So, you fixed that damage thing? SWEET!

[Submaniac]

WHOA! dude! you're the awsomest modder i've ever seen. you're amazing! Driver for ever!!! lol

Is that a Challenger imported from NFS Carbon?

I don't think so. As far as I know the Challenger in NFS Carbon is the concept car for the newest generation, this one is just a 1971 model that I found online.

[jam_1989]

reminds me of the corvette from the gran turismo 1 demo
look's brilliant tho

No man, you could download it as a bonus car for NFS Carbon using EA Downloader, it was an official car

[someone972]

Oh, well nevermind then. I wonder if they know that someone put it up online for a free download . Or maybe they got it online ?

[max.thunder]

You can download it probably on NFSCARS.NET, when i had NFS Most Wanted i replaced the 05 Mustang for a 71 Challenger, also the car includes a car file which can be opened with ZModeler

Well, I unfortunately have found another buffer overflow , which occurs when you have triangles with normals. As I was using simple colored triangles without normals before it didn't appear before now. So I'll try and fix it quickly, but I never know how long it will take for this asm stuff.

EDIT: A quick analysis shows that it may not take too long to fix, however I'm not yet sure.

EDIT2: If what I think will fix it will fix it, I will probably finish it in 2 hours tomorrow. But today it's getting late.

[Driver of DOOM]

I wish I had your commitment! BTW I know thius is probably the wrong place to ask, but for editing the model, you do need to use Milkshape 3D, which you have to pay for, don't you?

[someone972]

Specifically for SOAP's tool, yes. I've been working on an obj importer though, although development on that depends on the vertex fix working.

[someone972]

Well I fixed the crash I was experiencing yesterday, but there is still a major problem that needs tracked down before I can release it. It involves some very strange things happening to stuff in the main window, but not the rearview mirror.

[Fireboyd78]

That's...bizarre...GET ON MSN!

[someone972]

Turns out it's another buffer overflow. Last time it was something to do with clipping normals, this time it has something to do with regular normals.

EDIT: Fixed the overflow, and it works now as long as shiny cars is off. Probably need to fix another buffer overflow for that .

[someone972]

I finally fixed it . Had to fix 2 or so more buffer overflows. But now it's working again, at least until I find something else that breaks it.

[mk2]

Perfect. Can't wait to create some more detailed cars for Driver.

[someone972]

Sorry for the delay, it will be released pretty soon, probably this weekend. It was ready a couple days ago but I decided to add a last minute feature to it.

[Submaniac]

take your time. i already know it's pure maddening awesomness...

[Miller]

All hail someone972.

[someone972]

Well, I'm not sure if I'll get it done this weekend after all, but I'll try. I just spent a couple hours trying to figure out what I thought would go fast, but now that it's done I hope the next part goes faster.

[someone972]

I will probably be releasing the vertex fix patch today, as long as I don't hit any snags with the last bits of coding I have to do. Anyway, here's what all it will fix:
- Allows for higher detail models
- Allows for working damage
- Fixes shininess
- Includes screenshot patch
- Will allow for different wheel models to be specified for each car type. (This is what I've been working on)

Cool. After release I'll start work on compiler.

FUC* YEAH!

Fine.


Good work, someone972, I'm glad I have ran into you in the wide Internet

[Driver of DOOM]

I want to lick your face!!!

[Submaniac]

Uh i just wanna say you rock! ^^ individual wheels? Youre a f.ing genius someone972!

[someone972]

So I am pretty much done, except for one little thing I might change. I don't have time to fix it now, or package it so no release today, but definitely tomorrow. I also tested the wheels and they work fine, I'll give more details later.

EDIT: Whoops, looks like I've overlooked a major thing, as civcars wheels dont get replaced properly. I'll try and fix it soon.

[RacingFreak]

Hey, nice! Glad to see it released soon.

But, I`m having a small question for you, about DTE 2 as overall; can you make that all model have a name? e.g unnamed models should have their numeric numbers like MODEL112, MODEL189, etc. I`m asking about this feature, in order, to extract the each model, from the .lev files I want.

I especially need to have a named model, in order to extract this beta buick:

Due to the simple fact, that is better than the in-game Skylark.


Thanks in advance

[someone972]

Ya, I could do that. Models don't even have to have names actually, it's just a limitation of SOAP's exporter which he could very easily fix.

[Clutch]

Omg Someone, make the patch first, when you release it, you will do modifications of DTE and else...
I can't wait to import my prepared car to the game

[RacingFreak]

Any news from SOAP?
