September 04, 2008 Some Updates
09:00am by Lijen (Site)
Hey vDreamers, I wanted to keep you guys in the loop on whats going on on our side of things, development-wise and such. We just pushed out some minor updates, with some more stuff coming soon!
- Out of gas loophole fix – By popular demand, when a user accepts a challenge where the challenger runs out of gas, you will be rewarded a cool $400 and a win. The challenger’s challenge will automatically be canceled, and the challenger will be notified. If you were unfairly penalized chicken outs because of this loophole, submit a bug ticket and I will remove your unfair chicken outs.
- New Facebook Application Tab – For those of you using the “New Facebook”, you can now add the “My vDream” application tab and show off your vDream to all your friends.
- Updates to vDream Profile Boxes – We snazzied up the vDream widget in your profile “Boxes” page just a tad.
- We applied for the FB Fund – In an effort to try and get a little cash money, we’ve applied for the FB Fund. Fingers crossed, would be nice to be able to hire up some engineers. Help us out, if you like vDream leave us a review on the App Page!

September 04, 2008
Can you add some more statistics for the box (and the game)?
Total Current Car Win 100 60 Lose 40 30 chicken 5 0 Best Run 9.45 s 12.13 s Weekly Rewards
(the move your mouse on the reward images to see what they are stand for) - 10:15amby SAAM007

o I made mistake in the ALTs…
- 10:18am
should be most active.by SAAM007

September 04, 2008
thats a cool idea, but why do the aliens have fangs lol
- 10:49amby Anas MuQeem

September 04, 2008
wow Lijen, from the looks of your races win and loose, you are a super rich person lol!
keep up the good work anyways!
- 02:00pmby Robbie

September 04, 2008
i wonder whos the most active on this blog stuff, besides the mods, like who is active
- 02:19pmby Anas MuQeem
-
September 04, 2008
Anas, I used those aliens because when I looked for smiley, I came accross those and they have all kind of alien smiles.
- 02:48pm
but if you ask me there should be: a rim / shiny car for best looking car. and some other logos for the rest. and maybe add some other rewards like biggest chicken (with a chicken logo) and when you get less then 10 second run you automatic get “10s car reward” to mark the date. or over 1000 races (win+lose) you get 1000 races reward (with race flags logo) and all kind of reward/ marks.by SAAM007
-
September 04, 2008
I didn’t mantion that not all reward give you cash. they just to mark things you did in the game. Like if you get biggest chicken you need to pay fee not get cash lol. If you a chicken you should start race to get your cash chicken.

September 04, 2008
i think id just give up if my record was that bad…turn in the civic for a minivan (or an xb). also have u guys thought about adding racing fuel??? i dont think a 900+ viper can really run on standard 93 octane
- 03:39pmby Karson
-
September 04, 2008
I think the FD model of the RX7 should be added. and some more internal engine parts, like pistons, connecting rods, etc…

September 04, 2008
SAAM, im sure you’ve noticed those small facebook icons on your profiles. Just as a hint of things to come, we are planning on using that area as a status indicator. Where’d you get that box? Did you make it yourself?
- 09:25pmby Lijen
-
September 04, 2008
And about my car/record. I’m gonna have to hold fast with the civic. It’s the closest thing that we got to the EG (the vDream mascot) for now. Gotta stay true. It might not run those 1/4 miles, but its got a lof of heart =p
- 10:08pmby Lijen
-
September 04, 2008
lijen, why not have the civic hatch then, shiiit i’d get it, i love eg’s have the mascot in here bro, that would be sick
- 10:10pmby Anas MuQeem
-
September 04, 2008
Lijen, but saying box you mean the demo table of the stats ? so yes I did it myself (took only 5 min using basic HTML commands). It is look much better on IE7 then on FF/Opra/Safri and the images ALTs work on only on IE.

September 05, 2008
Great updates! My review has been done, lol! Hopefully, the FB Fund will pull through! ;-) Oh also, I noticed something pretty cool a little bit ago… the Saleen S5s Raptor! Check it out…
With all the talk and the new release of the new Saleen in vDream Racing, I wanted to share this with everyone: http://autos.yahoo.com/auto-shows/new_york_auto_show_2008_slideshow/2008_new_york_auto_show_gallery_2/saleen_s5s_raptor_concept …
Visit that link and it shows a bunch of pics of the Saleen S5S Raptor, the new concept car from the 2008 New York Auto Show!!! This car looks badass! Give it a go!

