You're welcome! looking forward to see what you'll come up with
Don't mind the black space, it was meant to be used for the RSC at the beginning but then it turned out it needed a whole new UV map for it, as some parts didn't fit.
Cars WIP Honda S800 - Stock and RSC
- Thread starter A3DR
- Start date
Don't mind the black space, it was meant to be used for the RSC at the beginning but then it turned out it needed a whole new UV map for it, as some parts didn't fit.
For the next days I'll be busy finishing a 3.0 RSR skin, but then I'd like to try to adapt this 60's Honda bike scheme and figure how to make it work with the lines of the car...
Wonderful job! It looks, sounds and feels amazing.
It's a really weird seating position, though. Skewed behind the wheel, one arm above the door almost because there is so little space Takes a bit getting used to, haha (I am aware the default position is situated right behind the wheel. I always put the driver's eyes where they belong as it looks better with TrackIR)
The shifting animation grabs the lever by its arm, rather than by the knob. Also the fingers around the steering wheel seem to be a bit loose.
The headlight, as seen from the cockpit, could use a few more polies. It's the only thing that stood out while driving.

Really looking forward to custom sound for this lovely little car
lovely raspy sound and very 60s F1/F2 at the top end
So you know it's not dead... Very early wip (updated):
I intended to change the upper windscreen piece to a blue as seen in some era bikes to enhance contrast, but I believe the diffuse on that material is too low for it to show any color. In the end, I've just changed the Glass.dds tint from green to blue.
PS: Btw, there's that hanging piece of shadow on the left of the car.
Edit: I'm also facing a problem, when there's a EXT_lights.dds file (no matter the exported format) in the skin folder (for stripes on headlights), I can't seem to start the showroom. Content Manager's custom showroom still shows it without a problem.

Very nice! love how it looks so far, it really fits the car. Somehow I like the offset number on the door but it looks strange if it's not centered... might be just my perception.
Not sure about that problem with the .dds file, the covered headlights on the RSC are done with geometry.
I'll try to figure out why the hell there's a wheel shadow on the side.
In the meantime, I'm working out the final details of the RSC, coming along nicely, Aphidgod is doing a hell of a job on the physics considering we don't have a lot of info on it. It's a very fun car to drive on short tracks, I can tell you that
Some screens and a preview of the skins it'll come with (thanks to @GTAce for those!)
Also fixed driver animations on both, and the shifter too. Fixed the mirror UV coordinates that were wrong on the stock version, and tuned the dashboard lighting a little bit as well:

Edit: Nvm the previous text, I misunderstood. Like this?
For the EXT_lights.dds I can't figure out what's going on. To exclude a problem with exported files, I've even resorted to place the car's original file in the skin folder and the showroom still fails to load and exits (the same happens for the matching NM file). The log file tells nothing useful.
The RSC is looking gorgeous!

Sorry for my intrusion, but AFAIK It's a known issue, if an object is lighten via the ini file and it have its texture overwritten in the skin folder, it will crash the showroom.
Thanks, that must be it!
That will be the icing on the cake.
Thanks @soberland for the info on that issue, I had no idea either, good to know for any future skin issues.
@mister dog that'll be awesome. So far other than physics help from @aphidgod I couldn't find any more help for this project, at least on the technical side of AC. It's using the Ferrari 312T sounds for now, which suits the car more than the stock one.
Speaking of which, sent the latest files to Aphidgod today so he'll be working on the final physics adjustments before the release. RSC version is ready with all the lods and skins working, so it's ready to go once I get the word from him. There'll also be some updates on the stock version.

Fonzie liked the project, he would be the perfect dude for the job.
Sorry I missed your message before, skin is looking good, maybe it'll suit the RSC better once it's released, given that there aren't any more liveries for the stock model.

Awesome!
Meanwhile I've uploaded the previous skin here. I plan to make a RSC companion to add to it shortly, but meanwhile I can't even test it decently ingame with a low-power laptop without dedicated gpu, plus an awful screen, hence the "beta".
