I've decided to create a new thread to post all my projects in. Here are pics of my Dodge Viper SRT-10 conversion:

I don't have a deadline for its release, but I think it should become available for download within a few days.
Looks really sweet!!! What game are you making it for and do you make any, or have you made any for NFS3?
Wonderful job, you always pay attention to the small details on your conversions. :bigthumb:
Quote from: bucksavageLooks really sweet!!! What game are you making it for and do you make any, or have you made any for NFS3?
It's for NFS4.
New pic:

It only needs a driver and dummies to reach final status. I haven't checked it out in the game yet, I plan to do it tomorrow.
I like the angle of that pic. :cool:
it really looks cool. Once its done I hope it gets converted to NFS3. Damn it is sweet!!! The tires are pretty cool too, and is that a side dumping exaust I see. If it is, WAY COOL!!!
lookin good like usual!
WOW. Thats nice. Looks excellent. That car has my favourite rims.
I prefer the GTS, but you're definitely doing a great job on this conversion! :bigthumb:
What sort of paint job are you ging to use on it, Zpectre???
It's got stripes... :D

I'll make the stripes less blurry. Just wanted to see whether I could make it work.
You may notice the stripes' paint doesn't go over the bodylines. This is because the bodylines themselves are modeled, which makes it difficult to match them with the colouring of the car's body.
wow. looks VERY good... nice work! :bigthumb: :bigthumb:
Quote from: Zpectre[...]You may notice the stripes' paint doesn't go over the bodylines. This is because the bodylines themselves are modeled, which makes it difficult to match them with the colouring of the car's body.
IMO they look more realistic this way.
Looks like another very clean conversion! What's the polycount btw?

Hi Nils! :D
I think if they were painted they would look more like they do in the real car, but I also like them the way they are now. Polycount is around 7,500, maybe even less since I forgot to check it.

Hi!
7500 - That's what I call efficiency!
And you're right about the stripes - I just thought of the way German Fire Brigades "paint" their vehicles in some cases - they use white as base color (cheap) and then put foils on top. These foils always have gaps where the bodylines are, but the Viper's stripes apparently don't. I still think it looks good this way :bigthumb:
I'd like to know how it's possible for NFSMW meshes that have so many details to have so few polies. Also, do you know when this baby's gonna be released Zpectre?
Its quality looks better than Martin Leps' Viper GTS, IMO
Everything looks better than ML's models now
I disagree...what about his F50, 360 CS, V12 Vanquish, TT, RT/10, etc? Plus he still makes great cars for WR2
Hey JRice80, Martin Leps made that cars on his own. Zpectre only converted it from NFS9. So it is originally the work of EA. So EA's model would definitely be better than ML's. :)
Quote from: JRice80I disagree...what about his F50, 360 CS, V12 Vanquish, TT, RT/10, etc? Plus he still makes great cars for WR2
EA's M3 is light-years ahead of his. Besides, IMO it's unfair to compare his Viper GTS model to EA's Viper SRT-10 because the former was built years ago, taking NFS4's poor graphics engine into consideration. WR2 has way fewer limitations than NFS4, allowing Martin to utilise his skill to the max.
The car is almost ready, but I'm traveling to the coast now, so the release will have to wait until Wednesday.
It looks great, another car aching for me to convert into NFS6 eh Zpectre ;)
OK, I'm working on the sound and would like to know your opinions on the samples I'm thinking about using. Here are they, in MP3 format:
Dodge Viper SRT-10 from MW >>> http://rapidshare.com/files/17644857/ViperSRT10.mp3.html
Dodge Viper SRT-10 (upgraded) from MW >>> http://rapidshare.com/files/17644958/ViperSRT10Tuned.mp3.html
Dodge Viper GTS/R from GTR >>> http://rapidshare.com/files/17645065/ViperGTSR.mp3.html
I know RapidShare sucks, but those are small downloads and thus they won't make you wait for too long. :D Please don't pay much attention to noises like blips and pops, since those can be fixed (most of the time). I'd like you to concentrate on the general tone of the car's engine. I'm aiming for a sound which is both aggressive and pleasant to hear - right now, I think the GTS/R is the one that offers the best combination of these factors.
Regarding the model itself, I've finally been able to give the stripes a sharper look. I also had to remap the top of the car because the stripes weren't completely straight. Between remapping and moving the vertices around, I chose the former, due to convenience.
A race between modern-age gentlemen... :D

Why aren't the new NFS games like this? Those MW models (along with Cooya! and Tõnis' V8 Vantage) definitely feel more at home in NFS4's tracks.
...That´s why we love NFS4!!!
And that´t why I love you for converting all those beauties to our favorite game! :D
Your conversions are always a pleasure to see... great work. Only the driver skin is a bit shiney compared to the one in the Aston Martin... maybe you should give him a little texture - feel free to use mine if you like - or change it if you like... It is really small...
PS: I hate Dato´s Aston Martin DB9 conversion... You can do better ;)
NFS4 is a real Need for Speed. UG and past aren't. That's it.
The sounds... I agree, the GTS/R one is the best of those three, although I can't believe it's an R, sounds quite weak. Anyway it's the best of those.
And about the model/texture: Maybe a closeup of the improved stripes? And now that I see the drivers of your conversions, maybe you should give changing hair-colors a try as long as you have a free alpha-channel ;)

I will. ;) Actually my next conversion will be the Carrera GT, which Dato didn't manage to make a good conversion of.
However, I'm afraid there's no space left for textures, as the stripes themselves are gigantic. I couldn't map just one half of the car and then mirror the other half, because there's a row of polies on the roof that isn't split in the middle like the others are. Because of this, I had to paint both the right and the left stripes in the TGA.

The driver is blonde because I'm blonde myself. :D Still, if it serves as consolation, you can choose between paintjobs with and without stripes.
I'll probably raise the volume of the sound or do other stuff to get a more aggressive note. This sample has potential, since it's the GTS/R's redline sound.
You are AMAZING!!! You have done some of the best conversions ever.
Quote from: XJ220NFS4 is a real Need for Speed. UG and past aren't. That's it.
I wholeheartedly agree
Anyway, the Viper looks great. As for your next project, I don't like Datos Carrera GT either, good luck on it
BTW TS: You are Ramos from nfscars, right?

No need for consolation as long as the rest is done so well ;)

At least it's of a level high quality, that's most important IMO. Good luck on improving it, though!

I gave up on the GTS/R sound (I didn't even try to do anything with it, in fact, since I was doing other stuff). I'll use the tuned Viper one. Somehow it feels cleaner and more natural.
Quote from: JRice80BTW TS: You are Ramos from nfscars, right?
Yes I am.
Viper uploaded.
OMG, thank you Zpectre!!! :bigthumb:
Can't wait 'til it gets here, i'll dl it for sure
It´s incredible that MostWanted cars can look so much better in an 8 year-old game than in MW itself... And with 7.500 polies it is only the B-level, right?
Can´t wait for your next conversions! - I love your work for our dying NFS4 community! Thanks
AAAAAAHHHHHH!! I WANT NFS4! Can anyone send it or something?
Just BUY it!!! :mad:
It´s pretty cheap... If you can´t find it in shops... there is always something to find at ebay.
I know... I probably can get it for less than 10 bucks... But I can't find it! And my parents won't let me buy on ebay... :(
amazon.com :D
all parents love amazon.
its just in their genes
I definitely have too much free time in my hands... :D

Viper has company now. I was in debt with the community after converting only the cop cars... Anyway, this is almost ready for release, it only needs dummies and some minor mapping fixes.

