Second pic bumper damage discussion

[Knutselmaaster]

So, we have all seen in the second puzzle pic that the bumper of one of the cars is hanging down, damaged.
(edit: now the pic is completed we see a lot of damage to the car)
To keep the discussion separated i started this topic to discuss (speculate).



I think that there will be no car collisions and that physics won't change, it will be purely cosmetic.
TM has always been about equal chances for all players, and car collisions and changing physics don't fit in there.
I got no proof at all for this, it's just my thought.

I totally agree with you.
And you can see that the side over the back well is deformed too.

Yes, that's exactly what I think too.

A damage type that will change the driving wouldn't fit to TrackMania. Except of course if you can switch it on or of. But I don't think this will be there.

As long as the damages won't affect the car's physics like in the old versions of TMO, its perfectly ok to me

[Alexony]

I think the damage is just like the very first TrackMania, just visual damage.

[megaplayer]

yes, i even miss opening cardoors when turning xD

imho MainbodyDamaged.Gbx in model pack .. or so.

[Mandark]

I think this is how is the car painted. In united we can see that the Desert cars are dirty. Or maybe visual damage like driving on dirt on stadium

Crazydriver: if you haven't noticed, the back is hangin down, it's not just dirty, the 3dmodell has changed. like this one : just... smaller

I haven't news from Hylis about the collisions but I hope we can set up this option to the game settings or in the Mania Script...
