Here is my final savegame. with extra peer
http://www.mediafire.com/download/dv5dz779o5d9qwg/LATEST_SAVE_v2_with_PEER_and_SAUS-a-GUESS.rar
dont forget to make meshsave.txt a read only file if you want the dents to repair upon reloading the game.

Your car is now repaired with all of your work intact.
>>15054286
What are the system requirements for the game?
>>15054478
have a functioning computer made anywhere in the past 8 years
>>15054478
Not very high, I'm on an ancient gtx460 and it runs fine.
>>15054478
fuck all could run it on a shitty laptop
Does anyone know if this game is still being worked on? It has so much potential to be one of the most popular indie games out. Last video the creator uploaded was 1 year ago from what I can tell.
>>15054484
Looks like I can't run it
>>15054489
dev claims that it will be this summer. maybe someone show him the thread.
>>15054427
Clutch master cilinder.
Do I have to mess with the valves before I finally start my car? I have the choke on full but I just swear and it turns off before any start.
any way to reset the cars position? I pushed it in the shed and cant get it back out
>>15054286
>mega.nz
why? pls stop.

I tried to go home a different way, got lost and then this happened. Glad I spent 400 bucks on peer and sausage because now I'll never have them. :'(
i found a way to watch videos while driving. its like using cellphone while driving in gta4
>>15054517
Now it pops and he curses even more.
>>15054552
Go 20 clicks down on every valve, then up 8 or 9.
>>15054573
Down is what? wheelup? clockwise?
>>15054307
Your car pops and sputters then lights on fire.
>>15054581
DOWN MOUSE WHEEL DOWN.
>>15054582
bad luck?
How do I shift into gear? I want to drive the van but it seems I'm stuck in neutral
>>15054618
x for clutch, f for up, v for down.
Can someone explain how the idle adjust works? mine smokes but no matter what way i turn it it keeps smoking. what way do i turn the mouse wheel for leaner and richer?
>>15054623
Thanks
does the experimental ffb work well?
>>15054655
nope
>>15054440

>>15054573
>>15054581
>>15054596
Did that, doesn't start. Do you fucking use magic to start this fucking car?
>>15054690
Use the choke first, than try to start the car
i can't into engine hoist, my car just flipped its shit and noped out
>>15054630
forward is richer
backwards is leaner
i found the point where it is just lean enough for it not to smoke and then go 4 more lean.
200kph in the car isn't scary at all. They 100kph in the van. Goes all over the joint.
>>15054705
Di that, nothing happens. Does the valve cover need to be put in?
>>15054734
You can start the engine without it, but the car will leak oil quickly
>>15054777
Ok cool but it won't start, the moment it turn the key ti shuts off and the finish farmer swears. Any ideas? everything is completely bolted down.
Im working on wikia about this. any help would be great
http://my-summer-car.wikia.com/wiki/My_Summer_Car_Wikia
>>15054786
Sorry for the stupid question (and my bad english) but did you put the gasoline in? Did you adjust the carburetor? When you try to start the engine, press the gas pedal many times and if it start, press again the gas pedal until the temperature goes up
>>15054824
Gas yeah, carb no because I don't know shit about cars. Will fiddle with it thanks m8 cheers
>>15054824
>>15054859
Do you adjust the carburator with idle screw?
>>15054859
No problem, dude! Try to adjust it with the screwdriver
>>15054724

I accidently hit esc before unloading the van and now I'm missing a tire.

