Early WIP

I don't request much but can we get a 73 IROC set?

 

[Michael Hornbuckle]

I was thinking about that, might not be out of my skillset...I will try to make the skins the same as they are on the IROC in P&G

Man, this thing is a breeze to skin. Also, check out the fun thing the 917/30 does if you press 4 and 5 in the showroom:

I wish they'd let us remap those keys, I'm left out as a tenkeyless user :/

 

[BDA]

The side stripes aren't perfect but they're the best I can do. Trying to line them up over all those seams was making me slightly insane.

Pro tip: paste a UV test pattern (this http://static.flickr.com/79/280666943_97fc34b1f1_o.jpg is the one I use cause it was the top google result) onto the panels of interest, set it to blend at 50% on top of your skin, then take a screenshot ingame. Then you can see where the edges of the panels actually are (since usually the stuff folding under the edge of the seam is a bit vague), and where to move the stripes to. Especially useful if the scale isn't quite consistent on the UV unwrap.

 

[BDA]

The edges themselves weren't really the problem (the 917 has consistent scaling and a sane layout, which is how you can tell it was originally a mod car rather than a Kunos original), it's just that the door, the tailpiece, the lower sidepod and the bit between the door and the tailpiece are all separate pieces and the stripe goes across all four of them. Thank god for Content Manager's lightweight showroom so I could nudge->save->check in two seconds instead of 30.

WIP IROC Series

 

[Burke Wells]

Very nice, Michael. That's great that you're doing those. Any chance we can get those wheels in something lighter than the default black? I don't know enough about skinning to know if it's possible or not. Just curious.

 

[Michael Hornbuckle]

Once I find out the file name I will likely make them silver/grey, but they aren't the same rims that the actual IROC used.

RIM_base if i remember correctly

 

[Michael Hornbuckle]

Rim_base works, but the template Kunos included isn't correct at all.

 

[Michael Hornbuckle]

Kunos mistakenly included the template for the carrera s rims in the rsr folder; once Zelimper sends me the correct template I will try to make the rims look closer to what the IROC used.

 

[BDA]

Whoever UV mapped that front bumper: Thank you. Thank you very much.

 

[BDA]

I've got a bit of a problem now. There should be contingency stickers on that rear quarter window but they don't seem to be skinnable in any practical way. Do I just leave them off or stick them somewhere else?

 

[AccAkut]

trying my hands at this, wish me luck...

 

[horto45]

Does anybody else experience issues with the template of the Cayman GT4 Clubsport?
all colors appear much brighter than the selected color while painting and ingame, any idea how to fix this?

 

[formulaHEINE]

The AO layer in the template isn't set to multiply and has a opacity of 85%.
Set the layer to multiply and adjust the opacity level to your liking (85 - 100 %).

Works, thanks
