IMSA GTX Project

That Skyline looks REALLY cool! I'm not sure what I could do with it though.

I apologize for my inactivity. I have been without an ISP for about three weeks and it was rather painful. I managed to get a few more cars converted included a different version of that Skyline. I'll post some shots later.

I still have a little more work to go on the next pack of cars but not very much. Mostly little details like camera eyepoints and gauge ranges since everything seems to be working.

Cant wait to see what you've got done,

as for those models. I was thinking someone might be able to convert those models and modify them accordingly for them to work in Rfactor, I'm not sure what formats those would be, but I know the Blender program works well for that process for a lot of people. we use it to build monster trucks for Rigs Of Rods.

Interesting! I'll take a closer look at it.

I converted a Nissan Skyline 2000GTR earlier but not the C10 version. I am looking for that right now.

I have good news and bad news. The good news is my current ISP is much better and I decided to release single cars as they are ready. I'm up to twenty cars in the set now but most have one issue or another. I decided to go one-by-one and get each car working fully and then release it. Other good news is the 240Z is really good shape and the eyepoints for the LHD cockpit seem pretty good.

The bad news is its brake lights are not working. I though they were but they aren't. As soon as those are fixed I'll upload it.

Following the 240Z will be the RX-7.

Excelent news,

20 car set sounds very awesome.

cant wait marvin, really enjoy drm even more since you added some awesome cars

if you used the dr30, maybe you could create something like this to go with the datsun and mazda?

I absolutely love the Group 5 Skyline. There are several Japanese Group 5 cars that looked really cool. The Celica probably saw the most action world-wide but some others like the Skyline, Silvia, and Bluebird were really wild-looking cars too.

If I am not mistaken, the latest game from Simbin or what ever they are called at the moment has that Skyline in it. I wish we could get it into RF.

Great news guys! I 'borrowed' the brake lights from another 240Z and they work pretty well for the IMSA car. I need to tweek their positions just a bit and the 240Z will be ready to go, complete with LHD and RHD cockpits. The RX-7 looks pretty good too so there might be two new cars out tonight.

There are are a couple of others that also look pretty good so this should be a fun week.

[zychotic1]

dancing with joy!

cant wait to see em

[marvinwankerstein]

The Datsun 240Z is ready and you have PMs with the links.

I checked out the RX-7 and it appears that I just need to adjust the eye points and it will be ready to go.

[marvinwankerstein]

The Mazda RX-7 is ready and PMs have been sent.

Next up is the Group 5 BMW CSL.
