Dodge Viper

[PG_Raptor]

Hey all!  I was flying around Interlaken in FS2004, and noticed a lot of roads on the mountains.  I was thinking how great it would be to drive a Viper on those roads!  Will anyone be willing to make a Dodge Viper R/T-10 to go roaring through the mountains of FS2004 in? That would be great!

I would think a game like "Test Drive" or "Grand Theft Auto" would have what you're looking for.

Why not take a P-51 Mustang on those roads, and fly the turns at an altitude of abotu 15 feet?

Or 15 inches if you're me

Yeah, I figured someone would say something like that.  I used to have a Hummer for CFS1, and I always had a blast with it (climbing moutains and such).  And well, the roads are there in FS2004, why not use them?  ;D

[ozzy72]

I do use roads, either for navigation or emergency airfields

Yeah, i know how that goes.  So I take it no one is interested in making a Viper? That's too bad, it would be fun  :'(

i am currently (slowly) working on a Ferrari F40. . .there are also some Mercedies and such in the works. . .and there is a jaguar and a couple other cars already out. . .haven't heard of anyone on a viper project though

Yeah, I saw the Jaguar, I tried to download it, but it said the file was unavaliable?

Thats too bad about the Viper though, I hope someon sees this and decides to try it.  :(

Where can you download these vehicles I think it would be cool.  Where was it that you tried to download that Jaguar

ooh i just though of somethin, how about a F-1 race car, and it comes with monaco scenery with the course.if not monaco then monza. i just want to drive all over the place really really fast!

The main issue with cars in FS is that they 'slide' when turning.  This is due to the fact that you can't add power to the drivetrain; it has to come from a jet or piston engine.  So instead of a car with wheels that add power, you get an aircraft with no wings.

I've been attempting to create an airfile for Katahu's new Mercedes, but I don't want to put out something that doesn't work right.  I've tried so many variations that I can't remember what I have tried and haven't, but I've come to the conclusion that until M$ makes powered wheels available in FS, creating cars will just be an exercise in modelling.