September 05, 2008
Updates sound great guys! How about adding a Gallardo so I can throw a TT on it?! I wouldn’t mind 1000+hp and it would fit nicely in between the S7 and GT3. I can definitely get more info if needed, there are body-kits and lip kits out there as well! The gallardo’s actually have a nice little aftermarket following. Heffner Performance is where you need to look to check out the Twin Turbo Gallardo’s!
- 02:21amby Josh Ferguson
-
September 05, 2008
how can u handle 900+ losses… must be tough… nah 1000+HP seem a bit much right now when all other cars are like 300-500 range.
- 02:35amby AaRoN
-
September 05, 2008
lol for 1, i think saleen butchered the image of the saleen by making that concept, i hope that isnt a new model in the future, for 2, i would like to see a gallardo, better yet a reventon, not 1000 hp, thats just not fair lol, but close and aaron.. my car has 605 horse lol, viper can get 900+ the saleen can get around 800 if i stand correct, and now i have a huge dilema on my hands
i have a gtr, weights to much, and ive been losing like hell… thinking of going to a gtr, or maybe if there is another car released sometime in the future, i’d like to know about it, so i dont dump for 70 something grand on it lol
- 05:51amby Anas MuQeem
-
September 05, 2008
i want to see the evo 8/9, seriously, that is an amazing car, and can pull off 600+ easy and be f**kin insane pyscho, the supra, we all know what supras are capeable of, the rx7, not the rx8, rx7s are sick if done right, honda civic hatch, eg’s not EKS, EKS ARE GAY AS BALLS lol….this game needs to have the big milestones in car production, those that i named, and the old skyline, the r33’s and r34s, twin turbo supra, same with rx7, monster evo,
- 06:21amby Anas MuQeem
-
September 05, 2008
I hear ya, Anas, I’d love to have all those cars. But our priority is BALANCE! If we only had japanese imports we’d lose everyone who loves muscle cars, euro, etc.

-
September 05, 2008
how about make this game into an autocross race? where everything becomes a factor and 400HP would have a chance beating a 700HP car :) heheheheh nah i wouldn’t want you guys to do that. vDream is awesome already. keep coming with the new cars!

September 06, 2008
okay, im just going to post a heads up to the people who dont like there losses catching up lol
okay first of all the GTR is definatly godzilla, weights way to damn much lol and the porsche is definately not worth the money u pay for lol
i myself have a white gtr, i had a 10 to 1 ration of wins/losses now its caught up to 2/1 pretty much, which is bad, either go for the viper.. if u have the money.. lol i myself am going to go back to my first car i had the 10/1 ratio with, plus, its fun ganking noobies lol, easy money, and easy wins… no1 seems to understand weight reduction is a must, everyones like I NEED 2 RECARO SEATS lol, for what? lol
i am at 170/111/0 if i get to 150 before i reach 200, im switching
- 09:42amby Anas MuQeem

September 06, 2008
whats a good car? ive been looking at m3’s lately, but idk
ill get 2k back which is very unrealistic, im trading a gtr for a m3.. and i only get 2k back, lijen or cheech, u guys need to make this more reasonable, cuz im getting hella skeeted out… lol, m3’s now a days are around 20-30k depending on the car, ur saying i buy a gtr for 10500k, talking about real life prices, which i think should be a priority in this game, now some made up price, like have the real life aspect in the game, dont have the brand new car price, have the price of the car of which is selling to this day, gtrs are brand new, make them have the stock price, m3’s have 2 years on em, thus price has gone down, maybe they were 42k, but now they have dropped a good 10k or so, make that happen, the saleen, is a good example… i found a used saleen 585k, thats is definatly damn near that 600k, which is fine, other thing… not being a dick or anything, i doubt a mini cooper is the same price as the new gti’s if that was the case, i dont think i’d see many mini coopers driving around lol other then that, everything is fine, im just speaking my mind on certain things, trying to be helpful, cuz i know u guys wanna make this ap as realistic as possible
thanks
- 09:51amby Anas MuQeem

September 06, 2008
i mean 105000
- 09:51amby Anas MuQeem
-
September 06, 2008
lol i said screw it and god a viper lol, i need 6k for the twin turbochargers lol, thats hella funny, when i saw the numbers
510/535 to 920/958
hahaha
- 10:19amby Anas MuQeem
-
September 06, 2008
I agree with Anas. The price you get on your used car is bad. I got Viper with some updates (29,020 worth (include the vDream Medallion)) and I need to add $34,828 for brand new viper ?
- 10:34am110K worth car you get 48K ?
It is not reasonable to lose more then half worth. I can understand I get 70%-75% but less then 50%.
But on the other hand if you going to make a user market it will fix it because you can ask about 70%-80% and you probably sell for it (will take time but in the end you will find buyer).
about what car:
BMW M3 is great and better then the GTR and got low weight so I lose for full update M3 quite often with my Viper 651 HP/660 TQ/3,234 lbs.
I think stick with you first car until you get like enough for Viper + another 30K for updates (so you can buy Supercharger and the rest of updates except Twin Turbocharger that cost 60K). – [you will need like 90K from the first car]
and then save for the Turbocharger (another 61.5K Tourbocharger and Intake Manifold) and then you have the car with the most horse power in the game.
About the Saleen – great car. I think with a little more power (more then stock one) it will be able to kick Viper full update ass because it weight about 300 lbs less then the Viper. but if the viper will get Carbon Hood and more parts and will lose some weight it might be able to stand with the Saleen.by SAAM007
-
September 06, 2008
yeah true, thanks sam for backing me up, about the saleen tho, u gotta agree with me, look around on the blogs, people hitting 700 wins, arnt even at 300k in money wise, most of em are hitting 200k, and they need 400k still, minus however much there car takes back from price, no1 is close to getting a saleen. lol, sam dude, help me get 6k lol, IM AT 54K AND I WANT THE TWIN TURBOCHARGERS lol
heres my info add me on facebook lol