Great job, as always man. :bigthumb:
Very nice!
Just one thing: can you please change the headlights a bit... They are really off.
They have to look that way:
(http://img238.imageshack.us/img238/7983/headlightje1.th.jpg) (http://img238.imageshack.us/my.php?image=headlightje1.jpg)
Maybe just change the dark part below the bulps... but please do something...
...But your conversion is perfect as always! Thanks man

I'm afraid it won't be possible. NFS4 doesn't support various levels of transparency like MW does. As a result, those lines under the light bulbs had to be made opaque, with transparency between each line.
However, I can always use RGB 223 to make them have the same colour as the body and give them a fake glass effect. ;)
I knew someone would say something about that part... :D In fact, I was thinking about getting rid of those parts altogether, since, in some pics, the regular C6 doesn't have them (and I know for sure the Z06 doesn't). DanR didn't make them in his C6 either.
Nicely done, Zpectre :) I never saw this thread before and I just noticed all the cars you converted. Great job! I'll be off now, I have a few MW cars I need to test in NFS4 :P
Oh, and if you can, you should convert some cars from Carbon. :D
Quote from: Max911Oh, and if you can, you should convert some cars from Carbon. :D
That can be done? :eek3:
I don't think it can be done yet, but it shouldn't be too hard to crack. :)
That would be awesome...i want an XK, CCX, Challenger Concept and Zonda F in NFS4 so much
Quote from: Max911Nicely done, Zpectre smile I never saw this thread before and I just noticed all the cars you converted. Great job! I'll be off now, I have a few MW cars I need to test in NFS4 :P

I will. ;)
Quote from: Max911I don't think it can be done yet, but it shouldn't be too hard to crack. :)
Yes, it's possible. ZModeler 2.0.9 has an NFSC import filter. I asked XenTek to send me some meshes in Z3D format. I could just download the game, but it takes a lot of time and the people here are afraid that, if I let the computer on overnight, its components would suffer heavy damage. I prefer not to argue with them to avoid conflict, but I know this is simply excessive care (nothing bad would happen, with the exception of my electric bill being more expensive).
Quote from: JRice80That would be awesome...i want an XK, CCX, Challenger Concept and Zonda F in NFS4 so much
I'd like to convert all of those, but first I'll concentrate on the old muscle cars and a few personal favourites (Charger SRT-8, Jaguar XK, Audi Le Mans Quattro).
I would love to see the Audi in NFS4, sounds good

:bowdown:
nuff said.
I'm posting a new picture with modified headlights:
(http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/2704/headlightcorvettelm7.th.png) (http://img208.imageshack.us/my.php?image=headlightcorvettelm7.png)
Basically I changed the shape of that fringed part slightly and gave it the same alpha colour as the body. I did this since the texture was darkened after the resizing (it was originally a 256x256 texture but is now 64x64 in size) due to pixel condensation. If people say it's OK, I will release it tomorrow. The sound is ready (it's the same sound used by my police Corvettes, maybe a little louder for more grunt).
I wanted to work on the C6-R but decided it was time for a change of pace and extracted the DB9 mesh. After cleaning up all the mess done by ZModeler 2 in the extraction process (parts everywhere, gigantic side mirrors), I prepared the mesh for detaching and posterior mapping. Next will be the Carrera GT at last, that is, unless XenTek sends me the Jaguar XK first. :D
The track in the screenshot is Bergstrasse. It's worth downloading for the graphics, multiple routes and good amount of fog.
Double post.
That looks really good-there are only a few good vettes out there, time for a really good one
If you could convert cars from Carbon to NFS4 and NFS3 it would be awesome!!!! Make sure to include the 69 Camaro and The RX-8!!
Here's a list of what I'm quite positive I'll be converting next:
Alfa Romeo Brera
Audi Le Mans quattro
Audi TT 3.2 quattro
Chevrolet Camaro SS (1969)
Chevrolet Corvette C6-R
Chevrolet Corvette C6 Z06
Dodge Charger R/T (1969)
Dodge Charger SRT-8
Dodge Challenger Concept
Ford GT
Jaguar XK
Koenigsegg CCX
Lamborghini Murciélago LP640
Lotus Europa S
Mazda RX-7
Mercedes SL 65 AMG
Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 (if someone gets me the mesh from NFSU2 I'll be very much appreciated)
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII
Pagani Zonda F
Plymouth Hemi Cuda
Plymouth Road Runner
Porsche 997 Turbo
Porsche 997 GT3 RS
Porsche Carrera GT
Porsche Cayman S
Renault Clio V6
Shelby G.T.500 (2007)
Subaru Impreza WRX STi (yes, again; this time, with less polies and better textures from MW)
Toyota Supra
Volkswagen Golf R32
Cars I might convert:
Chevrolet Cobalt SS (to have US represented in B-Class)
Chrysler 300C SRT-8 (I love it but I love the Charger better)
Ford Mustang GT (Racer X's is good, but I'm picky and don't like having two 2007 Mustangs made/converted differently in my car list)
Lamborghini Murciélago (on request only)
Lotus Elise 111R (don't really like NFS6 conversions, since photorealistic textures look bad in NFS4)
Mercedes CLK 500 (not being an AMG hurts it)
Mitsubishi Eclipse GS-X (maybe on request, but slim chance)
Porsche 911 Carrera S (see Mustang GT's commentary, but replace Racer X with viktording)
Toyota MR2 (I'll have to see what it looks like first)
Cars I'm 100% sure I won't convert:
Audi A3 3.2 quattro (it's a damn civilian car)
Audi A4 3.2 quattro (see above)
Cadillac CTS (see above)
Chevrolet Camaro Concept (DanR would kill me)
Dodge Challenger R/T (Ground Shaker made an awesome one; I may convert it, however, since Jokinen's cars are no longer available)
Fiat Punto (the only way one could even think about putting it in NFS4 would be as a crappy traffic car)
Infiniti G35 (there is one converted from NFSU2 at NFSCars)
Lamborghini Gallardo (VSO's is good enough)
Lexus IS300 (it's crap)
Lotus Elise (the 111R will replace it)
Mazda RX-8 (I hate this car with a passion)
Mazdaspeed 3 (don't like it)
Mercedes SL 500 (pointless since I'm converting the SL 65 instead)
Mitsubishi Eclipse GT (a disgrace to the Eclipse name)
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX MR (EA screwed up and got the rear wrong)
Nissan 240SX (I like this car, but it's too slow for NFS4 IMO)
Nissan 350Z (plenty of good ones available already)
Nissan Skyline GT-R (see above)
Shelby G.T.500 (1967) (if anything, it's Victor's model that should have been put in NFSC)
Subaru Impreza WRX STi (2007) (the old one is more beautiful)
Toyota Corolla GTS (XenTek is making one)
Volkswagen Golf GTI (I'm converting the R32 instead, plus Freak-DS has converted one already)
I won't promise anything here, but if I had to hazard a guess, I'd say all the cars will be ready by the end of the year, right by the release of the next NFS, unless something comes up (job/university work/ESOL CPE exam/German classes/life in general). Actually, each car takes a day to convert if I work non-stop (I started the Corvette the same day I posted the pics and would have released it, had it not been for the headlights and the dummies), but it's not very often that I'm in good enough mood for the boring activity that is mapping a model.
Lastly, I alert you that my modeling skills are zero (well, maybe 2/10 after that HSV GTS I made...) and I do this merely as a hobby, so please don't ask me to do complex modifications on the meshes, since I may not be able to fulfill your requests.
Hell yeah include the Cobalt SS!!! For a small car it packs a whallop!!
Yes!!! The Corvette looks great now! The headlight change is perfect as the rest!!!
...And You are working on the DB9 - finally a perfect conversion...
Now put the Lotus Elise 111R from the "might convert"- to the "convert"-List and I will love you forever ;)
The NFS6 version is very bad: the front is totally off... much too flat- looks like it kissed a wall
PS: impressive "to do" list - You will keep NFS4 alive for a long time - Thank you!
Thats nice Zpectre. Really awesome corvette. :bigthumb: Can you send me the stock meshes(in .z3d format) of Eclipse GSX, Skyline & Camaro concept & full version of Toyota MR2 from NFS Carbon?Please Zpectre I need them to be converted to NFS9. NFS9 supports 3d doorlines which the cars of Underground & Underground 2 do not feature. :(( So it doesn't look good without doorlines. I will definitely 100% give you credit. For Mitsubishi 3000GT, ask Krystoff. He will help. :D You can send 1 car each in one month no problem.
I can help you with the 3000 GT mesh. Is your e-mail-adress still your hotmail-ID?
Lexus IS300 (it's crap)... no, no, no. lol. So I'll convert crap. :p
BTW many cool cars on your list! ...and what about giving me the files of the Elise :D I was just in the process of updating my HP2 conversion, but I noticed so many inaccuracies, that it'd be easier to fix if I built it from scratch... or converted a better one ;)

You're welcome! ;) Actually, when you pointed the mistakes out, I thought just the colouring was wrong, when in fact it was needed to move the upper vertices away from the bulbs, making the part a bit thinner and thus more accurate.

