Driver Madness

Guys, I wonder if someone of you could make normal cars on DSF explode. I have seen a video with someone that made the dodge challenger explode, but he didn't put it in download. Maybe we can do a mod like that?

It was done on the mac version. Anyway he never had the intention to put the modified files to download. At least it would have allowed us to understand how he did it. From what he said in the video, he retrieved explosion data from unlicensed vehicles.

Lol skylabh, you don't remember that screenshare CL69 did on Skype?

Yes i remember it, but at the time of the video from who you know, and like i said, he never had the intention to explain how he did. But now things have changed lol.

It's funny how you can mangle the cars, yet having them explode is 2much4them

Licensing agreement(s). You can't really "mangle" them either. Doors can't fall off and roofs can't be damaged at all.

Apparently vehicle manufacturing companies become offended when they see their vehicles get virtually damaged. It's ridiculous, are they afraid of realism?

It's pretty obvious. It'll damage their reputation and make their vehicles look bad.

Then they're a bunch of paranoid idiots. I mean it's basic science, anything can be completely torn to bits.

What are you talking about? It's not that they're paranoid, it's that they don't want their cars to be blown to bits. Why do you think they made up the ASYM's for those specific scenes?

what about Midnight Club and LA Noire? Also Need For Speed

I don't remember for all the MC games, personally, but I know for sure in LA Noire or Need For Speed, you can't competely f**k up the cars to a point where they would blow up. In a lot of Need for Speed games especially the damage is VERY simplistic and minor.

Midnight Club up until 3 - no licensed vehicles (unless you count the two Zender Fact 4 concepts in MCSR)
3 and LA - doors can't fall off, no roof damage, vehicles don't explode, although you can total them by crashing into gas pumps.
NFS, scratches and cracked windows up until Pro Street, then cars had actual dents and bumpers falling off. Still no doors falling off or roofs being caved in. HP2010, The Run, MW2012 and Rivals have no detaching panels whatsoever.
LA Noire - doors can fall off, but no roofs being caved in. Doors can fall off due to the fact every car in the game is either from a defunct manufacturer or is a model the manufacturer doesn't make anymore/have trademarked.

Guys, i think we can simply extract the explosion files from unlicensed cars with using the lua decompiler program thingy...

no.
CL69/Mark already did it and it isn't anything like that.

Well, I was going through folders and saw a file with name Explosion or something like that

It's very easy to change a bit of Lua code to make the cars explode. I would release an "Explosion Mod" but I'm afraid I don't have the time these days. The tool I used is floating around here, maybe someone else can make one?

Uh, you made one, remember? Or are you playing dumb and pretending that you never modded DSF because you're afraid Ubisoft will send you a C&D if you disclose anything?
EDIT:nvm now I remember.

...There ain't still any explosion mods?

Reading isn't your strong suit apparently, refer to the post above yours. It should be common sense as to why such a mod hasn't been released.

I think that the explosion mod exploded from himself

If am in his place I will release it under a couple of profiles and let them send a C&D to the moon

Just make sure you use proxies and VPN's.
