I decided to create a thread where I can post videos that I create and upload to my Youtube channel.

I hope you enjoy! Any feedback is appreciated. :)

I dig that old Taurus!

Thank you! I may do a public release soon, but I just have one minor bug left to fix.

 

Since my first video in IV (GTA IV 1986 Ford Taurus LX - OCP Cruiser), I've made vast improvements and updates to the model, making it pretty much the way I wanted it to be.

 

Also, speaking of Taurus videos. :P

 

3) GTA IV: Robocop is Back

Oh my god, you did not, oh my god, i'm releasing DPD officers.

I did. :P

I plan to put together a pack of the following variants:

- Civilian

- Police Department (pushbar and non-pushbar)

- Robocop (film) generic OCP cruiser (pushbar and non-pushbar)

- Robocop (film) Alex Murphy's cruiser (seen in the previous video)

 

The difference between the two Robocop variants include:

- Stock headlamps vs. Round modified headlamps

- Pushbar and non-pushbar variants vs. Pushbar only

 

The Police Department variant will look similar to how real Taurus police cars did at the time, such as this one from a film:

Jesus, i love you, release date?

I wish I could give an exact date, but I still need to make a change to one minor bug. After that, I need to make a few more skins for the other variants.

 

I apologize in advance if I take a little while to release.

 

EDIT: If anyone would be interested in helping me out with skins, please message me.

 

To give you an idea of what additional skins I will be looking to create:
- 1980s - 1990s LCPD/NYPD style skins (from 4 up to 15 liveries)

 

Also non-car related:
- 1980s film OCP Police Department skins (to replace the LCPD Cop skins)

 

Proper credit will be given, if you help. :)

It's amazing! It is very accurate and well done!

Thank you. :)

It's my first scratch model car, so I did the best that I could. I may post another video and/or some screenshots of the other variants, when ready.

Well, first off, my respects for taking the initiative to model this all stuff.

 

Second, would be any chance to make the reflection of the car bigger? I have the slightest idea of modeling terms and this all stuff so I'll just throw this picture here.

 

See the difference of reflection/material/whatever you call it between Taurus and Impala? The Taurus would look more realist imho.

Hey Strike!

Thanks again. The reason why the 86' Taurus has more of a matte finish than the other cars is because I made the specular texture a completely black/dark grey image.

 

To increase the reflection, all I need to do is make that texture brighter; however, the reason why I did not use the default texture is because my Taurus' body is very low poly (only about 4,000 - 5,000 polys). Due to this, reflections get stretch on the car because GTA IV creates reflections by polygons.

 

In addition, the version of my car that you have is an earlier beta version. Because I've made changes to it, it's been vastly improved and I can increase the reflections.

I may send another version over to you before release so you can see if the reflections have been improved. :)

Oh, so it basically depends on the poly amount, now I see why some low poly cars have so weird reflections... And I'd be glad to try the new version ;)

Indeed it does. It's not the best thing for Rockstar's engine, but I guess they don't really need to change it considering that they don't want their game to be modded. It's a little known thing that most modders don't realize. :P

I'll send you a new version soon. :)

The idea to create the following video came from the mention of the film by Olanov in >this topic.

Die Hard has been among my all time favorite films, and after seeing Weazel Plaza in the GTA V map, I couldn't resist!

My God did I love this. Amazing job, again. Just for the record.

Thanks again, Olanov! If it wasn't for that post you made, I probably wouldn't have thought of this. 

 This is fucking epic, man. Gotta love Die Hard!

Thanks, strike! You can't beat the classics.
