What's the problem exactly ?

The textures on the brakelights and front lights at the bottom are constantly flickering even with the game paused.

Time to dig deeper into blender since i gotta remap everything....

Damn it's gonna be a lot of work.

It helps a ton being a skinner and UV mapping your own models. I've actually learned quite a bit already and have found out the corner cutting techniques people use to UV Map some cars like 458 and why its a bitch to paint. Plus now I can fit a ton of parts onto one texture material

But i've got 3 questions.

1. Does anyone know the entire material list you can use for GTR2? It was on NoGrip but I never saved the list to a text document...
2. What should I be doing for the front grill/brake ducts and rear bumper vents because Idk if i should map it to the windows to have transparency or to my BODY2 texture.
3. Anybody have interior shots from the Mustang? I have to skin everything because the original textures arnt extractable.

Chassis like 85% remapped.

Here's your interior shots:

There's also the page of the team that used to race these, with rare photos and whatnot.

As far as mapping, how do you cope with exporting? Everytime I export in .3ds after mapping something, every material loses its transparency setting and must be set manually again. I have a couple of cars that are ready to go, but need to be mapped so that I can paint them and this is the only obstacle.

I export stuff out of blender as a .obj to open up in 3DSimEd which is where I then set all my materials. The major problem I have is smoothing the model to what it originally was. Like the brake ducts on the mustang were nicely smoothed and after exporting and bringing it back into 3dSim after fixes the smoothing is different and doesn't look as good.

That might just be because the model is too low res to begin with. Perhaps I'll have better luck with something made in the 21st century, rather than the 20th.

Looks at what just happens to be for sale:

Both chicanes are done (the 2nd one still needs tyrewall). I redid the first chicane to make it looking more like real one. Now my biggest concern is, how the hell I'm gonna make AI not to cause mayhem on first lap going through the chicane after the start

So for the body you can only have a max of 6 files then correct?

yes

Thanks for the latest patch

When it comes to paintable textures, yes. Other than that you can use how much you want.

Which model is that? It looks 1000 times better than the awkward squished 1997 one.

Its the PerfectDark SCC version. I used the same one with the different nose for the 1998 version. I didnt like SCCA's version.

This is the model of the old FIA GT 97 Mod, I just reworked it and improved the proportions a bit.

Speaking of editing proportions, I got to thinking that maybe we could better recreate Dick Greer's Oldsmobile if we take the Cup90 model and edit the proportions slightly so that it looks less like a stock car and more like a Trans Am car. It would basically mean making the car wider, making it slightly shorter, and giving the hood more of a slope. I couldnl try to see what I can do, but I still don't know how to actually get my models into the game. I just think that having an unchanged stock car would look a little silly on the grid.

Starting to take shape....

Looks great can't wait to see how it looks ingame

Really glad to see you've taken on this project Rico. Big fan of all your work.

Yes. Thank you for the new patch.
