Working on this for a couple of hours, getting the technique down as much as possible

HD on left VC's on the right


Updates soon, and I'd love some feedback

[Frank.s]

Looks great, are you gonna use the CS Admiral interior or model a new one?

[bammargera]

Thanks, and probably one from scratch, but sticking as close to the original as possible., Here's some updates, got most of the shell done now, on to the tricky doors....

[Waltzing Mouse]

It's looking great, bam. Which game will it be for, SA or VC?

[bammargera]

SA for sure, but I'll most likely port it to VC eventually, I'll also be adding extra's in the boot, back seat etc, you know the ones that sometimes appear on the car and sometimes not. Oh and as I'm posting here's some updates

[bammargera]

Last update before I take advantage of the weather and stick the BBQ on

[flashg]

Mesh looks very smooth, on some places too much I think. You need harder edges on the doorjams for example. Are you using meshsmooth?

[bammargera]

Nah, it's mostly messed up smoothing groups, don't worry I'm working on the doors now.

[bammargera]

Ok some work done on the doors, added lights and a numberplate, and other various fixes, getting there now

That's because he's got every face on the same smoothing group and that makes the render look odd.
It would look "normal" if the smoothing groups were better but that isn't needed atm because he hasn't finished modeling it and smoothing groups aren't visible in III+VC+SA (only IV) anyway.


Edit: @Rob the "A"-style Mercedes parody badge is a good touch.

I'm so please you can model cars, but then again my car isn't finished as mentioned, and your's is finished, in-game and rendered with ENB, so it's bound to look better.

Yes that A badge is cool



Also make wheels dummy's the same possition as its is in SA, and collision default from SA. So it will be friendly for SA:MP
Looking forward to it

[pearcyp]

man, i didnt wanna hurt you
i just said my opinion
but i really respect you, you are a great modder

edit: i hope you'll fix the edges

[Nik.]

Looks nice but agree the doors looks rather weird, might be the for the same smoothgroup as mension, could you show some wires?

[bammargera]

Don't worry pearcyp I agree with most of what you said anyway, and I'll stick some wires up soon, for now I've worked on the rear of the car, I'm not 100% sure about the lights though, more updates soon



EDIT: I'm a big fat cheat , but the XBOX engine works so well

It's looking great, but I think that white part on rear lights shoud me more subtle or something.

[ViceDiaz]
