station from Initial D.