So, I sent the envelope now what?
>>15055157

most fun i've had this weekend
>>15055569
I love how ridiculous this game is.
Somehow, I managed to break the van or some shit. I flipped it going to the shop and now it cranks for a couple seconds and the stops. It was working fine when I left.
>>15055747
Are you in first gear with the handbrake off?
>>15055751
Yup. I just reloaded so that I would spawn back at the house and it fixed itself.
god DMAN wheres the last bolt on the gearshift linkage, can only find the two on the gearbox
>>15055851
theres one above that linked to an arm on the gearbox
I just started the game and after 30 minutes of headscratching managed to start the van on my own
I flipped it a few feet down the road
10/10 best game
How to get for easy $$? I've tried cheat enfine to no avail
>>15055978
People say cheat engine works, but when you're cutting logs, just smash the log on the floor. If you can stack the broken wood close around where it spawns, it will get to a point where it breaks as soon as it spawns in. If that doesn't make sense let me know, I'm watching the thread as I play lol

Unless you live in the southwest, you'd better know how to weld. You'd also think parts would be cheap but you'd be very wrong, especially the NOS stuff. Craigslist is your best bet for a car and a lot of the parts, a lot of guys will just stockpile shit.
t. 240Z owner.
>>15056096
There's a 280z on Craigslist right now, and it's the first I've seen in awhile though it doesn't run. I'm in the southeast, about 30 minutes off the coast.

did someone say wood
>>15056134
Try to drop it into the sauna
I chopped up enough wood to earn 1000 Money, some of it somehow ended up in my garage? What the fuck?
how the fugg do i get the god damn van in gear?
>mfwIhnf this thing to rebuild instead of a car
>>15056241
Step 1 change gearing to Automatic on the title menu
Step 2 F for gear up V for gear down
Van won't even start for me, is this some kind of a joke?
>>15056280
>turn ignition
>wait for the red upper-center light to turn off

In the main menu be sure to set off the 4 gear thing, x is the clutch unless you check for automatic
made it run.
now how do i make it run good?
i already adjusted the valves. do i need an actual exhaust?

>>15056359
Hop in the seat. Literally.
I found out that the driver seat collides with the interior of the car and i use it to put the car over the inspection pit.
>>15056318
yes exhaust plays key role in performance
>>15056254
If you develop it, I will pirate it, then maybe buy it.
>>15054865
Yes.

He's not streaming right now, but NPH1995 streams the newest build of MSC here twitchDOTtvSLASHnph1995. He's in finland, so just keep checking his twitter and twitch for times.
>>15056474
find small bed, not the big one
>>15056474
No need to currently as nothing happens if your gauges are maxed. You use the bed in the house to sleep for 8 hours and you wake up rested.
>>15054984
Motherfucker was in the cab of the van.
>>15056409
THANKS ANON!
Seriously though, if you're careful this is a really good tip.
Holy shit I can't start the car because I keep laughing
>>15056549
Aaand forgot pic related.
where do i post letter for car parts?
>>15056709
At the gas station, in the mailbox by the front door, wait one day, then pay at register, and pickup packages on back porch of store by door.
>>15056719
>>15056307
thanks guy
this game looks fun, but ive been set up for dissapointment too many times with new releases so i only play rogue nowadays
is it fun?
>>15056752
pretty frustrating actually.
too much realism and glitches
too much peer
>>15056752
Surprisingly yes. If you're autistic about game quality and can't handle bugs, skip it. But the bugs are hilarious, check out some of the greentexts in the threads about it.
>>15056752
It's not released and was never meant to be seen by more than 6 people in this state. Saying that, if you work on shitbox cars all day and come home and work on more shitbox cars while getting shitfaced in your driveway then yes it's fucking hilarious.
How the fuck do I get this camshaft to go in? Should I have done it before putting in the cylinders? I've gotten it in once before but that was a long time ago and I forgot the order.
>>15056844
Goes in after the cylinders. Make sure it's in the right hole. (giggity)
>flip car
>guy sits crooked in the car for the journey home
I love this game
>>15056858
Fuuuuuuck I've tried both cylinders to no avail for like 20 minutes now. Does one side come with a rusted thing attached or did I attach that
>>15056873
Er, holes.
>>15056873
Is the cam gear somehow one? Or the crank gear? take a screencap if you still can't get it.

