Ow I see you think it looks like a Gallardo ^^, it's a superb start (personnaly I thought it was a stratos XD)

(what do you think about workin' together, I see we are doing the same things, converting C1's cars to C2 :cool: so why not? XD)

@Halogaland: I don't think the original Screwie looks like a Gallardo. As I said it's my take on it. As for working together I have to say, No (sorry) And maybe it would have been better to ask me in a PM. I plan on making one more remake after this one, and that will be the Thunder bucket.

Fortunately you told me you will do the thunderbucket because I was on going to do it XD, so, do not, that was just a proposition :)

Okay, it's been a while. Got my computer back on Friday after a serious meltdown which happened about a month ago and i managed to lose just about everything ( and of course I didn't make backups :sad: )

I will start again soon (maybe) If I find some motivation :wink:

Yeah, I managed to lose just about everything, and yes screwie too! But maybe later I'll have another bash at it, a little tired with the remake thing at the moment. :smile:

Well, I do hope you try Screwie again, though it's no fun having to redo it. I always wondered why no one had done a remake before, it being such an iconic Carmageddon car.

Okay, let's hope this one makes it! I thought some Japanese muscle would be nice, and this is what I am working on.

Very, very nice. I hope you've backed this one up, it looks a right beast.

I like alot!

The little polys on the arches, are you going to use an alpha map on them to represent bolts holding the arches to the body?

Hi, just a quickie @ Razor: It is backed up :wink: @ Deathrow: Yes, they will be the alpha bolts. and @ Timmy: Yes this is my favourite one too!

And here is the latest pic.

Another great addon coming here :) I like this car too.
IMO there's really too much polys defined on the top (hood to rear, windows included) considering the shape.
I feel like every 8-triangles quad could become a 2-tris if you get what I mean (looking at the top here).
Rear window is 16 quads atm, could be 4 in my eyes.
Would match the poly distrib on the sides.

Hi, Tosh! Okay absolutely understand what you are saying, and yes maybe there is an overdose of poly's on the top and here is a pic to show I understood.

Image

The problem is, I am quite far into doing this. But if i decide to do a stock version I will use the lower poly one. as usual thanks for the advice.

And here is how it's coming along.

Image

Since this last message i decided to listen to Tosh and have changed the roof, rear window e.t.c

Awsome there, thats one of my two.. favroite skyline models of all time,.. the other being..
Image
I hope theres one without shiney stuff tho? I mean as much as I like it they just stand out too much with the other cars, Unless I get a bunch of them? hm,
One small little thing tho The fender cover things, the wheel arches, they look a tad big? I mean im a huge fan of the 73 skyline so i know there smaller?
Also how much do i have to beg for a stock wheels vertion? heh :P

Anyway nice work keep it up,

Hi, @Tosh: Thanks. @ Maxine: There might be one without the shiny stuff and stock wheels, the arches are from this car which as you can see has the over large ones Image

And here is a view of my one from the back.

Hi, so here is just a quick update.

Image

And here is a question :confused: okay: so I was working on some smashable stuff, Front and rear lights to be precise and I done everything the same as usual, but when I reverse into a wall the game crashes and the same with the front! I can't see any mistakes anywhere and now it is kind of annoying me. So any ideas would be of help thanks. Pip

did you add the smash material to the car's folder? what is it again by default, smash4.mat or somthing?

otherwise, can you attach your WAM file? I can take a look if you like

Thanks Harm but after much hairloss I figured it out, the problem was in the wam file at the number of levels :wink:

Visually, you are getting better and better but here the physics are weird.
The car is way too powerful, 7 for the acceleration is too high, I don't understand how you set it up: 120 for max speed but super high accel. And I wasn't even at max APO :p
Physics-wise I also think the single BBOX is a bit too complex for this shape of car, and is slightly too big.

Other than that, textures are great, you are getting the hang of it. It was a great move from env mapped materials.
Model is very solid too, has a great integrity, and makes for great damages esp. front.

Hi. Firstly, thanks N3wton and Coffey for hosting. @Tosh: Thanks for comments, but I cannot take responsibility for the physics as a friend of mine helped me with them. I don't know if you know him, but his name is Jack Daniels :wink:

So far so good, no signs of any "JD" mishap :swink:
That's a nice rows reduction you got there between the wheel wells and the hood.
Could happen sooner (lower) though

@Tosh: Me and "JD" have fallen out :sad: But I have a secret weapon up my sleeve where the setting up of the physics are concerned.
Anyway here are latest pics.
