hey, they are quite nice, but maybe you could add some clouds to the reflections also?

fernbay reflection map is in dds directory and its file JAskyday1_E.dds

I'll add some clouds where nescesary. Maybe I'll edit the sky-maps too, so there will be some non-clouded sky's (only for the circuits outside the UK, like Fern Bay and Kyoto of course). :P

But for the clouds I will have to wait a few days, since the reflections are based on real-life, and there are no clouds here at the moment.

try this:

you will find lots of huge res clouds pics (need to register tho..)

Thanks XsX, but I will just use the original clouds from the sky-maps. Works quite good I think:

me and kidcodea did some hires skies for lfs, if you wanna check - http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=245

"Kidcodea and I", Don :P
Very nice job on the textures! Can't wait for the finished product!

Link to download?

Damn, this reflection textures are really nice...more realistic
Want to have it now :>

Greets,

I think these look great! If you look at a picture of a real racing car or any car, you dont tend to see as much clouds reflected in the paint work as much as you do in the normal lfs reflections. I think they are gonna look spot on and hope they are taken into affect with new patches
Keep up the good work!

Great work! Even if you just alter the Fern Bay reflections, I would be eternally grateful. I can't stand looking at the cars at that track.

This looks great ! Good job
and i love http://www.cyxian.nl/screens/refprev2.jpg that sunset reflection !!!

This rock

keep it up !

And here it is!

The low-res is the same res as the original textures.

See first post for screenshots.

Enjoy!

Looks absolutely spanking gorgeous. Download hi res, and I'll use it too

A must-have mod methinks...

Are these reflections for Blackwood also? I wish there were more hires textures, I have 256MB of vram, and LFS only uses up 30MB of it!

They are for al circuits, and all conditions.

Darkone is trying to talk to me on MSN, but I keep ignoring him whilst I gawp at FZ50 GTR's at Westhill at dusk

great great work!

Just installed them...





... OMG :Eyecrazy:

I like them, but I have just a couple things to say:

- I think there is far too much blue used in the normal day reflection.
- I also think there is too much orange in the dusk/evening reflection.

This is most noticeable on black cars. The day lightmap simply envelopes the car with so much blue! Just looks unnatural to me.

Here are the new and old lightmaps respectively.
