Cars 1937 Auto Union Type C (WIP)

[Fat-Alfie]

F*&#ing hell!!

 

[Ryno917]

This really is looking absolutely incredible. Mind-blowingly good.

 

[Amir Vodokotlic]

I am guessing those screens are unedited.

With shader patch and motion blur. AC looks incredible.

Those screens are stunning.

 

[aphidgod]

Sorry, another batch of pics.

What are we, Canadian?

 

[Ryno917]

What are we, Canadian?

Some of us!

Yeah when it works, looks great! Here are some pics I took last night - nothing had changed from the LuccaRing ones I posted a few hours previous - but for some unknown reason the screens where totally overexposed!? No idea why, looked fine ingame.

That's the Italian sunshine
If I'm not mistaken, between this and the Ligier, you now have mods with both the smalles and the largest engine in AC?

Just claim it was intentional and call it art

 

[Bigwaved]

Wow. I am really looking forward to this one.

Probably Gary's tank (apc?) is the biggest

You dont uh... fancy a little side project?

Always. If you don´t plan on releasing within the next month I can certainly give it a shot

Even if I was (I'm not), I'd gladly hold off for some decent SFX! But really, I'm in no real hurry, gotta finalise quite a few things on the model/textures, then make LODs, and also physics is still very WIP right now. And I don't really work on this much over the course of a week, so still plenty time spare.

The thought of custom SFX for this is great though, there really is nothing that I know of that is quite suitable for this thing.

Take your time Gary! I've not finished watching everything related on youtube yet
Also my AI grid is not prepared either...but man am I stoked for that car

For everyone fluent in German, there is this book about the professional life of Alfred Neubauer I can recommend:
https://www.amazon.de/Männer-Frauen-Motoren-Erinnerung-Mercedes-Rennleiters/dp/3879431590
Its a fantastic read, and extensively covers the era of the pre war silver arrows, the times of Nuvolari, Carraciola, Brauchitsch, Seaman, von Trips, and stories and background on the Targa Florio, etc...

Looking for some more font finding help!

Not great pics, but looking for everything in this really if possible, Horch etc.

As well as these black ones

Let me know if you find something similar

 

[Ryno917]

That Horch looks mighty close to the old Bosch font. I'll have a little look

[EDIT] Nevermind, was thinking of something else. Not sure now.

 

[Fat-Alfie]

Horsch looks a lot like Uni Grotesk - not free but you might find a pseudo font

Omg, the sound of this thing is astonishing. Can anyone do it justice?
