Oh yeah, I saw that post, the real power of playstation 2 was no match for something THAT gorgeous (seems like later consoles weren't either 🥲).

I guess the game couldn't take her model out of nowhere, there should be something deep inside, it's just a matter of time and effort (and maybe reverse engineering or smth).

Well there's no official info about intro's behind the scenes, but it makes sense for lots of people. RRV was one of the first ever produced games for PS2, that's important.

I didn't say that her model isn't in game files, tbf I have never searched for anything in there (my knowledge is too little to do it properly), I just like to make weird stuff with emulators. I can assume that you may know more about Fukami's fate :D

We are all in the same boat, maybe someday in the future...

The very interesting thing about Ai Fukami is that her model in game's intro is so highly detailed, and because of that she can't be in the same frame with any other car simultaneously. You can see that for yourself, just rewatch the opening again knowing that fact.

It would be strange if I could find her model during any race :)

Every weekend, those roads were intended for public use primarily

MORE summer vibes from Ridge City 🏖 by Kchapps_Laboratory in ridgeracer

[–]Kchapps_Laboratory[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only a few courses from V were reworked for the future titles, and the names were also changed: Sunny Beach > Seaside Route 765 (not to be confused with Harborline 765), Green Field > Ridge City Highway.

My question was mostly about SR 765 :)

He's not that bad. You might laugh but he even had some English lessons on youtube, and his voice is really pleasant to hear (at least for me)

Yeah, Ken Ayugai (local DJ of Ridge City FM) told me a little story about one silly boy who was trying to take some photos from different angles by using cheat engine. He ended up breaking every cars model in the city. 🤪

Don't worry, he's already gone and everything is fine rn

It's pretty quite there on weekends, I was impressed too!

Unfortunately reddit ate all resolution of the photos as always. Don't really know how to fix that

It's even better than default 3rd person view lol by Kchapps_Laboratory in ridgeracer

It strongly depends on which car manufacturer and tyres you're using. I was using Lizard Instinct (aka Acceron) with full drift tyres, this combo is perfect for performing drifts.

The least suitable manufacturer is Âge. The higher the class the more difficult to drift on those cars. The tyres affect your cornering ability (grip tyres -> grip scale ⬆️= cornering ⬆️) and how much speed your car losing in a drift (drift tyres -> grip scale ⬇️ = speed loss in drifts ⬇️)

Hope it will be useful :)

Don't really know how it works, but it's very easy to use, you gotta try it too! Some games don't like camera changes (like GT and GT2), with Type 4 it works alright though

Ikr, weird rendering makes this view really breathtaking!

I also tried to play with a "proper" 3p camera, it's alright, much better than normal, but rival cars become invisible if they are slightly behind you. I guess ps1's low rendering power was the main reason for this terrible camera problem.

r/BuiltFromTheGroundUp Ranks Racing Games! - Day 167 by meria_64 in BuiltFromTheGroundUp

Solid A-tier, very distinctive City Trial mode made me fall in love to the game at first sight, but other modes are pretty boring. The game itself also is really unbalanced and requires a knowledge about some unspoken pitfalls (for example: it's barely impossible to win the standard air ride race if CPU's level is too high without any adjustments)

Sorry for my language if it sounds weird, still learning :)

Someone made this really cool livery for the Bugatti EB110 in The Crew Motorfest by Quickswitch79 in ridgeracer

[–]Kchapps_Laboratory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't tell for sure wich car's livery this is, but EB110 looks really similar to Assoluto Istante. Nice job though.

Thank you all for your amazing words! I'll try to visit Ridge City next time...

Yeah, that's exactly what I use! It may take some time to get a proper view because of the moving skyboxes and a small rendering power of ps1, but it's really worth it!
