KyLiE: /* Colour_preferences */ +KyLiE

An unmodified version of Stunts offers eleven car colours to the racers, seven of them being available for each car. Given that there are eleven original [[:Category:Cars|cars]], one might suppose there is an one-to-one relation between cars and default colours, but that is not the case - for instance, four of the eleven original cars default to blue. As creating [[custom cars]] with modified graphics became possible, new colours were added to the canonical set. Popular novelties include black (default colour of [[Speedgate]]) and British Racing Green (default colour of the [[Lotus Esprit]]).

== Colour preferences ==

Some racers are known for racing almost exclusively with cars of an specific colour. Below are listed some of the better known such cases. Note that these preferences often span a small range of similar colours (e.g. in this context "violet" almost always implies "lilac or violet").

'''DOSReloaded.de''' is a German-speaking community forum dedicated to DOS games. The forum covers a great spectrum of topics including the games themselves, but also old hardware and all sorts of discussion. It's home page is located at https://dosreloaded.de/forum/core/.

== Stunts tournament ==
''DOSReloaded'' gained considerable attention from the online Stunts community in January 2023, when some of our members decided to join the foreign forum to participate in an ongoing Stunts competition happening in the site. Although the tournament had been running since early 2019, it was at this point when real interaction first occurred between the communities.

Their tournament is managed by posting directly on the forum and they don't perform actual verification of replays, but rely on trust by simply sharing a screenshot. This fact and the participation of a particular racer called [[Mooh]] who appeared to always win with great difference (suggesting potential cheating, and with ease, thanks to the lack of verification) prompted some racers to try and show our way of verification to them. The result was that the forum people felt invaded and that their ways were not being respected and reacted negatively. Our racers decided to withdraw and excuse themselves for the sake of peace.

The '''Dodge Viper''' is a [[Custom cars|custom car]] created by [[Ryoma]]. Like the real car, it only reaches its top speed in 5th gear. 6th gear is only used for highway cruising to reduce fuel consumption. Because of this, 6th gear cannot be reached with an automatic transmission. The Viper in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Need_for_Speed The Need for Speed] also behaves this way.

realtop = 219 mph
}}

The powerful '''McLaren Honda MP4/4''' was the first F1 car made for Stunts and was released on September 3rd 2011. It is from the epic 1988 Formula 1 season.

== Development ==

This car was naturally based on the [[Porsche March Indy]] to speed up the 3D modelling process. It has two color schemes, but they only differ for the helmet to represent Senna and Prost's racing helmet.

The dashboard was made using some bits of the Porsche's dash, but most of it was designed from some rare photos taken of the real car that were found on the internet.

This car features a digital bar rev counter, a design first in Stunts. Although it was just a trick that uses the analog rev counter needle in a linear coordinate movement, it works accurately but shows some flickering caused by the steering wheel dot rendering that happens just below it.

For version 1.1 of the car, some changes were made to the dashboard around the side mirrors in order to move the transparent zone up. This change was made mainly to fix the presentation of the in-game replay controls.

== Performance ==

The performance specifications were adapted from the information found on the now extinct [http://web.archive.org/web/20110901221653/http://www.f1db.com/tiki-index.php F1DB.com] site (among others in that period) and a PDF document that [[Zapper]] surprisingly found with an official engine performance report.

In-game, it performs greatly and is the fastest 0-60 MPH runner (against official cars). It's light weight, grips more and brakes better than its main "original" in-game rival, the [[Porsche March Indy]], but has a lower top speed.

The '''Pontiac Firebird Turbo T/A - KITT Version''' is a [[cheated cars|custom car]] by [[Zapper]].

== Development ==

The creation of this car started back in 2011.

Although most of the 3rd generation Pontiac Firebird Trans Ams that appeared in the [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0083437/ Knight Rider TV series] between 1982 and 1985 were powered by a 5.7L V8, in the Stunts era it was more appropriate to use the 1989 Pontiac Firebird Turbo Trans Am 20th Anniversary version with its 3.8L V6 turbo engine as a base car for the project. It was also one of the fastest 3rd generation models through the production years.

Since this was a KITT version, performance tuning had to accomplish (as much as possible) special features like better grip, more braking capacity and the inclusion of "Pursuit mode".

