Car Discussion Thread - Back to the Future: Hill Valley mod for Grand Theft Auto: Vice City

Anything you want to say about the cars say it here. Questions, comments, and suggestions are welcome.

In 2015, vehicles will drive on an invisible highway, right? But is it possible to make them hover, like in DeLorean mod, phil made hover above the ground in about 2 meters. What do you think? Or have you already came up with this?

Do you have Biff´s Ford?

It would be cool if when in 2015 you "borrow" a car it is able to hover since that is the standard in technology, I doubt they could actually fly though as the planes have already been used for the DeLorean and train. Maybe they will hover up to a certain speed like the DeLorean and train do, perhaps the minimum hover speed could be increased for 2015 vehicles to create the illusion of flying.

To protonkid: Yes they will be driving on an invisible highway. I am not sure about the hovering though. I believe that it's only with the Delorean's and the Train cause they both use different models. You'd have to ask Delorean88 about that.

To Nokiaman: I do have a picture of Biff's Ford but no model yet. I'm dealing with a Virus problem at the moment so I'm not making any progress till that's taken care of.

To MovieDude1981: Yes it would be cool if they did hover but I don't handle that, like I told protonkid Delorean88 may be able to answer that. They won't fly, but since Nightshade is doing the mapping he may could include an invisible ramp so you may access the skyway. You should ask him about possibly including something like that.

of coarse there will be a ramp to access the skyway. how else will your car get up there? unless you're using the train or delorean.

I have model of Biff´s ford.

Edited by: KITT

no you don't. Biff's is a 46' ford. not a 48'.

Sorry for mistake.

its ok. ive seen that model before. it isnt a very good model anyway. biffs car will have to be scratch made.

Phil made something about the weight... Those things were hovering above the vehicles and couldn't land. I remember I even replaced the delorean with JVT's hovercar.

I haven't seen Phil's thing before but I have seen some hovering car mods, All they really do is remove the wheels so the cars appear to be floating.
It's really only the handling file so you could replace the Delorean with any car and it should work.

remove the wheels, add the hovering cowls over the wheel wells so that it doesn't look weird.

That could be it!

Yeah adding those hovering cowls would make the cars look much better.

sweet!!! the car is coming along nicely. cant wait for finished version.

Could you make a bike for 1885, a horse? And a wagon. Different recolors could be like horse's color. And who cares about animation? They really work! That's the most important thing.

we're thinking about it. it's a possibility. we won't say yes or no just yet.

(haha. i just said the same thing 3 different ways)

Just thought, radio stations in1885 isn't a problem, but an mp3 player in a horse is really weird.

there will be no radio in 1885 nor will there be an mp3 station at all

Well actually the only thing in 1885 that would have the MP3 player would be the Delorean. If you can I'd say just leave it in for the Delorean only but nothing else. Just in case after the game someone decides to go back and drive the Delorean around the town and they want some music.

it cant be put in.

after separating the stations for the different years, the mp3 station can't be used

Its nice to know that you got the 9 stations from VC to go down to three for each year (1955/1985 plus A/2015)

Now that I know thats done, I guess I'll officially start working on one of the 1955 stations.

Oh well, guess I'll have to go looking for that winamp thing I saw a long time ago. I find it really interesting that you've taken all the stations they have and reduced them to just three.