>>15056911
Am I fucking up? I feel like I'm getting it dead on. For the record, the left side is the alternator side?
>>15056951
Left side yes, did you install the distributor?
>>15056966
Yeah
>>15056966
>>15056986
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa I see my mistake. Thank you so much for your help. But why does that order matter?
Btw does anyone know how to enable the console? I did once by error and I can't seem to find it anymore, I saw in the dev videos that it's able to display rpms, power and other info
>>15057001
Distributor gear engages onto the camshaft to rotate, if you look at the piece that goes inside the block there's a small gear, it then goes spinny and sends power to the sparkplugs
>>15057019
I see, and that's all the camshaft's purpose, is to feed power to the sparkplugs? I thought I heard something about it having to do with valves.
>>15057060
Yeah that's the main purpose of the camshaft, pushes the rods up and down in this case
Actual decent thread needs a bump.
This piece of shit is so aggravating but i love it
the fucking flies and dog barking is doubling up with my neighbors dogs and the local beekeepers shitters.
I'm scared to try FFB, does it work nicely as long as you keep the car on the ground?
>>15057648

Fuck. My shifter linkage is all bolted in, my clutch fluid is filled... what the fuck is wrong?
>>15057083
>Feed power to the sparkplugs
>Thinking this is what a camshaft does.
Plug wires feed power to the plugs.
A camshaft in a conventional pushrod motor pushes the rods up and down which push on lifters and injectors.
does the dual carb need the air filter? I can't get it on.
>>15057740
No, they have their own preinstalled.
>>15057709
Okay I was missing a bolt tightened in the clutch line, but I STILL can't get this thing to move. I tightened the half shaft connectors and everything....

FUCK ME
>>15057992
Literally me right now famalam, minus the explosion
I didn't adjust my valves or anything, is that whats wrong?
>>15057895
Its cheating a little, but check the text in the save file, the parts section at the top will have (8)'s for all the tight bolts and (0)-(7) for anything thats loose.
Why the fuck wont my exhaust go on?
>>15057992
Lol is all I can say that sounds spectacular.
Yessir, the fun just never stops.
finally made some progress
As dude sus game looks so nice.
Shame my shitbox pc doesn't have a real dedicated graphics card
At least euro truck runs 25 atm if there are no cars and I'm with my headlights off at 12pm in the middle of a single Lane route
HOW THE FUCK DO YOU BOLT THE FUCKING ENGINE IN??
How come on my third car build so far, now my hood collides with my air cleaner and won't close all the way? Or is it not the air cleaner? How the fuck do I get it mounted properly?
>>15058271
I just took the air filter off. When you get the twin carbs it doesn't collide.
>>15057992
I just got the shitter bolted in and noticed the head gasket on the shelf
too scared to try to start it up
>>15058370
>do eet faggot
Downloading it right now.
>ohboyherewego.jpg
ffs i can barely build the engine, i have no idea how to drive the van and idk how to move around the shell so i can bolt shit on
i cant even download the game wtf
>>15054307
lol runs like shit
>earlier driving it around
>Stalls out a few times
>Try to start it the last time
>Catches fire
Then 5 minutes ago
>Load it up with lots of Peer because going camping
>Stalls while pulling out of the driveway
>Drop a gear and rev it pretty high as I drive by the barn

>>15057895
The drive gear messed me up a bunch of times. Make sure all of the bolts are tight.
>>15058612
If you tune your car right you can almost wrap the speedo completely around. I got to probably 230kmh before I slid off the road and fell through the map.
help im inside my house at night and i cant find the bed
>>15058696
although i must admit that flying around the dirt roads at roughly 80km/h in the fan is fun (even though i accomplished nothing other than buying 6 crates of peer and still have no idea what im doing)
i dont understand i went to the link and downloaded megasync but wheres the game?
JUMALAUTA!
>>15058734
download through the browser dumbass
alright i cant figure out how to drive with the tractor
>>15058808
nevermind figured it out
>Thirst meter going up
How the fuck do I drink the Goddamn peer? reeeeeeeeee
fucking hell lifting the car up with the tractor is a nightmare
I don't think I'm autistic enough to play this.
It's more frustrating than it is fun.
>>15058944
U key nigga
>can't fit other bearings on crankshaft because rotation of bearing is retarded
shouldn't matter, just try to centre it where it should go. also scroll with mouse wheel to rotate vertically
>>15058983
It helps if you jack it up on both sides first.
When I try to run this game on linux it just stops on loading screen
Any help?
>>15059191

