NB's car modding thread!

Hey all!

 

I'll be releasing all my car mods under the wonderful name of DD EV Outfits, that's Danish Dynamite Emergency Vehicle Outfits in full. nationalism

WI!

I couldn't resist my slogan, or the logo, or being silly.

 

What kind of mods will you be making?

My quality assurance is that the mods I make is the mods I use, I'm not going to make a mod that I wouldn't use myself. That being said, I want to try something new or different.

 

My mods will be inspired by European equipment, especially Danish cars as we have a lot of unique and different ways of fitting lights to emergency vehicles than it's typically seen in the US.

I'll mostly work with US cars like the Crown Vics, Chargers, Impalas and pretty much any car model I can get my hands on.

 

I remember thinking that it was annoying that I always ended up with different cars that had different equipment on them. That's why I aim to release "theme" based mods, each release will usually contain two or more cars , similar to what you get with my 2011 Charger pack or my Chevy Power pack. Each car will bring a different asset to the mod while coinciding with the overall theme of the pack. It'll give you, the player, more content to enjoy.

 

What can you do?

I can do a lot, from photoshopping skins to scratch modelling lights and other equipment, I even botched together a 2011 Charger PP!  It's still receiving tender love and care for future releases which will hopefully reduce the textures used.

 

 

Below is links to the mods I release as well as background information on certain models that I have either made myself or extensively modified, hopefully someone can use this information to improve their modding skills:

Thanks!

 

Whoops, accidentally pressed enter.

 

There's more Chargers to come in the future, I'm seriously infatuated with that car.

 

The base model still needs a little work, I can cut out a few texture files if I re-mat parts of the mode.

NEW RELEASE:

 

 

 

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RwS7KMuaTcM

Package contains two models, a marked patrol car called Allan and a unmarked patrol car called Dan.

The marked unit are equipped with Setina PB-400 and PB-5 Pushbar & fender wraps, Federal Signal Arjent lightbar.

The skins are set up for carcols.dat, the recommended carcols value for the marked car is:

0,0,0,

Edit your carcols.dat and replace the values for the slots you installed the car model over.

The unmarked car can use any option, or left as is, colour can be changed in-game using a trainer.

The marked car (Allan) is equipped with the following lights:

  • Federal Signal Arjent Lightbar
  • Whelen® LIN3™ Series Super-LED® Lightheads mounted on pushbar & fender wraps
  • Mirror-Beam™ ION™ V-Series™ Mirror Mounted Super-LED® Series Lightheads
  • Wig/Wag headlights
  • Hide-A-Ways fitted on rear lights

Lightbar top is set as clear, Red/Blue glass option included.

The Stealth/Slicktop car (Dan) is equipped with the following lights:

  • Whelen® Avenger™ AVN Linear Super-LED® (AVN2**) Mounted below rearview mirror
  • Wig/Wag headlights
  • Hide-A-Ways fitted on rear lights

The lights on the unmarked car was decided on the basis that a unmarked car will not be involved in the same type of tasks as a marked patrol car is. Unmarked cars typically do not need to warn other motorists in the same way as a marked unit does. A unmarked vehicle spends less time responding to calls. Additionally, a unmarked unit is rarely on-scene without at least one marked unit.

The Avenger is positioned in a way that will increase the likelihood of other motorists seeing the car in their mirrors.

Wait, I thought the slicktops were meant to be female?  Continuity error much?

 

I thought you were supposed to stay in my basement along with Caine. Shut up and get back to the treadmill, we need power for the rest of the night.
