No offense, but that thing above shouldn't even see the light of day. Even its polys are melted :D

Just sharing a setting for cm. Top left, this will sort all the cars that you've never driven, you may be shocked as you can see down the left side. :embarrassed:

I'm not 100% sure this is correct.Mine at least,lists also cars that i have driven!

The cars that you have driven but still show up most likely either have capital letters in the folder name or the number of characters in the folder name exceed 32 both of which negates Content Manager keeping track of that cars progress for whatever reason.
 
Mascott since you posted this last week, do you or anyone else know if he has anymore work?
Goes by Foreceful

His 911 GT2 is damn fine, one of the best 'street' cars I've ever driven. tx

I replied to your earlier post a few days ago with his contact details/FB page.
 
Exactly. I never get this moaning about "uses Kunos physics" when most stuff is so streamlined today, no coincidence the example you gave everything is from the same mother company, another example is the Audi and Lamborghini GT3 cars, also same mother company.

Or the Toyota Supra using basically a Z4 Engine.

And many suppliers nowadays probably provide a few stock options and maybe do something out of production for a hypercar for example

I agree to an extent but you guys are thinking about these copied physics in the best of cases. i went through and looked at many many mod cars and what im finding is not even remotely close trust me i was aware company's do some duplicates. i was a technician for 8 years. so you can imagine how many parts i've ordered for cars. and how many i've seen that use the same parts being its the same platform. the example picture i showed was a Mercedes using a BMW suspension and aerodynamics. a 2017 c63S using m4 aero and suspension?! they are not even close and that has never happened in real life.

We arnt playing need for speed here, this is supposed to be a Simulation. so copied physics is unacceptable for a simulation. You would never see that done on a kunos car. We are supposed to be doing our best to match kunos quality. if not then whats the point? we might as well be playing forza horizon or need for speed

The discrepancy's i'm talking about are a big deal. im talking about a Mercedes GTR gt4 car using the rear end of a Lotus 98T F1 car, im talking about a special edition 458 ferrari using the Aero and Suspension of a Nission GTR. you should see some of the horrible stuff im seeing. trust me i wouldn't be here complaining if i saw a Audi using a VW part on it, or vice versa. im talking Massive discrepancy's. And even when cars do use the same platform across their brands, they are not always the exact same fitment of suspension components. the older jeep compass and the Mitsubishi lancer shared the same GS platform for example. but they arnt going to feel the same driving them for that reason.

when the data says 100% match on that analyzer that means it is EXACTLY the same. that 2017 C63 S in my example is just a Reskinned 2014 M4.

You tell me if those look the same to you. to me those look very very different and indeed they are, we have all the tools necessary to attempt to make it correct. those tools should be utilized. lazy cars are lame cars.
 
Content Manager allows to save the set of cars used as a preset that can be easily recalled and that can be shared

I don’t have one for the GT1 class yet. So I think you’re better off making it on yours rather than waiting for me to upload one. I sort my cars using tags for each class and I only use presets for track day BoP testing so far.
 
Ok, so I also posted in Racedepartment about my model conversion questions for the Pagani Huayra and all I got was Gevatter and Fat Alfie telling me to screw off, so haven't gotten much help there of yet (wasn't really expecting any, even though there's quality mods there, the RD community is full of elitists imo). Even on the "official" 3DsimED I haven't gotten any response for the same problem. Looks like my only source of any help is either going to be here, or if I can somehow contact the guy who did all the other Shift 2 conversions. I'm sure "K E N N E T H" also knows a thing or two about conversions.

Still playing around with the material settings in 3DsimED but haven't come across anything yet that will make the body of the car opaque.

In other news, my key to get the full version of Content Manager came in the inbox today, so can't wait to start up some custom championships.

I agree with you... i have had the CM analyze tool for about 8 months so well aware of what people do.
Personally I doubt pretty much all of the maths anyway and simply play for feel, it it feels good on my wheel i am pretty much content with it.
Some apparent top class mods i have hated how they felt, then some mods which are parts bins of physics drive great.
If i were to bin the mods i have that use some kunos physics i'd have about 100 left from over 800... I mean it's tempting to do it sometimes, but some are very very usable and 'fun'.

I said before though your Aston Martin recently was the best feeling of any assetto cars i own so i look forward to anything you work on for sure.

Maybe some of the modders on facebook may be able to help. Some of them seem willing to help if they know what you are looking to do and they know how to do it. PM versus group post - BZ, Busca, Chivas, Velo (maybe).

I wish I knew how to help. There are some good people here in this forum as well.
 
Interesting find today. Psalms 3:3 of the bible is written on the side of the ViperExchange Viper GTS-R. Drive the car all the time and never even knew that was there, but if you look up images of it running at Le Mans and in IMSA, it's written on the real car as well. Thought it was kind of strange at first because I've never seen anything like that on a racing livery before.

If anyone knows of any other verses or just quotes in general on racing liveries I'd like to know because I find this quite interesting.

Anyone here have any experience with 3DsimED?...
Threw the weird transparent mess into CM Showroom....
Check the Depth Mode of those materials. I don't know what it is for but if Depth Mode is set to 'eNoZWrite' then you get those transparent textures.
Export to FBX and use kseditor to check.

Not sure where I'd find that option in 3DsimED. Which program are you referencing when you say depth mode?
