@garyjpaterson mate have you found a solution for the sound?

 

[Ryno917]

Beautiful work Gary!

Not yet, had a few people say they'd give it a go but not much more than that.

I'm tempted to release this sooner rather than later, even if it is a bit unpolished in that respect, and can just update later down the line if need be.

If i was remotely organised I could have tried to arrange some help with that but I never really expected to be working on this again yet, but now that I am I may as well go as far as possible.

The difference in chrome might be very visible on switching between hi and low. Might be worth having one extra material.

Looking stunning though, I love it

yeah I perfectly understand. No worries, you could go with something that just fits for the time being, and see if something specific can be done later
by the way, a friend of mine who is an expert of these cars and this period in Grand Prix racing sends you his compliments

I´d still be up for it, although I doubt I´ll find some spare time in the near future, definitely not until March or April next year when Uni eases off.
I think we already talked about this with Gary, my approach would be Sound Designing the car from scratch ( that´s about what I´ve been doing the last 3 months anyway...) rather than relying on GoPro footage from the 50s
If memory serves me right, I amped up a recording of my desk fan, and wanted to mix that with an older plane engine. So if anyone else wants to have a go on that one, this might be worth a try.

Absolute potato quality gif, but i think its not that noticeable:

What am I look at?

 

[aphidgod]

Is car.

 

[TWHH62]

I can still do it this very christmas. If it has final engine physics you may send it over. Contact me in pm or maybe fb messenger?

Merry Christmas! Please note with is really quite WIP - and the version number reflects that. I wanted to release this for Christmas,, though by the time I had decided that it'd have been unfair of me to try and ask anyone to help at...

[Rodger Davies]

Amazing, can’t wait to give that a go. Thank you.

 

[ricki]

Best Christmas present ever - Thank You Gary!

Its a real brute to drive, luv it.

Annnnddd i've made something..

Now i only need garyjpaterson to add it to the car

 

[mantasisg]

That is this rare event when a mod car in a sim gets proper scratch made sound. Amazing. I think it is perfect.

And I am scared to look at rear axle

 

[garyjpaterson]

Upon completion of a 3d model, i like to mark it with these grainy black and white renders. Tyre normals a bit messed up in the renders but never mind

 

[Manian]

Absolutely outstanding! Now we only need a high quality version of the Mellaha circuit of Tripoli in order to go back in time

It really looks top notch! Let me know when you want to release an update
