Rerlja, u got art links for Focsu? I want to make Martini Focus and this yeaards Castrol/BP focus.
Nice to see ppl getting into this!. So here is a first preview of 2004 Lancer WRC. Some things will change by the overall theme will be close (I may decide to remove Evo body kit, since the new one isn't and Evo, but a lancer).
I really like the Net effect graphic, looked pretty cool.

hey relja mind helping me some time

i got it to work under a diff vinyl, but the orig vinyl still remains there, i just colored it black, anyway when i goto edit colors it only edits the orig vinyl, somehow those are still there, and my new one just overlays those ones, i can only change the lines separating the hexs because thats the car paint, i wanna get the hex vinyl all alone, and be able to color the hexs

CustomZ02 · Post by **CustomZ02** » 15 Jan 2004, 09:08

Ok I'll pack it up and put it on my site. Ill include instructions on how to install the vinyls.

UrQuattro · Post by **UrQuattro** » 15 Jan 2004, 11:45

I think NFSU site may want to consider creating some sort of download center for custom skins for NFSU, so we could share them. Also perhaps a new showroom where they onlly let you post modified cars (although that can be a little tricky). Nice cars ya all, CustomZ, sweet Subaru, Tommi Makinen's car. That number on the sied IMO is slightly too big, but a good copy!

CustomZ02 · Post by **CustomZ02** » 15 Jan 2004, 11:55

There's a number on the roof too. And thanks

UrQuattro · Post by **UrQuattro** » 15 Jan 2004, 12:01

I was thinking of changing the stars into 555, I have the graphic already. But I really want to finish the Lancer WRC first. That car is tricky as it's hard to pick a silver color for the vinyl on the side...

relja55 · Post by **relja55** » 15 Jan 2004, 12:30

if some1 knows where to download some graphic for 206 it will be nice if whants to share whit me if somebody need some other sites ill try to help them

UrQuattro · Post by **UrQuattro** » 15 Jan 2004, 13:04

Here is my 'secret' to make a close copy of a vinyl, that's not avail. to download. Get a pic of the car you try to copy. If it's pug 206 WRC - therez plenty around. Then i would use a vector graphic program - like Adobe Illustrator or Macromedia Flash - and just create lines and bend/stretch them according to the pcture you have right next on the screen. When done, just copy what you made into PSP. That's as close as you can get. The key in using vector graphics is that you can stretch them as large as you want, and they won't lose any sharpnes(resolution quality). Vector graphics - it's like FONTS used on computer. No matter how big they get - same clear quality. And clear quality is important. Look at my Subaru WRC and Red Bull Dakar Golf - u'll see that I used vectory, esp. the Subaru is a good example - the swoosh sign is very clear to read and see.
Hope this helps someone.

UrQuattro · Post by **UrQuattro** » 15 Jan 2004, 14:33

ur definately moving along, make sure to delete the MASK file image, and then paste the mask - because if you just paste it over, the mask images sometimes will overlap. But good start man.

diaper eater · Post by **diaper eater** » 15 Jan 2004, 15:23

hmm delete the mask? so dont edit the mask, but change the vinyl to b&w then save as the mask? then will i be able to change the color of my custom one in game?

relja55 · Post by **relja55** » 15 Jan 2004, 15:51

i dont even open mask i just save vinly and then use desaturate and auto contrast and than save overwrite mask Some sites if someone knows where to download decals please let me know

UrQuattro · Post by **UrQuattro** » 15 Jan 2004, 16:00

yeah, think that's what you do to avoid old vinyl appearing underneath the new one.