The 3D modelling was done with Anim8or and [[Stressed]] using the Corvette as a base and [http://getoutlines.com/blueprints/10112/1982-pontiac-firebird-knight-rider-kitt-coupe-blueprints KITT blueprints] as a reference. The two paint jobs included are the normal black KITT and a black/grey KARR color scheme. The dashboard was made from scratch using several pictures from the show found in a [http://knightrideronline.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=127993 forum post].

Dashboard development phases:
[[File:KITT dashboard dev.gif|center|Dashboard development phases]]

It features a functional digital speedometer and a simulated bar-type tachometer up to 5250 RPM (real redline), although it has a visible scale up to 9000 RPM. The release of version 1.1 introduced an automatic console appearance (left labels) adapted to manual (right labels).

== Performance ==

Performance figures were based on detailed information in The GTA Source Page car review [http://www.gtasourcepage.com/8920thTACDReview.html article]. The "Pursuit mode" is only triggered when using a manual transmission, leaving the automatic transmission for normal/real base model acceleration figures. To activate "Pursuit mode", it is necessary to keep accelerating in the same gear above the "normal" redline (5250 RPM), e.g. accelerating in 1st gear over 50 MPH in order to get high revving torque values. With its power rating up to 3000 HP at 11000 RPM (measured by [[CarEdit3]]), the top speed of 245 MPH is quickly achieved. The trade-off for this great acceleration is the resulting poor handling mainly caused by the car's weight.

}}

The '''Ferrari F40''' is a [[cheated cars|custom car]] designed by [[Zapper]].

== Development ==

The creation of this model rectifies a remarkable Stunts omission by bringing the iconic late 80s supercar to the game that was only present in the [[:File:Stunts_Replay_Interface.png|replay interface]].

The 3D model was made from scratch using Anim8or and some blueprints, using all the vertices that can be rendered by the game's engine.

The dashboard was based on the F40 in the Amiga version of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Duel:_Test_Drive_II The Duel: Test Drive II] because of its 256 color palette and therefore, cosmetic changes were made to the clocks.

== Performance ==

With regards to the driving experience, the F40 fits within the chasm between the high-end sports cars and the [[IMSA]] race cars. Compared to the [[Ferrari GTO]], for instance, it is not only faster but also has noticeably better handling.

Starting from 2011, the F40 is one of the custom cars allowed in [[ZakStunts]].

}}
The very special '''Caterham Super Seven Jonathan Palmer Evolution''' from 1992 is a custom car that was projected to be part of Stunts to fit short and "twisted" tracks in the game.

This car is allowed to be used in the [[ZakStunts]] 2022 season.

== Development ==

The creation of this car was somehow difficult by the fact that this is a highly customized car in the real world and because of its rarity, only 50 examples were made.
Some compromises were taken in terms of color schemes and dashboard layout, mainly because there was no official brochure, but in the end, details like the original lime yellow background of the speedometer and rev counter, the small windshield with transparency and the right hand drive steering wheel, were reproduced.

On the 8th of April 2021, the car was released but was rapidly updated so a [http://forum.stunts.hu/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3720.0;attach=7284 1.1 version] was released the next day for speedometer and grip adjustment purposes.

On the 4th of November 2021, a version [http://forum.stunts.hu/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3720.0;attach=8608 1.1 mod 1.0] was made after the creation of a new custom [http://forum.stunts.hu/index.php?topic=3810.msg82262#msg82262 feature] that allows using custom colored needles for the speedometer and rev counter in Stunts, which improved the readability by changing the default white needles to black.

== Performance ==

The natural lightness of this car allows great 0-100 MPH times and at the same time, very effective braking. It's a characteristic which made the real world model brake the 0-100-0 MPH record when released in 1992 (relegating the [[Ferrari F40]]).

The base specification of this car uses a 5 speed "long ratio" gearbox like one of several options available for this model. This choice allows it to get a better top speed (~145 MPH) comparatively over a 6 speed "short ratio" gearbox (~125 MPH).

'''Note:''' This "feather weight" car is prone to "flying carpets" and "fast landings".

4D Sports Driving Car Editor / CarEdit3

2022-02-18T12:04:26Z

KyLiE:

'''4D Sports Driving Car Editor''' (also named '''CarEdit3''') is a graphical DOS program written in the Pascal programming language with the purpose of editing 4D Sports Driving / Stunts CAR*.RES files.

