SilentSoul21 3,050 Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 (edited) I can't hardly wait to see the Übermacht Zion Classic LM in action! Edited May 24, 2018 by SilentSoul21 Thundersmacker 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Thundersmacker 6,731 Posted May 31, 2018 Author Share Posted May 31, 2018 (edited) Since GTAForums is back with a new look, there has been more progress on the Zion LM! The front is all done. It almost perfectly matches SilentSoul21's sketch, which is the plan. Still, there is plenty more left to go. Stay tuned!

Well... The Zion LM is based off of the BMW CSL from CSR Classics, so yes I'm technically converting cars from other games. And I do have plans to make a stock Zion Classic, but I need to finish the LM first. And I have another project after the LM that I want to get done before I make the stock Zion.

Derrick Keno 264 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Wow, I am quite surprised you are making a BMW 3.0 lookalike. 😍 Seeing LC with lots of old cars would surely be amazing! Thundersmacker 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Thundersmacker 6,731 Posted June 5, 2018 Author Share Posted June 5, 2018 (edited) Now I'm starting on the rear of the Zion LM. I'm still following SilentSoul21's sketch as close as I can, and I'm really liking how it is coming out. Also a shout out to Dynamo from the Vanillaworks Discord server for making that sticker/badge/decal thing on the boot lid.

Thunders, I know you have a life besides modding, but if you could release a non-widebody kit of this good looking car, I would feel very grateful, man. Also, nice job. P.S. don't feel compelled to do it, if you release only the body kit version, I'll like it anyway. JoeVK 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Thundersmacker 6,731 Posted June 14, 2018 Author Share Posted June 14, 2018 (edited) The body for the Zion Classic LM is all done. Here's a cool spinning GIF to look at. Now before I continue with the interior and other inner details, I'd like to get the model UV mapped for liveries. Unfortunately, I'm going to be pretty swamped at work for a while and just don't have the time or patience to UV map the car. If anyone has experience with that and wants to do it please shoot me a PM on this forum or on Discord. For clarification, the model doesn't need to be mapped in ZM2. I can convert the model back to ZM2 format after it has been mapped, so if you only have experience with ZM3 that's fine. 1 hour ago, _F_ said: Every time I´m checking this topic, I´m hoping to see some updates on that van, but it´s been over 2 years already and still nothing Sorry, I'm not interested in doing that van at the moment.

Thundersmacker 6,731 Posted June 28, 2018 Author Share Posted June 28, 2018 Well I have a suprise for you guys. You may remember that I hinted at another German car that would be converted along with the Zion project. (just look at the post above) Here it is... That's right, the Vanillaworks Club GTR is coming to GTA IV! Soon you'll be able to enjoy the original hot hatch in Liberty City. And I also got the Zion Classic LM back from ThatOneHick. He UV mapped the whole thing for liveries, so progress will continue on that. Yay! DingoPachinko, Kiyone_Alien_Cop, Tuckyonald and 30 others 33 Link to post Share on other sites

unbid 5,287 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Glad to see that you're converting the Club that TG_Stig made! One problem, sadly. There's some kind of weird mesh indentation below the C-pillar line: IDK if it's because of the model itself or something else.

JoeVK 707 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 I was just about to point that out, but you beat me, @unbid. Can't wait! I'm not a huge VW fan (by that I mean Volkswagen, not VanillaWorks), but little cars like this and the Blista are fun in GTA. I'm also looking forward to driving the Zion like a lunatic.

The original model has that as well, it's something I noticed right when I got the model in Zmodeler. I don't think there is any way to remove it due to the way the mesh is, but I can try to see if I can fix it. Link to post Share on other sites
