FAQ

How do I turn the police lights on?
There is a key called "special key". It's B by default and it's just an extra key some cars uses.
Police cars use it to turn the sirens on and off while the DeLorean uses it for both toggling hovermode and time travel.

How does the DeLorean work?
There is a key called "special key". It's B by default and it's just an extra key some cars uses.
If you press the special key while holding W at the same time you will start the time travelling function.
If you just press the special key while not pressing any other keys you will toggle hover mode.

How do I open the car editor?
Go to the Utilities tab. Locate the SCar category and press on SCar Editor. A button should appear. Press it to open the editor.

Holy mother of god. Is there anything you can't make?

[Disseminate]

Jesus, this looks nice.

[Entoros]

It's like EasyEngine, but... easier to make. Fantastic job.

[ChewGum]

Video looks really cool, gonna test this now. Someone make a gmod.com news post :D

[Matsilagi]

Finally!
A bit of NFS spirit in an FPS game.
This will be great in an online match.
And good for some roleplays.
This will be in gmod.com, shortly...

[raviool]

Now THIS deserves a news post.

[Averice]

Wow this looks insane once again wonderful job sakarias.

[Elements]

So much for the Helicopter being your last project huh?

Glad you didn't stop =D

[Matsilagi]

Machinimas coming about NFS...
I hear that, helicopters, chases, planes and DESTRUCTION!

If only someone could make an NFS MW, Spirit, etc. Game mode. we use these cars, there are maps from the need for speed games with citizen vehicles, and cops to make blockades and like 5 cops chasing you and 10 other cops flanking. Paradise, huh? :2bong:

[Sodisna]

What will you think of next?

[-Xemit-]

Those cars are fucking awesome. I think that the only type of vehicle left for you is a boat.

[alexojm]

This deserves a gamemode NFSG ( need/for/speed/gmod )


And once again you and your epic creation have made my day keep up the great work man.

Is there a base for everyone to add their own cars to?

You've done it again, Saka-man.
You have once again proven to be worthy of your Throne on top of the G-Olypmos.

Haven't looked trought the code yet,but there should be...
Maybe....

Well sort of.
You will find this in the ENT:Initialize() function.

You just have to change the models and set the positions on everything and you got a new SCar.
There is also a commented line in the tuner stool (line 174) you should uncomment if you are trying to make your own SCar.
Whenever you use the tuner stool on a SCar it will print out the local position in the console.
Getting all the positions right can be time consuming.

X = GetForward
Y = GetRight
Z = GetUp

Please note that all models won't work with the script.
It only works if the models are turned the right way.
It's hard to explain but basically the front of the car really needs to be the front of the model which is not always the case on third party models.

how do i disable that pepole download scars files from the server

[Profanwolf]

The fact that you added musclecars makes me download this.

[Dlaor]

My dream of good handling cars in Gmod has finally been completed.

[DaKakis]

server with scars 83.233.110.158:27016

Great mod.

You will have to remove resource.AddFile in all files (and that's a lot).

How does re-fueling work?
is there a way for the Admin to force fuel consumption on for RP Servers?

[zupadupazupadude]

This is just awsome. The only problem is that sometimes the wheels are collideing in the ground. Is there a way to fix that?

[Sakarias88]

Yes.
Fuel consumption is on by default.
Admins can allow or disallow people to disable the fuel consumption.

Yep, change the suspension softness.
Increase it with about 1 - 3.

[Profanwolf]

The wheels keep sinking in :frown: Only the junker ones don't.

[Kung Fu Jew]

I think you deserve a user title "Magic Fingers" or something. This is amazing.

What's next, Sakarias?

Sinking through the map?
The hitboxes on some wheels aren't very good which results in that the wheels sink through the ground at high speeds.
I decided to keep all the wheels even the ones with the defect hit boxes since you can always change the wheels.

Yeah the ones with defect hitboxes are useless really.

Edited:

and the one that works for me, the junkers one is not really round.

Edited:

do tell which wheels have defect hitboxes

[alexojm]

Oh no am I the only one.

I don't see that cool speed thinge on my hud for gears revs and things. Allso the third person camera doesnt work for me. I realy want to know how much fuel I have left :0

[Profanwolf]

The only wheels that don't sink in, is the Ford GT wheel and the junkers.

Edited:

Okay the hummer wheels work too, but theyre too big for my camaro :frown:

[NikoKun]

Please Sakarias, put some sort of spawn limit on the cars!
Do you have any idea how easy it is for mingebags to spawn a huge number of these, and crash a server almost instantly?
Should be relatively easy to put a limit in the spawning tool, so people can only use 1, or maybe 2 at a time. There's really no reason for more.

That said, I already absolutely love this addon!

edit: Hope I didn't sound rude.

[alexojm]

Ah your inventions are so great any ideas for your next :D

It's on my update list now.

But if someone uses this for rp how can he make a profit from selling 2 cars :/

Ive got a problem the hud speedo and fuel.... does not show up :(

I will add a slider to the admin menu so admins can set the limit by themselves.

That's odd.
Check the console for errors.
Maybe the hud is conflicting with another addon.
Make sure you have the use hud and third person view check boxes checked.

[Tahrok]

Wow. Great job. I would have liked to see the front wheels actually steer the car but it looks spectacular anyhow.

I did all the above and nothing happened no errors and no hud display