== Overview ==

The program allows the modification of car parameters (original and almost every custom car added to the game) separated into feature sections:

*Garage:
**List cars for handling RES files;
**Copy, rename or delete entire cars in a convenient way;
**Spare car management (using a configurable separate folder).

*Engine:
**Advanced power curve editing (single values or entire ranges);
**Adjust idle RPM, max RPM and gear shift RPM values.

*Gears:
**Number of gears and their ratios with equalizer function;
**RPM/velocity diagram with shifting scenarios;
**Dashboard gear console pattern coordinates.

*Misc:
**Car dimensions and collision parameters;
**Wheel coordinates with 3D shape coordinate calculation.

*Text:
**Automatic correction of length/offsets in RES files on save.

*GFX:
**Change movable dashboard elements on speedometer (analog/digital);
**Rev counter and wheel position coordinates.

== Development and features ==

This tiny program was developed by [[dm_s1e6]] and initially published on the [[Stunts Forum]] in 2014. Version 3 was the first to be released, although it was stated that this was still a "beta" version.

An older version of the program called CarEdit2 was created in the late 90s but was never published.

'''CarEdit3''' offers a simple way of editing car parameters that is superior to [[Car Blaster]] but retains the use of the keyboard for input control. It is characterized by intense flickering caused by a lack of optimization in the rendering routine. This is most noticeable while editing the power curve.

The program was later updated and released in 2021 by [[Zapper]] with permission from [[dm_s1e6]] who shared the program's source code for adding refinements and features.

Version 3.2 includes the following enhancements:
*Information that helps with the modification of parameters;
*More graphical elements displayed;
*Spare car management that supports all car [http://wiki.stunts.hu/index.php?title=Resource_file_format#File_names file name formats].

}}

The '''Toyota Sprinter Trueno''' is one of the first cars in the "Tuned For Real" saga by [[Zapper]].

== Development ==

The Toyota Sprinter Trueno or Corolla Coupé (code named "AE86") was made from scratch with the newly available [[Stressed]] tool at the time.

Initially intended to be a car with drift capabilities in Stunts, it turned out to be one of the slowest cars available along with the [[Toyota Corolla Gti]].

One of the color schemes includes a "panda" scheme like the one featured in the "Initial D" Japanese [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0385426/ anime] series and [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0439630/ film].

== Performance ==

Although pretty close to the performance of the real car in terms of engine and physics related aspects, its grip capabilities on dirt road are better than expected. After all, it's a car that has been in its beta release state since 2010.

The '''Toyota Corolla Gti''' is the first full model created by [[Zapper]].

== Development ==
This Toyota Corolla model (code named "AE92") was the first attempt to create a whole new car in mid 2010 after discovering the newly available [[Stressed]] tool. The car started out using the Acura NSX base files, but all was adapted to match the shape, dashboard and performance specifications inherent to the model.

The color schemes are consistent with those offered during the model era. Note that the car's speedometer is measured in km/h.

== Performance ==

The performance of the car in terms of the engine was adjusted to match its real performance specifications, but the physics related aspects were tuned in order to simulate the front wheel drive feeling.

In Stunts, the chase to replicate and simulate this car's humble capabilities made it one of the slowest cars available.

The '''Porsche 911 Turbo''' is a [[cheated cars|custom car]] designed by [[Zapper]].

== Development ==
Its first release was in 2002 as part of [[Zapper's car pack]], which included variants of the original Stunts cars tweaked solely for more accurate performance and dashboard speedometer/rev counter dials.

In 2011, the model was finally changed with a new custom 3D shape and dashboard graphics for the car with a new version release.

== Performance ==
The 911 Turbo was included on the grounds of being a version of the Porsche 964 like the [[Porsche Carrera 4]], only with a more powerful engine and rear wheel drive which translates to less grip than its related AWD model.

}}

The '''Pontiac Firebird Turbo T/A - KITT Version''' is a [[cheated cars|custom car]] by [[Zapper]].

== Development ==

The creation of this car started back in 2011.

Although most of the 3rd generation Pontiac Firebird Trans Ams that appeared in the [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0083437/ Knight Rider TV series] between 1982 and 1985 were powered by a 5.7L V8, in the Stunts era it was more appropriate to use the 1989 Pontiac Firebird Turbo Trans Am 20th Anniversary version with its 3.8L V6 turbo engine as a base car for the project. It was also one of the fastest 3rd generation models through the production years.

