3DRims improved ver.

I'm working on a 3DRims improved version...I'm joining the gp4 rims and Ghsotrider's ones together...there'll be better light mapping and more smooth cockpit tyre...that means the side of tyres won't so strange...
I hope I can finish that work and released it.

Great Viper. The present rims look great, but are a bit to "clean and shiny". In any case I have them installed in all versions of my game. - Oh and all of your cars of course. When will the improved version be available?

larryM want to suckup any harder? :P

hehe

That's downright korny now. When someone does so much work and produces such great material as eg. Viper... and we get it all for free, I think a little graditude is in order. I did include a little "criticism"- did you notice Korny_freak?

Viper, I hop you can remove those white lines along the tires, and make fitting treads for the wheels...

Good to hear you're improving it...

The while lines will be removed of coz...that should be part of outter rims but I think Ghostrider made a bug that it wasn't rendered it as others parts of rims were.
I may also make a side-rim texture that go with Cealen's tyre texture.

I don't know when it can finished but the weekend I think.

ive been worink on some new dry treads to work with 3d rims and i could send em to you if you like.
id been running gp4 with advanced carshader off, because it reduced the frame rate without making much difference. however after re-enabling it my tyres looked completely different, so ive changed them a bit and they now look fine , they also look ok with 3d rims except they dont blend in all that well with the tyre wall, however i think thats a problem with the 3d rims as there doesnt appear to be any reflection on the tyre wall. I altered the alpha channel on the tyre wall texture to fully white however still no reflection appears. i think you already said so but are going to fix the cockpit tyreshape, for me it looks very polygonal and not smooth at all, whereas other views look nice and round.

Yes...tyre wall problem , that's the shape's lightting mapping problem and I'm trying to get the tyre from gp4 shape.

yeah i saw your critisism LarrM and I agree Viper has made some
amazing products for us for free yes.

Great!I have created the shape of the tyre and it looks cool in the gp4...but I have some bugs , the "ring" of rims shakes when the wheel rotates , and I have to send it to Ghostrider to map this shape.
