AC6 is still being updated and is known to be the most notable chassis in the Roblox automotive community.įast forward to late 2010s, many advanced chassis were made that rendered the OpenChassis obsolete. Note the chassis is constructed by simple Roblox Studio parts and VehicleSeat.Īn OpenChassis 3.2 with standard AWD shown in Roblox Studio.Īn example of A-Chassis 6 shown in Roblox Studio. At this point, users could finally create and import much more realistic car models.Ī concept of a classic automobile chassis shown in a YouTube video. Users could now import and export Roblox models and 3D models to Roblox Studio and any 3D software. On May 13, 2014, Roblox released OBJ Exporter. It served as a replacement for VehicleSeat and featured virtually realistic driving physics, a realistic steering radius (rather than a chassis using all four wheels to turn 360 degrees), and other advanced features that made VehicleSeat obsolete. It wasn't until October 9th 2012 when developer Zephyred first released a more advanced chassis family the OpenChassis.
Since OBJ and 3D graphics importing wasn't a feature on Roblox as yet, a majority of cars were built by bricks and parts. Although it featured unrealistic and clunky physics, it was one of the most advanced features of Roblox at the time and helped provide an available chassis for slot creators and Roblox automotive companies. The VehicleSeat was virtually the only control system available on Roblox for some time. Slot cars first surfaced the Roblox community around 2009, when Roblox first introduced the VehicleSeat to Roblox Studio. (Picture was most likely taken around the late 2000s or early 2010s.)
Slots can either be shared publicly for other users to use and copy or made for private use as well, depending on the owner and creator of the slot.Īn RX-7 FC3S OBJ slot shown in Roblox Studio.Ī Lancia Stratos made by an individual using Blender.Īn example of an old slot car made with Roblox bricks and parts. Users can make slots for fun or to be sold to other users. A functional slot must include a chassis and a car body of any sort, which can either be built with bricks and parts in Studio, using OBJ models imported from other sources, or user-made models imported from 3D graphics software, such as most notable software Blender. Slot cars have unique visuals and stats/tuning depending on the owner's preference.
Note that the body is an imported OBJ model. A web page example of a modern, user-made private slot.
