i made this car in 2016, when I was 19. This is the first time the badging - a very mature nazi joke, poking fun at Mercedes-Benz' origins as a manufacturer - appears on screen. Going back and forth on whether or not I want to retexture it to remove that. http://rainbowdash.net/url/876094

@zeldatra Fun fact: You can find Nazi connections in almost every big German company's history that is old enough it existed during World War 2. Volkswagen, Siemens, Bosch, several steelworks...

@adiwan It’s to be expected, honestly. The US outlawed slavery long before most modern American companies got their start, and the ones that do go back that long are from New England which was less reliant on slave labor than other places, I’m sure if like Coca Cola existed in 1830 I’d be able to point at them and go “hey this company owned slaves”

@scribus Yup, thought about this too.
