The "What Are You Working On?" Thread

[LilSki]

Well, as it happens I have 8gb of memory. I do sometimes get some cuda errors as well. Did blender become any faster with more memory?

Doesn't get faster per say but can handle much more overall. With tracks you load lots of textures and data especially if you have lidar loaded in scene. You need the memory to deal with that data. It's not unheard of for blender to take 6 or 7 gb of memory when working. With only 8gb that's not a lot of head room.

My Blender only gets iffy when I'm using plugins or some of the modifiers, for basic "large scene" stuff it's not a problem but having a few decimated meshes visible really quickly slows it down. (eg. making road noise from high res square grid that first shrinkwraps onto the known data, then decimated to 10-20% as many faces). Better to keep the originals of those in a separate layer and collapse all the modifiers on the version you're actually using (for export + shrinkwrapping visible mesh onto). Or you could even have them in a separate .blend file and only link the collapsed versions.

Very low res, but atleast a somewhat topdown view so you can more easily match the font. Maybe not of much help, sorry

well, not that. i have vector of this logo.

i'm currently (still) searching for this. no luck so far.

if only i can find it, i can release this and start making the #77

if only there's someone who still have the photographs of Ecurie Ecosse Z4 it would be helpful.

best thing i have only found is the image below. but it'll be super pixelated if i put it on the skin

you both have given me an idea.. use the BC pro font preview and modify it to match the look

thanks a lot!

Gary have pulled me back into the active AC mod fold.

I am currently working on 4 skins for a certain Transit. 3 that i hope to present in the company area at Copenhagen Historic GrandPrix in the coming weekend. I have been a part of the company and out of respect I will ask them for permission to share them.
The last is a fictional army version.

I am learning to use Inkscape to recreate the logos as vectors. I have tried to use the trace bitmap function, but am not satisfied with the result.
Instead i have used different shapes to create the first set of letters and are now using copies of those to reshape into the other letters.

The best about vectors is that they can be resized up or down without any loss of quality.

Welcome to the world of vectors!

For text it's often very useful to get the actual (or similar) font and convert it into a shape object in PS.

 

[Mr.Mugel]

Anybody doing this one?

Just started sketching some things up, haven´t done this in a while, but I was there and loved the livery. If someone is allready seriously on it, please continue, otherwise I´ll work on it, but it´ll take some time.

(Black Falcon #4, Total 24h Spa 2018 btw.)

I sure hope someone's working on it, it's currently a skin I really want. It was one of the most interesting cars when I watched the 24h hours of Spa.

 

[Sirknight224]

Can anyone help me find any sort of decent picture of this car? It's a pain in the butt to find 2002 indycar pictures..

 

[HenkySA]

quite a pain

Thank you formularHEINE.
Are you talking about shape layers or smart objects?

My guess is smart objects.
