Cars NFS Tournament Class B 1.6

[AlleyViper]

Btw, the latest soundbank from AmplifiedNL which is included on the ZR-1s has an issue that can cause a lot of crackling/popping (there was another about it on its own thread) vs some AI grids. I can reproduce it by setting a 15 AI car grid of ZR-1s on Okayama Piper and starting from last. Just rev the engine on Neutral before green light and it should be noticeable, it can then remain during the rest of the race being more noticeable when braking into corners driving near the pack, or come and go if you change cameras. The older version (first release dated 2018-10-22) doesn't seem to cause it (or at least its less noticeable), but might not sound as good under regular conditions.

That's a nice garage map, what is it? showroom map?

Here's a nice shot of it:

This is how it looks now:

They need more adjustments I think, but they already look better even in different light conditions

These look a bit plain too, but maybe that's intended?

There's no rush, really!

Thanks, yea I already tuned it a bit. I think the biggest problem is when the sun is at low angle and shines directly at the wheel, making it very bright -- perhaps the specularExp should be greater?

Ideally, I would like to achieve this result:

Yeah, the Dymag wheels are pretty plain... maybe a bit more reflections...

I still haven't gone through the physics for my one last check, I'll keep holding off until this is sorted. There's no update pending until I sign off on my bits, so don't panic.

 

[Some1]

I think its better now, no? Very hard to achieve the exact look as in the photo... I think some effects are missing in CSP/AC for that.

Also, added 3d wheel nuts

 

[A3DR]

Yeah it's a bit tricky to get a proper polished material, not sure if it can be achieved 100%. I've messed with them a bit more:

I guess it's close to your settings on the last pics now. Good call on the nut holes, as much as I appreciate the "old school" ways, it was odd looking compared to the rest of the car.

What's the difference between isAdditive=1 and isAdditive=2?
Also, what does sunSpecular actually do?

I would say it looks a whole lot better, looks like metal alright. You could say it lost its shine over time

The additive value adds or subtracts some sort of falloff reflection, try it for yourself on different surfaces and you'll see the difference.
the sunSpecular is what gives an additional spec over the main one, is what the paint shader uses for that metallic effect.

Yes it's called "big shop" but I don't remember where I got it.

Any chance for template of C4? I wanna do a Gran Sport version

@Dr. Death I had it in an archive among other showrooms, I guess I got it linked from here. (not the RD resource, but the download link on its description)

Hey, just a small thing, but the G27 LEDs go ballistic on the viper, ramping up at low rpms, and flashing nonstop while in the powerband. Is there any way to fix that but keep the LEDs?

At least from my end, I have no idea what could cause that.

Check whether you are using vanilla support for Logitech LEDs or content manager/csp

Hi guys,

Noticed that the objects brakes.ini refers to as discs for the Viper's glow graphics are wrong:

currently:
[DISCS_GRAPHICS]
DISC_LF=GEO_DISC_LF_002
DISC_RF=GEO_DISC_RF_002
DISC_LR=GEO_DISC_LR_002
DISC_RR=GEO_DISC_RR_002

correct ones are:
[DISCS_GRAPHICS]
DISC_LF=Cylinder001_SUB1
DISC_RF=Cylinder014_SUB1
DISC_LR=Cylinder002_SUB1
DISC_RR=Cylinder016_SUB1

 

[DeoraTwo]

Found the culprit of the weird led flashing on the viper. The Led's are set to start at 1800 and end at 2500. This doesn't have much to do with vanilla support I don't think.
