New Project!

[Eddie (5speed)]

Ok...let's play; Guess what the **** I'm making.:cool:

I finally decided to start a new project, and after a few small hours I have the front almost done. It just needs very slight fine-tuning, but it sort of looks like a car.

The sooner someone guesses, the better I'll feel.^_^

(sorry for the quality of the pic)

edit: Hmmm....pic doesn't work.=[

[Justin Martin]

Sorry fivespeed, but I don't think attached images are working yet. :( Try uploading it to your server, i'm anxious to see it.

[Eddie (5speed)]

Thanks to DFS, the pic should work.:)

I see the editor's forum back up, can someone move this thread over there?

[Mike Henderson]

Looks like an Eclipse or a Talon to me. What do I win?

[Eddie (5speed)]

You win a thumbs up from me.-^
It will be an eclipse first, then I'm turning it into my Talon.:cool:

[BubbaChubs]

looks nice. i'm sure it will be since all ur cars are. if it's not a bother, in the next pic you post on the forum, could it have the mesh in the texture?

Anywayz, phat ride.

[Justin Martin]

Woah, cool! :cool:

[DFS_Hummerboy21]

Nice SH!+ Sherlock :D when I get the Database up people will be able to get all the stuff from your site but for now it's just a crappy template but you can get all the downloads. http://dfsspeed.racerplanet.com/fivespeed/ndex.shtml


I know that I am supposed to have it say index.shtml but hey I dont feel like it but I will anyway so dont complain about the template

[MattB]

:p , whoa that looks nice

[Remko]

Nice going once again, bud. Seriously. :)

[AccadaccA]

Whoa, I may not be a rice-boy but I really like the body lines, Eddie. -^ -^ Very nice airdam! (I think you guys call 'em "chins")

[Synetearis]

Dude, thats wicked!!! You are getting better and better every time, and this car just spanks ass, keep it up man the car looks really Rice... urr Nice:p

Greetingz, Synetearis

[Eddie (5speed)]

It's not riced out....yet.:cool:

I'm keeping it stock for now, but there will be different versions later on. Thanks.

[WillGTA]

bloody nice lookin. cant wait to get that buitifull eclipse.

p.s:where can i get that CRX, Synetearis??

[Eddie (5speed)]

I've lost motivation. This has never happened to me, but the love is missing in this car.:cool:

Small update for now, ignore the tires (they're just there so my car can touch the ground), and the textures are too light (I will fix).

[DFS_Hummerboy21]

dont give up yet.

After you make the battle-z then you can dump the car. hehe.

[Eddie (5speed)]

hehe, but then I will be technically done wont I?:cool:

Do you have any side pics of a battle-Z? I still don't know what the sideskirts look like.

[DFS_Hummerboy21]

Ooooh, I am fresh out of pics, the only ones that I could find are the ones that I got from vis racing and those were hard enough to find dude.

[BubbaChubs]

yeah, i don't even want to think of a polygon right now and 5 hours ago, i couldn't stop thinking about them. I don't know, motivation swings i guess. Well, the car looks great. (10x better than rk's) and whenever you feel like going back, it will be there for you. :)

Bubba

[BubbaChubs]

i guess i'm lucky, but the first search i did for the eclipse battle z i pulled up some owner's pages and looky what i found :) glad to help ya out fivespeed, whatever you need.

[BubbaChubs]

and yet another.. i have a couple more. email me if you want them. one of the front, and two gold a black ones.. cya

[Eddie (5speed)]

Sweeeeet! BubbaChubs, that really helps.

Does anyone have stock eclipse wheel? I need pics for 3D wheels (stock GSX).

[BubbaChubs]

hey five, no prob, i think i found pics of the gsx wheels and maybe if you were looking for a diff texture pic, i found one. it's one of the three in the pic, :) anyways,, i have the decal of the faf eclipse (blue and white one) straight on. If you need it, holla at me. And you think i could try to make a dash for your eclipse(s)? that should keep me occupied. Thanks a lot.

[BubbaChubs]

almost forgot, it's nice havin' you around Eddie. later. i have another texture pic if you want it, email me.

[Aussie Muscle]

whoa........baby. man thats good-^

[Eddie (5speed)]

I got everything I need now. Thanks!:cool:

[Remko]

Transwheel.com (http://www.transwheel.com/cart/cartmain.html) also has a couple of good Eclipes Rim photos, I can't tell which ones are stock GSX, but there's a good chance it's in there. :)
BTW, that new update pic looks super-smooth. 8)~

[DFS_Hummerboy21]

you can find out more on fivespeeds projects by going to http://dfsspeed.racerplanet.com/forum and checking through there. sign-up while you are at it. I got some pics of the soon to be battle-z or atleast it looks like it.


and you might even find his car up soon on the site when he is done and when the layout is done but I am working and he is working so everybody is busy. lol :HB:

[Eddie (5speed)]

Ok, I got three pics comming up later today.:cool:

[BubbaChubs]

don't release anything without the dash i'm making, i'll have it definitely by this weekend if i don't run into any bugs with the part naming or anything. i'm gonna make the gsx seats too, just sit tight.

