Hi, I'm new on Driver Madness and today I find some interesing thing:
In a mission "Wheelman" after tune up Slink car I went to the first marker. A Slink guy had weird gun (its look like the gangster weapon from '06 but its quite different). Its not an any of TK's weapons.
Sorry but a can't take screenshot and sorry for my English.

Hello and welcome to Driver Madness.
I achually haven't studied this, but I've always thought they were speed cameras referred to speed guns within the game. Once I've finished the work I'm doing at the moment I'll go back to that mission and post a picture.

Thanks for the repiles!
Its must be speed gun, well after I killed this guy (cheats :( ) the green weapon (like other weapons) will appear but I cant't pick it up
A little OT: most of the weapons in DPL from the PC and PS2 is totally different! Just look on some youtube videos. And music too. I cant understand this...

Well, DPL for PC has been released more than a year after DPL for PS2 ! And in 1978, in the beta version of DPL, cops had guns like Tanner's standard gun in Driv3r, and not Revolvers.

Speed guns would be cool in this game. It would be tough to take your own speed. :mrgreen: Smilies are awesome.

I think if you look on the back of the PC or Wii verson of the game, you see the '78 cop car with the beta '06 lightbar and a 2006 era looking gun, and I think the cops might have it too.

Well I think they took elements out of driv3r to test their engine, before they started building New York, TK and his weapons for Driver: Parallel Lines.

I bet that's why, a lot of game screenshots seem to be from the pre-release beta too. If you looked at an early, early shot of NFS: Pro Street there was a black Mazda RX-7 on the website and on the back of that game, the same RX-7 is there.

So … ? Isn't it in the game too ?

I've don't have that from the back on the game box, but I've seen that on screenshots.

Usually there's differences in the full verson from the beta, so the car might look different, or you can't get it's vinyls, etc.

i think it is the gangster but there just pointing them at you hey maybe madness could you try to mod it and make it were you can pick it up maybe you could do it like this find and copy the thing that lets you pick it up and paste it into the that gun and find out what it is.

I'm not sure what _ is asking for?
But I'm pretty sure it's not possible.
Once schools finished I have to re-familiarize myself with modding Driver: Parallel Lines.

Could someone rephrase that at all?

"I think that it's a Gangster, but they are just pointing them at you. Hey madness, maybe you could try to make a mod where you can pick it up. Maybe you could do like this: Find and copy the thing that let you pick it put and replace with another gun to find out what is it."
Sorry, I've tried to do my best... :wink:

I won't have enough time to do this anymore :(
Maybe I might get a chance, who knows.

Still hard to understand :? .
How about I keep it simple.
"copy the thing that let you pick it put and replace with another gun to find out what is it."
From what I remember you cannot access any variables for anything except vehicle stage packs. Therefore your unable to modify the way weapons work.
