Hi, maybe is usefull

Is from Gran Turismo PSP

Yup, good find. I remember having a look some time ago and thing is, these PSP cars are quite low poly (worse than standard GTL cars anyway), no cockpits, then the cars use like 100 textures!!! Never seen a model using so many textures. So, I don't quite think it's worth the trouble, only maybe as a parts pool.

Of course, Marian ! But it seems to be a lot of work.

Is it from AC?

There is one for GTR2 over at Trackaholics.(2 threads)

Cheers

Yeah, from AC. Found a way to extract the .KN5 files without 3DSimed 3 (as I don't have at the moment 40 euros to spend buying this program), there're skins available, so I said it might be worth the trouble.

There is a way to reset the 30 days trial forever and trick the software into thinking it's always the first activation.

You just need this (and it's 100% legit): http://www.trashreg.com/rtkf_eng.html

Compared to the S800 from GTR2 available at Trackaholics... it does! Then, model looks apart, that's the street version and dunno if it can be turned into a racing version by removing certain parts, this model is the race version which I try to turn into a street version too and make it more complete overall. Added some number plate too, but it uses a standalone texture and that's not good. There's space left on BODY1 texture, so I'll try to map it to BODY1. Hope to make a good job. Next step is to get rid of the hardtop.

Really beautiful! Can't wait to have a template to paint these ones:

MG!

Great

A big DITTO from me!!!!!

Will the car have a cockpit. I know you have released some mods that don't which is a shame as I personally wont drive them for me a good interior is 50% of the immersive fun but I know a lot of people are not bothered by it at all.

Very Nice car impressed.

Yes, cockpit available.

Anyone would be interested in a 1963 Studebaker Avanti as pacecar? Used that year at the Sebring 12 Hours and was supposed to be used again at the Bahamas Speed Weeks (also known as Nassau Speed Weeks and/or Nassau Trophy).
Real car.


3D model.



It's a rather low poly model (little short of 20k) with no cockpit/lights I made this morning, it's literally just a shell to be used as a pacecar in pre-1963 mods. It's not really meant to be driven by a human, so I'm personally not interested in working on the interiors as I will never technically see them. For this reason, I just threw some lod_d interiors from a Thunderbird and called it a day.

I watched an entire old documentary about this car a while back, and it's a fascinating story.

If anyone wants, I can upload the files that can be converted. However, the problem is this:

As you can see the mapping is a complete mess. So for now, it doesn't have skins yet.

Back to work...

Chassis 2159GT

Excellent news, Marian! I have been waiting for this Mod for a long time, as you know well. Cheers!

Looking good

& good looking too!!!

Finally... a decent 356 model, to say the least!!
Still a lot of work to do. Best part is that 3DSimed 3 can convert FH3 cars now. Found a way to do it before, a looooot more complicated, in the end to find out it was not worth the trouble. Things are so much easier now, but the problem is most textures do not work with the car parts. The mapping is lost somehow, somewhere. Look at the rims, lights etc. I mapped many parts already, still a lot left to do. The good part is that the body, interior and cockpit gauges mapping is OK, skins could be done.

Waaaw ! Beautiful !

Oh Marian, buddy! I'm waiting for years to have a decent Porsche 356 in my GTL. At last, we'll have one. Thanks for your efforts, dear friend! Cheers!

Great news!
