Todo, backfaces, shader/texture tweaks, and bugs.

 

[andrevr]

Small, non-blocking error when launching the '58 to drive, from CM.
Texture "MAT_BODY_SET_1_AO.DDS is missing from "content/cars/lotus_16_58/lotus_16_B.kn5"

Comment as requested.
Quite simple really. When the dust has settled, there shall be only one.
Even at this "waddya think?" stage, *much* better than any previous.

Front suspension has realistic caster, rear suspension works a treat, both ito feel, and visually. That wasn't easy to check out, because...

Camera positions need to be on the to-do list

Oil temp gauge code missing in ext_config.ini for the '59.

Tyres are *on* the border for me, but I understand the "1958 rubber tech" truth, and the "gamers want to feel like heroes, so slippy is king" imperative, so, just an observation.

Audio pitch is too low, to my ear. 6k RPM sounds like 4k to me.
I saw you pitched it down to 0.9, I went the other way and 1.2 sounds more like it.
YMMV, of course.

All in, top, top work, sir.

GzeroD updated Lotus 16 with a new update entry:

'59 toe '58 strut

Corrected the rear toe on the '59
The '58 has an attempt to prevent the rear strut from collapsing.

Incoming: Data replacement/duplication to bring the Kunos' Maserati 250Fs into harmony. NOT BOP. But at least oranges and oranges now.

Left a debug option on, perhaps? 1958 model.

Also, the driver shifting animation is too slow.

 

[Stones]

Shift animation is very slow. Also, the flames aren't lined up with the exhaust. Position file attached.

Yep... The lightsabers from Star Wars also appear to me...

 

[Mark DENNY]

What's up with the shift animation ? way to slow, can this be sped up a bit please.

Glad to see that the lightsabers are gone... The smoke keeps way deviated from the exhaust in the three cars, but it's easy to fix with Content Manager.

Instructions for newbies like me: First unpack "data.acd" if data are packed (thanks solrider666 for the aclaration), then open the car in "Showroom CM", click in "Car Params" (the little car logo up right), "Flames" (in Physics section), then press the "T" in keyboard to open the orb (named "Flame_0") and start to move (with the orb) the red... arrow, piramid with tail? that represents the direction where the smoke will be exhausted. When done, click "Save moved points", repack data folder and... go race!

You must unpack "data.acd" first otherwise the flame position wont save, the only thing that will save is the shadow. flame.ini is in the data folder

That's right, good note. I didn't realize because in this case, the data folder of these Lotus 16 comes uncompressed... I will correct my previous message. Thanks!