help, i dropped my engine into the engine bay by accident and i cant seem to get it attached to the hoist again
my problems started when i couldnt get the engine mount bolts to appear
I accidentally the van (the whole thing!) into a hole in the map with a bunch of car parts in the back of it.
The gauges and my cd player showed up in my inspection pit, but my spoilers and my sub woofers didn't.
I re-bought the spoilers and they didn't appear on the porch with the rest of my parts. Help.
>>15059416
having sort of the same issue, cant find where the engine attaches
>>15059438
If you mean where it attaches to the subframe, look at the metal bars that extend in the front left and front right corner, align them very carefully and precisely with the patches of the subframe. The third is in the back of the bay on the bottom, but just look at the front left one and move it until a screw on the subframe appears on that spot. Once you screw that one in, the engine will be fixed in position and you can do the other 2
>>15059420
life in not USA
everyones first time was like this, r-right?
Gear stick needs to be bolted on?

GOT IT!!!!!!
Thread theme: https://youtu.be/VXX31rtHgrY
so i got the car working and running but the throttle does nothing, the car idles for a few seconds then dies
>>15059719
i messed around with idler screw, i can now throttle for a few seconds but then it still dies
When I put gear in, I don't move. Gear linkage is connected and bolted, so is shifter.
>>15059719
>>15059726
a series of disasterous events have occured after i suffered from a case of lead foot, loud backfire followed and then the car died and is refusing to start up
>>15059763
you blew the engine
>>15059791
what now? :(
>>15059763
I was going to suggest to adjust the valves, but I reckon you'll need an engine rebuild now...
>>15059806
i suppose i deserve this. do i have to start over or is there some way around this because goddamn assembling the suspension is a bitch
>>15059800
If you have a save you made before, reload that. If not, then:
>go to C:\USERS\USERNAME\APPDATA\LOCALLOW\ROYAL JOHN LOVE\MY SUMMER CAR
>copy your defaultES2File to desktop
>start a new game and save it
>replace defaultES2File with yours
Should get the motor working with your parts and repair the damage. Someone else suggested setting the meshsave as read only but my engine randomly was low on oil one time and the radiator was on the ground another time.
>>15059825
cant find that folder in locallow, have it set to show hidden files and folders aswell
>>15054286
I get in and started her up to go get some peer and sausages and fell through the planet.
>>15059823
http://www.mediafire.com/download/scnagp0ztpii6em/Car_done_and_tuned.rar
The tune on this one is much better than the shitty one itt. It's better than starting completely over.
I'm very afraid.
>>15059838
i want the experience of building it myself though, such as it may be right now
sidenote, it's still not running after doing the defaultes2file thing
having similar issues here as blown engine anon except i didnt blow mine, how apart do i have to take the engine to get the rocker cover off?
>>15059862
I'm pretty sure that the meshsave.txt file is the one that controls the damage and the defaultES2File.txt is the one that controls which parts you have purchased, assembled, etc. I will try blowing my engine and seeing if replacing any of the files will help get it running again. I normally just reload a save I made after I built and upgraded the car if I wreck or anything happens.
>>15059791
You need to drink more peer
>>15059895
Not on top speed runs I don't. I already had a case fall out and ended up running over it and fucking up my bumper when I went back to get it.
>>15059887
The meshsave file will repair damaged bodywork but it won't repair the engine. Pretty sure once it saves with a blown engine that's it.
>>15059928
i wish there was a save with the suspension built, i wouldnt mind building the engine again but fuck the suspension and the tractor antics
does anyone know how I could invert my pedal axis for the game? My pedal for some reason shows inverted value so its applied all the time and that prohibits me from driving with the pedals.
Can someone tell me why i'm constantly on the throttle with keyboard and mouse and how can I fix this?
>>15059938
I used the floor jack in the middle of the passenger door for each side. I've built the car 4 or 5 times and haven't used the tractor at all. You can pick up the car from the side with it, but move a part too quickly and the car is flipped over and fucked up.
I have tried jalopy and its a shit game, not even close to this game.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-z4iw8Ppo1o
Is this the creator?
>>15060066
What makes it worse? The graphics look dumb as fuck.
how can i get the van running and actually go forward
i mean i get it to start once and after trying to get going it shuts down and doesnt start anymore
>>15054307
Thankyou
The car is abit rough when it starts, after driving a while it gets abit warmer and doesnt stall, adjusting the idle screw helps also
> Had to go light speed before shop closed for me PEER
>>15060151
now the whole fucking game is broken since the van doesnt start at all
>>15060149
The engine building element is way too simplified, the emphasis is more on the roadtrip
>>15059964
Have you got a controller plugged in?
In the van as soon as I let off the clutch it quits.
Help?
Car flipped over.
Wat do.
>>15060158
pull the choke half way out. also it runs on the lean side but i found out after uploading the save.
Is there a way to look at what size a bolt or nut is? Pain in the ass rifling through random sizes trying to get the right one.

