    Awesome, trees are looking good :) When you say improved performance do you mean increased FPS?

    the trees look very good on that picture, they also look like FPS killers though. Maybe it's early for that but I would like to see the game in low settings.

    It could be that or loading the trees.
    But which one is it? :)

    Doesn't look like it to me, they actually look really simple.
    Notice how many trees are in the picture, the FPS is probably just a little lower than with no trees.
    I think the trees are about 200 polys, whereas the cars are about 10k (don't quote me on this though)

    yes, that's possible. i noticed now in full res that the leaves are simpler than they look, thanks to normal maps, which is very good.

    Maybe an option to remove the rear shock absorbers? That way, every time you hit the brakes the rear end starts bouncing off the ground.

    Tress are between 500-2000 polys, and cars are around 60k polys.

    Can you even remove the control rods?

    This is kind of off topic but: will there be 4 wheel steering? I mean, it shouldn't be too hard right? You could put it in the SBR4 or something.

    4 wheel steering would be easily possible, probably possible as an addon as well if that's what you mean.

    When you said addon, I instantly though of doing it as one of the parts.

    Gabester :D
    please, in the next livestream, show handling of a car with and without 4 wheel steering ;)

    Only LJFHutch can do that :p

    Amen.
    [joke] I suggest bringing it down, I mean people are going to get scared when they crash into a tree (while using the Rift)! It's dangerous! You could give someone a Heart Attack! [/joke]

    Gabe has mentioned that he keeps his cars in the 30-60k tri area and the trees are likely no more than 800 or so tris at the most.