You want the base Elise or the 111R? I can only give you the former, since I don't have Carbon. I'll see if I keep the PC on all day, but it's unlikely.
BTW, I'll release the Corvette after tweaking the CARP file, which shouldn't take long. The one I'm currently using has extremely short gearing, resulting in unrealistic acceleration.
well..buddy.... its nice to see the list
well i am looking forward to see cobalt converted.
I'm gonna make a special group of cars in my NFS4 folder solely reserved for Zpectre's conversions, :)

You should now have an e-mail with the 3000 GT attached. Base Elise is fine with me :bigthumb:
@stylizer: what kind of performance help? either making the calculations or just some page displaying information about performance..u want to use as refrence?
Quote from: StylizerQuote from: Power^Steer|nGwell i am looking forward to see cobalt converted.
I am converting it. So be happy ;) I need some help in performance.:D
Hmmm, performance... Here is what I know in the CARP file:
General tag:
- Serial number: The same as the one in the FEDATA.
- Car Classification: Contrary to popular belief, this IS important. The numbers indicate the position of the engine in the car. Useful for engine damage calculation. 0 for rear/mid-engined vehicles, and 2 for front-engined cars.
- Spoiler function type: For use with OS parts only. The part will only rotate when it's set to 1. Set it to zero if you want an immovable spoiler.
- Mass: The weight.
- Spoiler activation speed: Does nothing AFAIK.
- Road bumpiness factor: How much the car bumps when going over rough terrain. Higher numbers mean more bumps.
- Top speed: Does nothing.
- Camera arm: Don't know.
- Maximum velocity: The highest speed the car will reach under normal circumstances. If it goes faster, the speedometer will stop. The value may not reflect the actual behavior of the car if the torque curve and the gear efficiency are set too high.
- Pitch roll factor: How much the car rolls from one side to the another when cornering. The lower it is, the less roll there is. Avoid setting this too low or the slightest damage will make the suspension start falling apart, producing that horrible noise.
Gearing/Engine tag:
- Number of gears: How many gears the car's gearbox has, including neutral and reverse.
- Final gear: Doesn't do anything, but I like to set it to the real values just in case.
- Velocity to RPM: Controls the maximum speed a car will reach in any given gear. Can be calculated with the NFS VTR Calculator by IH8COPS or the CarChecker program. Higher numbers mean shorter gears.
- Gear ratios: Does nothing.
- Gear efficiency: How well the gearbox transforms power into energy to move the wheels. Higher values give better acceleration. Higher gears should have better efficiency since there's little energy dissipation at high speeds.
- Shift delay: How long it takes to change gears. Lower is better.
- Minimum RPM: RPM at idle. Value should be higher with more powerful engines (highly tuned motors and racing blocks, for instance).
- Redline RPM: Maximum RPM the engine reaches. If you can't find it on the internet, note that it's usually 250-500 RPM more than the RPM at peak power (maximum horsepower).
- Front drive ratio: People have said in the past this isn't important; don't listen to them. This controls how much power is sent to the front wheels. Here are the values:
x = 0 >>> RWD
0 < x < 1 >>> 4WD (ratio depends on the car; usually it's 40% or 0,4)
x = 1 >>> FWD
Although NFS4's physics aren't exactly the best, they emulate front drive ratio almost perfectly. This is most noticeable in slippery conditions. An RWD car will have problems accelerating off the line and will spin its wheels unless you shift at low RPM, but has better handling since RWD cars tend to oversteer and you can't spin your car in NFS4 (not with the default grip settings at least); a 4WD vehicle has the best grip overall but suffers from understeer; finally, FWD cars torque-steer heavily when accelerating and, although they have good roadholding on dry asphalt, they understeer terribly on the wet and especially when snowing, to the point you are almost forced to let off the gas when cornering.
- Torque curve: Torque at various RPM points. Have fun changing the values. ;) Just keep in mind that turbo engines (especially older ones), in general, have peakier torque curves, and most high-revving NA (naturally aspirated) street cars have broader curves.
Gas/Braking/Realism tag:
- G transfer factor: Associated with the car's grip when cornering. A good approximate value would be half the mark the real car achieved on the skidpad.
- Front brake bias ratio: Just what it says. The higher, the more weight is transferred to the front of the car while braking, making your car slide more in turns while braking.
- Gas off factor: The rate at which the speed of your car decreases when you let off the car. Related to a car's aero coefficient. I believe a higher value makes the speed decrease more.
- Maximum braking deceleration: How strong your brakes are. Higher values mean quicker stops.
- Realism: All these values are related to the in-game slider bars in the tuning menu and modifying them has the same effect as moving those sliders.
Tires/Grip tag:
- Tire specs: What it says. Doesn't seem to do anything, but use real values just in case.
- Lateral acceleration grip multiplier: Higher values increase roadholding. Seems to have a large impact in the cornering of the car.
- Aerodynamic downforce multiplier: The amount of downforce holding the car to the ground. Higher values mean the car won't jump as much.
- Tire wear: Does nothing.
- Front grip bias: IH8COPS thinks it's related to weight distribution; the value would be the percentage of weight concentrated in the front. I'm not sure this is how it works, however. Front-heavy cars tend to understeer, and, when you increase the value in the CARP, the car becomes more prone to oversteering instead. Due to this, I believe it means the percentage of the weight concentrated in the rear, not in the front. One nice example is the Porsche 911 (one of the most rear-heavy sportscar ever made); it oversteers harshly and its rear weight is about 65% of the car's total weight.
- Tire factor: Does nothing.
- Wheelbase: Distance between the front and the rear axia. Can be found in data sheets.
Steering tag:
- Minimum steering acceleration: Higher values ensure quicker steering.
- Turning circle radius: The lower, the easier to turn at lower speeds.
- Low and high turn factor: How twitchy the car is. Higher values give the car's handling a heavier feel.
- Gradient understeer: The general behaviour of the car while cornering:
x = 1 >>> neutral
x < 1 >>> understeer
x > 1 >>> oversteer
Fiddling with performance used to be my favourite hobby in NFS4, but most of the handling stuff is unknown as of now. But these should help you make a semi-accurate CARP.
I confess I can't help but stare at the DB9 for a few seconds before clicking the RACE button, because it's such a beautiful car...

It still needs a couple of tweaks before release.
@Cooya!: I decided to borrow your colours for your DB7, they're really nice. :D
It does look great, how many polies?
Quote from: JRice80It does look great, how many polies?
7,260 polies.
Yea,and is there a version available for NFS3??? It looks cool!!!
Ohhhhh!! That's niceeee! :bigthumb:
Hell yeah it is!!! Any chance of anyone doing a RX-8 that has slightly tuned performance for NFS3, or perhaps a Chevelle, New Concept Charger, New Monte Carlo SS, or a Porsche Cayman S for NFS3 as well?
Quote from: Power^Steer|nG@stylizer: what kind of performance help? either making the calculations or just some page displaying information about performance..u want to use as refrence?
I wanted help in making the calculations.
@ZPectre Thanks for writing so much for me. :bigthumb: But I wanted help in making the calculations. :o I know that what you have typed. :D BTW Nice work on the Aston Martin. Looks awesome in that colour.;)
Thanks Zpectre for that wonderfull DB9... Now the collection is almost complete.
And yes, the colors of the DB7 are nice but not correct for this model... You should use my V8 Vantage colorset as this is the right one for the DB9 - I used the new Aston Martin 2007 colors for it. In fact they look almost the same - only the names are not as nice.
And can you please scale it a bit up to make it as long as my DB7? It would look strange if the DB9 is so much smaller than it...

There isn't really much to calculate other than VTR values and torque at peak horsepower.

