How-to: LEGO Stunt Rally Chip

[@MA-naconitor]

Never thought I'd see my childhood nostalgia in 1080p!

[@StudframeAnimations]

Hahah hope you liked it! More videos are to come! 😁

[@Tsnelo]

I remember having this set in real life, although it's now scattered between various parts bins. Thanks for letting us see it virtually reconstructed in HD.

[@StudframeAnimations]

That’s awesome! I hope you had fun with the set! 😁

[@NEEDbacon]

Was just about to say the same thing as I remember this being an actual set at the time.

[@Nowhere536]

The background looks so well detailed, I also like how the decals on the side of the car look

[@StudframeAnimations]

Thank you! I’m glad you noticed the details. ❤

[@Nowhere536]

@@StudframeAnimations You're very welcome! I always look forward to seeing your animations

[@CaptainPlums]

Man, you do great work bringing modern life to these childhood classics. As a kid I played nearly all of them.

[@StudframeAnimations]

Thank you so much! It’s so fun bringing these classic games to the modern times. I hope it brought up some great memories. 😁

[@CaptainPlums]

@@StudframeAnimations It sure did! Any plans for LEGO Loco? Really curious to see how that'd look, I have a friend who only ever played that one out of the Lego games and I think he'd enjoy seeing that as well.

[@StudframeAnimations]

@@CaptainPlums Not at the moment. I've thought about what a video about LEGO Loco would look like, but I don't really have any ideas yet. I think that a gameplay-like video of the game in modern graphics would be a bit boring to watch. Need to think about some sort of a story within the video. But haven't got the right idea yet. But I would love to make videos about LEGO Loco in the future.

[@CaptainPlums]

@@StudframeAnimations Perhaps a modern version with the same overhead camera angle that Legoland and Stunt Rally have so you can show all the models in 3D. I remember the whole thing with the postcards as well, and of course the train is a must-have in that one.

[@StudframeAnimations]

@@CaptainPlums That sounds good. I’ll put it on the idea list. Thanks for the ideas! 😁

[@Lu9_ST]

i love how you recreated pretty much everything... the UI graphics in higher resolution, the pre-rendered backgrounds, and even the FMVs... makes me want an actual remastered version!

[@StudframeAnimations]

Thank you so much! I do wonder what a remastered game would look like. Maybe with the ability to actually steer the car. 😁

[@Lu9_ST]

@@StudframeAnimations fun fact, you actually can do that in the original game! the developers left a debug flag in it that you can toggle to steer your car freely... it's kinda buggy though and some tracks are actually impossible to win with it. but it's still fun to mess around with!

[@StudframeAnimations]

@@Lu9_ST Ohh that's really fun! A remaster with a steering option is a must then. 😋

[@TufteMotorsport]

Lol, turning of Mr X at the end. Him and Mr Ablebody is the most talkative guys in the Lego universe. I look forward to Mr X's car. It feels like an evolution of Rocket racers car and Mr X feels like a precursor to Drome racers' Dromulus. Great video as always.

[@StudframeAnimations]

Thank you so much! Unfortunately Mr X’s car uses a lot of pieces that don’t exist. Neither purple, nor magenta have the correct pieces. But I’m still trying to make it work. 😁

[@StudframeAnimations]

Ohh and I’m glad you noticed turning the Mr. X screen off. I hoped someone would find that funny. 😜

[@TufteMotorsport]

@@StudframeAnimations Perhaps you could make it in alternative colours? Brad Speedo colours perhaps? Yeah, I remember reading on RockRaidersUnited that Intelegent games got special coloured bricks by Lego. Baron Flambo has a red Adventurers radiator that doesn't exist. But they were able to build prototypes with real bricks.

[@StudframeAnimations]

@@TufteMotorsportYou could probably build Mr X’s car in red. But purple/magenta is so iconic and important for his look. For now I’ll focus on the ones that are possible without alternatives. 😁

[@Maniac4Bricks]

Thank you for not including Mr. X's constant "helpful" dialogue throughout the whole build, lol the ending got me.

