Will there be a body creator (to make a body from scratch), or can you create bodies from scratch already. I really want to recreate this body from the Bentley Continental GT (My Favourite Car Of All Time)

Hopefully, because then when v12's (possibly W12's) are released, i can recreate the car

There is no tutorial yet as to how to set up the car body and I have only seen one livestream so far when the devs were making a body and setting it up ready to go in game (and I know they have probably streamed this many more times before), so I have no idea what you have to do. There should be a tutorial eventually, but the devs have a million and one other things to do as well.

You will be able to build new car bodies with 3ds max though, yes. And we will eventually do tutorial videos for that. It's not easy though, and you'd need to be quite skilled at 3d modeling to get good results.

Re: Modding Tutorial 2 - Taillights
Posted: Sun Dec 14, 2014 7:40 pmHmmm, assuming you've done the skinning step correctly they should just WORK.
Send me the files and I'll take a look when I get a chance.

Posted: Sun Dec 14, 2014 11:13 pmI can get everything to work but the materials. The UV mesh just won't make the texture tile no matter what I do. I have 2 finished models, but I can't release them because the materials are just solid colour.
