AWESOME!
Try making a black version.

That's some very nice work! Is it on a standard model or is it a custom one imported with SOAP's importer?

Dude that looks better than the actual game! Amazin.

Looks awesome, man!

PS: I'm again Pedestrian =) due to site down

Thanks for the comments. The car was created using 3dsmax and photoshop. Still has got some bugs in the game, but as I read before, its caused by beta version of the importer.

Here is the viewport shoot from 3dsmax, you can see there a black version of the car:

You used 3ds Max? I tried doing that and it didn't work properly...

way cool

I just noticed - ONLY 172 VERTS?! Dude, you must have some REALLY GOOD poly distribution! Can you take a wireframe please?

Sorry for the late reply, I had some problems with my account, but now everything is fine. Here are ingame shoots of the black one:



Wires:

I have a question to ask you, fellow 3ds modeler -

Did you boolean (or pro-boolean) the wheel wells? Or did you actually make them yourself?


But otherwise, this has to be the BEST custom model so far for Driver. The beta Buick was good, but this is even better! Very nice textures.

I simply use cut tool for wheel arches.

box modelling or plane modelling?

Im always starting with the plane.

The beta version is released, check out the first post, where its uploaded. Have fun:)

You also can use this car for any city, even in Newcastle
You only need to change texure number =)

Well, I know that but I wanted to keep it simple, If somebody wants to install this car without necessary knowledge. Its still beta for testing, Final will have versions for all the cities.

I have a simple complaint to make: THE BLACK FIREBIRD DOESN'T HAVE THE LOGO! I'm saddened...

My mistake. Wrong files archved. File is updated in the first post, and here are single textures:

I've been wondering - Is this your own Trans Am? Or are these Google pictures?

He got them off Jalopnik:

The Down On The Street series is AWESOME, I recommend you checking it out.

Yes, I used this picture to keep the 'Driver' style texture. I can also paint my own textures, but it will not fit into the game style.

Well this texture style isn`t used only in Driver. Midtown Madness, Test Drive and Need for Speed uses the same style.
After all, you made good work "mk2"!. I`m looking forward to find more good model and texture mods like this and Dr. Doom`s excellent Ford Mustang from MM2

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!! My favorite car made for one of my favorite games! I WOULD PAY FOR THIS MOD IT IS SO AWESOME!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!

Thats 40,99 dollars then XD .

BUMPBUMPBUMP!! How's the progress on my soon to be favorite mod??

Dude.....it's done.

Of course he could always make a damage model .

There's no damage.

and I think it will not be, because mk2 is quite very busy recently...

I'm going to go ahead and make one (or try to at least). It will only be the brown one at first, since I have to rearrange the textures. It will also have a few more faces and verticies in order to properly make crunch zones (but not too many).