September 06, 2008
ahh u guys need another way to get more income, maybe make it to 20 invites a day, not 12 or 16 or whatever it is lol, and make it to wear, u shouldnt have to wait for the other person to accept it, i remember reading something about that somewhere
- 10:57amby Anas MuQeem
-
September 06, 2008
yeah make it 20 invites per day.
- 11:20amby krs

September 06, 2008
bahh i hate being up and not being able to earn anymore money cuz ive maxed invited and sent challenges…. i need 5k lol ima shootmyself in the head
sum1 needs to challenge me
- 01:26pmby Anas MuQeem
-
September 06, 2008
Maybe instead of give 15 challenges a day. gives 10 every 12 hours. I mean something that gives more cash to active members.
- 03:46pm
or maybe you can add “race day” challanges once a week or so. to sign it cost like 100$ but then you go over all the cars registered and take 4 from the same class/stats and do random race between them and the winner of the 4 gets like 1000$.
another idea is challange your friends with bets. I mean you can choose to challange your friends and set an amount (between 100$ to 1000$). Accept you calculate the racing time and the winner gets both bets (200$ to 2000$) the loser get nothing.
just some ideas.by SAAM007

September 06, 2008
Please add the 03/04 mustang cobras! Everyone knows they are beasts! they come stock with forged internals and are supercharged! Also adding an option for forged internals to the other cars would be a good idea!
- 04:03pmby Cmoney

September 06, 2008
lol we need to have teams, im going to start a team, who wants to join ? im about to have a monster viper and im going to make a team
sam i like the idea, but confusing
- 04:10pmby Anas MuQeem
-
September 06, 2008
Is it just me or is there no Chevys in here?
Nope theres just no Chevys! We need at least a Corvette Z06 if not a 2009 Corvette ZR1. Both of which can smoke Vipers like nobodys buisness.
With a price tag of around $100,000 the ZR1 can run with ANY supercar from around the world. With 638 hp @6500 rpm and 604 ft-lb torque @6500 it is a beast. It basically has 100 hp per liter (6.2 V8) Yes a V8.
It has one of the best power to weight ratio of any car (3324 lbs), better than the Porsche 911 GT2, Ferrari 599, and the Lamborghini LP640.
And with 0-60 in about 3 seconds you’re gonna need a new pair of pants when you punch it in this car!

We hear you guys on more ways to make money, and I’m open to suggestions. We need money (like real money) so that I can get help building all the stuff I want to build first =). Car shows, teams, garage space are all things that we are pushing hard for. Don’t worry guys, we have the vision and its exactly what you are seeing in your minds too. I’m doing everything in my living power to make it happen.
And on the car/parts front… Cheechoo is your man. He is god of all cars + parts in vDream.
- 06:56pmby Lijen

September 06, 2008
oh, and the limit for invitations is controlled by Facebook and not us. If it were up to me, I’d let you guys invite 100 users per day =p

September 06, 2008
OK then:
Cheechoo, part’s god, please take a look on my dream parts for Honda Civic (and I hope you will make some of them and I already submit most of them if not all):

- Dark/Black tinted headlights
- Front Bumper gril
- underlighting
- Vinlys
- No Honda badge – gril instead.
- Color fuel cover.
- Color side mirrors. (prefer M3 style side mirrors)
Tell me this car isn’t great :)

- Dark/Black tinted headlights

Did I said that if you add most of this stuff I am selling my Viper and go back to the Honda Civic ? and hope to win best looking car of the week :)

September 07, 2008
did you guys also change who you can randomly challenge or does everyone just have a 976hp viper now? i can’t get anything BUT vipers to show up randomly to challenge.
- 03:55pmby SA
-
September 07, 2008
If you got viper with 976HP you can’t race anything except viper with 976HP and maybe Saleen (that no one have).
- 04:32pm
The random challenge find players with about the same class as you. You think it is fair to race a Viper with 976HP against Honda Civic with 349HP ?by SAAM007

September 08, 2008
lol dude, just take off ur twin turbochargers, u can challnge sti’s porsches and gti’s and suburu’s and then once u max those, put the twin turbocharger on lol

September 08, 2008
hi i have a question….how do you remove the intake so you can put on the supercharger cuz i bought one for my car and the horsepower hasnt been applied if you know the answer could you email me at fredhonore@students.kuyper.edu it would be a HUGE help or if you know how to contact someone who could answer this that would be helpful too…thank you

hey there, right before I bought the 1967 chevy camaro, I took off the accessories from my previous car so that I could save them and put them on my camaro. however, I’m going to the parts shed so I can put them on but I don’t see them, although when I go to the sell parts, it’s all there. I’m confused :(, is this a glitch?
