... Rendering (using 3dmax 9), its quite a detailed guide on how to do quite basic renders but it should help some poeple get started !cough! skitzo !cough! An_Idiots_Guide_On_Rendering.zip enjoy!

exactly, i was only trying to help i didnt know rodder didnt want us all to have the font. i think people should appreciate people using the stuff they make and appreciate when others are trying to help and dont know the full story.

i tried that, the guy just got a big rubber stamp and stamped mentally ill across my forehead and then tried to put me in a padded room in a straight jacket (not that i wear bent ones anyway). Hows the fat LAZY get mow????? atleast i know how to render and am working on a rendering guide as i type this.

...Skinpainting. i decide to create and Idiots Guide On Skin Painting (using Paintshop pro 9) because skitzo is an idiot and he cannot paint his own skins and im sick of doing them for him. i have also included the tga to tex converter that i use. An_Idiots_Guide_On_Skin_Painting.zip hope it comes in helpfull for other skinpainters. i hope to create a few more Guides on rendering and things so keep your eyes peeled.

who gave you permission to download it when he posted it???

Try this one, Rodders.zip

Either delete/erase it or hide the layer.

when you save it as a tga go in to options on the save menu and make sure 24 bit and uncompressed are selected. that should solve the problem.

Here is just a random selection that i pick want any more then feel free to give me a shout 3ds_for_bangers.zip

I have a lot of banger 3ds, what do you want? i also have most f2s and a couple of f1s and 2 ssc's also if you have zmodeller you can get any 3ds using this Crack.car.zip (but i wouldnt post them up unless you have permision.

Sorry for double post, didnt want to start a new topic, has anyone got the mk2 escort .3ds they can post???

I know that which is why i said was planning on seeking the original modellers permision before releasing anything.

I think they are a bit too small aswell, i wanted to make an almost exact copy of the original with as little change to performance and handling etc. just wanted to change the number fin because i think it looks better and it is easy to paint also haadee there were only 6 low files and 9 high ones.

Thanks haadee, what are the high and low files in terms of 3ds. here is what i did, not much just changed the no fins (there is another one on the other side) 1st time i have ever mappaed anything propperly though.

Its me again! ive been altering the saphire ssc chassis(SORRY!) and wanted to put it in game (using the original physics and LOD's etc) so... i crack the original car file (SORRY!) to see the structure of the car file and i tried making my own. but it didnt work. can anyone explain the what parts of the original car file i need and what i need to add my self, parts of the carfile are called high0 to high9 and low0 to low9 and it means nothing to me. there is more too, i think the .sfx files are sound files for engine noise then there is .mod files called rrtire and i dontknow what they do. any help is greatly appreciated.

Nice cars, i think it would be a great idea, and (correct me if im wrong) but if the physics of the cars was done right it shouldnt be to hard to do.

For the templates and car files search the skin painting part of the forum. the is a merc 600 limo done and i was building a w123 estate but its sort of come to a stand still. my last post did say havent been made but if you can get pics of stripped down cars then im sure some one will have ago.

As far as i know the following havent been made, vw golf vw jetta anglia hotrod classic minis escort mk1/2/3/4 (mk2 has been done for bangers)

Dont just tell show us!

is the AlienSkin plugin for paintshop pro or photo shop? if its for photoshop then has any on got or know of one similar for paintshop pro?

Thanks for the link, still stuck though. i put the physics text file into the mkval folder and run mkval and nothing happens. im still left with the files seen below in the mkval folder...? what do i do? ive added some black carlton wheels for now, i assume i just use the jpeg files i use for renders and change where it says model to the file name?

Sorry for triple post. but i realised what i did wrong. can any one post up mkval or a link to where i can get it please. ive tried saving the text file as .val but no luck.

i did a search and i found a site www.simonreed33.cjb.net but when i try to get on it says site not found. just incase any of you can get on it.

I have a car file called fleetwood, and i cant find the template anywhere. can anyone post it up? im assuming its the one one the renders topic on page 106. i tried putting a post link on but couldnt fathom it out.