I'll change the colours then.
I think I'll leave the scale as it is since I like the dimensions of the MW models. Besides, the model would look weird compared to the other conversions.
BTW, there's a strong chance it will be released today, since it's nearly finished. :D
whoa.. the DB9 will be the first aston i am going to download.... actually this car is real sexy and i am afraid hat (if i was db9 fetish..haha) it would make me mast**bate ... just kiddin....
Quote from: Power^Steer|nGit would make me mast**bate ... just kiddin....
Oh! !LOL! Me 2.
Great conversion! - I love this DB9!!!
Thank you sooo much....
But as I told you: It is scaled 2-3% too small even compared to your other conversions. It´s as small as your corvette but the DB9 is a 2+2 seater GranTurismo and should be bigger but that´s no problem as everyone can scale it as he likes - I will make my one bigger ;)
I hope to see more of these beauties soon... keep it up!
Love the DB9...what is your next project?
Damn Zpectre, tha DB9 is hawt!!!
Quote from: JerryRice80Love the DB9...what is your next project?
Carrera GT. :D However, it's gonna take a little while. The mesh is more complex than the ones I've been working with lately. Just mapping that glass engine cover was very annoying already.
XenTek sent me the Jaguar XK file so that's what I'm probably going to convert next. I'll have to build the map differently because of an additional tire texture (NFSC cars have the sidewall and tire tread textures separated from the rim picture), but it shouldn't be much of an issue.
@XJ220: I'll compile the Elise mesh, textures and sound, then send you the whole package.
Quote from: Zpectre[...]@XJ220: I'll compile the Elise mesh, textures and sound, then send you the whole package.
:) Woohoo great, thanks in advance!
Yay, an XK! 'bout time
I have a soft spot for blonde anglo-saxon women. The same can be said about the fine luxury coupés of Britain...
(http://img236.imageshack.us/img236/6148/xkep8.png) (http://imageshack.us)
The XK may have more of Aston Martin than Jaguar in its design, but it's surely among the most beautiful currently produced automobiles in the world.
First and foremost, if you must praise anyone, it should be XenTek. This project wouldn't have been possible without his contribution.
The Carrera has been fully mapped, but I don't know if I'll make a convertible roof. EA didn't model the car with a cabriolet option in mind (a quick look at the model is enough to confirm this) , so I probably won't make a removable top, unless someone asks for the model so they can build one. The more help I use, the better the car becomes. ;)
The XK looks fantastic...about the Carrera GT, they look retarded with roofs
Ahh! The XK looks good. (:
I agree that the Carrera GT does look a bit weird with a hardtop, but as HS supports weather modes, it wouldn't be wrong to have one IMO. So... well :cool:
yeah... surely this is the most beautiful car among the most beautiful cars in the world.. simplicity and elegancy...
well... Carrera Gt do have convetible option but if the option isnt in the game... then making removeable top is useless.... but it may work if there is no roof at all.. hehe
Quote from: Zpectre...surely among the most beautiful currently produced automobiles in the world. ...
you're high on crack! lol, honestly i dont like the XK at all :(

I don't know why, but this mesh has an excessive amount of vertices. I mean, you don't need 8,000 verts to make the smoothing groups in a 3,500-poly body... I'd like it if someone could help me with this.
Total polycount is 7,540.
:eek3::eek3::eek3::eek3::eek3:
That car looks amazing
:eek::eek3::bigthumb::D:cool::)

dont be shy Zpectre, put some more polys into the foglight base and the grille...that wont hurt too much.

7450 only? Quite fine... If it's for HP2, which I want it in :D
that xk looks really smooth. the rims are especially detailed-looking in that screen. the rear left side panel looks a bit rough to me. but maybe it's just me...
@ToyotaWish, it'd probably end up in HS and then I will probably put it in HP2. And maybe MW.

There have been updates but I haven't posted them. I can say I've already put the Carrera GT in the game and deleted the unused vertices in the XK.

That's one sweet Carrera GT, awesome work man! :bigthumb:
Yeah, looks amazing! awesome job, really.
Wow, the CGT is amazing!
Quote from: JerryRice80Looks better than Viper's, can't wait for it
der, its from carbon.
red mech noob?
Ugh...I know that...Viper's is the Carrera GT I currently have in HS...
An announcement: the release of the latest conversions will be delayed. The reason is that I'm preparing a surprise... I will update ALL of my cars with some new textures, poly flag fixes, better sounds and maybe even upgrades for some of them... However, I'll take my time to do it since I'm a little busy.
Meanwhile, I'll ask XenTek to get me a few more NFSC cars.
sweet zpectre! i'll be waiting for them. are you converting cars from mw as well?
Dude, don't you pay attention, Hes been Converting MW cars for ages!
hmmm.... late but perfect... was the first rule i was thought about modeling and conversions by my seniors here. :)
Just when I thought it couldn't get better, Zpectre surprises us with this!
Actually I'm converting that Mercedes CLK from MW and I expect to finish it before I go back to updating the other cars. I can't post pics because it hasn't been textured yet.
Quote from: HSVDrifterDude, don't you pay attention, Hes been Converting MW cars for ages!
sry lol... not my fault i don't download many addon cars. i hardly even look at the author actually. but its good to have people like zpectre to convert cars for mw... they look good ^^
Forgive me, almighty lord of the BMWs, for I have sinned...

It's nearly done. Also, you'll enjoy driving this car - it's heavy and soft, like the real thing. The short gearing of the 7-speed transmission (which is a 6-speed in NFS4 since I haven't figured out how to make 7 gears work without problems) ensures surprisingly fast acceleration off the line, although top speed is on the lower side.
will this car be available for NFS3? If I have asked before, please bear with me...I was at my dad's retirement party tonight and I'm half in the bag.
Ahhhhh! When's the XKR and CLK coming out for HP2?
patience man... There's only so much a person can do at a time, even someone as god-like as Zpectre... :p
Quote from: Car Freakpatience man... There's only so much a person can do at a time, even someone as god-like as Zpectre... :p
I'm not godlike (LOL :p), but you're right about the time. If I could work 24/7 on these you'd be seeing 2 releases a day.
Furthermore, I trusted HSVrules the task of converting the cars to NFS6, and NFS3 converting can be done by everyone, it's just a matter of renaming dummies and flipping the texture.
When will XK be released for NFS4?
Quote from: JerryRice80When will XK be released for NFS4?
Once I decide which sound fits it better. I don't have Carbon for reasons already mentioned, and no MW sound reminds me of the Jaguar sound in Carbon...
I may end up using the XK8 sound from NFS3 if I don't come up with anything...
I have carbon, i could send you sounds for the XK and all your future carbon projects. I dont which files they are though
Quote from: JerryRice80I have carbon, i could send you sounds for the XK and all your future carbon projects. I dont which files they are though
I don't extract them directly from the files, I keep the car at a steady RPM range then record a video with Fraps. I then open the video file in GoldWave and save it as a sound file.
If you have an analog controller you can leave the car at neutral then slowly tilt the stick until you reach the desired RPM range and keep the car at it while you record the video. It's easier said than done, though, especially if you have a shaky hand... :rolleyes: but that was how I recorded the NFS5 and the GTR sounds (in MW and NFSU2 I use other, more inventive techniques :D ).
Quote from: Car Freakpatience man... There's only so much a person can do at a time, even someone as god-like as Zpectre... :p
Hahahha. It's the damn high quality of the cars... I think I won't download them. I'd probably get scolded by my mum.
Remember this? :D

Don't be fooled by the pics. This is a completely new car. I've used the "b" LOD of the MW mesh this time, which allowed me to save nearly 4,000 polies compared to the old versions. Normals are infinitely better, as are the wheels. The rear brakelights use new dummies and the sound has been slightly modified (it has a higher pitch).
I'm thinking about making the Lancer my next car just to compete with it... We need more 4WD cars in NFS4.
BTW, the tracks are Norwegen 1.0, Dolphin Valley and Raceway 2006; this last one didn't have a night file when I downloaded it so I made my own.
Did you retexture the STi Zpectre? It looks more detailed now than it did before.
Quote from: TSDid you retexture the STi Zpectre? It looks more detailed now than it did before.
I'm using MW textures this time, but I took the liberty of fixing a few minor things like the lettering of the "Subaru Tecnica International" signs since the resizing process made the original texture nearly unreadable.

