hi i searching information for one bug fix.

u can see the bug here in photo

https://imgur.com/BAAqBN9

so like u see car spoiler is in strange shade (spoiler is a tuning part) and every time i edit defoult or i create new with zmodeler i get the same efect with shades. for example if i dont remove defoult reflection effect from model i see it in game as fully chrome part. so if u know how to fix it please tell me.

in this forum or by writing an email [email protected] thanks a lot.

 

also all my created modificasions u can find >> here <<

Forgive me if I'm not on point here. But the difference in shading can be caused by either the Normals not being calculated well enough, the vertices have the diffuse color option enabled, or even the textures themselves.

 

It's best you have the normals calculated and have the Diffuse color disabled for the vertices. In Zmodeler, just right click, go to vertices, format, and untick 'Diffuse color' if it's enabled. Make sure 'Normals' is ticked.

in program looks everythink ok but in game still same problem

i even tryed to add carbonfiber texture and still same problem,

stock bumper looks good but tune bumpers and other parts added in transfender or other tune garage with that strange shade.

I wouldn't be using ZModeler if I were you. 3DS Max is better

for modeling i using cinema4d usualy but for exporting in dff i have to use zmodeler

cus my 3ds dont have that format right now

also 3ds like to crash it self in midle of work so this is the most reason why i use c4d

c4d i can leave for the week with open and not saved job cus c4d dont crash and ofc have same tools aas 3ds mayby more if we look in to plugins

You don't have to use 3ds Max for making the car and stuff. You can make a model in any 3d modeling software you want (Blender, Cinema4d etc). But 3ds max is the program with best renderware stuff support, so just export an fbx or a 3ds, import in 3ds Max, make any necessary material changes (aka standard material -> RWMaterial - aap's plugins)

My video shows how to deal with collision and stuff after a successful 3ds Max export:

so if i export model with 3ds i will not have shading problem on tuning add ons in tuning garages? or u not sure about that?

If you export with 3ds Max, you'll be exporting with plugins that have best support for GTA. That may fix your problem. If not, then we'll see what 3ds Max material editor has to say

ok i try it out if it helps. then i realise one hell of the elegy edit ever made ;D everyone wants that edit but untill i not fix the problem with tuning i dont realising it.

how it looks in stock u can see in elegy photo that was taken in c4d but u see only front

2jz under the hood, new interior new bumpers new rims also suspension (very simple coils). and real rocketbunny body kit on stock

and adapted to the new car shape tune bumpers that i have to fix.

Add _shiny to the name of the mesh, for example:

 

if your tuning part has the name: spl_a_l_b

Rename to: spl_a_l_b_shiny

 

Only in the name of the mesh, not of the dummy
