Title: Wheel Popularity
Post by: [MAF]Epoxi on March 26, 2013, 06:05:18 pm: (http://i40.tinypic.com/2b8wbb.png)

KEY Left to Right:

Code: [Select]
1st row: Import, Atomic, Ahab, Virtual, Access, Classic, Dollar, Twist 2nd row: Wires, Trance, Offroad, Cutter, Rimshine, Mega, Grove, Switch, Shadow
Counts for number of users using a particular wheel:

Shown without Shadow...

I assume Shadow is over-represented because it is at the top of the rims selection list.

Post by: [MAF]Karlis on March 26, 2013, 08:40:55 pm: theres a big menu position bias to this :(

i think there were objects that looked like the rims, right(or just using rim id as object)?
it could possibly work with the new preview textdraw functions so we can actually make menu where players choose by looks.

Post by: [MAF]Karlis on March 27, 2013, 12:29:14 pm: i periodically switch through those: Cutter, Rimshine, Mega, Grove, Switch, Shadow, rest looks too much like in GTA 3 or just aren't the type i like.

;)

It's the best picture I could find for showcasing all the wheels available.

Btw I forgot you made the pack :D, the other day I was trying to remember who made it because Karlis was asking if there was an HD remake of Rimshine wheels.

Switch wheels are very popular, especially since they are reasonably expensive, as are cutter.

Only one baller has purchased dollar wheels (same for Twist).

Offroad's popularity is probably related to it being top of the /buywheels list. ::)

Post by: moerks on April 02, 2013, 07:42:20 pm: I've actually never noticed any difference when driving with Cutter, Switch, Dollars or Offroad. To me it always seemed like a fanatical immagination to believe in having an even proper handling with Offroad. :L
Title: Re: Wheel Popularity
Post by: [FSR]Ush on April 02, 2013, 09:58:16 pm: It's scientifically proven that if you believe in a thing like offroad rims to be better, you will perform better as well.

But theoretically, the wheels are all the same.
