Faster Cars?

[drift501]

Is it possible to make cars go any faster than around 120. I have heard of a script made by someone called deadeye but I cannot find it. Thanks.

One of the tweaks by PvPScene made cars go faster off road - here

That sounds useful but is there something that makes cars faster on road. I want them to go ~200 to ~250.

The engine has a limitation that prevents cars from accelerating beyond 120. If you're looking for a solution for a single mission, there are some setVelocity scripts to simulate a nitro boost or somesuch. My DM Road Rage contains such a script.

Any faster and the cars wouldn't be cars, they'd be......rocket ships.

So if I use this

_truck1 setVelocity [200, 0, 0]

with truck1 as my vehicle does that meam it will start off at 200 and that will be its top speed for the rest of that mission?

No, it just gives your truck a one-off push east at 200 m/s.

I fou d this on the wiki

_vel = velocity _vehicle;
_dir = direction _vehicle;
_speed = 10; comment "Added speed";
_vehicle setVelocity [(_vel select 0)+(sin _dir*_speed),(_vel select 1)+
(cos _dir*_speed),(_vel select 2)];

So how do I use this. Where do I put the vehicles speed?

[drift501]

Anyone?

It depends on how your missions is built! The code listed will set the velocity of the car named _vehicle as soon as it is run. You could call it from a trigger if you wanted to boost at a certain point, or you could use it in an addaction command if you wanted to boost from the action menu. What is your scenario?

EDIT ---> It is still not going to have the effect you require though.
