Back in August 2002 the Back to the Future trilogy was released here in Australia on DVD, and since these movies are old faves of mine I grabbed a copy.
One of the extras on the DVD was all concept art etc of the DeLorean, and there were some basic blueprints included. That was enough to give the basic shape of the car, so I started making a 3D model of it.
But for whatever reason I stopped. I don't remember why, maybe I was abducted by ferrets and had my memory erased, or maybe I just thought of something I'd rather do.
Anyway for some reason the BTTF DVDs weren't released in the US til November or something. And once they were released I started getting requests for a screensaver. So after all the Christmas stuff was over with I blew the dust off the half finished model and decided to finish it off. And here it is!
It's basically just got the time traveling DeLorean driving around an endless car park (it was meant to be the Twin/Lone Pines Mall car park but I haven't had time to make it any more detailed). Randomly the car will speed up to 88mph and go thru time.
I've sat and watched this thing for hours, and I think it's pretty nifty. Dr.Emmet Brown and Marty McFly would be proud!
If you're sick of watching you can activate the Game Mode and take control of the car yourself. There's not much to it, you just drive around, and if you drive fast enough you'll go thru time.
This thing isn't perfect, but I've never seen anything like it before. (All I've been able to find BTTF-wise is slideshow yawnfests) So if you find anything better, use it. Complaining about free software leads to unfortunate voodoo curses being put on you.
