First off, I added a new Aerogyre to the game (the Finnean Motor Works Phantom), along with a new rigged, textured and semi-animated driver, Behrendt Healy. I made this the default vehicle for the player right now, although I haven't adjusted any handling characteristics yet, so it drives the same as the other two vehicles.

New Aerogyre

Along the way, I embiggened all the vehicles and riders to 150 percent, which helps them fit the scale of the terrain much better.

The last thing I did was based on a great suggestion I read somewhere, which was to build a pause function into the game with some enhanced screencap functionality. I wish I could remember who suggested it so I could give them credit- if you have any idea, please comment with a link. I now have a way to stop the game and swing the camera around, as well as changing the camera's target on the fly. This allows me to compose and grab much more interesting stills without having to hover so much over the "Fn/Prt Sc" keys.

Turnaround screencaps

As always, the latest working version of the game is on my development blog. Please stop by- right now more people have claimed to have spotted the Loch Ness Monster in the last few months than have looked at my blog*.
