The Story
Cooper T73 project was a scratch build initial test mod, designed directly for GT Legends game by SimBin, to check if is yet possible to create and drive satisfactorily an opewheeler car add-on at historic touring car simulator. All the mod work experience has been transformed into F1 LEGENDS RACING mod (http://f1legends.nolimit.cz).
Many people asked if the F1 1964 Copper T73 car will be also released, so we finished it and we are giving the old openwheeler to fans public now

Although it is a single car add-on, the mod pack also includes few non Cooper manufacturer related skins in different racing team colors.
To fake better the full grid F1 1964 race feeling, the team cars use different wheel mesh and engine pipe styles / engine covers, but all the cars use same physics and sound set.

Good luck and Enjoy!
BorekS and team

it is a single car add-on, but includes also car skins of different racing teams like Lotus, BRM etc.
to fake better the full grid F1 1964 race feeling, the team cars use different wheel mesh and engine pipe styles / engine covers, just like F1LR mod,
but all the cars use same physics and sound set.

here are some car skin variation samples... just a Cooper T73 @Lotus team, @Ferrari team etc.

Cooper T73 @Honda racing team, Cooper T73 @Brabham racing team and Cooper T73 @Lotus-BRM racing team skin...

Is this Cooper T73 F1 1964 gonna be as same top mod like Ferrari 312B F1 1970?If yes...then it will be another masterpiece:).You guys are superstars along with another teams/people who makes cars and tracks into GTL.Very big thank you to all who has been involved:)!

But be careful.   
The Cooper is addictive.   

Wow great Boreks, my biggest Respekt       
and many thanks for all the great cars     

   Hi BorekS! Anxiously waiting for the release! Seems to be a great addition to our beloved old lady, GTL. Cheers!   
PS: do you intend to use wheels/rims in 2D as in photos above? Or could be in 3D as in Ferrari 312B??

I think I get what you mean, ney...
ummm, well, I will not change the actual Cooper project wheel/rim mesh, I suppose.
the default Cooper T73 team wheel rims are fully 3d (the "black stars), and the rest isnt also a plain flat surface like at F1LR mod cars, but the true is it is not so shaped like at Ferrari 312B or Ferrari 330P4 projects.

the flatter the rim surface is, the better I can create various wheel styles, which is just about multiple file hex editation command, no need to use 3dsimed at all. that allows to me create many wheel styles in a very short time

Great job ! Keep it up !

+ 1 !!! Beautiful.   

Impressing graphics and sound, for me the gearchanges are a little bit to fast. More like this

yeah, a nice road trip footage

this time one skin for fun: Cooper T73 @Lotus 38 - the Indy 500 winner

I'm curious, please BorekS! When you release this Mod, you intend to make only real skins? Or will have fantasy skins also, like this one from Indy 500??
Thanks for the information, in advance, dear friend! Cheers and have a nice Easter!    

there will be four real based Cooper T73 skins (2x green / 2x darkblue). the rest of "phantasy" skins you can see above - it is few Cooper cars suited into Ferrari, BRM and such teams.
its 11 or 12 cars together. its not too much, I know, but the mod will be released with a skin template, so to fill the F1 1964 grid I leave in end user hands... thats the plan

the Cooper suited into the oval race car Lotus 38 will be not included probably, I did it just for test in 20 minutes. also the specular body mask differs from the mod source.

I think the Indy skin fits very well with the Cooper.   
As long as the skins have a relation to real race cars, it should be ok if skins to be created as the Indy-Lotus.
A full field of competitors is always nice to look at and more fun at the race.    
Therefore, it would be nice if the Cooper still gets some nice skins made ​​by other users as soon as he is released.  

I think some new additional skins will be needed to fill the grid, will see what fans will create

ok guys, final BIKs for the mod are made.

Nice link Ney m8y!!!  

ok, first images of the showroom tool app for skin makers




note: Showroom tool is not somehow related to GT Legends, GTR2 or any other sim game.
it is a self running application, all the car models are included - that means no need to have any game installed or any mod downloaded to start make some repaints for my cars...

the showroom app is a virtual garage for car model, you can rotate and zoom the car there.
the showroom app, if runs in a window mode, allows to refresh a texture edited in another paint tool.
the showroom app (in case of F1LR showroom and Cooper T73 showroom) is also a genstring code help tool - by switching the code table value the skin maker can immediately see what for current mesh will change. the genstring code is used in all my car-addons.

the showroom app can also run as windows screensaver - it is possible to run your own skin screenvsaver...

Excellent stuff Mr B sir!!!
