Car Discussion Part 2 Thread - Back to the Future: Hill Valley mod for Grand Theft Auto: Vice City

Made because the last one had two blank pages and was really bugging me.

Had a question about how many guys besides k are making models now?

k and Gamester

so 1 other

Edited by: KITT

van looks great k. keep up the good work

Now how's the vehicles are doing? How many % of all vehicles are ready?

ones we need modeled wise? or ones we need permissions for plus ones we need modeled wise?

Erm, I'd take the ones modeled by the team :p

i don't even know whats being modeled by the team.

Ok, there is a slight problem with the VW. The side windows have a knack for making the doors and trunk disappear. I've tried just about every combination I could think of from re-texturing to remaking all the windows and doors. Nothing fixed the problem. So I'm just letting you guys know that you may have to live with disappearing doors if I can't fix the problem.

oh, that bug. Have you tried attaching the windows to the chassis_hi?

Actually that was the first problem, they made the entire car see through when they were attached. So I remade them and unattached and now it's only the doors.

hmm, try looking at some bus models and see how they do it.

Alright I'll do that and see what I come up with.

Ok, I've gotten all the doors to show up except the side door, why I have no clue. I can look through every other window and it works. I even bummed the glass from another bus model and used it. So I have a viable solution. It may not be totally accurate but I am going to tint the windows a bit so it takes some distraction away from the see through door. I am also going to crack open the two side windows so atleast you'll be able to see in.

at least it's closer now. Stupid vc transparency. Had the same problem with sa cars being converted to vc. Even a problem with stock vc. If you look through some cars from the back through the side windows, like on the infernus or for this mod, the flying delorean, the interior seems to disappear at a certain angle.

Yeah, I got it as close as possible it has to be a VC thing. I haven't done any cars with more than just the front and rear windows so it's kind of hard to figure out the exact problem. I'll keep messing with it and see if I can fix it but for now this will have to do. I was also gonna suggest for that car you sent me if I just removed the door windows so it looks like they've been rolled down if I can't get the transparency to work with that one either.

Lots of mods have that bug

Yeah, it's probably just a vice city thing but you never know

Oh and Delorean you still want me to make the skateboard and hover boards right? If so do you want a few different hover board models in one or just the Pittbull and the one Marty rides.

a couple would be nice. Maybe make like Marty's, but have carcols.

Do we have an extra to cover the hole on the vw?

there is a glass window that does spawn it's kind of hard to see if it is on or not. All the pics I've see the busses had a glass sunroof. I could make the glass for the roof darker if you wish.

I thought I saw glass, lol. Yeah, could be darker because it's unnerving to see a hole.....

Ok I'll be sure to do so, I should have the skateboard done soon I looked at this skateboard pack I found and am going to set the hierarchy up the way the author did it.

Will Marty's Toyota also be in the game, I've noticed that there was even the rolls-royce included which was the car Marty supposed to crash into... hehe.

Edit by delorean88us: Before you post other questions like this, do a search to answer your questions. If you actually searched Marty's Truck on these forums, you will find a car list and pictures of Marty's Truck WIP. I will not bother to point them out to you so go find them.

Edited by (in order): Delorean88us, Delorean88us

Yes they both will. I'll be making the Rolls and 2015 cop car soon. Marty's Truck is being worked on.

Should be easy to make the skateboard and hoverboard for you.
