need YOUR help on real 3D cockpit

hi ladys and gentleman
i created a 3D cockpit (yes only for cockpitview) the work is basing on enzojz´s ferraricockpit.
i do not have his permission till now, because its for my own use actually. i plan to release this
3D cockpit, in case of enzojz´s permission, so we could have a 3d and every team specific cockpit,
when used with that cms thingy. as you can see on the screeny, there a some major errors.
its my first work with zmodeler, and iam not very confident with it´s mapping. so files are there,
its mapped also imo, but some parts are white and the mirros doesnt work.
thatswhy i need YOU! i will send you the file on request.

please someone, can you fix it for me?

Wow, damn nice!
Somebody help this guy.

Please also make a generic version of this cockpit with just different textures for different teams.
I for one am happy with the same cockpit with just different textures for different teams.

Mirrors???

Hehe, i know about this problem since i worked 1st time with zmod... I learned it, forgot it, asked Dahie, learned it again and forgot it again :D ...

It has something to do with the rotation and mirroring of the mirrors (eh, hard to describe, sorry)...

1 mirror depends on 2 tri-angle

Try to rotate both. If the result is not ok, try to rotate one of them and mirror the other.

Hmn, its really hard to describe for me. If i could write this in german it would be much easier for me. Hope that someone other can help you out.

Greetings, SchimmyMike.

if i'm not mistaken, stifflers mum can read german, so you could get in touch with him, and explain what you want in german

in zmodleer map the parts to be part of the cp_team.tex file onto cp_jorart2.tga (i think its that).
for the white sqaures insie they shoul dbe mapped to one of the cokcpit files. um. a tex file. ahh. new_steering_display or similar.

ps - if you wanted to make trak specific st wheels with the track layout corrrect, CSM will do the rest

well, i remember seeing data in german in some screens (or was in some steering wheels?) of yours, so i thought, "this guy wouldn't have his game in german if he couldn't read it, would he?

Du hast ja 2 Dreiecke, die den Spiegel wiedergeben. Es ist das Selbe, wenn man ein Shape modded und die Spiegel in der T-Cam View net funktionieren.

Und hier kommt jetzt das Problem - Suchen und Finden. Es gibt viele Gründe, warum es nicht funktioniert.

Manchmal reicht es, beide Flächen horizontal zu spiegeln und es funzt. Manchmal muss man sie vertikal spiegeln und es funzt. Manchmal muss man beides tun. Ab und an muss man die Spiegelflächen drehen und dann erst spiegeln.

Evtl. Kann Dahie hier genauere Tipps geben - ich schreib den mal via ICQ an.

ok, here I come

both mirrors (left and right) are on one material, the texture doesn't matter.
In Zmod in the UV-View you got a square, map both mirrors the following way.
Reset the mapping and map it on the material like this:

I----I----I
I / I \ I
I / I \ I
I----I----I

So you have one common edge of both rects in the center of the material.
Now check it ingame. If still destorted, try flip it vertically. If the mirrors are on the wrong side, flip horizontally.

I hope this helps.
