I have to agree with Pauloso. Remington is a good name for it since the original in SA is similar.

 

yep , i agree , Remington is good name

[Honker1944]

Remington since it appeared in 3D era and fits car perfectly.

[Speccy]

Remington it is then.

Can't wait to play this mod!!!

Checking in with another update.

 

I've done some work on the wheels I was preparing for SoV.

 

I recreated wheel_sport from my previous attempt, this time replacing the 3d spokes (which were too high-poly) with a texture. It looks much better now. I've also improved wheel_classic so now it is a much more accurate replica of the original low-poly wheel. Finally, I've made a new wheel_alloy, which is still a work in progress. I didn't change anything for wheel_rim as it was pretty much flawless.

 

These wheels are much better than the ones I've shown you in the past and I'll surely post some screens of them soon!

Is there any information on a release date, or how much work there is left on this mod, if it's still alive? Thanks

Just read previous page,its like 5% to do yet,mod is alive as you can see

6/10 wheels finished

I tried to keep the low poly look. Each wheel is around 300-350 polygons. I've made custom textures in 128x128. Here's a Wireframe

[TheMadeMan]

Are those textures scratch made? or did you take it from somewhere?

[Speccy]

The appropriate term would be custom-made. The textures on the rims cannot be found anywhere as I've created them, but not from scratch. I spent a lot of time on Google images and sometimes Ebay, finding source images and then editing them. Some textures remain similar to their source images, while others only share a pattern and are almost entirely made from scratch. To give you a comparison with the final result, here is the source image I used for wheel_saloon.

 

 

On the other hand, wheel_alloy in the game looks very similar to the image that I based it on.

 

 

The texture for the controversial wheel_sport was obtained by taking a screenshot of the wheel profile directly in Zmodeler when it still had the spokes as 3d components of the model.

 

You can kind of catch my drift.

[Blue]

Neat!

[TheMadeMan]

Just great!

[JD_225]

Well... Remington is good name too (but i prefer Buccaneer)

and i have a question, are you use MVL to add them or replace them ???

It is said numerous times that most of the new vehicles will replace the old ones.

And it was also said, that replacing is intended, not because, they don't know how to add new cars. (I was one of the many people asking the same question )

Better than the "Xbox wheels"

[The Rockstar Gamer 108]

I have a small idea. Make it modern, and add some VCS feels to it.

They were not ready for such feels of being a real human bean...

[The Rockstar Gamer 108]

^Better than being buzztd n goin' 4 2nd trial. I still stick to my point.

We're already going for the "Amazing-Cool-Hot-Modern" feels. If you're saying to make it modern and add VCS feels, you actually mean downgrading the feels to "A Bit Modern" as they felt in 1984 (X=4).

 

Try to make it a bit Modern.

Si:

1984 - A Bit Modern

1986 - Neutral

198X - Amazing-Cool-Hot-Modern

But BEGINit set parameter X=7 so the feels must correspond to 1987 and they will be a lot more intense than in VCS where X=4 as 7>4.

 

I appreciate the conversation Dlze

[turbocharger]

Very thorough and thought-provoking conversation it was.

[Braindawg]

 

the Softtail Harley is coming along nicely. Didn't really have much time to work on it since I've started working at a new job. I'll be able to finish both bikes by the end of next month (hopefully) lol

 

keep in mind it's still missing lots of details and parts, and i will most likely remove some of these parts, like the fork, since I took parts from the San Andreas Freeway variant for reference and base-use.

[turbocharger]

That looks so damn good! I legit can't wait to see/hear it purr ingame.

[universetwisters]

I just pray that the windshield is either removed or is just an extra. Windshields on Harley-esque bikes look weird as f*ck (unless it's an Electra Glide).

[Speccy]

to me personally, that windshield looks very good on the model. Another reason why I wouldn't remove it is that it adds a unique feature to the bike, something that instantly says "hey, I'm not a Freeway."

 

I have some great news for you guys. First, I wanted to let you guys know that Kalvin granted us permission to include an alternative version of his Beta Diaz Mansion in the mod. Go check it out in the maps section - it's awesome and available for download.

 

 

 

I know a quite few of you don't like to read and then ask questions after scrolling through the images and ignoring the entire text. I'll say it again:

 

THIS IS KALVIN's WORK, not mine.

 

 

 

 

Now, I've also done something extraordinary. I've given a shot at making a motorbike and this is what I managed to produce in just over 3 hours of messing with the PCJ-600. That's the last bit of good news

 

[turbocharger]

I'm glad Kalvin's work will be used, changes are always welcome, as an eye candy.

The bike looks awesome, I love it! I wonder what will you call it.

Also, I agree about the windshield on braindawg's bike, it looks pretty dope. That's what makes it look so unique imho.

I wasn't really paying attention to it as I was tired,just figured it was an okay-ish meme for what I was trying to do.

 

 

Roast me to death for not knowing how to use the 'Creepy Condescending Wodka' meme.
