chicken fried rice is super. anyway are we trying to make a ricer thats good looking(lol) or just a maxed out rice job, because i could see some cars turning out like the "ugly" cars in the showroom if u know what i mean, and thats just yuk. so are we to maintain some tastefullness?

That should answer your question, I think...

nice. another oldie. but there's a mistake in the rules...

Again, if you're running a stock hood, you gotta stick at least on decal on there too!

there are no hood decals in UG2 like they were in UG1. i'd just like to point that out...

I think 'someone' might have just copied and pasted the challenge info from the one of NFSU1....

Post by **TheStig** » 27 Mar 2005, 04:04

correct the rules are almost all a direct copy of the NFS U1 rules... and I have to say I did remove it... but there was a error in the time script so I had to make a new set of rules so forgot to change that...

so yes most is from the original rules... and some are new or have changed.

why change a good concept

I don't get one thing... if I make a good looking car with neons, bright colors, big audio, is that RICE? It's a bit silly to make a car that everyone will laugh at.

I mean, cars here are bad... I'll go see cars in the U1 challenge

Uhm...so which is it? A ridiculous looking car (to laugh at) or best looking car (vote on how it looks)? I doubt I can do both at the same time...

Personally, I've tried to make a good-looking car, but using all non-stock parts. I think it looks OK, but I guess it is still "rice rice, baby" to paraphrase Vanilla (R)Ice, 1980's/90's UK rapper. I guess the Admins will advise accordingly once they have examined the ride...

jemc · Post by **jemc** » 27 Mar 2005, 12:39

oh man, making a rice car is harder than i thought.

Dragster · Post by **Dragster** » 27 Mar 2005, 14:54

I'll give you a hint:
GREEN PEARLESCENT PAINT!!!

I choosed that paint, and stuff just kept on coming.
What troubles me is --> I wouldn't LAUGH at the car, it is way bling bling, but it looks nice

Post by **TheStig** » 27 Mar 2005, 15:38

well It took me some time to build the demo car... but IMO it turned out prity RICE..

Post by **Morty** » 27 Mar 2005, 15:51

As a ricer, I dunno whether I should laugh or cry... Just because you're making a rice car does NOT mean it has to be a car that looks bad. Keep the performance down, and focus on the exterior. That's ricing (or styling). And make it look good if you want to win...

Post by **TheStig** » 27 Mar 2005, 16:12

I changed a small thing in the rules,

I forgot you could ofcourse add nitrous purge... (a dummy nitrous ofcours... we don't want to make it a fast car

and a other thing...... not a rule but a hint.....

show that your car is slooooooooooooooow.....

for instance make a list of max speed... power 0-60(100)
etc... to show you are a real! RICER... and you still don't know what speed is...

and showing that your car can do 0=60 MPH in 2.5 seconds does not qualify you as a RICER... even if you spray your car with loads of scoops neons etc.... it makes you a racer with a discusting taste

....
and don't forget the Photoshop rules are more strickt!

Supra-man · Post by **Supra-man** » 27 Mar 2005, 18:32

so does this mean that we can use nos and are you suppose to create a car that is rice but looks nice or a car that is rice but doesnt look nice cuz it kinda says to do both in the rules.

Post by **TheStig** » 27 Mar 2005, 18:47

yes it means you may install Nitro so if you want you can shoot a picture with nitropurge... that is all... so it is pure visual

and well just make a Riced out car... some find it good looking some find it Awfull looking

we don't deside who will win you do...

to make it simple maka a GOOD riced out car... (good does not mean beautifull or ugly

)

Sir Ibi · Post by **Sir Ibi** » 27 Mar 2005, 18:49

well i did put nitros bottles, with out actually having any nitros installed on the car, does that qualify for a riced car.....

Post by **TheStig** » 27 Mar 2005, 18:51

me thinks so...

Dragster · Post by **Dragster** » 27 Mar 2005, 18:56

Eh CRAP. I uploaded the car, just realized it doesn't have a roofscoop! Is that ok?

Post by **TheStig** » 27 Mar 2005, 19:06

nope not directly.. it didn't say YOU have to put every bodypart on it... but you have to max it out... like a ricer should

but A good non functioning roofscoop is advised

DarrenR21373 · Post by **DarrenR21373** » 27 Mar 2005, 22:16

Hmm, I did another Ricer trick, without realising: I put a Nitro manufacturer's decal on my ride when it has no nitrous

I guess I am just a Ricer at heart...
