RedCarDriver's Workshop

Original first post: I figured that, since I have a WIP topic on GOM, I may as well have one here. This is my latest project: a Holden VE Commodore, made from the Forza 3 meshes of the Pontiac G8, HSV W427, and Holden V8 Supercar. Thanks to Robban for converting the Forza meshes for me. (Pics are the same as on GOM.) A few notes: Since taking these photos, I have also fitted a hood to the W427 front end. Speaking of the W427 parts, interestingly, none of the three Forza meshes line up, because o

Question for everyone: I'm going to make some GTR-style wide fenders for the GTS. (The GTR is a separate chassis and the rear arches can't be narrowed at all.) Should these have visible rivets / seams, or should they sit as flush as I can make them, like the GTR chassis? (I'm thinking visible rivets.)
Spoiler:

Both? 🙂) but the question is: can you install the gts front end on the gtr chassis...

Nope! You won't be able to without editing the CFGs, anyway. 😛 You can install the GTR front end on the GTS chassis, though, of course. Plus, almost all of the kits will be made for both versions.

GT-R LM

That's one thing that's probably beyond my abilities. :S I can try after I finish mostly everything else, but it's probably not happening.

Will it have a removable carpet?

RedCarDriver

If I do stripped interior, it'll probably have a stripped version chassis for both the GTR and GTS. I don't like removable carpets on mods, because they add to the poly count and they make the car look worse after crashes.

Aw that sucks but I agree that it will look ugly. I prefer to have a less cluttered vehicle selection menu.

Maybe I'll add a "Strip Chassis" function to the vehicle tuning menu, and then just hide the stripped chassis from the catalog. I'll see if I can make that work.

Seriously you are going to do that? That would be UBER sick! Also can't you just leave the RPM needle in its normal spot but have a detachable speed thingy? You know where all the gauges for the RPM and Speed.

The needles are positioned differently on the GTS and GTR gauges, and I want to see if I can make ones with different speed scales. Also, I want to see if I can do a MoTeC or SARD Stack gauge.

Oh ok thats what I thought. But I was thinking if they were the same

Knight Racer drift style riveted over-fenders for the GTS are done. Also shown: R33 GTR Top Secret kit.

How do you make things this fast!?!?!?!??!

RedCarDriver

Tons of 3DS Max practice from previous mods. 😉 The smallest things used to take me forever - my Foxbody Mustang took me months, and it hardly had any aftermarket parts.

Added 1 day later:

GTS S1 grille. Yes, it's paintable, and the badge can be removed for "R32 GTR style".

Holy_Shit_Man

Needs moar parts!

Are you gonna do custom grills?

Jesus_Christ

good stuff man! 🙂 I love your mods and the detail you put into them! keep going.

It'll be cool if you do a cutout of the SKYLINE logo and turn it into a break light
