NFSMW: Ferrari Video

Post by Skyline_man »

So its been more than a month i guess since Arushan started working on a ferrari mod for NFSMW, and all of us have been waiting for updates since that, and here it comes now, a new video showing a preview of the car, i'll just force you to go and download it right away, we should all thank Arushan for the great work he has done so far.

Download the video here. - Thanks to NFSCars for the video.

Cheers Arushan. 8)

wow! That's Amazing. At first i thought its just gonna be the model of the car and use one of the existing engine sounds from the game, but WOW its actually got a ferrari engine sound!

HOW?? someone please explain how someone could just put in their own engine sounds in the game and not be working at EA? He owns a ferrari and recorded them? i highly doubt it, please explain how this is possible.

maybe he took the sounds from HP2...
btw, video looks great!!! i wonder also the car reflection update wasn't at full slider. Also noticed that his sparks at the end when he crashes are veru different from mines...mines are ugly and pixelated somehow...

Maximum credit to the guy. It's looking pretty awesome. No driver in the car though and number plate is ND4SPD as opposed to NFSMW.

If only I had the skills to create my own cars for MW. I'd start with the Freestream/Caparo T1 or possibly Bugatti Veyron - maybe a suggestion for his next project... :D

Sorry about the Widescreen video... that's probabbly why it looks stretched.

There were some left over sound files for the Ferrari 360 engine in MW.. those sounds were used. However, these sound files don't have certain samples... that's a bug I can't fix. Just be happy that it sounds like a Ferrari for now :).

There is a driver in that car, it's just not visible enough on Mike's graphics card... looks fine on mine here, but my card is way too laggy to get a decent video capture. And license plate texture is from NFS6, so it says ND4SPD, but in the release version.. it's going to say something else (not NFSMW).

Not everybody has such a super high performance computer you do BAM BAM.

The movie is to show that the car works, and that the sounds do work.

Now did it accomplish that?? yes

so is the movie succesfull?? yes


Thanks Arushan, lovely work!
Really nice programming! you got great skills!!

I have a question, why is the 3rd gear going so slow if compared to the other gears ?

its like:

1st: ----- x
2nd: ----- x
3rd: - - - - - - - - - - - - x

x: shift point.

isn't that how it usually happens? the higher the gear, the longer you can go without having to shift?

but its un-normal in that Ferrari if compared to other cars, just watch it again and you will know what i mean. It seems like if he has shifted to the 4th or 5th gear directly before getting the 3rd gear, thats how it sounds.

arushan's still working on the performance specs. AFAIK, that and some other minor things are what he's still got left to finish.

The performance specs do need some work. I haven't been able to find a source for detailed info on the ferrari 360. Here are the values I'm using currently... feel free to do some research, and post any new data with references to them.

Code: Select all

## gear_ratios (reverse, neutral, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6)
3.29
0.0
3.29
2.61
1.47
1.03
0.85
0.72

## final drive ratio
2.65

## torque_curve (equally split across max_rpm)
163
239
308.7
343.6
373.9
370
364
348.5
317.8

## max_rpm
8600

## redline
8500

I am happy that it sounds like a Ferrari but could you please tell me where these left over Ferrari sounds are?

and does this mean EA recorded a Ferrari but then decided to not include it in the game? I'm Confused.