All of them already use MW textures except for some parts like the brake rotors. These parts are what's gonna be updated.

I should release all the latest cars. I'll finish the last details and release the Jaguar, the Merc, the Impreza and the Evo all in one go as an Easter gift. ;)
Good wrk, man. They look absolutely spectacular. Will any of these be available for NFS3?
how come the evo comes with enkei rims? can you not get them stock?
btw... when you say jag... you mean like the xk from carbon?
Quote from: bucksavageGood wrk, man. They look absolutely spectacular. Will any of these be available for NFS3?
NFS3 converting is very easy, I'll post something when I have more time. Basically you save the NFS4 FCE as NFS3 in FCE Converter, flip the TGA vertically with a program that opens TGA files (IrfanView is a good one and it's freeware) and rename the dummies in CarCAD or some other program that can read NFS3 FCE files. It's up to you to convert them since I don't have NFS3 installed and don't really want to dust off that old CD again.
Quote from: monkey.wesleyhow come the evo comes with enkei rims? can you not get them stock?
btw... when you say jag... you mean like the xk from carbon?
Some cars have rims by different brands... The CLK has AMG rims, the Impreza has BBS rims and the Lancer uses Enkei ones. And yes, the Jaguar is the XK.
I can finally say the cars reached final status. Now I think I'll search for pictures to make showcases.
http://www.netcarshow.com/jaguar/2007-xk/
there are some very good xk pics...netcarshow has all of those cars
Nice job on the Evo, it looks better in NFS4 than it does in MW. :D
Really cool work Zpectre!
The Evo looks fantastic - and so do the others! Good job!
Quote from: TSNice job on the Evo, it looks better in NFS4 than it does in MW. :D
lol... can't really agree with you there. but then it depends on the system you play on and it you play on pc it depends on what gfx level you played it on. anyways... do you have any finalized pictures of each of the cars you converted?
Damn, the CLK is sweet. :D
I've e-mailed Sergi about permission for editing Angel Lake, but, so far, he hasn't replied... I think I'll get in touch with KillRide (who's maintaining the NFSHS Expansion Pack) to talk about it and maybe even negotiate the inclusion of my version in his pack.
Meanwhile, I've got a book on fundamental rights to read, so I won't be able to do much this week. Probably an update or two, but, even then, not much stuff.
Expansion pack for NFSHS? IS ther also one for NFS3?
Lux nice man. :bigthumb:

Unless if you want to make it yourslef, then no. You should also pick up a copy of NFS4, you don't know what your missing. :D
I guess not. I like NFS3 and it is the only one I have now. I used to have NFS5 but it was my bros and he took it with him when he moved.

Just get NFS4 w/out UG included...it is probably about $5 on eBay

The upgrades have a bit of a mercenary reason behind them - viktording's car can be upgraded and I want mine to be downloaded, even if it's "just" a conversion (in the view of some people, being converted automatically makes it worse).
My only problem: I want it to be Class A, but it's just too fast for it...
A Porsche in A? I think that's only possible if it's one of those with a front engine or a Boxster S. But then again, it's an arcade game ;)
BTW it's looking great, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who appreciates the work this must have required! Maybe a pursuit version would support the civilian version :)

Well, the Corvette was light-years ahead of anything else in Class A, yet it was still considered an A car... If you drive it with manual gearbox, it's as fast as the M5, exactly like the comparison bars tell you. My 911 Carrera is as fast as the Corvette, but, on the other hand, its lap times are much better than those of the XK or the Impreza, because it's got more top-end power.
In real life, the new 911 Carrera S almost matches the 996 Turbo, however the latter doesn't have the technological aids from the former.
Wonderful job on the XK man. :bigthumb:
yes! good conversion lol... stupid locked porsche... i will hate carbon forever... it will be good to try this. nice screens.

No, because some people would start converting the bodykits and putting them on cars that don't deserve it, like the XK's and the 911's. On Imports and
some exotics, it's alright but bodykits shouldn't be put on certain cars. Period.

(http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/9335/golfod7.th.png) (http://img156.imageshack.us/my.php?image=golfod7.png)
It will be an FWD car (front drive ratio set to 1), and therefore very hard to drive on wet surfaces... Stay away from snow!!! Otherwise, a pretty fun vehicle.
No more projects (and releases) from me until like Friday, so...
hmmm... i have noticed that Zpectre is moving with best texturing.... and wheres the car??? i am gonna download it and drive the preet lady :D

I've got a tutorial which states that you shouldn't use any values higher than 0.5 since HS doesn't support FWD, so you'll just have problems with the overall handling.
Looks good anyway!

Visually speaking, NFS4 doesn't support FWD because the rear wheels always spin, but when I set the front drive ratio to 1 the car acquires some characteristics of FWD vehicles (mostly understeer and torque-steer in low-grip situations).
If you set it too high, for example by inputting a value of 100, it's like you're giving the front wheels 100 times the power the engine normally gives, which makes the car propel itself to the sky like a rocket. It's actually kinda funny to watch. :rolleyes:
The sound will be from the stock Golf in MW because we own a Passat 1.8 MkV and its sound is pretty close to the Golf's.
Would be great to have visual AWD and FWD support. But what you said in the post about wet surfaces and snow, AFAIK FWD cars are a lot better for those surfaces than RWD cars, that's why the NYPD likes the Impala so much.

Really? I remember reading that there is a huge loss in grip due to the front wheels being both the drive and the turning wheels. The front wheels would severely lose grip because they spin and turn at the same time.
EDIT: Hey, turns out you're right:
Quote from: Wikipedia[...]Placing the mass of the drivetrain over the driven wheels moves the centre of gravity farther forward than a comparable rear-wheel drive layout, improving traction and directional stability on wet, snowy, or icy surfaces.[...]
This is probably why a car with the front drive ratio set to 1, in wet conditions, accelerates so well in NFS, despite the large amount of torque steer that has to be controlled. Nevertheless, it understeers a lot... Maybe it's because understeering is related to stability?

well... you should never have rwd on wet surfaces in the first place... why do you think another enzo got crashed while whoever it was (something related to the movie "redline") couldn't stop at a turn? because when the wheels from the back are pushing the car forward... the front wheels are just being pushed and when they turn... it is likely that they will lose traction. fwd isn't too good either... since locking your front wheels while turning won't turn you anywhere but if you don't lock... you can turn way more than you can turn with a rwd.
More slower cars (this time the Audi TT):

Very nice!
...But the Audi has the big black rearspoiler so this must be the V6 3.2 Quattro version... Do you really think that 250 HP are slow?!? You are a real speedfreak then ;)
PS: Please take a look at the licenceplate dummy... If the european plate does not fit in its place then please use the US plate. It looks strange if the plate sticks out so much and I really hated that on your latest cars.
PM'ed Zpectre today, and he gave me the go ahead to convert his cars to NFS3. :D :D

It's the 3.2 S-Line, and it's not fast in-game... I've put real specs for it, and the Golf GTI nearly outpaces it. However, the TT 3.2 weighs a lot (1520 kg, a lot for such a small car), which may be hindering its performance.
I was going to fix the dummy (I tried to use Euro nameplates with Euro cars but in most of them it doesn't fit properly...) but I'm playing through Carbon and all my projects are on hold because of it. I'm amazed at how little money is available through Career - I'm in Silverton and barely have resources for a Tier 3 car, let alone upgrades. My DB9 can't keep up with cars to the likes of Murciélago, Carrera GT and Corvette Z06... I also have a Cayman but it's not very fast either. How I miss MW! By Blacklist #5 I already had Gallardo and Porsche 911 Carrera S, and money was the least of my concerns, because if you reran the races they would pay off the same amount of money...
At least the sounds in Carbon are fabulous... EA mixed different sounds for some cars and the results are great.
The weight should be the problem, especially on uphill sections, HS is very unrealistic, even AA cars have problems there when trying to accelerate from 0 kp/h.
About the plate, I agree with Cooya!, :LICENSE should look better. What you said about euro cars + euro plates sounds okay, but as these cars are the US versions, it's not so easy :p
I was taking a look at the textures extracted from NFSC cars and realised that especially the muscle cars with their stripes will be a little hard to convert without losing much detail. That lettering on the sides of the GT3 has started to haunt me already... To make matters worse, EA themselves used low-res drawings for most of the stripes, meaning I can't risk resizing them too much or else they will become useless. Luckily not all of the good cars (Murc LP640, CCX) require me to manage texture space to accomodate extra details, which makes the job much easier...
I'm thinking about converting ALL the cars from these games, regardless of there being a good NFS4 version of them already. This may hurt some egoes out there, but the meshes from the most recent NFS games (Most Wanted and Carbon) are incredibly accurate and run better in NFS4 than user-made models because these most of the time have higher polycounts. Of course, there will be an order of preference, so the Punto will probably be the last car I'm gonna convert. :D

