Picture Post & Commentary

@nabo: Compared to the Club it replaces, it is actually sized down quite a bit.

 

@Hoku: I'll put YOU ingame.

 

@Puma: Yes. And more extras might be added, but I know I'll be making the wheel texture myself. So it'll be as grungy as everything else. Awesome locomotive, by the way.

 

@Pinky: That is awesome. I want one.

[[DRuG]NikT]

@pinky - ohmy gawt that is looking awesome.

 

@rox Sorry to have to be the one that pointed out the sticker mate - but it's better you knew before release, eh? The model fits perfectly in game - SA stylez for the win!

 

@puma needs to be raised on the y axis - maybe just highlight the model and raise it a bit? Looking fantastic, none-the-less - you should have those carriages with the bars in the windows that they often have on scenic locomotives, so people can sit in the windows with their legs hanging out? They have one like that in Australia called "Puffing Billy"... I remember sitting in the window as a child.

Speaking of bodymaps:

 

 

Have to remap the lower nose at it seems to have got messed up a little.

I better get cracking on the interior and bays now.

Looking great,

Can you do the VTOL doors on the front like this?

Sorry for the biggish pics, i don't think i can use thumbnails with photobucket...

All my VTOL doors work, unlike your ripped BF2 one.

 

Older pic during mapping process: VTOL doors and nozzle work independently of the gear doors so it doesn't matter whether the wheels are up or down. Front two doors operate from the original nozzle axis and rear ones, well that would be telling.

 

I was going to do a conversion of the BF2 F35B myself but prefer to go the scratch route as it's more rewarding when complete.

I decided to ditch the front lower VTOL doors as there isn't enough axis to make them work convincingly, I could make a two model hybrid if I wanted but that would be a pain in the arse to install. Currently only the Hydra model needs installed and the Cleo code, which will probably be incorporated into the Gostown SCM later.

I am replacing the bottom doors with vents and will move the exhaust jets so the flames pass through the vents when in VTOL mode, it's all thought out and tested.

 

Nice instruments bye the way.

@ javi13: Link? That hydra replacement looks so awesome! Never seen it before!

If you own Battlefield2, you have.

If it isn't coded and/or using multiple models it won't work too well.

And if I never use planes in that game ...

 

I also knew it was from BF2 (I actually read the post(s) before me!) but I just wondered where you could download the mod. (That's why; I've never seen it before).

...SA stylez for the win!

Hell yea!

 

 

 

I call him "Brilliant" (textures are just preview-mapped)

I call her, "Manana 4door" . It's a really good car, kinda small to be a 4 door car though, but it's a really good design and model .

[Picolini]

@RoxRox, nice as usual

 

@pinky, the plane is looking excellent! Keep it coming man, and if you need a beta tester, you know where to go

 

As for the F-35... I started a conversion of it, but I was never satisfied by the VTOL animation set up... everything just looked sh*tty or cheap. I spent a lot of time on it too... now it's just sitting in a folder getting dusty

[RoxRox]

 

Soon.

Interesting Veedub. The reflections are whacked out on the side though. How did you manage that "effect"?

Hy! I am going to open a ShowRoom topic. And for that I made a little haus

Edited March 16, 2008 by Hegedus.Roberto

[Marfi]

argh, spent all my day to texturing and smoothing

 

[Hegedus.Roberto]

WoW! The Polaris V8! Nice work! Only bad thing that the dirth not normal is. His just stop so. Down is dark from dirth and than...over all is clear. Try to fix that

[Marfi]

Ok, I will try but I have problem, I imported it into Zmod2, and I had to reset axis, car became dark so i calculated normals, then that thing appeared, like flat shading in Zmod1

 

anyone know how to fix it ?

[JostVice]

Hey there, some progress:

 

 

I need some help here, the back looks kinda boring to me

[Cursed]

That 4X4 is finally coming to life Jost_vice. I didn't think it was going to look very good until I saw the textures.

[CHILLI]

add a rollcage or a soft roof ^^ I think that will make it. or rear seats. but you dont have to make rear doors and passenger dummys. try that

No, add a machine gun turret and a couple of ammo boxes

 

Also can you make the wheels a bit bigger? It looks like a lowrider.

[buchsi]

maybe something like that...

 

@Rox: Nice work. Looks nice with the graphic effects.

 

@Marfi: Great conversion. Looks even better than the original one.

 

@Roberto: Looks good. Are that your renders?

The Status of my Passat...

 

[AzO]

Passat looks great, Mallorca. Really lovely .

 

If only this ended up replacing Taxi in SA .

[Burner]

That Passat looks fantatstic. The wheels are excellently modeled, I'd never add that much detail heh. How many polys is that?

 

Marfi: I like the ads below your pics

[Gouveia]

 

Soon.

OH... MY... GOD...

[FullMetal]

@ Burner: Do I hear some fapfapfap-ing?

 

@ Marfi: The polaris v8 looks great! I can't wait to see it ingame!

 

@ RoxRox: Love the bumper stickers

[Marfi]

fullmetal - you dont have to wait

 

[CHILLI]

hello hello! as you know I havent been doing much on the forums than wheels... well... it looks like it's changing! in my wheels topic in the showroom part I've been posting pics of my wheels... but the thing is! I've started working on THIS!

I rendered it in google sketchup with a plugin called podium. just to get the shapes look better on the picture. what do you think? more updates of this will come in my wheels topic. if a moderator feels for it, he/she can rename my topic to "[WIP] Dragon"

and the description text "a work in sketchup" or something like that. please tell me what you think! more info in my topic, as I said before.

[|GTA Mallorca|]

Thx azo and burner !

 

The Polycount is around 29k Triangles...

 

Im workin on the rear...
