  • WEBSITE, CONTENT, AND ITS VISITORS 4.3 years ago

    Presentation is literally the difference between 15 upvotes and 100. If the thumbnail for your vehicle is an unnaturally metallic glossy pink car in front of a black background in the shade, very few people are gonna click on it and therefore very few people are gonna upvote it. But if you change the thumbnail to a car in a semi-gloss salmon colour and white, with detailed floral patterns for a smaller detail, and give it interesting lighting that makes details pop out and attract the eye, way more people are gonna click on it and you'll get significantly more upvotes.
    .
    On YouTube, I constantly see people complaining that the algorithm hates them. But really what it is is their thumbnails are complete garbage and the names of their videos are stupidly obvious clickbait or uninteresting. They don't get views because people don't click on them, regardless of the amount of work they put into them.

  • Scout Weka 4.3 years ago

    @XjayIndustrys No because hinge rotators can only move in one axis. Every joint in this car's suspension must move in 3 axes, and the only way to do that in SP currently is to use 2 hinge rotators and a small rotator all connected to each other in the same place. This is currently causing the suspension to be extremely heavy and floppy and is the reason this car is at 2x normal scale.

  • Scout Weka 4.3 years ago

    @XjayIndustrys If 1.11 comes out with ball joints, my plan is to make one with lifted suspension and offroad wheels, offroad bumpers, a rooftop tent, a snorkel and camping stuff in the back. :)

  • Small Feature Wish List for v1.11 Update 4.4 years ago

    @SupremeDorian One of the main reasons I don't play SR2 is the designer. The lack of ability to multitask and the excessive number of menus is a right pain in the ass, and the fact that every function is in a completely separate place and can't be both on screen at once makes changing stuff quite annoying. Like, rotating and nudging. In SP I usually do both of those at the same time and it's fast and simple. But for some ridiculous reason in SR2, you have to navigate between 2 menus. It takes only a few seconds, but the fact that it isn't instant like SP drives me crazy.
    There's also a ton of other things in the designer that I absolutely hate, but they're irrelevant.

  • Is there any way to extend the amount of Activation Groups available for use? 4.4 years ago

    You could probably make it so when activate 8 is on, the activators do one thing, and when it's off, they do another. But that takes funky trees and I'm too tired rn to explain how :P

  • What we used to have to do in the olden days before fuselage slicing was invented 4.5 years ago

    @AndrewGarrison Sort of. I think the best solution is on each end, thee would be a slider for where the start of the fuselage is and the end of the fuselage is, so we have percentage completion. That way we could build extremely complex shapes way more efficiently, and also do crazy concave shapes.
    .
    So it's like:
    Start [slider, front end]: 25%
    End [slider, front end]: 52%
    Start [slider, rear end]: 29%
    End [slider, rear end]: 48%

    People ask because they don't know that SP doesn't have mod support for mobile. Most people who ask have less experience on the SP website and have other games that have mods.

  • What do you guys use to fly in simpleplanes? 4.7 years ago

    Joystick: VKB Gladiator NXT Pro

    Very high quality for the money, fantastic button layout, highly reccomend!
    .

    Rudder pedals: Thrustmaster T.Flight Rudder Pedals

    Do not reccomend at all, spend the extra money to buy Logitecs. The pedals slide along rails without lubricant which makes them very stiff. When you rest your feet the spring isn't strong enough to centre them. Often you can be flying a long and accidentally be side slipping without noticing until you lift your feet up. It also makes precise movements frustrating. Landing tail draggers is particularly difficult! At least they have toe brakes I guess...

  • Need help with tires 4.7 years ago

    @NikoBellic The one that I used to use up until a couple of months ago, it has a pretty good CPU, but tye GPU was absolutely garbage. Like, at least it has one, it was really terrible though lol. I could run about 5000 parts max but could barely run X Plane. Fortunately SP barely uses the graphics card unless you're on a custom map.
    .
    My new computer is hella powerful though. The GPU is a Radeon RX 5700 XT and it has 8gb of VRAM, and the CPU is a bit better than my old one, so yeah I can run MSFS on ultra graphics and low altitude at 50fps.

  • How to make friends ? 4.7 years ago

    @mLk17 Well, I find that if you're having to ask people, you probably haven't known them enough to be their friend. And if you're asking them, it might be a bit one sided, and the other person might not be that interested, but they can't exactly say no... so asking them is a bit awkward.
    My personal friends are MisterSilverWolf and Chancey21, as well as a few other people, as we all share the same interests and we find each other easy to talk to etc. But I didn't just go up to them and "ask" to be their friend. I just hung around them and did things they were doing and shared stuff with them.