>>15060158
What did you do to make it run better? i would like to know so i can fix mine too.
Do I have to add oil to transmission too or there is no such option?
>>15060384
Press F6
I got the engine running, putting in the gear and it doesn't move. Clutch and brakes have brake fluid, engine has coolant and oil. Can anyone help?
>>15060474
Also it is kind of idling now, doesn't die.
I went to the shop, did some shopping and saved the game without getting home. When I continued the game the van was there right to my house but the sausages and PEER that I bought were no longer in the trunk. Is it supposed to work like this?
>>15060482
gotta go back
Is there a way to move the car around before you get an engine in? I've got a rolling car now but I want to put it over the inspection ramp to work underneath.
>>15060593
i picked up the drivers seat and pushed it with that
so i broke my windshield with my drivers seat, is this permanently broken?
Where the hell do I add oil? I see where I can drain it on the bottom, but where can I pour it in?
Anybody else having trouble getting the water pump on?
>>15060684
Place the timing cover first. The timing chain drives the camshaft and is under the cover so it can get lubricated from the oil pan, while everything else that is driven by the belt is outside of it.
Is it normal for the car to overheat while redlining it on the highway?
blown engine anon here
i started anew and this time i did not suffer from lead foot and figured out how the choke works thus not revving my engine to the stratosphere
it is, however, not moving when i put it in gear
>>15060698
Yeah just got it cheers.

Have you never fucking changed oil before?
>>15060760
i checked the gear linkage, gear stick, both ends of halfshafts, i guess next step is check gearbox?
>>15060764
What can be wrong in with gearbox?
>>15060764
Did you put fluid in the clutch?
>>15060777
might have missed a bolt when putting on clutch or bolting on gearbox
>>15060779
relatively sure i did, you only have to put it in 1 of the canisters right
>>15060787
i checked and one of the reservoirs is completely empty and if i fill it up it just empties out again
Anybody else having trouble taking their clutch off? It's like it's stuck to the flywheel, all bolts are off on the cover plate but it just won't come off.

mystery solved, gearbox wasnt fully tightened
>>15060834
How many bolts/nuts?
>>15060852
the 10mm one wasnt tightened at all and 2 of the 7mm ones were like a 10th of a turn short
>>15060862
also i didnt tighten the line going to the clutch reservoir so that just ran empty aswell

And now the car moves?
Also I can't get the car up without tractor, the car jack just goes through the body.