Since this was a KITT version, performance tuning had to accomplish (as much as possible) special features like better grip, more braking capacity and the inclusion of "Pursuit mode".

The 3D modelling was done with Anim8or and [[Stressed]] using the Corvette as a base and [http://getoutlines.com/blueprints/10112/1982-pontiac-firebird-knight-rider-kitt-coupe-blueprints KITT blueprints] as a reference. The two paint jobs included are the normal black KITT and a black/grey KARR color scheme. The dashboard was made from scratch using several pictures from the show found in a [http://knightrideronline.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=127993 forum post].

Dashboard development phases:
[[File:KITT dashboard dev.gif|center|Dashboard development phases]]

It features a functional digital speedometer and a simulated bar-type tachometer up to 5250 RPM (real redline), although it has a visible scale up to 9000 RPM. The release of version 1.1 introduced an automatic console appearance (left labels) adapted to manual (right labels).

== Performance ==

Performance figures were based on detailed information in The GTA Source Page car review [http://www.gtasourcepage.com/8920thTACDReview.html article]. The "Pursuit mode" is only triggered when using a manual transmission, leaving the automatic transmission for normal/real base model acceleration figures. To activate "Pursuit mode", it is necessary to keep accelerating in the same gear above the "normal" redline (5250 RPM), e.g. accelerating in 1st gear over 50 MPH in order to get high revving torque values. With its power rating up to 3000 HP at 11000 RPM (measured by CarEdit3), the top speed of 245 MPH is quickly achieved. The trade-off for this great acceleration is the resulting poor handling mainly caused by the car's weight.

}}

The powerful '''McLaren Honda MP4/4''' was the first F1 car made for Stunts and was released on September 3rd 2011. It is from the epic 1988 Formula 1 season.

== Development ==

This car was naturally based on the [[Porsche March Indy]] to speed up the 3D modelling process. It has two color schemes, but they only differ for the helmet to represent Senna and Prost's racing helmet.

The dashboard was made using some bits of the Porsche's dash, but most of it was designed from some rare photos taken of the real car that were found on the internet.

This car features a digital bar rev counter, a design first in Stunts. Although it was just a trick that uses the analog rev counter needle in a linear coordinate movement, it works accurately but shows some flickering caused by the steering wheel dot rendering that happens just below it.

== Performance ==

The performance specifications were adapted from the information found on the now extinct [http://web.archive.org/web/20110901221653/http://www.f1db.com/tiki-index.php F1DB.com] site (among others in that period) and a PDF document that [[Zapper]] surprisingly found with an official engine performance report.

In-game, it performs greatly and is the fastest 0-60 MPH runner (against official cars). It's light weight, grips more and brakes better than its main "original" in-game rival, the [[Porsche March Indy]], but has a lower top speed.

The '''Lotus Esprit Turbo SE''' is a [[cheated cars|custom car]] by [[Zapper]].

Starting from 2011, the Lotus is one of the custom cars allowed in [[ZakStunts]].

== Development ==

The 3D shape was made almost from scratch using blueprints and then edited with Anim8or and [[Stressed]].

The dashboard was based on the Lotus Esprit in the Amiga version of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Duel:_Test_Drive_II The Duel: Test Drive II] since it's composed in 256 colors.
It was further edited to match the woodgrain dashboard as seen in real photos of the specific 1989 model.

There are "British Racing Green" and "007 White" paint jobs, but unfortunately other aspects like amphibious features from the film are not included.

== Performance ==

In Stunts, the performance of the Lotus Esprit belongs to the niche of cars such as the [[Acura NSX]] and [[Nissan Skyline]], but it has the turbo "punch" that improves its 0-60 MPH time.

Within such a class, its main advantages are enjoyable handling and excellent ability to deal with adverse surface conditions.
It was fine tuned with help of the CarTest 4.5 simulation program.

}}

The '''Ferrari F40''' is a [[cheated cars|custom car]] designed by [[Zapper]].

== Development ==

The creation of this model rectifies a remarkable Stunts omission by bringing the iconic late 80s supercar to the game that was only present in the replay interface.

The 3D model was made from scratch using Anim8or and some blueprints, using all the vertices that can be rendered by the game's engine.

The dashboard was based on the F40 in the Amiga version of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Duel:_Test_Drive_II The Duel: Test Drive II] because of its 256 color palette and therefore, cosmetic changes were made to the clocks.

