My bad UE4 cars

[zeussy]

We know about the current random crash issue. The issue is deep in UE4 that we have been working with Epic trying to solve it for the last 2 months.

The main issue with this crash is we cannot replicate it in house. Some people get afflicted by it really badly. Others never see it (unfortunately like us). From that data I have gathered, it seems to affect about 3% of Play Sessions.

Back in Early November, I did send out an email to all people who had bug reported it and provided an email address in the Bug report. Thanking them for reporting the issue, and explaining that we are working on it.

In the UE4 Open Beta Discussion Thread had also several back and forths with @Radializer who also gets this issue, building a specific version to try and log and pin point the issue.

I am working on the issue, I am also working on the rest of the game as well. And try to progress with the issue as we get more data on it.

Thank you and sorry Zeussy.

Sorry, double post again, but if I just edited the post I don’t think the thread would bump. Correct me if I’m wrong.

1998 Toro Avventato 612-S

All you need to know is that it has a 6 liter 575 hp V12, 6 speed manual, and RWD.
It does 0-60 in 3.2 seconds and tops out at 223 mph.

[Knightophonix]

Neat perfs. My hypercar entry for the competition only reaches 218mph with 850hp. Then again it’s probably more track focused.

[squidhead]

@SideswipeBL

6 liter 575 hp V12

Why did you choke it? Hypercars don’t care about fuel consumption

[SideswipeBL]

It’s has SOHC so that’s all I can get from it. No idea why, but 575 hp seems to be more than enough
Nevermind, just checked, it’s DOHC. Regardless, I can only squeeze out 575 before it knocks.

@SideswipeBL

6 liter 575 hp V12, 6 speed manual, and RWD

20 years ago, such power outputs would have been very competitive indeed… Today, it feels like a purist’s wet dream.

Edit: the specific output is actually quite high for its time.

[squidhead]

Strange. I’m certain you can get more than 100hp of specific output from that engine

[Knightophonix]

when you say “can’t get any more power before it knocks”, does that mean “mix at the richest setting right before it loses power again, ignition timing at 100, cam profile at 100, long tubular exhaust headers, performance intake with ITB, and max up the compression until it explodes”? If not, you can still add power.

But hey.

To compare this to the real world, the first gen Lamborghini Murcielago made 580hp out of a 6.2L V12 and that was in 2001, not 1998 so eh.

1990 Ronin Ryujin

Kept you waiting, huh?

The Ryujin always tried to be different, from its leftmost taillight acting like a gas cap to its quad vertical exhaust pipes. Its most unique quirk was its knack for breaking down.

Hey, a new car! Instead of stats, have some ads!

Trims:

The low-end GT, costing $18,854, gives you a 3 liter NA V6 in the front with a mere 255 HP, solid disc brakes, a standard interior, and rear wheel drive. Nothing too crazy. 0-60 comes in at 5.7 seconds, and it gets almost 20 MPG. Its top speed is 157 MPH.

The next trim, the GTS, costing $20,993, gets a few extra bits and bobs to make it look cooler, variable hydraulic steering instead of just hydraulic, sportier suspension, and a premium interior and cassette player. The car’s performance suffers, though, and despite its sportier looks, the added weight from all those cool bits and bobs increases the 0-60 sprint from 5.7 seconds to a frankly sluggish 5.9. The car’s top speed also decreases to 155 MPH, although it’s not a very noticeable difference.

The final trim, the Midnight Turbo, at $22,816, gets an… interesting new face, with huge fog-lights, and most importantly, twin turbos! The same 3 liter V6 now has two 45 millimeter turbos bolted on the sides, with the car now pushing out an insane 325 horses. To handle that bump in power, the car is now all wheel drive, and has vented brakes coupled with distinct turbofan wheels to help cool them. The 0-60 sprint now only takes 5 seconds flat, but its top speed stays at 156.

[SideswipeBL]

Damn, alright. Such silence. Here are some more cars. (image dump warning)

Ronin Midnight Turbo Vision GT (2019)

Homage to the older Ryujin Midnight Turbos, based on the facelift 2019 Ryujin. 942 horsepower twin-turbo 5.5 liter V10 from the Nakamura SI-7, tuned by Nitrex. RWD.
Absolutely uncontrollable.

Ronin Ryujin GTR (2019)

More controllable version of the VGT with creature comforts like AWD and electronic assists. Same amount of power, same engine.
PS - the door handles are under the door vent’s upper edge.

Ronin Ryujin GTL (2019)

Top end trim of the Ryujin. Same V10, but detuned to 822 hp. Luxury interior and AWD of course.

Toro Avventato GTO (1970)

Predecessor to the Toro Avventato V12. Handles very well and turns in quickly, but has a tendency to spin out if you push it. Proper racecar style. There’s also more trims of it (GT, GT Lusso, GTS, and GTS Lusso.) The GTO gets the most power - 300 horses, to be exact. The rest make somewhere below that.

Ronin Fujin GT Turbo (1995)

Forgot the details on this one, but I think it’s got somewhere around 350 hp and AWD. Can’t remember if it was a V6 or a V8, and I’m too lazy to check, but it’s evidently turbocharged.

Ronin Fujin SR (2018)

“Regular” sedan with 400hp boxer-4 developed by Nitrex and AWD.

Turbina Citro TS (2018)

3 cylinders and 1.5 liters of fury. 208 hp to the front wheels.

Turbina Torpedo CF-16 (halo car that nobody will buy) (2018)

Twin-turbo V16. That’s all I have to say. It’s obviously AWD.

Ronin Arcane GTS (2018)

My best handling car to date (in Beam). AWD, turbo straight-6, 300-ish hp?

Nitrex Deathadder Concept (2018)

V16 again, but this time naturally aspirated. 744 hp, AWD.

Walden Priam RC5 (1983)

Originally just a one-off for the Reddit rally challenge and subsequently ignored for no reason, I ended up liking this car so much that I’m thinking of expanding the Walden brand. Turbocharged 1.8 liter inline 5, 214 hp, AWD.

Nervenkitzel Cosmos SR (2018)

Totally not a Porsche. At all. Twin turbo 3.6 liter flat 6, 553 hp, AWD.

KRA Hyperion n40 (as in naturally aspirated 4.0 liter) (1994)

I don’t know why I made this car. 335 hp V8. RWD. German Mustang?

Toro Avventato V12 (1998, looks a little dated for 98 though…)

Facelifted the ugly Avventato to look a little more realistic. Still ugly. 575 hp 6 liter V12, RWD.

Toro Avventato V12 T (2001)

Some engineer at Toro had the bright idea of strapping two turbos to the V12 in the 2001 Avventato. This one is tracked out with twin diffusers, a sequential gearbox, and AWD. Handles surprisingly well. 611 hp, same engine size and configuration as the 98 Avventato except for the turbos.

There you go.
