is this really a GT Sport convert? It looks like a GT 4 one. The 3d model really need somework

Admittedly I wouldn't have guessed it was a GT:S model, but this comment is a bit harsh for no reason. You can definitely make it look okay on certain angles.

I just wouldn't recommend shooting it from behind, or up close to the headlights.

Regardless, it's still a free mod, and it's a convert from a game that is known to be hard to work with. There's no point in being toxic and putting modders off of trying new things.

Whoa what track is that with the neon lights? I want that.

For the behind i disagree i think that it can be made to look good. Apart from the transparent tire/rim part which can put off some people. I will try to fix that soon.

I don't see how that is a toxic comment. It's pretty clear that something is off with the model and that it needs some work.

My comment wasn't toxic at all, just sayin' that the 3d model of it need some work that's all.

i mean stuff like this, even if you a god at making pictures this wont look better

Thanks a lot for the tips guys! Haven't quite sorted it out, it in the end doesn't seem to be framerate related as the fps in-game are okay. Limiting it doesn't change anything either, I re-inistalled SOL and the FTH folder is empty. I think it indeed has to do with the refreshrate, or something like that. I'll dig into that now :)

It is odd - perhaps that's the difference between the showroom model and the on-track model? Not sure, but I don't remember GTS having polygon tailpipes out on the track at that distance.
Or maybe the model has LOD1 elements? Does GTS even use traditional LODs?
A few cockpit elements (the gearknob, the steering wheel) seem quite low-poly for a GTS car, hence me wondering whether LODs are a factor here. Hard to say. I don't know enough about GTS ports, to be honest.
Hopefully @dragster666 can shed some light on it?

For the exhausts that's how they came from gamemodels.ru this was the cleanest lod i get from all of those 3 or 4 lods that were on the model before not sure if they messed something up on it. For this rear ''box'' part i orignally wanted to put ao on it but fearing that it would be too dark i didn't want to really do it since in sport it shined a bit light on. Apart from those small black parts on the box which i think i will remove. And i will add AO on it probably this week.

GTS doesn't use Lods like AC, it uses real time tassellation which makes a smooth transition between unsmoothed low poly meshes to smoothed high poly ones in real time, based on the distance from the camera. When you convert a GTS model you should subdiv (smooth) all of the meshes whose names end in "_T" and dragster apparently forgot to do this on some of them or maybe he didn't know this had to be done.
Basically the model you see is the low poly one and you need to manually apply the smoothing that GTS engine is able to apply in real time while in game.

Another thing that is surely missing are normal maps on headlight, all GTS models come with the textures for them, you just need to find which one is right for a specific headlight cover. That's actually very useful to then refract headlights since you have the mm already done for you

Basically I found out that all GTS and GT6 models are split into two types of LOD variants, HO and RACE, both of them seem to utilize the Real-Time Tessellation technology PD made for both games which only work on PS3 and PS4/5 and not PC as well, hence why ripping those models and importing them result with jagged edges all around. The solution to this I discovered with Blender is to first use the SubDivision Surface modifier to increase amount of faces to smooth out an object, then use the Decimate modifier to decrease face count while still keeping an object looking smooth more or less.

HQ and RACE aren't Lods...
And you shouldn't use decimate or you just end up messing up the topology and so the normals and the reflections on it. Apply a level 1 subdiv, not any higher level and only to _T meshes, if you want to then reduce polys do it manually and not through decimate

Ah, sorry - I thought you'd extracted the model yourself. If that's how it came from Gamemodels then the error is at their end.
They might have stretched the model widthways a tiny bit too - the round dials on the dashboard look ever-so-slightly ovalised, which is easy to spot in VR if you tilt your head 90 degrees to the left or right.
I love the action on the twin wiper arm, by the way. Very cool how it articulates during the sweep. Is there any chance the range of motion could be increased so it wipes as close as possible to the driver's side A-pillar? It currently leaves quite a large patch of unwiped glass right in front of the driver which can be tricky in heavy rain.
Keep it up, your mods are improving all the time. 👍

Edit: good tip above from @UolterUait - seems like some 3D tweaks might be necessary in a few places.
