Found this today in the vdrift-art repository and decided to fiddle around with importing it into VDrift. It's a very high-poly porsche with a lot of little details (including a very complete interior). I did some fancier things like making the brake caliper floating (so it doesn't rotate with the wheel) and making the shadow fit the car's shape exactly using ray-tracing (thanks, blender 2.43!). There are no textures yet, but to give some sense of depth, I did quickie ambient occlusion maps for shading on the body and interior. The car settings are borrowed from the CS with only minor adjustments for view position and wheel positions. Stil to do:

* textures
* SConscript
* car settings
* engine sound

can anyone help with these?

[cotharyus]

CT? Er. Tell me what porsche it is, and I'll work up the settings for you.

[thelusiv]

I just checked in some SConscript files for it. The shadows and model look really nice. I'd try doing a texture but the body.png.tga file in vdrift-art is all over the place, not sure if I have time to redo the whole layout.

[kcid]

It's a 2000-2006 Turbo with 420 HP

[joevenzon]

If you do re-do the entire layout, make sure that each surface has its own spot on the UV layout with no overlapping... that will ensure the shading can be re-baked into the texture.

The new texture looks nice. However, there is a porsche logo on the hood. Will this cause any legal issue?

btw, the handling feels better with Montis' CT.car.

[joevenzon]

I've checked in the textures. I don't think the emblem is an issue because it's so small that you can't really read the wording. I'll wait until there's more feedback on the .car file to make any changes.

[Monti]

The logo I can clear it, if you want.
It wanted to make a modification in the structure of the car, is some program to publish the archives .joe or to export them to another format?


He costs much to look for by the forum and that to me, and the translator is not very perfect.

[TerraRoot]

Interesting .car file, no front brakes and lots of rear downforce, makein the car
behave like it is rear engined. very planted at the rear but without the 'pendulum effect'. I like.

one small problem..

ass drag!!

plus i might inset the front wheel a little more, porches traditionally have a really
wide rear track.

[thelusiv]

Yeah, the Porsche logo needs to go, and I'm not so sure about the color either. I don't mind having lots of colors available, but if we're only going to have one texture I'd rather stick to something like gray. Also, this car still needs some headlight/taillight graphics, and some other details. Actually the whole UV layout needs to be redone so that pieces and parts aren't all spread around throughout the texture. Anyway I'll play around with the .car changes later on and check them in with maybe some other tweaks.

edit: nevermind, I shouldn't start writing posts and then not post them until 6 hours later.

[rookie1]

Joe,
You checked in the texture as body02.png instead of body01.png. It's not showing up in the color selection menu. Any particular reason, or it's simply a typo error?

[joevenzon]

Oh, whoops. I made a body01 on my computer a long time ago that was just solid yellow to see what it'd look like, and forgot that it wasn't in SVN. I've moved body02 to body01 in SVN 1686 so it should show up, now.

[thelusiv]

Yeah we really need to watch that rear downforce, people seem to really enjoy adding tons of it. Ass drag is bad...
