superb work erik !!
it´s the first car model with real wheelbase instead of gp4 default values.

Thanks everyone.

Just a few reactions:
BigBrother, check your pm's.

Duco is working on the Spyker livery but I can't guarantee anything.

About the lods. It was a real pain to get the car decent again after the transition from 3dsmax to zmodeler. I did not have the time nor the inspiration to produce real lower resolution models and go through the whole transition and remapping again. If your PO is too high, consider using lower resolution textures.

Great car, guys! As always! Really impressive work! :)
Erik, one thing about lods. You made the car with Max, so you should know there's a modifier named MultiRes. I use it to make lods for my cars. Actually I create lod1 just by deleting z_cockpit objects from the car. Then I pick lod1, import it into Max and apply the MultiRes modifier with 75% Vert Percent for lod 2, 50% for lod 3 and 25% for lod4 as indicative values. Export everything back to Zmod, some renaming et voilà, lods done! You'll get some messed up normals on the lods, indeed. But you actually wouldn't notice that that much, since you're having them only for lods 2, 3 and 4. :)
It's worth a try imho! That would make this car even greater! :)
And to everyone complaining about the textures: 4 1024 texs equal 1 2048 tex. Actual cars normally have 1 2048 tex + 1 1024 interior tex sometimes + 1 256 carb tex. So, total texture size of this car is moreless the same than any other car :)

Thanks guys!

Diego, I had remapped and rescaled the ZM version so it wasn't the same as the original Max version anymore. I was thinking about what you say just a few minutes ago. It's nice to know that it works for your cars so it should be no problem for mine.

Yeah, I know you rescaled it in Zmod, the 3ds filter always messes up things. And some tips about proportions that Nic gave you came directly from me ;)
I think you should give it a try. Oh, and I forgot to add that, if you wonna have better lods, you can delete antennas and tiny objects from lod2, suspension details and other small parts from lod3, mirrors, barge boards, t-cam, flip-ups etc from lod4. :)
And great work once again my friend! You and Duco are a guarantee of great products! :)
