nfs4 textures

[noise]

Hi,

While working on a nfs4 car, I lost part of the interior (inside of the door) see pic.

It's still there in fcefinish/ carcad and Zmod but not ''in game''.How can I get it back?

[Reight]

probably you will have to detach the windows again in Zmod.map on fce finish.and unite windows and body on Zmod again.like Freak-DS told once...btw this car looks sexy

Detach didn't work.The triangles turned out to be semi transparant.I managed to correct it.Thanks anyway.

How can I make the sunprotection shield on the frontwindow green and transparant?

[Reight]

aint that hard mate.on fce finish you can make it like on the pic below.

[noise]

And that's the way it shows ''in game''?

[Reight]

yes.if you add a box like that to your texture,car00,and map your frontwindow like that,it works in game.you can also paint the green part in your carbody color for the alphachannel.so you can get a sunprotection in carbody color.the banner like-part wasnt actually nessesary.

Thnx, it's o.k. now. I seperated the sunprotector, so it's a convertible option.

Make sure to care for the parts order so you would still see the HB part trough it.
@Reight: Mapping in fce finish is propably the most inefficient way to do it. Besides, you're wasting a lot of space there. A simple two pixels wide texture would make you use like 5% of the space you used now.

Just an example for efficient mapping with a two pixels wide texture for stripes:



There's a lot of stuff you can do when you combine efficient modeling with efficient texture usage, and you will have to know such tricks to make good cars for HS

yes freak ds.i believe you.it is no excuse but Zmod 1 is crashing so often that it makes it impossible to use most of it features,to me.dunno,maybe its my operating system or my pc in total.ok nevertheless,can you show or tell me more about how to make it with the small 2pixel tex for the bodylines pls?
i would really like to learn it.

i will prolly never become a freak-ds or cooya but if i should be able to create decent bodylines for a car,it would be awsome.

I try to add the carname on the back, but I can't seem to select the pixels, any tips?

I can only think of GIMP right now.

[noise]

I do use GIMP, and I managed to add a name, it's on the area that contains the carcolor.But ''in game'' the text becomes almost invisible.
