Crew Emblem Hood Ornaments.

[FatalPhantomAce]

What if there was a way, much like the varying sizes for crew emblems for tattoos and jack emblems, to create an ornament that would be defined by the lines of the crew emblem. The projected hood ornament would be a solid 'three dimensional' figure to appear on the vehicle whenever the vehicle supports them, if at all. Much like: Tips of hoods, Mounted somewhere on the vehicle, Displayed on certain rims or a special type of rim. See spoiler for Rim.

 

The cap covering the bolts securing the wheels.

 

 

A small feature like this could be well appreciated, and would add a bit more of uniquity to crew vehicles other than a colorful emblem. The ornaments could be defined off of the emblem already in place by the crew, or could be of a different design. This brings into mind that for each different sizing of crew emblems, you should be able to design each one separately from the other, to allow for better looking low-quality images on clothing and said ornaments. This could allow for an individual creator not only for each worn emblem but also for the ornaments and vehicular emblems.

A very iconic ornament. Cadillac.

This is what I had in mind for a 'three dimensional', but really only two-dimensional, ornament. The crew emblem could be laid out so that it is generated much like this; such as leaving very small gaps between lines to allow light to pass through along with the detail that it was meant to display. A detailed ornament like the one above would be nice, but if anything like the vehicle interiors; restricted to general simple quality. So if I wanted to make an ornament that looked exactly like this, each individual detailing shape would have to be separate from each other detailing feature. The editor that generates the ornament ( If not manually generated by the user ) would read each line as a place to add depth, or thickness to the image. Otherwise, connecting all of the details together would create a solid image, without the interior detail. The thickness generated would be a standard, or perhaps a choice of Thin, Standard, or Thick. The image would be generated from the top-down. So layers covered by other layers would not be affected and would not generate unwanted lines or textures.

Again Cadillac. 1941

But what if I wanted to display an image that isn't flat ? What if I wanted to make an organic potato shaped emblem for my million dollar car ? Personally, if would be quite cool to see the design aspect that the community could produce. This would demand a creator able to project a true three dimensional image, a basic image even. Perhaps if could be built up in layers, but as seen with the current creator would be very difficult. To create an emblem like this, it would most likely require the assistance of a third-party program able to design and import the 3D image into the creator. This is the least likely of the two to be implemented, if implemented at all, because of the amount of work that it could require.

I'm welcome to new ideas that could accompany this idea. I got this idea only because what I drive is a 2000 Cadillac Seville. Every morning I get into my car and see that hood ornament, and sometimes think " I wish I could put that on my car in GTA Online." I must have no life then lol

 

I searched for another topic with an idea like this. I was sure that one probably existed. I could not not locate one.

Seeing as how the many threads of "I'm Gay" Instantaneously gain 30 replies and become a hot topic to nothing more then thread-clog, I might as well just send this to rockstar and pretend this thread was never made. Obviously people have more important things to do than to observe the ideas of others and critique them.

Yes, we do. When everything has already been discussed to death a 1000 times before you tend to just come here for entertainment. Give yourself time and you will come to understand. Don''t take it personally

 

 

Sweet idea though +1

Thank you for the '+1'.

 

As for the 'you will come to understand', I already do, but refuse to take the path that many others have deemed the regular.

Make your crew emblem an Adder then put it on your Chrome Adder. Yo dawg I heard you like chrome ladders so I put a chrome adder on your chrome adder.

I like the idea, seems like it could be easily implemented.

quite the contrary, actually. They would have to code everything possible about every shape into every slot on the crew emblem editor into an extremely small, and virtually unnoticeable square.

I'd rather have the option to resize the emblem on the hood. I have the phoenix aka screaming chicken on my phoenix's hood bu it needs to be about 3x the size to fit on the hood like the real 77 trans am.

It would be intensive in the sense of being entirely worked into the game. The only easy part of the idea is the idea itself and how it should work. I believe that it is a feature worth having regardless of how little it may affect.

This would, if implemented, also be apart of the update. The fact that the sizes vary depending on clothing, vehicles and other emblem materials is quite annoying for how its automatically scaled instead of being manually scaled. The idea is not limited to the introduction of ornaments, but would require an entire rework of the current emblem editor.

I often wonder how many people truly care about this game...... or rather just its forums ?