[@StudframeAnimations]

Hahah i hoped someone would find that funny. 😜

[@alexgeorge501]

I's always love playing this game after school along with Racers, LEGOLAND, Rock Raiders, Creator and Island 1+2

[@StudframeAnimations]

Awesome! I did exactly the same! 😁

[@alexgeorge501]

@@StudframeAnimations i also played Racers 2, Friends, LOCO, Soccer Mania & Creator Knights Kingdom+Harry Potter

[@StudframeAnimations]

@@alexgeorge501 You played most of the LEGO games from that time period. They’re so iconic. 😁

[@StormcellX]

@@StudframeAnimations I'll be here for it :D

[@talos.fractal_author]

Amazing. I still can remember, when KZbin started, there was only one video of it online. And now, many years later this game is still not dead. Thank you for the effort you put into this. As a 3D and Blender enthusiast myself, I know how time consuming 3D Scenes can be. By the way: Best menu soundtrack ever!

[@StudframeAnimations]

Thank you so much! That's the really cool thing about KZbin. Being part of small communities talking about very niche LEGO games from 20+ years ago. There is something so cool about bringing them to the modern times. Awesome that you do stuff in 3D as well! It's so much fun, but as you said, so time consuming. For me it's worth it when reading these kind comments. I love the menu music as well. Pretty simple but really good! 😁

[@DatGunter]

OH MY GOSH I HAD THIS SET AS A KID!!!! Thank you :D

[@StudframeAnimations]

Awesome! I hope you still have it! 😁

[@DatGunter]

@@StudframeAnimations I Do! :) In my big lego mass box somewhere haha!

[@StudframeAnimations]

@@DatGunter Cool, maybe it would be fun to build it again. 😁

[@wendigockel]

When i played that game as a child, Chip always was my favourite to pick. Now that I'm twenty years older, i've realised that i sort of look like Chip. The blond goatee, the smirk... All that Chip is missing is long blond hair!

[@StudframeAnimations]

Awesome! Pretty cool how that happens. Do you also like tigers? 😋

[@wendigockel]

@@StudframeAnimations I'm more of a Rooster-guy (as if you couldn't tell :D), but i could totally see myself wearing that Tiger-jacket!

[@StudframeAnimations]

@@wendigockel Haha great! A rooster jacket would be cool too. 😜

[@JeynickRuns]

[@tamasbognar9540]

your vids are way too nostalgic :)

[@StudframeAnimations]

Hahah thank you so much! I hope they brings fond memories. 😁

[@Zoomer3989]

this is awesome! loved it. speaking of ZANTHERA, any thoughts of doing a vid like this for there version of Baron Flambo's hot rod?

[@StudframeAnimations]

Thank you! I wish I could make a video about Baron Flambo's car but the front grill piece with the headlights doesn't exist in red. However, some people like Zanthera manged to get the prototype piece in the correct color. Which is awesome, but unfortunately not feasible for most people. So for that reason, I don't think I'll make a video about Baron Flambo.

[@Zoomer3989]

@@StudframeAnimations yeah I get it, the reverse colored one at least uses an existing black engine block brick. Can't find instructions for it anywhere since stunt rally is a pretty niche game

[@StudframeAnimations]

@@Zoomer3989 Which one do you mean? Reverse colored one?

[@wolfgangvan-uber6515]

Hey can you also please make a video about the punk driver who had a mohawk haircut and drove a muscle car? His was my favorite.

[@TufteMotorsport]

Sid Vacant. Named after Sid Vicious of Sex pistols and their song "Pretty vacant". It was also my favorite. The only car in the game looking like an actually car.

[@StudframeAnimations]

He’s my favorite too! I always chose Chip with Sid’s car. 😁 His car can be built in real life and therefor it’s on the list. Looking forward to it!

[@wolfgangvan-uber6515]

@@TufteMotorsport I tried to build it myself and think I did a good job, however all studs are in random colors.

[@wolfgangvan-uber6515]

@@StudframeAnimations Yeah, awesome! 🤩

[@TufteMotorsport]

@@StudframeAnimations I usually went with Barney, Sids car and with Glacia or Barneys blue colours.

[@TufteMotorsport]

Hi man! I send you a wall of text in your DM at Instagram. Lol. It was just an idea I have had for 23 years and wanted to share.