I underwent surgery yesterday and during my recovery time I've worked on this:
(http://img296.imageshack.us/img296/2264/lemanshg2.th.png) (http://img296.imageshack.us/my.php?image=lemanshg2.png)
These Carbon cars are more complex and take quite a lot of time to convert without reflection bugs and the like... I think I've been working for 2 hours straight on this.
hi Z Great work man :) how old is this thread i havent seen it B4? heh.
Like a week old or 2 months or whaa.
I really like that Jaguar Converted one you did that sound,& Horn, is So Nice.
and it being slower is Fun! ,on GT`Lights Track lol Cops dont know what to do lol cya

Surgery, if it doesn't bother you may I ask why?
The R8/Lemans looks sweet too man.
the cars is looking good so far..keep it up man. I keep looking for you acars when they are converted to NFS 3..they are great cars!
I've uploaded the following cars:
Porsche 911 Carrera S
Chevrolet Corvette C6-R
Porsche Carrera GT
Audi TT 3.2 quattro
Volkswagen Golf GTI
Hopefully they will keep TS busy at least until I finish the Le Mans. :D

Septoplasty (straightening of the nasal septum). Quick and harmless procedure. I'm OK. :D
those for NFS 4?
Quote from: bucksavagethose for NFS 4?
Yes, but TS will most likely convert them to NFS3.
Sweet.I am looking forwards to the Audi and the two porsches myself.well the vette too, and the VW..they all sound awesome.
About time a good TT Coupe comes to NFS4, and good to see you're back

hi is this a Converted Audi? from the newer Nfs's, i wasent sure umm why are the back side wheels allways see thru :/ just wonderd why.. there that way.. wished they wasent, But Does look Nice so far Zpectre. [Edited] its the next day morning now, i wanted say i didnt mean to be Rude/mean in any way. i Like Zpectre's work alot. I just was asking about this,why this happens for.
That's to keep the polycount low, but IMO at least the rear wheels could use a rear. Otherwise: :bigthumb:
Ok i see ..Yeah poly Count being Low, is Good thing :eek3:
Like having No Bumper hehhaa (was joking) only. its early here. :D ;)
I heard you got Mail Nils :}

Actually they're supposed to be hollow inside. The inner part is covered by a 2-polygon mask I don't have the texture for.
Ok Pal have a Good 4th of July *Boom* Ok thats was my Sparkler going off ok
No biggy i guess :D ;}

Some guy sent me a PM asking me to convert the SLR and I thought, "why not?". But this one had already been in my plans for quite some time.
Ok, firstly what is the German Trio, and secondly, by SLR, you do mean the Mercedes Benz SLR McLaren, right? I
Quote from: bucksavageOk, firstly what is the German Trio, and secondly, by SLR, you do mean the Mercedes Benz SLR McLaren, right? I
1) Porsche Carrera GT-Audi Le Mans quattro-Mercedes SLR McLaren. Unfortunately it isn't a four due to BMW not having built a supercar to match these. :( Well, I guess if you include the M3 GTR you can call it a "Fantastic Four" or something.
2) SLR is the Mercedes McLaren SLR, a.k.a. MercLaren.
WOW Purdy sweet Looking Zpectre .. What Game is this car Converted from MW or an other i dont know all things about this. Also where can i DownLoad that BMW is it? M3 GTR.
I really would like trying that out PaL. I hope its for Nfs4Hs I can Trade you my Most Updated Celtic R.P.O. for it ok? ;) the GTR ;}
I hope Nils didnt give you allready heh, was a (joke)
They sound like one heck of a quad grouping of cars. I hope TS converts then to NFS3 soon.

The M3 is available here at NFSGarage. The one in my sig is version 2 which will be released in the near future.
All those cars are from either MW or Carbon. The ones that aren't in MW are from Carbon (because the MW meshes are that much easier to convert).
were is the car Ver.1 Located i tried finding in BMW GTR on list cant find on this site Pal. *cough* ok.
What cars are you working on now? You did such a good job on these last nes that I wonder what you will bring out next.
Quote from: -Aka-NFSWiLLwere is the car Ver.1 Located i tried finding in BMW GTR on list cant find on this site Pal. *cough* ok.
It's under "BMW M3 Collection". I've released it in a pack along with the regular M3 and the M3 GTR Streetversion.
Quote from: bucksavageWhat cars are you working on now? You did such a good job on these last nes that I wonder what you will bring out next.
Ford GT is next. :)
heha i was trying to beat U here pal LOL.. I found it ;) http://www.nfsaddons.com/nfshs/cars/BMW/1185/
hey so the 3rd upgrade what has the better umm Spoiler then?
They're separate cars, but they come in the same ZIP file.
Ford GT..is that the one from 2006 with the 5.4 liter Supercharged engine?
Finally a Ford GT for NFS4, the wait is over
Yup....and if TS will convert it to NFS3 sometime after Zpectre puts it out for NFS4, then I can use it too...YAY!!!!
Great to see you back working on conversions!
Just one thing: The SLR is worthless without a working spoiler/airbrake - NFS4 spoiler funktion can handle it perfectly ;)
PS: The Audi is damn fast... but still a different league as SLR and CarreraGT. It has the 4.2l -420hp-RS4 engine that makes it a Lamborghini Gallardo and Porsche Carrera competitor and therefore it fits better in class "AA" while the other 2 fits in class "AAA". BMW has a sportscar in the Audi´s league: The M6! - too bad that EA never made one... Victording´s is soooo highpoly... :(
I finished the Carrera GT & the TT, credits to Max Prez for converting the sounds.

That's the Audi Le Mans quattro, with a twin-turbo V10 and 610 bhp. ;) Actually I don't know what car EA put in Carbon because the rear is the same as the R8 production model but the badge texture says "5.2 FSI" which indicates the car's equipped with a V10 powerplant similar to the one found in the Gallardo and the Audi S6.

EA put the Le Mans/R8 concept in Carbon only because they couldn't get hold of a production R8. (unsure if it was because they weren't in production yet or because of cost) And essentially, the LM quattro is the RS8, a more powerful variation of the R8.

Does that mean you have converted them to NFS3? If so when will they be uploaded to the site?
Well, I've started to convert the Ford GT, and so far I'm disappointed...
(http://img216.imageshack.us/img216/3848/enginecg7.th.jpg) (http://img216.imageshack.us/my.php?image=enginecg7.jpg)
The engine's horribly blurred, which disgusts me. I've posted my texture map (the free areas are for the stripes) as well so that people may help me with it... Please, I'm in dire need of any kind of assistance!!! :D
no wonder with such a small engine texture...
to have more space you could use just 1/5 of the rim texture (like a piece of pizza) and map it 5 times on the wheel... that way you have enough space for a better engine texture
I think you could get rid of 50% of the taillight and 50% of the wheel texture... just mirror the mapping.
Hi Nils whats up.. :}
Zpectre, i Just emailed you and its not on this site.
Im sure it be better than this Thread now days ;)
Meaning, the Hassels...np.

Done the conversions & done with the uploading, gotta wait for teh administration to approve.
Sounds Like you Got it made again Buck! THX to TS CooL! :bigthumb:
The stripes are finally done after 4 hours of freeing space in the texture because of the NFSMW mesh's stupid polygon displacement...

The engine and other details will look better since I've managed to fit larger versions of the original textures into the TGA. I couldn't use half of the tire/brakelight texture because these parts are not perfectly divisible vertically, which made mirroring the alpha channel useless. Tomorrow will come the easiest part.

