How can I use the spotter guide view of the car in ZModeler?

like they do in the GrandPrixGames SuperLeague:



when I see it from the side, the car looks kinda skewed:

Nice cars. You should delete the brake glow textures.

thanks, they are for a fictitious series i run, but are based on real cars


So, I looked for 'camera' and couldn't find.
This is what the settings option looks like in zmodeler1:


and in zmodeler2:


I downloaded both fresh off the zmodeler homepage, am I missing a plugin or something? I really don't know how to use it, I just use it to see the cars while I'm painting...

change from 3d view to left, and change textures to solid (I think it's textures, can't check right now)




Some mods

Sorry should've be more specific.
In 3d view click tiny icon in top left corner next to "3D" text. You'll then find settings for that view.
Also pressing F will maximize active view.

Edit: Great looking cars.

Edit2: Just checked Kedy's way works even better. :-)

Yes, now I remember I used to do this like 8 years ago... but i've reinstalled zmodeler so many times after that
It's supposed to be here, right?



With kedy's method, where do I go to make the textures solid on 'Left View', it's only showing me wireframes. Sorry to be a hassle, but I can't stress enough how useless I am with zmodeler...

Kedy's method is also enabled through settings, which you're missing.

And it took me a while to figure why. I think it's because you're using older version of zmodeler ie. 1.07a.

Try installing 1.07b I guess 1.07a don't have such feature.

THANK YOU, that was the problem...





I mean, the wheels are not aligned, the brake glow is on, but I don't care anymore, it's good enough for what I'm trying to do...
thanks everybody
