Local Motors

[Marian87]

Hey guys, any of you are also members of local motors http://forge.local-motors.com ?
It's the site that drives the Local Motors company. You may have seen their creations somewhere, the Rally Fighter or the XC2V

Anyway the site is for all the range of car nuts, both amateur and professionals and they have organized design competitions from time to time.
I think it's a good place to make your game known and as such I started a thread about it over there.

Maybe if the reaction is very positive you could colaborate in some way.

Local Motors and Automation coloboration = Win.

Yeah but there's not much activity on this....where are the people?

Shoulda put some proper tyres on that Fighter, those Wranglers are naff.

Well, apparently no one I know in this forum seems to be members of Local motors. Anyway, the Rally fighter looks absolutely carnivorous. Although, it would have been nice if those wrangler tires were replaced with a bit more thick ones preferably the ones which are used for Hummer.

I don't see anything wrong with those tires. The car was designed with offroad desert racing in mind and the tires are suited for that. It may be that some owners chose to have it lowered and have big rimmed wheels, but I haven't seen pictures of one yet.

I'm a member of Local Motors... In fact I found out about this game over there I'm also a gamer so I'm excited to see where this goes. The site is a bit quiet now are they are kind of between projects.

Glad to hear that someone actually read that post
It is indeed a rather busy time for them, maybe when automation will have a working demo there will be more interest.

Some months ago I made a really low poly Rally Fighter.
