obviously it's 3d, the only problem is that object dosen't allow lights on it, so I just add the light part and shadow part by hand.

you can add lights on your steering wheel
the parts must have the name of the old lights...
you can do a own texture for it...

i have testet it...but flipped textures ^^

For me, it looks as the old wheel is still in the background.

obviously
this is just a test
there are more than 300 items in the wheel defination, so can't be done in just one day.

seems not i am looking for..
i want to resize them

are you placing this as cockpit_wheel.gp4 ? i tried this before, but it will look still 2d since it is not shaded properly...
try moving all this little objects with good old zmodeler, it´s working...

I'd be interested to see if it makes that much of a difference, because my first tests seemed to make little difference

yes it look like 2D
i put light on the textures.

It's a shame we don't have a work around for the external view - but I believe it was one of the requests that madman was going to look at

3d steering wheels have been done already a few times in released mods.....
this was the one i was part of for the champcar world series mod....



Uploaded with ImageShack.us

this steering wheel had similar black look when we first tried it.....turned out not to be within gp4's normal mapping limits...
fixed in zmodeler ...............

enzo, zaz ones coded a tool for me to change the position of the textures on the wheel easily. without fumbling in the .pos ore .txt files. very handy. may be you can use such stuff?