[Eddie (5speed)]

Ok, new pics. Ignore the wheels on the second upgrade. The wheels are from antiguabill's skyline r34 which he's letting me use for the third upgrade (Thanks again-^ ). I'm not too happy with the sideskirts, so I might redo or fix them up. I still need to make darker door lines and hood lines.

Stock Eclipse

Upgrade 2
http://dfsspeed.racerplanet.com/1/up2.jpg

Upgrade 3
http://dfsspeed.racerplanet.com/1/up3.jpg

[BubbaChubs]

looks very good, very good. Is the fnf version going to be a 3rd upgrade? or just a different car? should i bother with the fnf dash, cuz if you release the fnf version as a new car, i can do both. Get back.. looks great once again. exactly like the eclipse.:HB:

[Eddie (5speed)]

Right now I'm thinking just a third upgrade. I don't want to release the cars individually because of the bad reputation and comments tunned cars are getting. I'm still thinking about it, but for right now it's just one car.

If you could make just the stock dash, that would great.

[BubbaChubs]

alright, i think i'll be done late tomorrow or sometime around there. got the doors, seats, and console left. do you want a hump where the turbo is? i think the only bad reputation is when all the newbees put on all the same parts from kremit on an rk base.. just gets old, but this, this is original mesh, and parts, and I guarantee will not be a disapointment, 1 suggestion, i think it would be better looking if you made the mi sign on the fnf version a little smaller, but it's all gravy, and they all look totally awesome.

[lllllll190]

Front end looks like a viper

[DFS_Hummerboy21]

How about making me a beta tester fivespeed. I want to use this car finished or not dude. I want it


I love this car but I LOVE the Battle-Z

[Eddie (5speed)]

I'm working on the bump. As soon as I get files organized I'll send you a copy DFS. Also to BubbaChubs. I don't like beta tests because I use CarCad, and I can't change anything on a car once it's been done. So aside from the addons on the upgrades, the car's shape is pretty much final.

[BubbaChubs]

I didn't really ask for a beta test, DFS did, anywho, i'll be on later tonight, to post a link or somthin to the dash.

[Eddie (5speed)]

I know, but since you're working on the dash I thought you'd like an early copy too.;)

[BubbaChubs]

alright, that's fine, i ran into a party :) so i'll have the dash out tomorrow, i know i said today, but didn't have time. Only a few minor things left. console and floor then texture it. I have the fnf dvd if you need the red decals that go on the bottom and back of the car. just holla

[BubbaChubs]

well, the console took me the whole friggin day to get right, and it's still not up to par. not much else left to do. sorry about the delays. just had a little problem. here's the dash without the seats, it looks better than what the pictures show.

[Eddie (5speed)]

Take your time friend. Your doing an excellent job.-^

[DFS_Hummerboy21]

Well I will post pics of my latest project ---(SCRATCH)--- soon because I feel that it needs to be in the spotlight but bubba is doing realy well and I think that tyhis will turn out realy damn good so keep up the good shit bubba. lol excuse the language, I am at the internet cafe and I am just cussin at everyone today so excuse it. lol hopefully I can get the kit done by tonight but its going to be a while before I get around to make the back. :help: :help: :help: :help:

[BubbaChubs]

cool deal DFS, all that really needs to be done to the dash now is the needles and back seat, then to texture, so it should be out pretty soon, took most of today to fix the console up, and it's lookin pretty sharp.

[BubbaChubs]

Eddie, i've got the dash mesh done... finally. Just a little resizing and mirroring to do and it will be ready for texturing. One thing, do you want the spoiler to show up in the back? If you do I need it in a .prt file.

Thanks for your patience fivespeed, I haven't been the happiest guy lately, i've been sick.

[Eddie (5speed)]

I'll send you the car soon with the parts. Hope you're feeling better. I just got over a fever of 103 degrees, so I feel great compared to yesterday.

[BubbaChubs]

Thanks, i'm in no hurry. i wish nfs supported multiple textures for one thing. If you need anything, i'll be here. I'm glad you're feeling better. can't say the same for me... :(

[BubbaChubs]

what color do you want everything in the dash view Eddie? once you tell me, i can be done. Thanks for letting me put the dash in ur masterpiece!

[Eddie (5speed)]

It's black isn't it? Did I send you the new mesh for the car? I can't remember.

[BubbaChubs]

no, u never sent it.. i have a lot of grey pics. it looks nice with black accents. black? or dark grey?

[Eddie (5speed)]

Ok, I just sent it.

I guess dark grey would be better.

[scp]

Nice wheels!! ^_^ Do you need any more? Like for the 1st and 2nd upgrade? I'll be glad to make them too.

[Eddie (5speed)]

Do you think you could make these?:idea: They look a bit complicated but you could take all the time you needed.
http://dfsspeed.racerplanet.com/1/Image1.jpg

I completely redid the back of the car, and I'm really pleased with the way it came out. I didn't think I could do that in CarCad.:cool:
http://dfsspeed.racerplanet.com/1/back.jpg

[scp]

Yah, those wheels'll be a little harder, but I'll do them. It's kinda hard to see all the details, though. Do you have any better pics? If not, that's fine, but they might not be perfect.