== Performance ==

With regards to the driving experience, the F40 fits within the chasm between the high-end sports cars and the [[IMSA]] race cars. Compared to the [[Ferrari GTO]], for instance, it is not only faster but also has noticeably better handling.

Starting from 2011, the F40 is one of the custom cars allowed in [[ZakStunts]].

Audi Quattro TDI

2022-02-17T15:15:10Z

KyLiE:

The '''Audi Quattro TDI''' is a model variant of the original [[Audi Quattro Sport]] in 4D Sports Driving / Stunts. It was made by [[Zapper]] and part of [[Zapper's car pack]] released in 2002.

=== Development ===

This Audi is a "pseudo" variant of the Quattro model that has the performance of a big V10 turbo diesel engine (like the one found in the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_Touareg Volkswagen Touareg]).

The dashboard was swapped with the Corvette's because of the 6000 RPM limit on the tachometer and to provide a 6-speed gear pattern.

All other aspects, including the 3D shape, remained the same as the original [[Audi Quattro Sport]].

Zapper's car pack

2022-02-17T14:34:08Z

KyLiE:

'''Zapper's car pack''' is based on all the original cars in 4D Sports Driving / Stunts. It was made by [[Zapper]] and released in 2002.

=== Overview ===

The cars contained in this pack have their filenames changed (the car filename codes start with "Z", e.g. "ZFGT" instead of "FGTO" for Ferrari GTO) in order to avoid file collisions with the original ones.
Also, each car has a defined "z" suffix for the in-game fastest time record table and the car descriptions state "Tuned For Real by ZAPPER".

All modifications were limited to only the car parameters which include:

*Torque curve;
*Idle, Max and Shifting RPM values;
*Max speed (adjusting mass);
*Gear ratios;
*Gear console pattern coordinates;
*Analog speedometer and rev counter needle coordinates;

and exclude the 3D shape and dashboard graphics.

These modifications were made using the [[Car Blaster]] program.

=== Cars ===

The car pack is formed with modified versions of all the original cars in the game but also contains two new cars:

*[[Audi Quattro TDI]] - A pseudo variant of the Quattro model that has the performance of a big V10 turbo diesel engine. It also makes use of the Corvette's dashboard with its 6000 RPM tachometer and 6-speed gear pattern.

*[[Porsche 911 Turbo]] (version 1.0) - A new version based on the original 911 Carrera 4 with performance and physics specifications providing 320 HP and rear wheel drive.

The '''Toyota Sprinter Trueno''' is one of the first cars in the "Tuned For Real" saga by [[Zapper]].

== Development ==
This Toyota model was made from scratch with the newly available Stressed tool at the time.

Initially intended to be a car with drift capabilities in Stunts, it turned out to be one of the slowest cars available.

One of the color schemes includes a "panda" scheme like the one featured in the "Initial D" Japanese [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0385426/ anime] series and [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0439630/ film].

== Performance ==
Although pretty close to the performance of the real car in terms of engine and physics related aspects, its grip capabilities on dirt road are better than expected. After all, it's a car that has been in its beta release state since 2010.

The very special '''Caterham Super Seven Jonathan Palmer Evolution''' from 1992 is a custom car that was projected to be part of Stunts to fit short and "twisted" tracks in the game.

This car is allowed to be used in the [[ZakStunts]] 2022 season.

== Development ==

The creation of this car was somehow difficult by the fact that this is a highly customized car in the real world and because of its rarity, only 50 examples were made.
Some compromises were taken in terms of color schemes and dashboard layout, mainly because there was no official brochure, but in the end, details like the original lime yellow background of the speedometer and rev counter, the small windshield with transparency and the right hand drive steering wheel, were reproduced.

On the 8th of April 2021, the car was released but was rapidly updated so a [http://forum.stunts.hu/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3720.0;attach=7284 1.1 version] was released the next day for speedometer and grip adjustment purposes.

On the 1st of May 2021, a version [http://forum.stunts.hu/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3720.0;attach=8608 1.1 mod 1.0] was made after the creation of a new custom [http://forum.stunts.hu/index.php?topic=3810.msg82262#msg82262 feature] that allows using custom colored needles for the speedometer and rev counter in Stunts, which improved the readability by changing the default white needles to black.

The natural lightness of this car allows great 0-100 MPH times and at the same time, very effective braking. It's a characteristic which made the real world model brake the 0-100-0 MPH record when released in 1992 (relegating the [[Ferrari F40]]).

