	# UltimateStance : Yup. I was mainly looking at his newer R33 wires, are they Forza based meshes(?) He reworked some of them, which means he must've had the meshes from the original model. And even so, you almost never get the detail that he's gotten in his R33 from Forza models. T10 just make stuff visible in-game; interior, body and lights. No engine, no underside. (almost) No aftermarket parts... But yeah, I'm taking a new approach on things. More polygons, no MS (or T(urbo)Smooth) :D My models do in fact use MeshSmooth some of the time, but I'm a bit clever about it. I remove whole rows of vertices and edges after I've smoothed something once to keep the polygon count down. The R33 kits are a combination of Forza Motorsport 4, Juiced 2 (with between zero and one levels of MS), and S-Tuner (with between 1 and 2 levels). However, I don't ever stop right after the MeshSmooth, I always adjust things by hand afterward. Here's an example of something I did (R33 Bomex rear bumper). And here's an explanation of how to get smooth Forza-style edges without MeshSmooth: You can get this effect by separating smoothing groups (select smoothing group -> Detach to Element), and then chamfering both sides of the cut, and then welding them together and assigning them the same smoothing group.
	My Roleplay Thread Roleplay set roughly in a fictionalized version of Phoenix, Arizona. The time varies, with a lot of flashbacks / stories told through old photos as well as flash forwards to later times, but is intended to be one continuous story. My character is about 5 years older than myself, and considerably richer. lol. I have a couple of other made-up characters for the RP too. Current cars: - Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec (BCNR33 1996 S2) - Toyota Supra (JZA80 1993) - auto N/A; work in progress Shop drift car: Nissan Skyline GTS25t 2JZ Swap (ECR33 1994) Previous cars: - Nissan 240SX RHD Conversion / RB Swap - parted out - Pontiac G8 V6, LS7 Swap - sold - Toyota Supra Turbo (JZA80 1997) - stolen Others' featured cars: - Jake's Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec (BCNR33) "Wine Red" with Nismo RB28 Will the R33 ever be released? When? : The R33 is a long running work in progress that will be released when it's done, and not a moment sooner. I'm definitely being a perfectionist about this, but I want this to be the mod the community deserves and expects, not merely the latest in a set of stop-gap mods. Will you be making a Mustang 2015 / S550? : Not after the large bunch of other stuff I'm planning to make is all done. Is that your mod in those screenshots? : Is it the Skyline R33, the Audi A5, the Crossfire, the Supra JZA80 (with Bigg Boss93) or one of the ones I've released (like the Mustangs)? If so, yes. If not, probably not; search the GOM and VStanced downloads sections for it. Mustang mod updates? : A new SN95 1995 Mustang mod is planned (the original wasn't mine); a Foxbody remake with LOD0 meshes is in the works, and will include more parts than the original version; and I am preparing updates to the SN95 2000, many of which are finished but not there yet.
