70 challenger for unwheel =)

[The_Devils_Avarcardo]

Just thought i'd post my progress in here for you guys to look at.

Just over 2 days work so far... Coments and crits welcome

 

[dub]

Nice work. Just maybe the engine detail might be a bit over the top as i doubt you will be driving with the bonet open Nice model though

 

[The_Devils_Avarcardo]

Well here's the deal. The unwheel version will have 3 flavours (im hoping i am up to the texture job). They will be Junker, Stock and Pro Street. The Junker+Stock versions wont have any special engines or hood/trunk space because it wont be seen = waste of polys, so only the pro street will have the special engine showing. However, the extras are there because this car is also destined for Carmageddon TDR which has realtime damage, so hoods/doors/trunks etc get ripped off quite frequently.

So you see, i have teh master plan

For the unwheel version i'll probably end up cutting 10-15% of the polys (oh and the tri count is still under 4000 for anyone who's interested, without the stand-in wheels)

That is just two days work; man do I feel inferior The model looks great

 

[UltraNew-B]

Ya, for the unwheel versions, no engine, opening door stuff or anything like that required at all. Its just more work for me to remove to get ingame.

 

[Ravu al Hemio]

Wheelie kewt!
[Really cute!]

That is a very nice car. I suggest you keep up the good work and then everyone will be happy. Or else

It's interesting to see its polys showing... I somehow like that

Unless we ever decide to have stuff like doors flying off, etc.

 

[The_Devils_Avarcardo]

*cough*that's totally possible yaknow *cough*

Updates :

UV and skin up next, wish me luck you guys

oh, and mustn't forget the wheels

 

[ProjectX]

I know it's possible, it'd be just like the snappable blades for the scorpion

 

[The_Head]

That car is awesome, i love the look of the engine. Damage would be sweet but i can imagine the fps getting pretty ugly

 

[carmatic]

mmm sexy car... kinda reminds me of starsky and hutch

hey what do those roller wheels do at the back of the car?

 

[The_Devils_Avarcardo]

Those are wheelie bars carmatic. They stop the front of the car flying into the air when the huge rear tyres grab onto the road when you jam the throttle.

Just waiting for some feedback from a friend of mine, then i'll finish this up.

 

[carmatic]

oooh... do they have any meaning in the svehicle code?like do they actually have a physical effect on the car...

 

[The_Devils_Avarcardo]

i personally havent a clue, they are just polygons stuck to the back of the car. no doubt the cars bounding box will encapsulate them, so im guessing the car wont be able to pull wheelies (like it would be that overpowered anyway).

 

[carmatic]

ah... but if you forcefully tip the car backwards when its moving, the bounding box would cause scraping rather than the rolling that the bar is supposed to do, i guess... if only theres a way to change that, like a certain part of the box gets a special property, like the killing effect of the scorpion's blades and the way they are attached to the scorpion ,but in here its like a repulsor-like effect of the tank...

 

[SupermotoXL]

Wow! cool work on the models Avarcardo, looking foward to see the final product, good job!

 

[JACK SH!T]

Nice work !!!
I use to have a '72 Cutlass
Rocket350 w/455 heads, quadrojet 4-barrel, 0.030-over, 350 turbo trainy (never got around to putting a manual into it) w/4-11 rear end.
Any chance of getting you to make a early 70's Cutlass or 442?
'69 Nova is pretty hot too

 

[The_Devils_Avarcardo]

Well what the hell, updates?

Dragged this model back from wherever its been and had a pop at finishing it. It's finally getting closer to completion, just adding the smaller details now (although most of this will be cut for unwheel, but not carmageddon XD). I'm going to try and do the UVmapping tomorrow night, so that should be fun :/

 

[The_Head]

Bring back the rear spoiler!

Lookin cool still
