RELEASED-wip Motorpark, Romania 0.4.0

[luchian]

Almost done with the kerbs. Actually it's not the modelling, but the texturing that takes time because almost every one of them is different

 

[luchian]

Lil' progress (thank you friends )

 

[luchian]

After the first batch of tests, main feedback was that kerbs are too narrow. Therefore, they have been widened a bit. Until we can measure the real ones, these will do.

 

[Johnr777]

Looks good!

Did you take reference pictures when you were there?

 

[luchian]

I did, but not enough . And not too good. Looking at those that I took for kerbs.. it's like I was high

 

[Johnr777]

Could we see them? Nice to have general reference material

 

[luchian]

Sure. Anyone in particular ?

"Generally" they look like this

 

[Johnr777]

The stuff that can be used for tracks in general, like the wall, kerbs, and tire stacks.

If you don’t mind, I can make textures out of them and will return the favour and make a pack for us to use.

 

[luchian]

Aaahh, no I don't mind at all. I will search through and select those that might be useful. Will share them gladly . For the kerbs though.. don't get your hopes up .

what camera ? & what lens ? @luchian

 

[luchian]

Canon 550D, 17-40 F/4 L USM.

 

[Pixelchaser]

nice lens. id love to try these "L" lens. I recently got 55-200 lens and a 50mm f1.8 prime which is just amazing.. less wide the better for capturing stuff to use for content. got any top down views of the surface?

This group needs a drone! That would be cool and very useful

im working my way there. really getting into the photography thing.... my bro` has the mavic pro, just waiting for weather. this mavic pro the statistics are insane for it, people go through about 3-4 per year, sometimes you turn them on, and away it flies, never to come back.

..well technically there was an offer. But unfortunately it did not "fly" in the end . That would be perfection though, in terms of texturing and layout.

this is the funniest thing I've heard today

 

[Pixelchaser]

I think the track job itself needs an industrial drone with a tuned lens for the job we would need.

I have the galaxy s10 btw. send it to the sky ! insane camera quality and options. will do long exposure and super fast f stop

@ Blender crowd:

I need to add some 3d grass on the track asap to help with orientation. Are you guys using THIS method to do it, or is there a better/smarter way ? (just a few pointers are enough, I'll fill in the details).

I couldn’t tell you how to even open a file in blender , 3dsmax here. For us it’s as simple as creating a small quad, and apply a scatter tool with random z rotation.

 

[LilSKi]

No we use the particle system. No idea who came up with that method you posted but yeah we don't do anything like that.
