Trial Mountian Monkey...Back!

[Joey D]

Well I noticed this as I was doing one of the races, so I thought I should photo drive the track and sure enough that monkey is back!

 

[beaneater]

nice, good eye!

 

[Joey D]

I figured that PD would sneak something into the game and it seemed logical that they would put the monkey back in it.

 

[Joey D]

BTW is this a repost? I haven't been able to find another thread about it.

 

[franz]

its repost .... sort of
someone used digital camera to take monkey shot in Japanese demo
about 3-4 months ago I think

 

[Joey D]

Ah I tried a search on it but came up with nothing so I figure I was the first, well damn someone beat me to it. I was all excited too.

Is there any way you could get a shot of the face of the monkey or is it always just the back? I could never find it in gt3 but the photomode really helps.

 

[Joey D]

I couldn't get it but if someone else wants to try go for it.

this was one of the first things i looked for when i went to trial mtn. cool stuff. too bad you cant do anything with him like 'unlock a super secret car if you can hit him with your car' or 'monkey driver in open top cars' i know they're wacky ideas but i'm just havin some fun

 

[bribri543]

Thanks for showing this, I could never find him
I always looked for him in that crazy tree tunnel.

 

[Joey D]

Ya he's a lot littler then in past GT's. I'm on a mission to find other hidden things in the game.

I'm just surprised no one has made a jest at the BMW 1 Series I was using .

Oh wait... That's not just your typical monkey - that's actually the guy who designed the new, improved competitor AI for GT4.

i looked yesterday for some odd reason when i was taking my R32 Golf around trial mountain and i didn't see it.

I see the term improved has a new definition now, .

HA 1Series omglolrofl

i have never seen the monkey either, after hearing about it when i joined GTP I even turned on GT3 specifically to find it, no luck though.

 

[CrackHoor]

Hey, I caught him a couple days ago!

The monkey knows where you live...

 

[Sky]

teh animal element!

 

[CSS]

Fun stuff!
I never knew there was a monkey in the game... or in any of the previous ones.

 

[Joey D]

But here is a question, why would a monkey be in what appears to be a European forest?

The monkeys don't live by your rules.

I found I wasn't able to properly zoom very close to that Trial Mountain monkey...

Maybe someone else can do better, but I think you push the bounds of the actual resolution of the model.


(Eventually I should be able to restore working hot links to personal copies of those images)
Instead I have made them attachments. FWIW.

 

[Tulok]

wow! never knew about Mr.monkey! Very cool, he looks pissed though. T_T its too bad, It nice to know PD wouldnt put a programmers face on the front though!
