================================================================ Car Information ================================================================ Car Name : Leopard RT4 race truck Car Type : Original Folder : ...\cars\catrt4 Install : Unzip with folder names on to the main ReVolt folder Top speed : 30 mph for Rookie, 39 mph for Pro Drivetrain: RWD Weight : 4kg ================================================================ Author Information ================================================================ Author Name : Cat EMail : JZA80ToyotaSupraRZ@hotmail.com Homepage : http://www.freewebs.com/redpersiancat ================================================================ Car Description ================================================================ My first scratch made & vertex shaded body mesh. Mixed RWD with a heavy body, so it was a pain giving the truck enough power and making it stable at low speeds. Design based on the Mercedes-Benz Atego Race Truck (just used pics, no blueprints). "Leopard" will be my division for diesels & heavy-duty, like Saab's Scania & Mitsubishi's FUSO. PLEASE, DO NOT IMPORT THE BODY PRM INTO ZMODELER, THAT WILL KILL THE VERTEX SHADING!!! ================================================================ Construction ================================================================ Base : There isn't any, it's a scratch made model. Poly Count : 170 for the body. 126 for each front wheel (x2). 190 for each rear wheel (x2). 4 for each axle (x4). TOTAL POLYCOUNT: 818 polys. Known Bugs : None ================================================================ Programs used ================================================================ .Zmodeler 1.07b: mesh creation. .RVshade (RV Minis 5): essential for post Zmodeler export. .prm2hul: collision file (.hul) generator. .Blender 2.5x: vertex shading & tris to quads conversion. .DOSBox: for getting the Chaos RV tools to work on Win64. .RV-sizer (Chaos RV Tools): for scaling the RC Bandit axle. .RV-count (Chaos RV Tools): for calculating polycount. .Ulead Photo Express 1.0: texture creation. .GIMP 2: for fixing pureblacks and minor tweaks. .D2Archiver: for ripping textures from Hard Truck 2. ================================================================ Thanks, Accolades & Credits ================================================================ We want to thank: .You, for downloading this car. .All the RV community that keeps the game alive. .The smart people at RVZT, ORP & RVL. .Adam, for telling me how to UV map in his GT2 conversion tut. .Jigebren, for letting me beta test the Blender plugin, helping me with the vertex shading and beta testing this truck. .Textures ripped from Hard Truck 2/King Of The Road (by SoftLab-NSK) & NASCAR Racing 2 (by Papyrus Design Group). .Rim texture from Test Drive 6 (by PitBull Syndicate). .Chrome window texture from Bakusou Dekotora Densetsu (by HUMAN Entertainment).
