Thank you all, you fully deserved these new previews of an advanced texture work: And now, if any of you, kind people, have the picture of BMW engine, please send it to me. That will contribute quite a bit to overall quality of this carby bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
I'm finaly on vacation and I also "intensified" my efforts in last few days. I'll post few previews soon.by bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
But I have new ones, don't worry Waiting for phone line, waiting for furniture, parking space not printed on the ground on so on :-/by bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
btw, which is the most common "technical" texture used these days by you guys? You know, engine, cockpit inside, wheel discs and that kind of stuff? Anyone willing to share it? Send it to my email, thanks.by bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
May I pop in and give you an update on BMW by Spoony? Car is almost mapped and I'll start painting it very soon, depending how soon will I get the phone line and internet. My estimate is something between 1-2 months until it's done, let's be realistic. Screenshots coming soon.by bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
Indeed, the car is beeing mapped these days, and soon I'll proceed with painting. I still don't have phone line at home wich makes picture and logo searching very difficult. Damn T-com Croatia. But the progress is steady anyway. Shape is beautifull, very detailed, over 10000 polys. Great job Spoonyby bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
Thanks, but my only connection is few minutes per day with 56k modem at work, so I'm not able to download anything right nowby bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
You guys won't mind if I pop in aswell Just to inform you that I'll paint it indeed, however right now I just moved in to new place and I still have no internet connection. That makes comunication, picture search and other things very difficoult, so I'm waiting now and I didn't start yet, but I see you guys are pushing Spoony hard with your constructive criticism, and heby bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
@ Spoony Sure, I'll do BMW with you. We already talked about it, obviously I wasn't clear enough You said you're going to do something else before, I forgot what, and we agreed I'll wait for the BMW shape. Mckey won't do it.by bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
Quoteits ok, but i'm sure a mercedes would look better Yeah, Mckey :-Pby bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
Ah, isn't that a beautyby bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
@ Sniper This Sauber Petronas transparent logos on the top of the sidepods, remainings from Sauber 2005 car? @ Buzz Hornet Yes, I'll do BMW this year, I'm just waiting to see if Mckey will do it or not. Obviously he has an advantage before others because we already did a car together.by bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
Sniper, how did you manage to get that Sauber Petronas on sidepods? I'm sure I took it off from the alphas. Infact, I checked it and it isn't there.by bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
Mate, you're making to big deal out of it. It's wrong nitpicking this car about small livery errors when the whole car is made on Sauber 2005, wrong shape, shadings and everything else. This was never suposed to be an exact copy of real thing. It's made on template, in few hours and it's only purpose is to fill our cars.wad until a proper car is out. It's better to haveby bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
After you install easywad, it's integrated in your windows like any other packing program. Just right click on any wad file and select "unpack with easywad", or whatever it says, I forgot. So, you unpack the wad file, put your files in it, and then again right click and pack back to wad.by bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
Yep, not much skill required, but who cares if it looks good. There will still be some work to do on alpha channels and template.by bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
Ok, jokes aside, these DTM cars seem to have this advantage of having big and flat surfaces, not hidden behind tyres like F1 cars, and it'll be much easier to combine real photos with texture. Although it probably won't be as good as on this pictures, I think it'll still be very close to it.by bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
By 2011 you're done :-Pby bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
Yep, you too, bring it to 2005 :-P Indeed, just to let you know, I scraped the whole thing and started all over, this time with 2048x2048 textures.by bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
Yep, that's amazing about it, 6000 polys and one 256x256 texture :-P @ chet It's 256 color pallette, that's the only green I have :-Pby bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
Bunch of sarcastic people, I knew you wouldn't believe me. It's because that fake Motorsport logo which I put on screenshot, I knew itby bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
Ahh, it's already done. Admire this amazing screenshot, it's one of my best cars so far. Don't mind the motorsport logo, I just put it there so it adds to realism of the screenshot. Note the reflection effects, shadings, realistic transparency through windows and so on. Now Mckey only has to do damage model, and that's it:by bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
Grills can be painted on texture and it'll look good enough.by bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
@ kimirgj I got the pictures, thanks.by bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
Ok, thank you all, I got a bunch of pictures and those will sure do for now. And here's a screen, for all of you impatient people. It's first hour of work on it, but you feel free to point out missing body lines or lack of shadings I still didn't get logos perfectly aligned, I'm afraidby bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
How different is it? If I do 2005 livery on 2004 shape, will it be a problem to change it later? Looking at 2005 pictures and at your model, I didn't notice any obvious differences so I guess it's not a big deal :-Pby bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
Great, thanks. I have broadband and 1gb mail box, so don't worryby bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
@ Mini Maestro Do you have some hi res pics of this car (see below)? I need some front and back shots, where I can cut off some non-livery parts, like front mask, lights and similar stuff. Pictures like this, plus few more to cover all angles. I'm already painting it, so few wip pictures will follow...by bojan_tarticchio - Grand Prix 4