Dang that car ROCKS!! I just love seeing my wheels on such an awesome car! :love:


I'll start working on the wheels now!:D

[Eddie (5speed)]

I have these, but they're kinda small.
http://dfsspeed.racerplanet.com/1/Image2.jpg

[scp]

8| you weren't kidding when you said they were small! ^_^
Yah actually those'll help. I'll post a pic when I get them done.

[scp]

Well my first copy got destroyed by my computer =(( but I made a new one on my other computer. How do you like it?

[scp]

I forgot to tell you the poly-count. It's got 640 polies. But there are NO wasted polies. So the only way to reduce polies is make the wheel less round. I wouldn't want to do that personally, but it's your choice.

[Eddie (5speed)]

Excellent-^ . The poly-count is fine.:beer:

[Just_PlaYin']

:( i'm so depressed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! everytime i c 1 of ur new cars. I get depressed, here i am making shitty bodykits 4 cars or tweakin them. I dont know y i bother, i should b asking u 2 make cars, i dont know y i even bother. Ahhhh i wish i had sum talent. I suck. I'm sooo depressed, this car is sooooo good. That's it..... i quit. Scp love the rims as well. Every1 is so talented n i suck................. sweet as$ car dude. Love it, keep up the good work. Only one problem i c, well dont know if it's a problem. It's just the rear spoiler looks like it's been glued on. I dont know if it's the pic coz it looks fine in the showcase. And it could b moved a bit farther back. I dunno, ur da expert. I'm the shitty car modeller. l8a dawg.

[Eddie (5speed)]

Yeah, I can't fix that spoiler.

I told the tunners that they should move on and try to build their own cars. Tunning was good to get my feet wet, but once I stated scratch making the motivation went through the roof.-^

Don't give up. I should show you my very first cars that I never released.

[BubbaChubs]

totally agree. :) I just got done texturing everything except the doors and back seat.I made two tone seats, it's lookin nice..
What is the alpha channel i should use to not change any colors??

thanks for patience

[Eddie (5speed)]

Hmmm...I Know it's 255 for no color, 223 for the primary color. I think 160 for the interior color, 96 for the secondary color, and 32 for the driver's hair color. I might have switched some around, I can't remember.

[BubbaChubs]

well, i've been done, just need to fix the alpha channels. (given me shit) soon as i get a quick fix, i'll send you the stuff in ur mail..


if you wanted to hold back on that fnf eclipse and not release it till later, i could redo the dash, and help you get some texture photos to make it perfect, just an idea.. tell me what you think.

[DFS_Hummerboy21]

heh. make sure you put in the NOS tanks ^_^


I can't wait to get that battle-z eclipse so make some stuff quick. :HB:

[BubbaChubs]

IH8COPS (justin) is helping me sort out my guage problems, eddie, that eclipse is beautiful!!!

[Eddie (5speed)]

Well, I've been trying to learn Z-modeler and I've decided to just finish the car in CarCad. Here is the Eagle Talon so far. It still needs the back, fog lamps, spoiler, bump on hood, and new rims (I will try). I'm working on the interior, but I wont post pics until it's finished.
http://dfsspeed.racerplanet.com/1/talon.jpg

[scp]

-^ WOW WOW WOW... er wait.. I just said that at NFS Cheats...

But it looks just as good here! ^_^

[BubbaChubs]

-^ looks really good!! you will never go back to car cad once you learn zmod, it's that much better.. the dash is done, needles move, BUT they're not in the center, still sortin it out..
cya

[Eddie (5speed)]

Lee: Could you send me the TGA for the dash? I'm texturing the interior and you might have something I could use.

SCP: Thanks, I might have some questions on the rims.:cool:

[scp]

Just e-mail me when you need an answer. :)

[Eddie (5speed)]

I was playing around and ended up with these pics. Enjoy them for now.:cool:

Hmmm...this topic is getting long.:o

...Oh well, more pics.

GST
http://dfsspeed.racerplanet.com/1/mgst.jpg

[BubbaChubs]

I think your model makes rk's model look like a "sorry no good for nothing piece of shit"

Great job! -^ that's almost ready for release, eh? can't wait.

[Eddie (5speed)]

I like RK's cars. You really can't compare 1500 polys to 500 polys on RK's HB. I got to turn my game into NEED FOR SPEED: LAMBORGHINI UNLEASHED because of him, and the framerate (thanks to his cars) is incredible!-^

[BubbaChubs]

very true, he uses like 500 poly's with great use.. He is very talented. but ur model still looks better, doesn't change my mind. :)

[Nekar]

Wow! I've been looking for a Mazda Astina, but when I saw this, I changed my mind.
:HB:

[Eddie (5speed)]

Thanks!

The GST version is finished. This is good news for DFS who's been waiting for me to start the Battle-Z.:rolleyes:

Ok, on to the next eclipse.

http://dfsspeed.racerplanet.com/1/GST.jpg

[DFS_Hummerboy21]

Damn right that is good news I am going crazy for that car but my damn NFSHS keeps getting errors so I am just gonna have to wait for both things.
