Been reading this topic with great interest.
I've been seriously hoping to give it a try - and model a track that hasnt been done yet.
From previous experience, the whole skin painting thing can be a bit of a pain if not using the correct software for 'painting' and conversion of files.
My question is - does it matter on the version of 3d max that is used for modelling for nascar heat? It appears that version 8.0 is now out. I am sure i hae seen somewhere, that v3.0 is the one to use, but i can't find the thread!!
I AM serious about this.
I'm NOT gonna just post and hope some-ones gonna do it for me.... (see ps below!!)
So, If you can just tell me the best software (3ds max?) to use, i'll try and take it from there.
This may be the last post you ever hear from me regarding it.
Or you may never hear from me again if i ram my head into the monitor hard enough in a temper!
(ps - if anyone wants to model a new track, and then let me have it so i can put my name to it..... msn me!)
(pps - if anyone seriously wants pics of a real track to do, i can get as many and as detailed pics as you like of it.)
