Doritos Projects (P51 Rod on hold)
So I have made this model first in Zmod 1.17b
then imported it in to 3dsmax8 got all the textures fixed again and exported as an ase file converted it and got it in to plaything... And i dont know how to set up the wheels (making them actors) from my converted 3dsmax file...
yes this is up on the carmageddon.com forum but this is where all the modders are
Any and all help appreciated
and much thanks to all of you out there keeping C1 and C2 alive for so long

Re: P-51ROD wip
Hey Doritos
I like your model there. Crossover between a plane and an old F1 Bugatti thing?!
About the wheels: make sure your model is scaled correctly in PT2 then simply use the the Setup Wheels function.
Your wheels must be named FLWHEEL FRWHEEL RLWHEEL and RRWHEEL. That function will do the 'actoring' all alone.
PS it wasn't necessary to create a new account, your devWAM one is still active.

Re: P-51ROD wip
hehe, that's cool
This thread might help you some.
I think you should add a stubby 4 bladed propeller that spins

Re: P-51ROD wip
Damn that looks great!
Don't think I've ever seen such a vehicle for Carmageddon before, the wheels should be a bit more racey in my opinion, but the rest looks awesome.
A shredding propeller is required.

Re: P-51ROD wip
Well I couldn't log in with my original devwam account for some reason either I forgot the password or something else either way I'm here now!!
Okay so I have the wheels named wrong it seems... Ill have to look at that after I finish my finals.
@fireman and coffee : i intend on adding parts as soon as I get this done stock first sort of a "hey I can do this!" the stubby prop blades is a good idea maybe bent forward like a square bracket ([) for a spinning shish kabob thing. also was going to have wing blades that act like doors maybe... again this may take some time
Also im having issues with textures in pt2... as if the ase-asc converter doesnt see all of them... (exported entire model then converted to asc then import to pt2 and part of the textures are missing) I wonder if this means im doing something wrong
just have 2 fl and fr wheel headings now lol

Re: P-51ROD wip
Awsome model there. I Rember seeing the picture of this.. dont rember where someone posted it.. eaitehr drawing or painting or something from a comic.
anyway looks well made, seems to have a san andreas feel, Are there many gta parts in there? i know there gta wheels but i cant tell if anything else is. despite the textures of the plane being verry SA Like

Re: P-51ROD wip
actually all but the "bull nose ring" is all gtahttp://farm8.staticflickr.com/7046/6919789179_5b3cd2bb5a.jpg sa pretty much extracted the plane and modded it to my liking but i tend to do that before i make a totally scratch model for any game i convert from another game or modify the existing content... and you probably saw this on carmageddon.com... i post there under ZalDcaze, I posted a concept pic of a Messerschmidt rod this is just the american derivative... maybe after i get this done i will make the german version
more to the point this image
yes?
san andreas just has a lot ov very usable parts im afraid
maxine mabe you should give this one a go

Well the P51 rod is still in PT2 I think i have the wheels set up but again i have 2 FLWHEEL and FRWHEEL act headings so now im confused and slightly lost... also even though i exported the model all textured it seems PT2 isnt recognizing that for some reason well more reading for me im affriaid
@Coffey: just last night i wsa thinking that... kind of an online game of protect the big guy... 4ish of mine and the b24 going one way and other vehicles trying to destroy the b24

Re: P-51ROD wip
Hmmm, there should be one FLWheel.act and one FRWheel.act.
Also are your textures 64x64 or 128x128 pixels? size needs to be multiples of 8 (8x8, 16x16, 32x32,64x64, 128x128 or combination i.e. 64x128)

Superb artwork!
If you don't do it, I'll make a skin for your model that matches the artwork!

Re: P-51ROD wip
@Coffey: I thought it was odd as well to have 2 entries for both front wheels.... one set where they started and teh other probably where they should be (body- pivot- wheel) I don't know if I should delete one pair or not and my textures are all under 128x128... the only odd one is 64x128 so that shouldn't be the problem..
@Toshiba: I do plan on making a model more matching that picture, as it is awesome artwork (sadly not mine) but i would gladly appreciate your skin as an alternate paint scheme for this model

Re: P-51ROD wip
Okay this is odd I open up the model in pt2 today and no more double front wheels.
Maybe I was just seeing things, my mind has a way of playing ticks on me when I least want it to.... but here it is any way

Re: P-51ROD wip
Wheels
FLWheel.act should be a child of (grouped to) FLPivot.act.
FRWheel.act should be a child of (grouped to) FRPivot.act.
When you did PT2 Wheel Setup it should've done it for you. I don't understand what you did wrong.
Textures
If tifs are the correct size, are they in a TIFFRGB folder? Look at some other people's cars and see how they are setup

Re: P-51ROD wip
Also the Body should have a mesh (looks like it has)
and be the master object (atm it's the C:/Program Files... entry).

Re: P-51ROD wip
okay well hmm pt2 did have the front wheels as the pivot children when i saved it last... and the other entries as well... i dont know what happened there... luckly i can just reimport and reset up... now how do i make the body the master object? simply move it up in the hierarchy? and all my textures are in a TIFFRGB folder again not sure whats going on with that.
and this is what happens after reimport and setup:

This is what should be done right after the import in order to get the right component as the master object:

Re: P-51ROD wip
The hierarchy looks right now, you just need to rename Body to P51Rod.act
that makes it the main part that the game is expecting.
Even without the textures you should be able to drive it ingame once you add a TXT and WAM
Edit: you need to move car up so wheels are sitting on 0 of the Y axis. Right now half your car would be underground.

Re: P-51ROD wip
Within PT2 you should be able to assign textures back in the materials.
Double click on a material in the bottom panel then Browse.
If there's no material you can create them from the Material drop down menu and apply them on the model again.
If the conversion kept the UVW maps then it's just a matter of applying the textures again.

Re: P-51ROD wip
Yay!
Made it all again? I like motivated people Looking good.
I'm still feeling like making a replica of the one in the artwork! Not sure I'll ever have the time to!
Especially as I have C1 in mind and thus it involves pixelart etc.
Now you have to export that to 3dsmax, maybe set the smoothing groups again, then use ASE2ASC to bring it to PT2.

Re: P-51ROD wip
well with a new laptop comes new problems that require repair... my projects have been on hold since well months ago. i need to reinstall win7 on this new laptop my old laptop requires a new battery and power cord and i cannot get them to network together to transfer massive files. Sadly life has gotten in the way as well as life does so prominently but the model is mostly complete might require a driver model but that is such a little thing missing in comparison to everything else thats missing like getting it in game but ohwell this is just like all my projects so nearly complete but unfinnished
