The "What Are You Working On?" Thread

Finally recorded a video of this things the the Nords - really scruffy driving, but you get a sense of how this thing drives. You get to see the dash displays in action though, turns out they don't show in replays so had to record it live.

Bit of a moment at Kesselchen (around 4:08) where I clipped the kerb, overcorrected, and somehow kept it out of the barriers

Anyway it was around a 7:25, I'm sure a clean lap would shave off 5s at least, and a quicker driver would probably be able to take off 10s over that.

I'm working on Gulf Oil pack for the 917K. Including #1-2, 9-10 (Brands Hatch 1000), 20-21. If anyone wants to keep working on the 917k field, I'd recommend the Martini or the already-existing 23 car with logos added to it.

I'm working on all 11 skins of chassis 917-021, those are the most well-known skins of it:

I have a whole book only about this chassis with lots of reference material and already did research on logos.

The 917K 1970 #23 Le Mans winner is on my list, as i did it for P4/5c. maybe Gulf pack, too.

Kudos to Kunos, both the 3D model and template of the 917 are accurate af. Look how a photo of a scale model aligns perfectly with the template

I forgot the author's name, I remember following his 917k work from the beginning until it all went dark earlier in the year, likely when the details of the change in ownership were being set (or he gave up?). It's outstanding.

the chap that modelled the 917k did our ts020 as well

its outstanding work.

I think guys nickname was "Fiesling". I've been going crazy over lack of news. It was difficult

The tip is Ok, other piece of UV takes care of it. You see just side part UV island here.

Just asked him, he says that it's not his model but Kunos built one theirselves.

Does anybody know what it says above Bosch? I could only find a reference close enough on this model.

Some progress on NJMP. Trees are the main thing I am working on now.

Still some color mismatch between inside and outside track but that is still a WIP.

Phew, made excellent progress on the liveries (all done, not making Brands Hatch because it would just litter the game with Gulf Oil skins). Not done yet as I am doing the Porsche badge by hand so it's not some poor quality, low resolution thing, and it's taking a while.

Gergo Panker · Dec 21, 2016

A heads-up, the 962C short tail model and template have been updated so the problem at the rear with asymmetrical liveries should be eliminated. Even previously, the AO had enough padding so technically you shouldn't have to update your skins, especially if you made them in 4k. However, you might wanna update your custom RGB map files (if anyone tweaked it) if you exported them in 512x512 with the AO from the new template.

In the 917k template the wireframe is a slightly older version just behind the front radiator on the bonnet where most of the front racing numbers are, so it'll not align perfectly. The UV was fixed in the last minute and I didn't have a chance to update the template, I hope you can work around it for now. (Alternatively, you can use Content Manager to export the correct wireframe).

Looking good to me. Green wireframe is from content managner and black beneath from template.

Here is a first attempt on the 1970 Le Mans winner.

Sadly the UV of engine cover isn't ideal where the GoodYear logo is.
Stripes and numbers are yet based on the PP3 skin.

And that is all for today, Rogue One in the cinema is next on the list.

Panty, whère is the mapping for the inner walls of the engine bay area? The 22 car from 1970 is orange all over that area but the walls get the main color of the car.

Try the long part at the top of the template.
