Nice! Also the reason everyone was messaging you for permission is because you sometimes say in your file DO NOT CONVERT TO GTA V WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM ME or something like that
Oh really? I forgot putting something like that in there, I guess at the time I assumed I would still be modeling and to be safe added that in. That way no one could release it if I was still in the game. Well that's understandable then

Hello all, I hope everyone is doing well. I've been getting a lot of PM's asking for permission to convert my unlocked DEV GTA IV models into GTA V. I don't mind at all if you want to do this, that's why they were released unlocked in the first place so that people could use them as they please. The only thing I ask is that if you do convert it to GTA V and use it on your model, that you credit me for the original work. I hope by posting this in the forum it will help ease down on the PM's and give a more timely response since I don't come on here very often.
UPDATE: I was informed by a poster that some of the readme files state that you need my permission to convert models. Like I said above, no need to ask anymore, consider everything fair game for conversion to whatever you want.
Thanks,
NickieB

Thank you to everyone for your kind words and an even bigger THANK YOU to anyone who donated to the fund. In only 23 hours they surpassed their goal of $10,000. Then a goal of $20,000 was set and the current donations sit just over $25,000! The fundraiser goes until Sunday when the funeral starts, then they will be presenting the family with the funds.

Unfortunately my stop back at the LCPD:FR isn't under the best of circumstances. Please keep this fallen Wisconsin State Trooper and his family in your prayers. Only about 3 months out of the academy he was fatally shot while contacting a bank robbery suspect here in Fond du Lac Wisconsin. Gunfire was exchanged with the suspect and Trooper Casper was fatally wounded. He was killed on his first day alone in the field.
There is a Facebook page in remembrance of him, please show support even if its just to "like" the page. The only thing I ask is that you be respectful if you post anything - https://www.facebook.com/TrooperCasper
There is also a go fund me page setup for his family if anyone is interested. Of course I'm not requesting that you donate but if you see fit its greatly appreciated. They are trying to raise $10,000 - http://www.gofundme.com/troopercasper
Trooper Casper your cleared 10-7, 10-42. End Of Watch 3/24/2015

I do I have two in fact

Second and third picture is me and my buddy that went to the actual house/neghborhood of Fast and Furious (Also seen in my profile pic)
I saw those photos and I was going to say "Wow that looks a lot like the house from the F&F movie" before I saw that it was in fact the actual house. Nice EVO, always loved those. As for myself I have a 97 GS-T, 5 speed, I was young when I bought it and I wish I would have waited for a GSX. Its just a toy now that I only drive during the summer, lightly modded, Apexi exhaust, K&N FIPK, BOV, short shifter, some gauges. Its nothing special but its clean and fun to drive. I don't have the same sort of interest in modifying it like I use to, I'd rather work on something a little more modern, so it will probably be sold soon enough. Regular DD is a '13 Malibu.

I'm using this right now:
'?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>>
And there's also that Raptor that came out in December:
I did a few Christmas tree cars. That first link that he posted has a lot of lights but no HG2's. Here are some more that I made that might fit what your looking for.
HG2s:

Lots of lights:

I also have this Explorer that I never released, it has HG2's, (well its actually the HG2 demo car) If you want it just PM me and I'll give you the link

I Am surprised you were even able to find those. If you need help photoshopping let me know, It doesn't look to hard to do what you want.
I know, so was I. Honestly I just need the car painted black and the ford PI steel wheels applied. I'll PM you the 2100x1300 res photo i have of the first one and you can take a crack at it if you want.

Oh my.
It turns out 98% of car pictures are from an angle. Ugh!
If i find any good ones, I'll send them to you for sure!
I know! I turned to the site hoping someone snapped a photo one day and they have one laying around. Below is a perfect example of what I'm looking for. Besides the color/wheels of course. I have a feeling I'm going to end up using the photos below and just editing it in photoshop to be black and have the correct PI steel wheels. I wanted to try and avoid having to do that because I want to keep as much of a real looking car as possible.


EDIT: So i played around with the top one in photoshop and it doesn't look that bad changing the color of the car. Obviously a genuine photo would be optimal but I don't have a lot of time so I can't be to picky. I'm going to scout the Ford dealer tomorrow in between classes to see if I can get lucky with a PI sitting around or even a black civilian Explorer

Community - I need your help. I'm working on a project for a local dept. and I need some decent side/rear shots of a 2014/2015 Explorer. Preferably straight on shots, nothing on angles, the color being black with the PI steel wheels, and without any graphics (ie an unmarked car or a car waiting to have graphics applied). The higher the res the better. I know I'm asking for a lot but my searches aren't turning up what I'm looking for and I'd really appreciate any help anyone can offer. Feel free to PM me or just post links. Examples below.

You must use zmodeler at some point in the process. Zmodeler is a must and you can do everything that you need to do with zmodeler. 3DS is a extra option that has better features and is easier to model with. As he said above, you can't use CAD programs. If you ask anyone what they use, they will say either Zmodeler, or Zmodeler and 3DS. Its not like graphic design where you have countless programs to choose from and can easily move across different platforms. Unfortunately thats just the way it is. There are some good tutorials out there to help get you started in zmodeler.

Here in Wisconsin, or at least my local sheriff's dept. you need to have a minimum of 60 college credits to even be considered. You don't technically have to have a degree, just 60 college credits. Although 60 credits is almost enough for a associates anyway. Doesn't mean that you'll get hired if all you have is the 60 credits and nothing else but thats all thats needed to apply.

Pfff. I find this laughable, so a gang of terrorists is plotting an attack on Britan? AL-Qaeda wouldn't stand a chance against them, The UK is pretty powerful country.
Exactly like Yard1 said above, the US was one of the worlds superpowers but they still flew 2 planes into the trade towers and the pentagon killing thousands of people. They have resources, and with those resources comes access to things we probably can't even imagine. Now they've shown that they have the brains and ability to implement these attacks so we must take them seriously. If you think about it when it comes to mass transit, buses, subways, etc., if there was an organized attack throughout the course of a day or multiple days think of how many people you could infect with some virus or disease. In short time we could have a huge problem on our hands, be it the USA, UK or wherever. They found the cracks in airline security to make 9/11/01 a success, so I don't doubt them in the least to be able to find the cracks somewhere else.

Just Stopping To Say Hi
in Discussion & Suggestions
Hello all,
Just figured I'd stop in and say hi. Most of you probably don't even know who I am (or was). Congrats to Sam and the crew on such a successful mod, you guys are killing it. I can't believe how many people stream LSPDFR now and how popular it is. Its nice to see too that people are still converting and using my mods from GTA:IV. Its crazy after all these years its still going. I do miss this from time to time, but I'm out here doing this in the real world now. I hope you all are doing well! Stay safe out there.
PS: To all who have messaged me asking, YES, USE MY MODS, convert them to GTA: V (just credit me). That's what they are there for!
