*viKKing* Posted Dec 10, 2006, 10:29 pm	People, I'm sure many of you have screenshots that could be shared with others. I'm looking for race screenshots as well as a short story to publish for next issue of Darkwind Chronicles Newspaper. Let brings some stuff out!
*sam* Posted Dec 10, 2006, 10:32 pm	I'll second that! Don't forget, you can use CTRL-P to take screenshots.
*Toecutter* Posted Dec 10, 2006, 10:37 pm	how about an issue of just some of our fav screenshots..not a story, just some of our best photos...maybe you can select a few for your next art issue ^^
JoeR Posted Dec 10, 2006, 11:37 pm	take THIS cowboy!
*Toecutter* Posted Dec 10, 2006, 11:46 pm	LOL nice shot...piggy back rides for everyone!
*sam* Posted Dec 11, 2006, 12:30 am	Hmm.. midnight cowboy springs to mind
*Toecutter* Posted Dec 12, 2006, 3:28 am	The first aren't very newsworthy but I do like the look  This next one however..Ralphy proves that with enough thrust u can make an Alpha fly
Jim Posted Dec 12, 2006, 9:59 am	haha! a gifted driver..
Jim Posted Dec 12, 2006, 10:02 am	those screenshots gave me an idea for a new feature, how about turbo boost like the old knight rider tv series! (launching your car up and forward into the air) (speaking of which there's a cool car to add to dark-wind! http://www.turbosquid.com/FullPreview/Index.cfm/ID/239218 ) oh and nitros
*sam* Posted Dec 12, 2006, 10:14 am	Nice car jim.. that's never 203 polygons though surely? Yeah.. turbos and nitros, could be added as rear mounted 'weapons' TC: was that Da Beast in action? Did it even make it up the hill with all that grade C armour?
Jim Posted Dec 12, 2006, 10:16 am	email him to find out?
*Toecutter* Posted Dec 12, 2006, 5:14 pm	Well that was Da Beast when it had A grade and that 5LV8 (which blew up and killed my driver ) it's gonna be my tank instead (as soon as i can afford to arm it )
JoeR Posted Dec 12, 2006, 6:41 pm	bah, no nitro. or, nitro in missions only. it should be banned in racing events.
Kruskal Posted Dec 12, 2006, 8:17 pm	I think nitro should be availiable, but expensive and likely to destroy your engine. Possibly causing engine damage on every use, with possible malfunctions. Or maybe some rocket boost which gives you a big spped boost but means that you can't slow down. Both of these would be really useful, but incredibly risky and needing lots of skill to use effectively.
*Toecutter* Posted Dec 13, 2006, 6:53 am	sam said: TC: was that Da Beast in action? Did it even make it up the hill with all that grade C armour?  sure, all laugh at the 3675lbs Buccy with a 2L engine  League Time Trial X Final Standing: 1st Ida Butler (Toecutters) (55.29 secs) <----Da Beast 2nd John Isaacson (Western Wreckers) (56 secs) 3rd Tammy Robinson (Dirge) (56.27 secs) 4th Thomas Macleod (The Fighting Celts) (56.74 secs) 5th Maria Lehmann (Steam Army) (57.34 secs) 6th Rod Prioleau (Sarsfield Grenadiers) (59.11 secs) 7th Hollis Ortega (Battlefield Crew) (59.79 secs) 8th William Kemp (Deathrace Photographers Union) (59.93 secs)
*sam* Posted Dec 13, 2006, 9:16 am	Joer- The other idea I had for nitros is that their angle of discharge is unpredictable, so they'll probably lift up your rear end and possibly spin you around slightly.
