Comet Retro Custom Appreciation Thread


MGgames100

Recommended Posts

 

3 minor things i wish were different. First thing is that I wish the stock ground clearance was normal. RWB has made a car like this and i've also said this complaint before but i bears repeating i think

 

Second thing is that i wish the fender (stock piece and the flare) would fall off, Tornado style. It's not a good look when you smash into things and your bodywork gets really deformed and weird, and it would be better if they just fell off. I hope that if theres a normal non bodykit Comet coming that they do that (it is possible that fender customization would've been complicated by this a bit, to be honest)

 

3rd thing is that it would be nice if we had the option to paint the top of the car i the primary colour because i think that would be a pretty slick look

 

Pics

 

How did you manage to get the roof in primary color and the bumpers in secondary? Mods?

 

 

oh no i just took pics of the car with the matte secondary black and gloss red secondary without moving the camera and then used photoshop

Man, I took this bad boy into a stunt race at sandy shores airfield right now, it SMOKED a Massacro and a Linx by almost 3 seconds, this thing HUGS the road like it is nobody's business!

 

It's much more race worthy than the modern Comet!

Took pics of my friend's Retro Comet (PoisonedGas). I got myself a Retro Comet but didn't get the chance to drive it for pics yet.

I'd have liked a non-widebody version as well (like many others on here) but still, the Comet Retro is a decent looking car :)

They're still lame.

You're lame."I'll get my panties in a twist and call someone lame for expressing an opinion that's different from mine!"

 

People liked the stock Retro Comet I posted, other people said they didn't like it, but I didn't say anything because they're entitled to their own point of view.

 

Learn some manners, okay?

If he didn't like it, he shouldn't have come here and complain then. This is the Appreciation thread, not the f*cking Bitch and Whine thread. Besides, all he post in this thread is just to complain about how he dislikes the car and nothing else.

It's the Appreciation thread simply because car threads have been named Appreciation for years now - doesn't mean that they can only be used to say positive things about cars. I, for one, think '(name of car) discussion' would be a much better title to give car threads so that people like you don't b*tch about others having negative thoughts about cars but it's too late for that now.

if I may...

 

I get where you are coming at this from, which to me, is a logical argument.

 

however, this is gtaf.

 

the liberties taken by the less logical folk when the title is an open 'discussion' and not a strict 'appreciation' thread tends to end with not enough pics of said car and too many opinions being quote-trained... which there are lots of other threads for ;)

I know I come to these appreciation threads for pics and design inspiration ideas...

 

 

to stay on topic...

I've been messing with the 'drunk' camera shake in the editor to try for that motion-blur effect... this car deserves to be shown in its natural environment - speed.

How do you put the drunk effect on a pic? I'll apply it in RE but it doesn't stay when I change the camera angle.

In my opinion, appreciation threads are perfectly fine for actual criticism. For example me not liking that boxy grill on the bumper of the *mod* non widebody version. I still think the car overall looks great like that but that part of it bugs me because to me it feels out of place with the stock look.

 

What I don't agree with is going into an appreciation thread for a car you don't have any interest in and then sh*tting on it because of the fact that you don't like it. That adds nothing to the overall conversation or flow of the thread and only invites conflict.

 

To think that an appreciation thread should only be kudos and high fives is a bit silly though.

I'll quote my secret mentor -

 

 

 

 

 

- Taking pictures while using the ''Drunk'' camera effect can be used to create motion blur (learned that here on GTAForums)

May I ask which filter is the 'drunk filter' to create that effect? looks great.
It is not a filter. It is under the "shake" option in the Camera menu. I set it to the highest intensity and vary the speeds until you think you can catch it at the right moment. You will have to snap or screenshot it with the screen moving so it may take a few tries.

 

oCTPXZRmvESoO2Zf2mWa8w_0_0.jpg

from here - http://gtaforums.com/topic/876063-methods-of-taking-snapmatics/

 

set your camera up (make sure it is set to move with your player and look at your character or target vehicle), set up the shake and make sure your dof is set to your player, otherwise everything is blurry. I slow the playback video speed down, and press r2 to begin playback and when I see a shot I like I use the r2 to pause playback and then I take the snap.

lots and lots of trial and error.

couldn´t resist : bought a 3rd one ! this time a racer ! the wiwang livery is probably the best one (they are not so good in general) ...the problem is that it looks so awesome in black(normal black , not metallic) , but I already have one in matt-black ! never mind , 95 % of the parts are different , so I guess it s ok :

I never do custom tires but in RWB tradition I did this time.

Probably going to go back to the original front bumper. Thoughts?

-Car restoration montage-

I LOVE stuff like this! Bringing a totaled car and "repairing" it up. It's gotta be in my top 10 favorite things on this forum. Please do more, I'll pay in shark cards or something.

Good choice, I think. More pictures wouldn't hurt either...
