After a long long time, I decided to make this mod better than it already is,
as it was my first GT3 car, and my first mod to have staff pick, I decided to start a rework on it, in terms of physics and 3D
after a long time I succeeded in getting its physics right, in terms of aerodynamics and weight distribution, the car now behaves 100% like a real Porsche
in terms of 3D, I started by redoing the interior, it took me a while but I managed to make a very good interior for it, since the old one was very low poly.
On the outside, it will receive some 3d touch-ups, such as new details, and probably an improvement in the 3d scale (this will probably break the skin template).
for now I've updated the physics and a new interior
It's a very well done GT3 graphically, maybe the most beautiful GT3 mod in the game, but unfortunately it's not very competitive with the other GT3s; in fact, it's the slowest of all the GT3s, for various reasons
the weight distribution is wrong, it should be 53/47 (maybe even 54/46 since compared to the M4 GT3, the mustang has a much larger engine).
some things on the mod tubes are wrong, like the position of the engine (which is too far back and also too low), the tubes also need some tweaking
tyres need a small adjustment in size
and about the aerodynamics in general, it's very weak compared to the new generation GT3 mods (which this mod should have BoP)
this mod, even though it has less drag than the GT3s, manages to be the slowest on the straights of them all
I'm open if you want help with this mod, it would be rewarding to make the physics and aerodynamics of this mod
The interior will be from my ARDO G8 GT3 LSM mod, as there isn't a significant difference between the 2019 R8 GT3 and the 2022 R8 GT3 EVO II, I'm just going to make small modifications to make the interior look more realistic
no problem for me, I'm interested in this Jelcz M11, it looks a lot like the buses that were used in my town in the 80s and 90s xD
I just hope some reviewer sees this thread and tells me that these models will be accepted in the lfs so I can build them, since I only have 2 mod slots available.
Well, since my mod was rejected, I'm going to post some proof here (I hope) to show that YES, these 3ds models are 100% legit and made by Victor Borges (creator of the 3d models and mods for OMSI 2)
His profile on the ViaMep website, the largest Brazilian OMSI 2 mod site currently available, where he posts all his mods, and always leaves the .blend link editable for anyone who wants to make a mod of his buses separately: http://omsi.viamep.com/author/victor_1711/
below you'll find some screenshots of Victor Borges' posts in the OMSI BRASIL V2.0 group, of him showing various photos of the 3d modeling process, screenshots of the finished models, photos of him when he was modeling in ZModeler, screenshots of him asking members of the group for photos to help him make the models.
As you can see, the posts are from before 2022, up to posts from 2018
I just want these buses to be published, since when I said I was making these buses on a brazilian lfs discord, a lot of people were happy that they were going to see another brazilian urban bus on lfs, even more so made with quality
EDIT: I sent Victor Borges a message and he sent me 3 more photos to prove that he made the 3D model. Unfortunately, he said he doesn't have photos of all the models, just the VIP I, which is the one in the photos.
After some time at the LFSE, VIP 4 is 90% complete, with only the skin template and the modeling of the underbody of the vehicle missing, since the model is from OMSI 2 and doesn't come with the 3d underbody.
After the VIP 4, I'll be starting VIP 1, I've reduced it completely and it's already in the LFSE
After some time searching for reliable sources of Brazilian urban bus models, I found a website of an OMSI 2 mod creator that contained several bus models.
After some time reducing the 3D model in blender, I saw that it was possible to bring this model to LFS, so I decided to try to contact the owner of the 3D models to ask permission to put them in the game.
I sent him an email, but after 4 days he hadn't replied (the email was probably inactive)
So I decided to be a bit "daring" and ended up sending him a private message on his personal facebook, which I found in a Brazilian OMSI 2 group. He replied and authorized me to upload his 3ds models to LFS.
Victor: Hi man, fine?
Me: Hi all good
Victor:Yes, you can use, I'm glad to hear it will be reused in another game.
Me: I'm glad you let me use it
