The "What Are You Working On?" Thread

[CC]

how dare you ask about whether you can ask a question but i did several cars before but they arent worth talking about since it was such a long time ago and i realised if i wanted to be serious about being in a group as highly praised as VS id need to improve massively.

Was a simple question man , and twice now from your team got a negative disrespectful answer ,
I will just keep my mouth shut and concentrate on my own work , good luck with VS and all your projects

I guess people who work at an insane speed like that tend to get stressed out and snap easily. Let it slide and let's also slide some toyotas tonight. I'll cut my cardio workout short and be home by 8 pm uk time. You got 10 hours

This thread has turned really weird

yeah it should be renamed, "what are you stroking your own ego with".

hey I just wanted to let you guys know that you arent noticing me enough, NOTICE ME, NOTICE ME

In all seriousness though an ego war would probably be a good thing, competitiveness on both sides would bring out the best on both sides

 

[Fat-Alfie]

Yeah, but it kinda sours the mood

I'm not a big fan of over-inflated egos and narcissism. I much prefer the quietly confident type of modder that blows you away with their work, rather than their words (and chest-beating)

In all seriousness we need less egoism here.

(Not meaning you btw)

This oil overflow line on the transmission was bothering me, it just didn't look right. So now instead of being a single outer layer it's 3 separate objects.
Upper left is mocked up for demonstration purposes using the current texture, which I made half as opaque to compensate for there being 2 layers of mesh now. So it used to be more opaque but still the uniform thing. Lower right is how it looks now.
<-||-> |-> <-| <-||->
Tube cross-section looks like this.

Red - original object, outside mesh facing out. transparent true, less opaque texture, render Priority changed so it draws last (-2)
Black - copy of original object, outside mesh facing in. transparent true, more opaque texture, render Priority normal (0)
Blue - shrunken tube, mesh facing in. transparent false, less opaque texture, render Priority changed so it draws after actually solid objects (-1)

So it actually gets rendered blue first (makes center of tube transparent), then black (makes outer bits of tube opaque and skips the middle since that is closer to the camera), then red (covers both with the outer surface, which can pick up specular highlights and such)

It'd work even better if the fresnel effect was taken into account (translucency gets more opaque at steeper angles) but I couldn't find a shader that does that.

Messing around with skinning again:

 

[CobraCat]

Anyone working on any fictional group b skins for the 288 GTO ?

 

[Michael Hornbuckle]

Almost finished

i'm too late for the party.

Nowhere near done... the mapping on the 2015 Aura is kinda funky
I haven't tried the other 2 cars, I hope they're mapped better.
Anyways, I hope to have the entire 2017 DTM field done in time for the finale at Hockenheim.
