Wow, now this was a nice surprise! Especially after Reiliss getting made due to a simple friendly comment and now refuses to release his ready conversions :rolleyes:

I think Reiliss will come around, he just mis understood what was said I reckon.

I don't know what's happening with his GTR conversions, but I certainly hope he won't release them.

VQ, it's not the first time he's acted like this, the former victims were DC-Geezr and XR-Fez, and I have it on good authority that he acted just like he did towards them when he was active at NFSCars. Furthermore I do not like the fact that he rarely mentions who the models are originally made by.

true, i don't wanna know how he would feel like if someone else just shouts around with his own model (if he ever creates one alone), as if they belong to that other person... :rolleyes:
but let's stop this OT...

could you please talk about these new cars? :wave:

I tried the Golf, Camaro and DAF for now and here are some quick comments.

No faults detected, all models and textures were present on my Radeon 9600 Pro. The steeringwheel didn't turn but I'm not sure it's supposed to. The needles all worked perfectly. The VW is pretty slow but if it's supposed to be a 1.5 then I guess that fits (I've tried simulating a Peugeot 206 1.4 myself, and it is slow).

The DAF's gear-ratios are kind-of funny, get it rolling and it almost instanly jumps from 1st to 6th but if you're using truck gears then that explains it. A real truck would probably have a little more body-roll it's not that easy making that in WR without risking rolling the car over, even if it's a low car, at least not the many times I've tried doing it.

The Camaro is sweet, and the sound not bad at all, allthough it's strange that WR cannot play high volumes, perhaps it's coded in the sound-engine since Mercedes demanded that their cars were quiet. The handling with the sliding rear-end is nice for power-drifting which is what this car would do in real life due to massive torque and low grip from the old tires. WR's tire-model actually suits older tires since all cars always goes from grip to slide smoothly whereas several modern supercars have tires that starts to slip rather abruptly.

I hope this is enough for now, if you require more then feel free to ask specifically and I'll see what I can do.

haha,
if you even think the golf is slow, what would the corolla be? ^_^

but thanks for your big review, anyways!
no faults is always good!

and you got it, yeah, i really dunno how to make the steering wheel turn! and i got no chance to test around because they wouldn't turn on a geforce2mx either... ;)
(but that has changed today, gotta insert my new directx9.0 compatible card! :D )