Seems like it'd be easier with some modelling. BUT this way, your work is even more impressive, working with what you've got. It looks great! :eek3:
Looks Great PooP.. L@@ks Awesome..! Yeah I bet that Stuff is hard as Heck
I understand it,But not as much as you do Zpectre ;)
Im happy its getting better for you buddy.
I need work on my Day/Weather Race file
i want that to look better with Night weather.. also.

@ Will:
Zpectre's Carrera GT is converted from NFS MW while Sniper got his one from HP2 ;)
AND the one from HP2 is the concept version while the one from MW is the finished production vehicle.
@ Zpectre:
Opinions? :D IMO the OS part is always cool, and one of your conversions equipped with it can't be an exception.

I scrapped the part and now I'm modelling a more accurate one. I've got nice reference pics but even those (which are the best I could find) don't give me a clear view of some details.
Quote from: XJ220@ Will:
Zpectre's Carrera GT is converted from NFS MW while Sniper got his one from HP2 ;)
AND the one from HP2 is the concept version while the one from MW is the finished production vehicle..
Im glad i finally got an answer :ugh:
Yes i Knew that ;) about the games,. But i didnt know the rest of the Car history story that you just told me.. So Thx Mate :bigthumb: ;}

This spoiler has the bars (heck, they are very simple, just 3 cylinders made in ZMod), although I think I'll still need to edit them to more closely resemble the real car. Does it make a difference? You can barely see them in the game...
L@@ks CooL! Zpectre i think its good enough ;)
Nice Zpectre, if you do want to get the details right, I can take a picture of the SLR in Gran Turismo 4 with the airbrake engaged.
Is there any chance of getting a Porsche Cayman S for NFS4, that in turn could be converted to NFS3?
Quote from: bucksavageIs there any chance of getting a Porsche Cayman S for NFS4, that in turn could be converted to NFS3?
Depends. I plan on converting the Murciélago LP640 and the SL 65 AMG and then I'll move to some Japanese cars (Supra, RX7, Eclipse).
If you can, include a RX-8 GT, and Porsche 924 S.
CooL Keep em Coming!! :D ;)
Im thx full u know ;}
Yeah man, you make some sweet rides. Keep it up!
Man, Zpectre. You're on fire! Keep up the good work! :)
BTW, are you planning on converting ALL the cars from MW and Carbon?
*agrees with all recent posts made*
Keep up the awesome work man.
Quote from: Max911Man, Zpectre. You're on fire! Keep up the good work! :)
BTW, are you planning on converting ALL the cars from MW and Carbon?
Yes, and there will be demand for them even after NFSPS is released, since I feel those models will be too highpoly for NFS4.
Yeah, some of the ones out theere now are really high poly. You do a good job of managing the poly counts of your cars.
This one will probably get me some girls... :D

And this will be my last one for a while. I need to make the showcases for all the cars and resume my student duties... Doesn't mean I'll be gone from here, though.
The ultimate G-String machine! Awesome! :D
I can't wait for its release. Keep up the good work!
ZPectre.man the audi TT you made is sweet and so is the Carerra GT. They both roack!
You'll be getting some just by sitting in the passenger seat. :p
But I'd prefer to drive it. :D
What track is that in the pic??
Sweet ride, we could always use more lambos around here.
Yep L@@K's ReaL Nice there Zpectre. yes im Happy your doing these cars!
Im ThxFull again. ;)
CV316 the Track
Looks Like Sergi's
Empire Back Streets Ver.2
Thx, Mr. Will.
OH, HOW AWESOME!!! Now I wanna convert that LP :D
Looks really sweet :) What's its polycount?
Quote from: XJ220Looks really sweet :) What's its polycount?
Believe it or not, but it's only 6,900... :D
Not Bad!!
wow!! that low? Impressive!
Yeah, that is really impressive. Any chance of getting a decent polycount 2009 Camaro Concept? I have one o got , at, another NFS site, and it won't run on my comp, I keep getting out of reserve menoy/texture memory errors when I try to use it. I think the poly count of the car is too high for my gfx card, but i do no know what the poly count of the car is.

In the not-so-near future. :)
Next few cars to be converted (which, thank God, are mostly NFSMW cars, easier to convert):
Mercedes SL 65 AMG (last bonus car to be converted)
Toyota Supra
Mazda RX-7
Ford Mustang GT
Dodge Charger SRT-8
The list may change because I may be "needing" to convert a car, but I'd like to do more slower cars after the last four I've done. Also I'm currently searching pics on Google of my released cars to make the showcases. Already found some of the M3 GTR. :D
(http://img507.imageshack.us/img507/2629/bmwm3gtrshowcaseas9.th.jpg) (http://img507.imageshack.us/my.php?image=bmwm3gtrshowcaseas9.jpg)
I will also release a new version of the Corvette C6-R, with new sound from Corvette C5-R. :D
NICE!!!! Btw, possibly could you send the mesh for the M3 and all the upgrades you made? I'm having problems with the .fce, it crashes in Zmod.
That sounds like on he@@ or a list. I'll be looking forward to the results.

Liar! LOL That's even lower than on ML's. Cooool. And sweet to-go list, I'm looking forward to that AMG!
Awesome list man, I'm almost out of room in the folder that I dedicated to your conversions.
Which cars do you need pics of? I have some good rare ones for the DB9, 996s, Vette C6, XK, some others maybe...and the LP640 for when you're ready

Post all you got. :D But I want some from the 996 GT2 especially. The showcases of the Carrera GT, SLR, Le Mans and Murcie have been done already.
Geez you are prolific!!! Keep the cars comin!!!!!
Audi TT has been updated. It should be available soon. Basically I used better textures for the front and exhaust grilles, resulting in a look similar to that of Martin Leps' TT Cabriolet and closer to the appearance of the car in MW.
SWEET!!! Can't wait for it!

Finally, more work for me! :D Been kinda bored this week.
Will the LP640's wheels be color-changeable? o.o
I like it when the wheels are black, but only on black, silver, or white body. I like silver wheels when the car is orange, green, etc.
Anyway, looking forward to it's release. :)

NFSC wheels have black texture. :(
black wheels looks good. ANy chances you will get a 911 GT3 RS here? Because if you want, MKIIITwinTurbo has the mesh for it which was done for NFS5 and sent over.

Shouldn't be too hard for you to brighten it up ;) Would IMO be a very cool feature.

I have access to all the meshes because I own NFSC and have ZMod 2.0.9.
Quote from: XJ220Shouldn't be too hard for you to brighten it up ;) Would IMO be a very cool feature.
I'm thinking about using manual scissor in PSP8 to cut the Lambo badge then increasing brightness of the wheel texture.
EDIT: Wheels can now be painted in two different colours (silver and dark grey).

I most probably won't update the lowpoly one because, quite frankly, it looks too boxy IMO. And I won't make multiple skins for this one because I have no more room for textures (therefore can't make stripes for the London/France skins) and this is first and foremost a texture update, with new brake rotors, tire tread, letterings and RPD badge. However, I'm accepting suggestions to improve its looks... :)
I will also convert the police Corvette Z06 from Carbon and make cop cars from my 911 Turbo, as well as a Murciélago.

The car's 7,500 polies so you will have some problems when using it with highpoly cars. Sometimes you can have two of them plus 3 of XJ220's Caprices and a 9,000-poly speeder, but on many other tracks, it will unfortunately crash. :( If you don't use it as replacement for, say, the Camaro, and use the CD cars as traffic, you'll be able to use it without problems.
Hmm i see so did you say that?, i can use this and over take the Pursuit Camero's then? so that be ok then so the game what uses, just 2 cars on the track then?. i cant remember.
thx Oyeah your Welcome also.. :/

Uh, Zpectre, did you release the Mercedes McLaren SLR and the Ford GT or the others in that German trio you mentioned yet? they were for nfs4 right?
Quote from: bucksavageUh, Zpectre, did you release the Mercedes McLaren SLR and the Ford GT or the others in that German trio you mentioned yet? they were for nfs4 right?
I didn't but don't worry, they will soon. ;) It's just that I always want to make sure everything's ok before I upload my cars.
I have another question. The audi TT you made is really awesome but the darn game crashes when I try to use it in Career mode. I start a circuit, and it loads mayme a thord of the way and them stops and goes back to the menu, after about 3 tries of this the game crashes. Also, for some reason the 911(996) collection you made.only the gt2 works for me, the 911 turbo gives me a ram out of ran error when I try to look at the car in the menu. I get this error on a few cars but most others are fine.
Looking forward to more of your cars, man they are sweet!

