KILLMODE Preview!!!!!!

FoXx · Post by **FoXx** » Wed Aug 27, 2008 8:42 pm

Just finished up the paint and basic modeling, I'm sure it will have more to it when its released, and might have a different frame/wheels&tires/axles, idk - kinda like those though.. any thoughts and opinions are appreciated!!!

*check out the bowtie lights in the grille, they arent there except for when turned on, I snagged em from my old The Blazer truck, i dont remember if i made those or if they came from someone else... maybe inky or alpine??*

ummm yes, it looks rather flat, tho maybe thats cause its not from in game, but I believe someone posted a thread about making reflections and stuff on a truck. Perhaps that would be an idea

Otherwise its really very pretty, I want it

There you go, Foxx, you've just been mistaken for alpine. That should tell you something.

i did the shading thing! thanks for the tutorial link phin! and - yeah, being mistaken for alpine makes me feel pretty good ;) lol!

i used the stock blank bmp of carolina crusher to get my shading from, and it looks marvelous! too bad the pic quality doesnt really do it justice *stupid jpegs* - last thing on the list is to add some mirrors and what-not to it

thanks for all the comments guys!

Very nice work on the truck foxx!

A couple things i would suggest though,

- Open up the wheel wells in binedit so the tires fit inside of them. If you look at fiberglass monster trucks today, they have very wide openings to prevent body damage.

- As nice as those tires are, they will more than likely cause lag for people. I would make a version with non 3D treads as well to make all happy.

- Select all of the shock faces and set them to transparent texture for mtm2. That will make the black on the shocks invisible so they look more 3D.

Those are just a few small things that would make your truck look much better. It wouldn't take more than 15 to 30 minutes to do either, just some minor touch ups

very nice work on the truck, i'm really digging that paint job!

can you show me an example of what you mean about the wheel wells? i have a general idea of what you're referring to - as far as what it looks like... just want some clarification, thank you very much for the tips

shocks look awesome btw man!

here's an older truck similar to yours,

now here is a truck with wide wheel openings,

Notice how much of a difference there is. Gun Slinger seams to have wider openings than others though, but i used his truck because it's a very obvious difference.

Good luck with the rest of the truck foxx, I look forward to seeing the final product!

- i believe this will be the final version. any comments/tips are always more than welcome!
