Project CARS Modding Questions & WIP

[wolfsburg]

This is my very first attempt to convert a Shift2 car to pCars.
It´s far away from being finished. The physics seem to work, but there are problems with textures and materials.
I´ve uploaded it and maybe someone can help me, finish it or tell me, what to do next.
Thanks!!

Hi Jerec, I checked the car and the main reason for not work are the physics, use others and it will load the race, it's a mod car and it lacks of some uv maps and the. Mtx files aren't pointing to .dds files that's why some textures don't work... Take better a s2u original car...

 

[Jerec]

Ok, I will try another car. Maybe the Saleen S7R or Maserati MC12. I think both are original Shift2U cars. (I´ve so many mod cars for Shift2U).
As soon as I have done it, I will upload it. Would be great, if you could help me or finish it.

Saleen is a mod car. And I'm working on the MC12 for Machine Dojo Modding Team

There were 2 people working on a 787b, can they please tell us how the process is going? Please.

I also tried the MC12. It shows up in the showroom, but when selecting it in the menu, the loading screen appears and after about 10 seconds it crashes to the desktop. Don´t know what I made wrong. Maybe I can upload the file an somebody of you could have a look on it.

@LamboMantisMan When is the next car ready? The Murcielago was awesome, we´re all waiting for the next GT1 beasts.

Next car to be released will be the Nissan GT-R GT1, and is pretty much ready!

For sure that your answer is here:

Glass bmts probably it's the problem, if you're using working physics...
Move all suspicious Bmt to another folder to discard what one is giving you the crash...

ps: the m6 ?!?!?

Chances are high it's one of the cars in the game my guess as it's #3, hasn't been confirmed nor denied yet

As a RaceDepartment exclusive, I can confirm that yes, car #3 is the BMW M6 GT3

...and the Maserati MC12? Really look Forward this car.

Yesterday noticed some changes on the JDougNY public folder, Thanks Friend without your efforts this thread would not be possible...

I also found an online editor that converts little endian to float and viceversa, I don't know if there's something better...

For other things I use HXD.

Is anyone who want to convert this car from Shift 2 to pCars? Please.

 

[XxRaphaThunderXx]

If I knew how to convert cars from shift 2 unleashed to project cars, I would have done it, but it's very complex. I've tried converting once but the texture of the car got bugged , because I do not know how to make the texture appear in the game.

I've been gone for some time. One reason is that I needed a break. The other is due to my health...been going to chemotherapy twice a week since the beginning of October 2016 and I'm still going for chemo treatments.
I see a lot of old P.M.'s in my inbox, but I don't think I'll read or respond to them, due to their age. Also, I'm not sure how active I will be.

Well, I was messing around with a Ferrari F430 Challenge GT3 and since I completed it, I thought I'd share it. The poly counts are ok-ish...just don't zoom in on the rear tail lights or the exhaust pipes.

Hi, I have some problems after editing mebs and doing all that I know...

I don't know if the problem with the badges is the. Mtx file(it has 2 layers inside)or that I have to redo the uv mapping with other shader, no idea of doing that, it has 6 textures control, specular, normal and diffuse and the 2 for the paint, also I have a glitch on the bonnet(this one comes from the interior loda) and also the glass for the headlights that are on the windows meb don't appear... In zmodeler it appears right.
It has to look like the last image...
If it's very hard I will move to other car...
Thanks...
