  1. It sounds like you need to make sure the lights you want to flash are assigned to a lightsemissive material. I also would direct you to the tutorials section in order for you to see how the extras heirarchy should be set up.

  2. Command lines are your way of telling your game to override certain settings in your game, no matter what you have set up "in-game". Such as typing "-windowed" will run your IV in windowed mode no matter if you have fullscreen selected in the main menu. Like @TheChef said, there is no way to improve performance with a commandline.

  3. So in the world of 3-D modeling, you can model two main ways you can create objects. You can use polygons, (which are 4 sided, but sometimes more), or you can use triangles (only 3 sided).

    Benefits

    • Polygons
      • Sometimes good for creating smooth curves, or filling in square holes.
      • easier to manipulate than triangles.
    • Triangles
      • No hidden edges (a triangle is a plan so every triangle is completely flat).
      • What games use for polygon count and what they render.

    Drawbacks

    • Polygons
      • Can contain hidden edges.
        • Since in the world of modeling, everything has to be definite, you have to break a model down to it's simplest form. Triangles are that simplest form. Because each triangle is completely flat (a plane), the program you're using and the game know exactly the coordinates of the three vertices, and can draw the area inbetween. However with a polygon, you can have a 4 sided shape, that is bent in a weird way and has unexpected edges because it will eventually be broken down and split up into triangles. (Every 4 sided polygon is broken down into 2 triangles).
    • Triangles
      • Can be harder to model with
      • More time consuming to model with

     

    Moral of the story:

     

    I suggest you model with 4 sided polygons, but it is not illegal to use triangles or a mix of the two. Most of my modeling is mainly 4 sided but sometimes I have to fill in some areas with triangles. Just make sure that the 4 sided polygons are flat, and are not bent in weird ways and you should be fine. And remember to weld!

    - Happy modeling! :tongue:

    It was kinda hard to explain so I just marked on you image.
    Angle and dimension of that side part is little off, center area also need some work too.

    But other then that, I think it looks great man!

    Completely agree.  Dimensions are off. Grill also seems to be just a tab bit taller than it should be.

    Thanks for the input! I am working on it some more, have already fixed the lower center issues, just trying to get the indention dimensions right!

  5. I have encountered a few errors upon exporting.

    I have a material called "dark_grey" which is an interior 2, and is just invisible in OpenIV.

     

    Secondly, when I exported, it deleted my L1s. However, *I only made L0s and L1s* I don't know if this matters.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  6. I know that many people do not believe that I have the proper right to use my '13 PI Sedan bumper, so I am going to fix that. I am going to remodel it, and keep you guys updated so you can know that it is indeed my work. I plan to do this because I don't want any discrepancies for my sedan when it is released for V.

     

    Here is my car with no bumper:

    Here is the Forza 4 2010 bumper I am going to edit:

    And here is my old one (top) compared to the Forza 4 (bottom). So that you can see the differences from beginning to end:

  7. After a bit of thought, I have decided to leave the modding scene for IV. There is a lot of drama, and unneeded harassment to the point where it isn't fun anymore.

     

    I just wanted to make a small post to let you guys know I won't be releasing anything anymore, and that I hope you all have a fun time modding. :thumbsup:
