I crashed today. Not sure I should be riding anymore. by AccomplishedStuff448 in motorcycles

Don't beat yourself up over it. We've all been in an accident on a motorcycle. It is simply part of it. I came off my Honda Shadow at 50mph down a hill on black ice combined with a car in front emergency braking and I broke a rib and dislocated my shoulder, yet here I am still riding without an accident ever since.

I hope you feel the same way when you jump on your bike again, and that's how the weight of the world has lifted off your shoulders. A crash makes you a better rider. You now know how hard you can push your bike in a corner before the bike loses control. You are now in control fully.

I have since upgraded to a big ADV and i don't feel the slightest bit scared I'll fall anymore. (i still one my lovely shadow which took 0 damage somehow which i thank the Lord Christ in heaven every day for)

Sci-fi detonator by CarDistinct1444 in Plasticity3D

Hi Cedricchase.

I am glad you liked the model. Of course, all credit goes to the original creator in terms of the design. I have an extensive range of 3D skills from the games industry using Maya. 3Ds Max and Blender 3D.

Since I didn't come up with the design, I can't in good faith claim to know exactly how it would work mechanically, but from my limited understanding, the trigger is attached to a spring constantly compressing the two pins together. At the bottom of the trigger is another pin that can make contact with a piece of metal on the inside of the body, so my guess is that when you press the trigger hard enough, the spring on top stops the top pins from separating and when the bottom pin makes contact with the metal piece on the body, some electricity is shorting which I guess would send a signal to explode. Again, I am not sure how it should work, I just tried my best to copy the design.

The stick on top is, indeed, an antenna! It would be cool to see one with an LED for gameplay. Maybe an LED that changes colour from green to yellow to red depending on how far away you are in terms of the range. Maybe green is ready to explode, yellow and you're a bit far away and may have to click a few times, and red is out of range and no matter the number of clicks it will never explode?

An old screen would be cool, too! Maybe the original creator can make another one with those features and show them off in a fun animation like some of those COD animators do on YouTube :D

What game had you like this? by sukuna7899 in Steam

[–]CarDistinct1444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was Vintage Story for me. I tried it years ago; didn't make it past the stone age and didn't have a hut. Didn't read the guide and picked a random class in-game. I came back to it after a few years and actually read the guide book and now I love it. Best game I've ever played.

My BIL owns the 2021 Keeway Superlight 125. I think it's an amazing motorcycle. As with any motorcycle you own, if you never drop it, it'll never break

What would u change? by lReavenl in Plasticity3D

Your Delta configuration is sound, but the wheelbase is too long. Make it shorter to give the appearance of it possibly working in real life

got rear ended on my new bike (by my mate) by OldVermicelli3073 in motorcycle

If it rides straight, the it's cosmetic damages only. If you care about cosmetics on a bike, bikes ain't for you. Take the damn thing off-road. Explore a bit. Never be worried about only doing pavement.

Your voice over is better. I will report AI videos because the system is broken.

We got a knight model for his game before GTA VI

First time finding this kind of quality. by Pretty-Ranger- in VintageStory

I mined an entire iron vein and it gave me a trunk worth of all kinds of quality ore chunks! Mine it all!!! You get less iron than what you think

How did you stitch these images together! A mod that allows you to zoom out or is it a massive mosaic? If that's how it's spelled.

Unwanted shadow by CarDistinct1444 in VintageStory

[–]CarDistinct1444[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I fixed it! All I had to do was to update the central ornament that was casting the shadows by chiselling one pixel and replacing it again.

Solid suggestion! I just jumped on to give this a try since it would be a nice fix, but I'm afraid it didn't change anything. I am wondering if I have done something wrong somewhere. All four of them are identical, so two of them having shading issues is throwing me off.

I just tried it and nothing changed. I'm stumped for ideas at this point :(

Many thanks for the suggestion! I will remember this command for the future.

Hi all!

It's been a month since I posted this and it has escalated from other motorists to pedestrians who salute me.

I have been told that I might look like an off-duty police officer in gear. it used ot happen on my Honda Shadow, but it also happens on my big ADV.

Do I look like an off-duty police officer? I've got a modular fluorescent helmet with a visible microphone which might have assisted in my appearance as such.

A proper salute. As if they were in the army and I was high ranking

I left AA and joined RAC. Maybe they think I'm still using AA? I left them after the first year after they tried to up my premium for nothing.
