R.I.P Stainless

I guess it could have been worse...

Others outright ran away with the kickstarter money and never made anything...

So at least Stainless didn't steal the money but this is a pathetic and bitter reason to cheer myself up...

I am so glad that I didn't donate to Kickstarter. I would have been livid now.
Oh do fuck off.

I think you fucked off before I did, partner.

I'm not sure I follow, what did you actually do for the CMD community? One could argue you didn't even board the ship in the first place.

Errol might have put Flummery on hiatus, but not only is it a great converting tool: CMD-modding started with his work.

Not a lack of interest but a total lack of time. Unfortunately some things slipped (pretty much every one of my hobbies has taken a back-burner for the last 12 months).

Amusingly, the features mentioned in the quoted post were actually released in a beta of Flummery late 2016. There have been a couple of betas since then too.

Hey Alex, I realise I haven't posted here on the subject of your leaving. I'm sorry to see your leaving and feel somewhat responsible due to my "abandoning ship" on Flummery.

You're more than welcome to loiter in #carma should you want.

Hey Errol

You've played no part in me stopping the mods I assure you, if it wasn't for you I would have never started in the first place, I'm sure the same goes for the other few people who used flummery in any way so please don't feel responsible.

I've been quite busy with other work the last few months so I haven't had much time to be on #carma but I'll be back soon :)

Lured back indeed :)

I'm hoping to make some videos for my upcoming build, mainly to help Errol identify workflow issues and slowdowns. I'll do my best to narrate these as if it was a tutorial so maybe they will be helpful to someone.

Since the release of GOG Carmageddon, are there any guides on how to transfer these cars to work with the GOG version ?

Folder structures and such ?

Let me know if you need anything.

I would imagine it would work the same way as the steam version, copy your steam carmodgeddon folder into the GOG install and run the game in carmodgeddon mode. Haven't had a chance to look at the gog release yet :)

"Be very quiet, there is a spy among us"



Here's a quick little mod I threw together :)

Removed all the black outlines from the powerups, added C1 style circles and desaturated the colors.



Edit : Looks like my memory sucks since the circles on the C1 pups are all black, I'll revisit this soon, probably make some new powerup props instead.

For one thing The cars wheels folders are in located in the actual vehicle_carname.ZAD. I love the new barrels you did. the old ones look stupid.

That's not a difference between the two versions, the main ZADs just have them in the same zad, the same as the steam version. CarMODgeddon works differently to the main ZAD folder and requires wheels to be their own mod, the same as the steam version.

Game res shell is about 90% complete and I'm cracking on with the engine and suspension before filling in the shell, interior last then textures!

Hey! Great to se you back at it.

And nice work.

It really was sad to see people leaving, because I mean while the game is not all what we expected, but there are great improvements and maybe the mods could make it really great.

Thanks :) Good to be back making things again, got lots of plans, hopefully I can get more stuff released this year. Errol is back with Flummery development too and thats a big reason for my exitement. I love the process of designing and modeling vehicles but getting them into the game is really tedious at the moment so hopefully the new Flummery features help speed things along :)

Then why when I use Minge doesnt the mods from CMD work in the GOG version yet they work in the Steam version of CMD ?

Are you having issues with the latest version of Minge released yesterday? The one with the "path save" issue fixed and support for launching the GOG C:MD?

Hey guys, turns out the textures on all my mods were not looking correct due to GibbedTools being a bit broken. Thanks to Trent its been patched and I'm happy to report that textures are not looking correct!

Old Suppressor (Notice how washed out the textures are)


Here's what the colors are SUPPOSED to look like:







I'll reupload the fixed version soon :)

Ramblings of an old panhandler of the west. It works fine now. Three different versions of "Carmageddon" will do that to you :) Wrong directories in the same game, stuff like that.
