Delete some parts on a car

I really like the Super Aguri 2008 from Raulongo and Fongu, but there are some parts on the car, which I would like to remove. For example the wing on the sidepod.

Is it possible to delete this stuff? And does this have a effect on the template?

I ask this, cause I'm interested to build up a personal GP2 (or something like that) mod, where every team use a "clean" super aguri shape.

you can delete it in GP4builder, but deleting would cause problems, because GP4 will crash if certain parts are missing

the easiest thing is to select the object, make it very small and than put it somewhere in the shape where it isn't visible

the only influence on the template would be that you don't have to paint the part you "deleted"

you have to keep 28 car objects.if you delete one of them,just create a new object and put it into carshape and rename it

i guess these little wings etc are just part of the sidepod or the cockpit. so you won't delete a complete car object but only some faces. you don't have to worry about the number of objects, just make sure you don't create holes in the car

@n00binio: my experience is that GP4 crashes if some objects are removed

You do need to have the 28 objects in correct order, with correct name.

In this case you first need to see how the car is built up, sometimes the left_sidepod object only contains a winglet. In that case to 'delete' it you can just move it inside the car so you can't actually see it but you'll keep the object.

On the other side the left_sidepod could actually be the complete sidepod with winglets and all, then you can just delete the winglets on 'faces' level and you will remain an object left_sidepod and you lost the winglets

Deleting parts won't affect the template, the part of the template just becomes unusable as it's not their anymore - adding objects however will need a remap.

Off course after editing the car you will need to re-export it to .gp4 format for use ingame (while exporting you need to have a texture loaded! The name of it is however changeable in GP4Builder)

You might have to delete some shadows to remain consistent though