[@StudframeAnimations]

Really? I did not receive it yet. Maybe it comes in later. 😁

[@TufteMotorsport]

@@StudframeAnimations I tried to send it again now. It is most likely in your "message request" or what it is called in english :P

@@TufteMotorsport I don’t see it there either. Think my Instagram is acting up or something. You can post it here if you want. 😁

[@TufteMotorsport]

@@StudframeAnimations Hello again! MT bil and motorsport from YT here :) Thanks again for the great content. It means alot to me to have oldschool Lego content to look forward to again. It is only so many ways you can interact with an old game that is hard to mod. especially since RRU became partly defunct. Your videos in HD and VR just hits me like the dish hit the reviever in rataoile. I have a few ideas I have had for 20+ years now and I wondered if it was alright for you if I sent you them here when I remember them? Worldbuilding and atmosphere has always been something that has deeply facinated me, and I feel you hit the nail on the head in your videos. Most of the ideas are pretty short and are centered around a gag or location, but I have a really grand one too. Perhaps too big and too niche.. But here it goes: It is VR. We are in a helicopter with Dr Kilroy, Johnny Thunder and Pippin Reed. An obvious refference to Jurassic park. ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/rp-QfXhuntyNgM0&ab_channel=ScreenThemes kzbin.info/www/bejne/bXvYcq18p9djjsU&ab_channel=4KClipsAndTrailers ) An island appears and we fly towards it. It is an island spliced together from several setpieces from Lego Island 2. The village with dinosaurs at the end of the Adventurers island chapter, Mr Hates camp, the gate at the end of Pepper T rex run, the dessert filled with dino skeletons on the way to the sea plane when you walk in freeroam. And also parts from Lego racers 2 Dino island. Dinos roaming around, walking in packs and some of the great setpieces of that map. (The easter island heads village could be merged with the LI2 village) and to top it all off in mye dreamworld: Parts and atmopshere from Amazon adventure valley. (The temple, the bridge with the waterfall leading into the cave with the great ape face carved into it. The very structure is also in LI2 when you fly the biplane) You enjoy your trip down memory lane as you spot poachers. Baron Von Barron is at it again! You spot him chasing a stegosaur with the 5955 All terrain trapper. He spots us and launches the web at us, disabeling the helicopters rotors and we fall towards the ground. Fade to black. You wake up as Pippin takes your arm and pulls you up. You must now do a treck towards the 5987 Dino research camp to use the satelite dish there to signal for help. You now experience the same island you saw from the air, but now from ground level. Everything seems much much bigger. The atmosphere are darker. the trees hides the sun. Not unlike the ambience from Dark forrest dash. After a long trek trough the game islands you arrive at the research camp. Johnny walks in, calls for emergency and when a T rex shows up. The abbanadoned research camp became a nesting ground after the crew left, and mommy is very angry over the adventurers proximity to her infant. The T rex has you cornered and just as you think you're done Mike throws down a rope from the 5956 Expedition Balloon. He heard Johnnys call. Just as the t rex is about to bite you hold as tight as you can and Mike turns on the gas, lifting you straigth up and away from the t rex. The t rex shakes its head in disbelief and turns its focus to the infant, rubbing its snout to it to groom. Johnny thanks Mike and the team for the help but states "After carefull considuration I've decided not to endorse this trip." Dr Kilroy: "So has I." You zoom out of POV as the blimp flies away while a pack of pteranodons calmly fly near it, into the sunset. Fade to black. So this is an idea I have had since I 9 years old.. Jurassic park and Lego was my home away from home and I would spend hours upon hous there. The "script" is maybe not that interesting, but I wanted to share it with you. Best regards, Marius.

[@StudframeAnimations]

@@TufteMotorsport That’s an awesome script! I really like the idea of experiencing the official sets through a story that connects them all. I might do something with that idea. It may not follow the script you’ve made, but I will keep it in mind. Thank you for writing this. 😁

[@minirop]

Damn! last time I played that game, it was still the 90's, I think I need to change that. With Mattkc doing a decomp of LEGO Island, why nobody started on LEGO racers? (I would do it if I didn't have other decomp projects in the oven 🥲)

[@StudframeAnimations]

The game is really basic by todays standard, but it has a lot of character. Building your own track is still loads of fun! 😁 What is a decomp project? Are you extracting assets from the game? Or something else?

[@NEEDbacon]

@@StudframeAnimations It's a decompilation of the code for LEGO Island, basically breaking it down to it's bare bones to know how it ticks. Of course, there's a lot more reason to do that with Lego Island (the look being tied to FPS which doesn't play so nice on modern equipment, and MattKC added in higher quality version of the music too which he covered in a video). I think the reason why LEGO Racers hasn't been decompiled is cause it still works fine today and probably isn't all that much under the hood (pardon the pun) that isn't already known.

[@StudframeAnimations]

@@NEEDbacon Ahh that makes sense! Yeah LEGO Racers is one of the few LEGO that runs on modern hardware without any modifications. I can’t recall any problems during gameplay. LEGO Xtreme Stunts on the other hand… 😜

[@soifon7000]

It came out in 2000.
