Car.shd Help anyone?

[aadilf1]

I would like to remove the shininess away from the wheels off cars when i convert from GTA SA but i just don't know how to do it?

Can someone help me. also picture tutorial would be great!

Hm , Can you show a picture ?

If you use vf_standard in car.shd instead of vf_reflect, you don't get reflections. Might also try specular=0 0 0 if necessary to get rid of more shininess.

just take a look at that rolls royce im sorry but i didnt understand that (the one about the rolls royce)


stereo il try yours

MAJOR EDIT: I just had to rename the shd tga to the tga of my converted car for example my car


EVEN BIGGER EDIT: I changed the name and it still is shiny also i change the specular thing to 0 0 0 0 and still shiny

do the material names in the dofs (check with racer modeler.exe) match the shader names?

Hello, i'm sorry to ask, but is it realy a problem to take a look, for the first basic steps, in a existing car? The lambo for example....
It's not hard to find the glass texture and the shader part for it...there you see how it works...realy^^

[ammods]

yeah but the tutorial from boomer isnt there...thats my point..think you should learn to read a bit better perhaps...

Ammonds,
My "Build a car in Blender" Tutorial IS in the link posted by Alex. Please clean your glasses.

There isn't a lot of info about shaders in it but it might help.

 

[aadilf1]

ammods that is quite offensive, keep this forum clear of any pathways to flame or rage


Thank You

Also its called 'Build a car in Blender'

ok whatever...i wasnt "having a go" i dont things like that...and fyi boomer i dont need glasses lol, the only glass i like to look at is the bottom of a beer glass LOL,..as for your tutorial..that was what i was looking for...obviously a communication breakdown...all the best everyone

 

[boomer541]

Ok you are forgiven. My tut doesn't have any cg shaders info in it, only the old shaders. To find shaders get a good car like Tibs Jaguar, one that has cg shaders and use them as a guide for your work.

 

[ammods]

i've tried, to copy over the data from another shader, and it makes the car look dark, and i still cant work out the glass alpha channels, given up on it for now

 

[boomer541]

The glass alpha channels indicate that the glass image is a .tga image with an alpha channel (mask). copy a glass image from another car.

 

[ammods]

nah not possible, because my car is a "race" version and anything else would be a waste of time...
