KS Porsche 917K rim colours and template

[Graham Botha]

Hi all,
I am in the process of looking to do a new skin for the 917K which requires the rim color to be changed from black to gold. Can anyone assist with a template fro the rims on this car? Also how can one simulate reflective Gold on the body as well as the rims?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

I did a little of investigation (pretty much stripped the 3D down to the bone, checked textures, etc.) and it seems that the black material is locked. That is, it doesn't receive any ambient light at all. So, whatever color you paint in that black spot (even in the reflection map) it always comes out black. Also, the rest of the rim becomes very dark aswell.
The alternative is to change the file "rough_black_D.dds" but this also changes the black interior in the headlights.

Try with these files:

Hi, Thanks a stack. I'll give the files a go and see what I can get done
