Well had a quick go here at the modeling, and i have rather a long way to go lol.... I guess i used too many plots, also i must have gaps between my plots or something like that.... I know its my 1st go, but going pear shaped in the early stages, any help Nick or anyone can offer would be great, mainly on the plotting side (or anything).... Can you use different cars for the same model as long as the car is identical the make and model? Cheers Vivadave169....

Thanks again rikard.... Vivadave169....

Thanks Nick, might take you up on that, see how things go.... Need a good side on photo of "something" to get me started, start with the small fish, nothing to complexed....i'm sure there's plenty of photo's to be had on google.... I'm i right in thinking i'll need square on photo's of both sides, front and rear of the car to be modeled? Cheers again Vivadave169....

Cheers Rikard.... Vivadave169....

Can someone please post the link for Nick M's new modeling guide.... Been thinking about it for a while, so i'm gonna give it a go, at modeling something.... Cheers.... Vivadave169....

Well a little work here and there, incuding a pic big enough to see lol.... Wont let me upload saved bitmap file on the dirt forum, so have to do it as JPG.... I always struggle to line the floor up, but close enough for me....lol Any comments would be good (if anyone is wondering why i use the #136 car skin over and over again, its cos its the best one i've done, need to do some more lol) Vivadave169....

Oh well here goes, my latest....cant get any of the wheels to go correct on the trailer, maybe theres one i dont have.... Any comments would be cool.... Plus quailty drops after i have saved it.... even through max, step by step would be good to save it better and keep quality.... Vivadave169....

Would anyone be so kind to upload one of the transporters for use with an f2 or f1....? Thanks people, keep up the good work on the renders... Vivadave169....

Getting there, bit by bit.... Real life Skin #136 Chris Ford F2.... Vivadave169....

Well here's my latest attempt.... When i add the tga to the wheels it goes wrong like as you can see, any idea's there? The wheels take the longest to line up imo.... Plus it wont let me save my render in max 7, says its a read only file and cannot be saved....???? Plus how do you make the white floor reflect, in the brazil mode? Quality looks shoddy too when i have saved it using, print screen and save as jpg in paint shop pro 7???? Cheers too Sparky for his patience with me.... Any pointers or help would be great Vivadave169....

I checked the bits and pieces you mentioned and the compressor is working fine, after what you have said it looks like it needs re-gasing, as when air-con is on, the air coming out is warm enough to toast marsh mallows lol What sort of cost am i looking at to get it re-gassed? The car is a (Y Reg) Vauxhall Corsa 1.4 Elegance Manual (5 Door) Cheers for all your help.... Vivadave169....

Thanks for your replys.... This pic isnt my car but explains in more detail.... Not sure where to look on my car for the things you mentioned.... Cheers.... Vivadave169....

Good luck with your venture Chops.... Thinking about about you can come and fix mine, bought a 2001 Corsa with air con and it doesnt work, it has two buttons for the air-con, one for the air circulation and one for the air con it self, the air circulation lights up when you push it and the motor kicks in, but the aircon button doesnt light up and nothing happends, the fuse is fine, i checked that.... Any idea's???? Vivadave169....

One i did a while ago.... (ignore the typo) Vivdave169....

Is there a guide on how to use the Brazil plugin anywhere? I already have it and would like to know how to use it lol If there isnt is there any chance some of you great people on here could a little guide on using it? Vivadave169....

Cheers for replying Daz, that car has served me well since you made it for me....including a win and many placing's.... Vivdave169....

Cant remember who did my F1 skin as i need to add a yellow roof, if the person who did can get in touch with me please, and either add yellow roof or send TGA to me.... Cheers... Vivdave169....

Ok I'll buy this car and as long someone promises to follow me in on the first corner at full speed, to kill this pathetic manipulation of a true classic car....NUFF SAID LOL.... (going for a lay down now after all those big words) Viva(i should be on countdown)dave....