The base specification of this car uses a 5 speed "long ratio" gearbox like one of several options available for this model. This choice allows it to get a better top speed (~145 MPH) comparatively over a 6 speed "short ratio" gearbox (~125 MPH).

'''Note:''' This "feather weight" car is prone to "flying carpets" and "fast landings".

Top Australian racer of Italian descent who incredibly hasn't got a [[ZakStunts]] victory yet. He's the manager of [[Race For Kicks]] along with [[Cas]] and was the project leader of the [[Chevrolet Corvette CERV III]]. He first started playing Stunts in 1996, but didn't participate in any online competitions until 2020 when he decided to introduce his 6 year old son to the game. Since then, he's been an active member of the community both in terms of racing and development.

KyLiE's first victory was in the November 2020 race on the track [http://www.raceforkicks.com/index.php?page=race&race=2020-05 Cavallino Rampante] in the Race For Kicks tournament.

The '''Chevrolet Corvette CERV III''' is a custom car brought to Stunts mainly by [[KyLiE]], with some assistance from [[Zapper]] and [[Cas]]. The 3D model and dashboard are based on the Test Drive III representation of the actual CERV III, but feature significant improvements and adaptations. The performance parameters have been configured from scratch by KyLiE alone.

The car saw its official debut on 1 October 2021, with the track [http://www.raceforkicks.com/index.php?page=race&race=2021-10 Alpine] in the [[Race For Kicks]] tournament. It was first featured in [[ZakStunts]] in season 2022 with the track [http://zak.stunts.hu/tracks/ZCT246 ReGeneration? (ZCT246)].

== Development ==

Around the middle of November 2020, [[KyLiE]] asked [[Cas]] how feasible it would be to import a Test Drive III car model into Stunts. Cas replied that making a Stunts-compatible model was not the problem, but interpreting the format of TD3 models might be unthinkable. Looking at the binary files, he hadn't a clue of how it could be done. Then KyLiE pointed out that he had seen a topic in the forum not long before regarding Test Drive III models. Cas remembered it. It was a Stunts forum topic that contained a [http://www.accursedfarms.com/forums/topic/2467-rosss-game-dungeon-test-drive-3/page/5/?tab=comments#comment-219733 link] to another forum in which somebody had created a Blender model of one of the Test Drive III scenarios. Cas downloaded it and found that the three original car models were part of the scenario model, so he cropped them and turned them into separate Blender files.

[[File:CERV_III_Early_3D_Model.png|left|thumb|400px|Early version of the 3D model rendered in Anim8or.]]

The idea was to re-scale one of the models and covert it to OBJ to load it with CarWorks or Stressed and start working on it. The CERV III was chosen first. The 3D model produced lots of artefacts in Stunts, so it was simplified until it was more or less stable and then Cas made the first very rudimentary 3SH file with CarWorks 0.1. He also obtained the dashboard images from Test Drive III by brute force, taking screenshots of the game and made a very basic VSH file that produced many glitches. From that point onward, KyLiE worked alone on the model for months with Cas only testing it from time to time.

KyLiE adapted the dashboard palette and made some modifications to make it look better. He got rid of the glitches and improved the gearbox. The 3D model was also specialised for Stunts, although it kept displaying some glitches from time to time. He then started working on the physical parameters from scratch with Cas testing the car every now and then. Most of the production of the car was months of KyLiE working on it alone. Quite a lot of time was spent optimising the CGA and EGA dashboard palettes. While it's likely that nobody will ever see them, KyLiE wanted the car to be complete, as though it was included with the original game or possibly offered as an official add-on.

As the 3D glitches continued to appear, KyLiE contacted [[Zapper]] for help. Zapper helped get rid of these glitches and made several improvements to the 3D model until it was fully optimised.

On 1 October 2021, KyLiE announced the new car with [http://forum.stunts.hu/index.php?topic=3832.0 this] forum post. On the same day, a race was started at [[Race For Kicks]] for its debut with a track by KyLiE called ''Alpine''.

== Performance ==

The performance of the CERV III in the Stunts world matches the real car as closely as possible. While it's impressive by supercar standards, it's important to remember that this is a road car, not a race car. It is similar to the [[Ferrari F40]] in terms of acceleration and grip, however the CERV III has a higher flat track top speed.