That's because of their polycounts

In the readme it says you won't be able to run with more than 5 opponents... And the 911 Turbo has a lot of polies, it's the heftiest car I've made with 7,778.
Gotcha. But I didn't run it with only 5 opponents and maybe only one or two of them was the same car.
Buck your Pc specs are just to Low sorry your Ram & Vcard is why i just know it. Thats why it happens. PaL :/ no offence
Quote from: -Aka-NFSWiLLBuck your Pc specs are just to Low sorry your Ram & Vcard is why i just know it. Thats why it happens. PaL :/ no offence
Yeah, with better specs you should be able to race against more opponents (I heard stories of people who ran a full grid of highpoly cars) but even then there's a limit. The menu can only go as far as around 13,000 polies.
Unfortunately the crashing problem will get worse in the to-be-released v2.0 of the Porsches because of the wheels with fixed normals (more vertices increased the size of the FCE files).
why is there gunna be a Ver.2 of the Porches :eek:
Quote from: -Aka-NFSWiLLwhy is there gunna be a Ver.2 of the Porches :eek:
Fixed normals and new brake textures.
Sounds like a Real banged up Job Buddy Night :D ;)
That's ok I can live with it.
Ok guys here's the Murciélago sound: http://rapidshare.com/files/47802792/MurcieLP640.mp3.html
The recording is a bit noisy but it's because of Fraps, it's not noisy in-game. This sound was converted from NFSC stock Murciélago. I'm posting it here becauase I'd like to see what you guys think about the quality of the 16000 Hz samples.
Hi Zpectre nice to see yah around here again :bowdown:
I Heard the Car Sound its Neat & Diffrent.. but i think it has to much of a Viberation Sound..? to when it Maxed out? But what do i know huh? :dunno:
thats my 2 Cents PaL. maybe you can fine Tune it better some how? ;)

This is Fraps' fault. :D
I dont know who Fraps is.
He must be a Newbie huh?
How did you make that Corvette C6 Sound
I Love that one? :D
Fraps is a porgram for sound recording/manipulating I believe.

Hi Zpectre.
Sorry for the delay on those conversions to NFS5, I had a big load problem turning fce to working z3d. But once again, I could convert all of your cars right? (This is the final ask before I start converting and stop asking for permission again :P)
You are gonna convert Zpectre's cars to NFS5? Friggen awesome!!!
@buck - Yes. I planned some for a while. First one will be in NFS5 is Dodge Viper SRT-10.
Again a very clean sound, no pops or something :bigthumb: I hope it has the horn of the Diablo?

Yes you have but please don't convert anything released before the XK because all those cars have a few bugs I intend to fix. The releases may also take longer since I'm thinking about maybe adding a dash view to the cars.
Quote from: -Aka-NFSWiLLI dont know who Fraps is.

Fraps is a video recording program. :D "He" is also used to take screenshots, but I prefer IrFanView for better quality.
That Corvette sound is from MW.
Quote from: XJ220Again a very clean sound, no pops or something :bigthumb: I hope it has the horn of the Diablo?
It's got both the horn and the gear shift sounds. :D
Thank you Zpectre. Yes, I wouldn't bother about those because they are a pain in the ass.
On a side note, here's the list I would convert. (I don't care if there's gonna be a new version :P)
Dodge Viper SRT-10
Audi TT 3.2 Quattro
Federal Pursuit Vehicle (Corvette x5)
Federal Undercover Vehicle (Corvette x6)
State Pursuit Vehicle Ram Air 6 (GTO x3)
State Undercover Vehicle Ram Air 6 (GTO x4)
Jaguar XK
Mercedes CLK 500
Aston Martin DB9
Lancer Evo VIII
Subaru Impreza WRX STi V3)
BMW M3
BMW M3 GTR
BMW M3 GTR Strassenversion
Porsche 911 Carrera S (997) (V2)
First will be the Dodge Viper SRT-10.

That's a hell of a list, can't wait to see the finished products.
You got that right; that is a freaking amazing list!! I can't wait to see the reasults!!!
This is an update done long ago but I think I should post it to check feedback... If people receive it well then release in a few days is a possibility.

You can't see it from this angle but the rear tire is much wider now.
Hi I was Wondering is it,ever so possible
to have a Big Nice Spoiler on the back of
this Car,like a Convertible option in
Nfs4 I wished it could have...
I Like the Wheels Zpectre..it took long while for the pic to load
on my slow isp. Im glad you had the time to post the pic ;)
That really looks good Zpectre!
I love all of your conversions.... and this LP640 is absolutely no exception! Good to see you back!
I'm always here, just not as active.
My next exam will be only on the 13th of September and not very hard so there's a possibility I'll get around to releasing these cars. I wanted to make upgrades but if I eventually do them it'll take a little longer to release. AAA cars would of course have only one level since they're already pretty strong. To avoid problems I'd make "car1", "car2" the same as "car", and "car3" as upgrade. I've already extracted the Carbon SL 65 which has upgrades but it's depressing to see all those separate parts the Carbon cars have. :D
Cooya! I posted in your thread at FMG-Forums, beautiful track! Love the tow-tractor.
As usual, awesome job ;)
BTW, What's this track and FMG thing?
Quote from: CrownVic316As usual, awesome job ;)

It's Memphis and Freak-DS' forum where the NFS4 mod is hosted.
Can yah post a link of that Place Zpectre :}
Is that part of the GT mod?
Quote from: bucksavageIs that part of the GT mod?
No.
Here's the site: http://raphael.krempel-web.de/forum/main.php. It started at NFS Streetdogs as an all-German mod so this is why it's a German forum. But I guess the pictures of some addons speak for themselves... :D Just don't push them to release it because they're working on it as they have time, which is not always.
Feel free to help too. :)
Thx Buddy for the Linkage
I cant read German anyways so maybe i wont
even make it that far to the Forum page lol?
L@@ks like you have to um, Register there also -
Just to get on there Forum that Bites... :o
Owell i couldent get in there?..
I can't get in either. Maybe Zpectre can post some of the good pics here...?
Quote from: CrownVic316I can't get in either. Maybe Zpectre can post some of the good pics here...?
I won't because I don't want to take credit for stuff that is theirs. At NFS Streetdogs there are some pics but they're dated.
Yeah I tried it too, and you have to register. You can use the automatic translation of IE to make it readable. It is far from perfect english but you get the gist of it.
one of the best projects you got Zpectre :D I hope i am the first to download and comment.
The last 5 cars have been uploaded. I've done it since I expect to upgrade my PC and I've heard stories of NFS4 not working with dual-core processors (Nappe1). I also don't know whether the game will be compatible with Vista.
There is a NFS HS dual-core cpu fix currently up at NFSCars. Maybe that'll help you out. As for vista...I dunno. You could try runnign a dual boot of some sort with XP so you could run all your other programs that don't like Vista.
What cars did you upload? Also, you talked about making an Audi R8....well I just d/led a car yesterday that looks like the shape could be modded to the R8 shape easily; it is the Audi Nuvolari Quattro from NFSCars. But you'd have to get permission for the author I suppose.

You won't need to convert the Carrera GT because NFS3 doesn't support convertible tops. :D
Quote from: ZpectreYou won't need to convert the Carrera GT because NFS3 doesn't support convertible tops.

I don't think the people will mind if I release one coupe version and one convertible version. :)
So Zpectre, does this mean we'll finally get to see your Mercedes Benz SLR MacLaren Ford GT and such?
I think TS will officially convert them (no doubt asking a reason why not).
I'll convert them once I get bored of them in NFS4. (never :P)
nah, I'll get on it sometime later this week. ;)
I don't have to wait for the conversions.I've had NFS4 for months now.....they rock Zpectre!!!!!!!!!1
Thats Rite!! You must have Some..
