GP4 Track Editing - new new thread

Can i have a look at your dat file?

Which one would be the best option to build the marshall spots?



In the first one, I just tweaked the banks angle for those 2 sectors that make the spot, and in the second one, I modified the previous sectors to keep the angle uniform and not with that jump from a non-angled bank to one that is.

Or is it irrelevant and then tweaking the mapping for the textures in that/those sectors I can make it look good either way?

I'm against sigpics

Second option looks better ingame...it's enough if you adjust the bank angle of the three or four previous and next sectors. The bigger the difference the more sectors should be taken into account.

Thanks Martin

Thanks, i've tried and i had no problems with loading the track.

I presume you have converted the dat also to a wad, there is the problem, are the bin and col files updated, so it will match your dat?

I have convert the dat to col and bin files but the track crashed everytime...

can you send me the bin files what you have converted to test my track?

lg

some newbie questions,
1 is this [img352.imageshack.us] connected good enough or has it to be more acurate?
2 can I test just the layout in GP4? (without pitlane?)

1. More accurate please
2. No, pitlane is necessary

I just can't seem to find out how to adjust the location of my first pitlanesectors sow I can connect them to the track

Use the 'displace' option with the XYZ axis enabled and the 'rotate' option with only the Z axis enabled.

Hi there


Hopefully some of you have already got these results mapping textures with 3dsmax...

Why this happen (I mean the darker texture), and how can I solve this?

1. I tried to export as .gp4 and re-import it, but nothing happens...

2. If I set "self illumination" to this object on texture material window, would it solve?


Thanks a lot

Best regards from Brasil


Textures mapped OK



Textures in a darker mode

Gildoorf mate,

Try inverting normals and turn self-illumination off.


My unfinished tracks: [www.grandprixgames.org]
Send bug reports and track editing questions to f1virtualblog@gmail.com

But select another material without self illumination or other properties...if you just un/check the boxes for the object it will affect all objects using this material. So you have to 'select' another material.

And yes, inverting normals should help

@Gildoorf:
Try this.. Detach few "darker texture" faces to new part and then compute normals...

Hi There

Thanks Martin, Tero and Mr. Paulo...

I detached darker parts, and both inverted and later computed normals...


For some parts, it works... But not all.

And I can´t have a preview on 3dbuilder.

Still not 100% satisfied. Soon I´ll send .gp4 parts to you and you can take a better look ok?


Cheers

Ok, but please don't send it to me because I cannot check this at the moment.

Hi there!

Once again, trying to learn on the harder way

No trying to understand how to rotate textures mapping on 3dsmax without rotating tga texture itself...

Any help?

I create meshes on autocad, import them at 3dsmax and notice that textures doesn´t match properly for whole mesh...

Please take a look at pictures

@Ruboy and Tero: Paulo is on the way to finish sakhir changes on landscape...
