Re: FOG Experiment - 1 year ago

It is not easy at all. Creating a good environment is probably the most complex thing. In regards to the texture, it was created in Photoshop and then rendered into multiple frames in 'blender' using a previous flag-waving setup. The texture sequence was just meant to be proof of concept. It needs all kinds of work: 1. Transparency. 2. Lighting including colour. 3. It can be improve

A blender file that I started: Blender Fog It is just an idea!

Re: FOG Experiment - 1 year ago

You do not have to displace the American flag. Just Remap the flag after the texture size changes. As you can see below. (The blue background is added just so you can see them). These are all rendered in blender, applying different physics. An Australian flag, a Holden flag, helicopter blades and helicopter blade shadow. You could actually have multiple fog textures eg. 4 or more. All

Re: FOG Experiment - 1 year ago

You could try rendering 10 atx frames in blender. Your fog texture does look good. I believe an almost circular motion could work for a small 10 frame loop. Then possibly add layers of 3d planes overlapping.

Re: Help me - Files HZE - 1 year ago

In the same folder as the custom track. GPxPatch will find it there! Right click and create a New Text Document.txt copy and paste the and adjust coordinates. Do not forget to save it as (eg.OranPark2009.ini) which is not absolutely necessary unless you have multiple .ini in the same folder. You can find more information by clicking help in GPxPatch or G:/Infogrames/Grand Prix 4/gpxpdata

Re: Help me - Files HZE - 1 year ago

I can probably do it quicker than explain it. What track you need it for and is it just two of them on the start-finish straight? Basically they are coordinates X Y So you just have to make a vertical plane on the track the size you want the rippling Haze and get the coordinates from the object. I can almost remember now. (3.199 0.991 0.002 0.134) this number is to do with the size of the

Re: Wheater - 1 year ago

For the original circuits the magic information is stored in the GP4.EXE. Go to Edit and select create from gp4.exe Select the track number you wish to extract, one at a time, and click OK. The magic data file will be created and simply placed in the same folder as the Cmagic4_102.exe is stored. You should be aware that I am not following this topic

There are a few different methods to use. Basically the following is my workflow: 1. Google search for clebers trackpack 1995, download from 4shared. 2.

Go to Infogrames\Grand Prix 4\Tracks\1995 Aida\1

Re: Test question - 1 year ago

I must say, I did enjoy the Sunday evening quick test, and I will take the six points although they were hardly deserved as all I did was a quick search of the pertinent material. The concept (test) is really good and it did inspire me to look further into your ''gpaedia files''. You have inspired me to to dig a little deeper using your tools. Previously, I have only done custom.ini .
