JoviBlue's WIPs

JoviBlue

Hey, I've started to learn how to make mods, I'm still learning (Only started the other day) anyways this is all I've done.

Thats my first rim in game, I might return to it later and sort out the chrome lip (Didn't appear in gamee, but first model+mod I was happy)

I quickly put together a steel rim, tried out the chrome on it (Got it to work!) Now to try and get it paintable, also this is a smaller size too

I'd like to try an engine block very soon, I have a few reference pictures of the one I want to do so maybe I'll start doing that.

You made it manually or using rpk creator? It's important to do it manually since you wanna continued with a car next 🙂

Quick progress btw

JoviBlue

I guess I used RPK creator, I'm not sure how you could do it manually? I'm still very very new to all these scriptings and everything haha

Mario

Jesus made a rim video tutorial that shows how to doing the rpk and the scipts manualy, it's in the tutorials section. The things might looks a bit complicated, but thats only on first look ;-)

Jesus_Christ

good work, but learn the rpk manually - if you dont it'll soon catch up to you and rims will be the only thing you'll ever do 🙂 rpk creator only works for rims/wings etc but not cars/engine.

JoviBlue

Okay awesome! Thanks for the tip guys I'll study the tutorial now 🙂

g4tnt

good work mate you got that in game fast 🙂

JoviBlue

Thanks 😃 I'm going to start modelling a car, see if I can script it aha

g4tnt

good luck mate still learning to do that myself kinda gettin the hang of it but it takes a bit to get right

JoviBlue

So I've started modelling the body for the car (Ford Model A Tudor 1928) and the inner of the shell's arch won't appear in the render? Any reason why? It's a plane that I've curved to fit the side of the shell

Lol nevermind fixed it, made my material double sided now it appears

Added 5 hours 53 minutes later:

Started doing a Model A Tudor, idk how does it look?

Do you think it'd be a good idea to put a super simple car together and placing it in SLRR to improve my skill in scripting and understanding it, and also see if I can improve handling?

Added 4 days later:

Okay guys I have a chassis ready to put in the game, how would I script it? There isn't a tutorial that tells me how to do it or teaches me it? Any help please guys

Jesus_Christ

dont rush the only advice i can give you 🙂 you cant go from 0 to hero in slrr modding! there are a lot of tuts and you should first look at my rim tut and when you manage to at least put 20 or so rims manually in game on your own without rpk creator so you know how rpk is structured(talking about single rpk so it does get a bit messy) 🙂

seriously don't rush.. you wont get anywhere - we have seen a lot of guys come and go like this 🙂

and guys that take it slow and learn stuff learn to be proper modders.

JoviBlue

Thanks man! Well I'm going to have to start from scratch now :/ Windows8 died on my laptop and now I have nothing :/ Hopefully in the next couple of days I can get back into modding 🙂 This whole windows 8 got worse also because I've moved back to the UK so yeah a lot has gone on but it wont stop me 😃

nice work ! .. are you joviblue from pcw ?

JoviBlue

Yeah I am! It appears I can't get 3ds reinstalled :/ damn

None of the linked 3ds max 5's are letting me install they either are corrupt or won't let me install, I don't know what I'm doing wrong from the last time I installed :/ Any help? Please
