Hallo,
Month ago I decided to made a 'little' work - to fix damaged model for IRL2k2 carshape by Róbert Szikszó. I've started to work with original 3do files(indycar.3do, dindycar.3do, roadcar.3do and droadcar.3do) and found that I need to completly redone it to make a fix. For me it was more easy to make 3d files and than convert them to 3do. Because it is long process and I don't want to repeate it in near future I decided to fix Reynard'99 carshape too. But I didn't fix only original carshapes, but also some modifications of them. So what I have for this time:
IRL2k2 body (original by Róbert Szikszó) + Dallara2k3 + GeForce2k3

Reynard'99 by Róbert Szikszó (original)
+
Carshape for modified 2001 Reynard carset (2001v2 carset) based on Tom Smith's 2001 carset by David Recalde, Tom Smith, Mark Gill and Edwin Roman
+
Edited Reynard carshpe to look more like '95 cars by Oliver Karaula
+
(in progress) Modified LolaB02 (Federico Macias) body

So here is this files. Each of archives have next folders:
car_parts - all car details except damaged parts and main car 3do's;
damaged_parts - damaged parts for the car;
wheels - Robert Szikszo's 3d wheels;


I use DooDAT program to add/remove files from dat-files.

2) damaged parts from 'damaged_parts' folder;
3) main car 3do's (indycar, dindycar, roadcar, droadcar) from 'IRL2k2' folder;
If you want carshape without sidepots winglets use main car 3do's from 'irl2k2\without_sidepots_winglets' folder. For this option you need 3do's from 'sidepots_without_winglets' folder.

To install Dallara2k3 carshape you need:
1) carparts from 'IRL2k2\car_parts' folder
2) damaged parts from 'damaged_parts' folder;
3) overwrite some of them with files from 'Dallara2k3\parts' folder;
4) main car 3do's (indycar, dindycar, roadcar, droadcar) from 'Dallara2k3' folder;
If you want carshape without sidepots winglets use main car 3do's from 'Dallara2k3\without_sidepots_winglets' folder. For this option you need 3do's from 'sidepots_without_winglets' folder. If you want speedway carshape with front wings is moved forward (2005-present carshape) use files from'Dallara2k3\speedway_frwings_2005' folder.

To install GeForce2k3 carshape you need:

There is also change program from carsets by Alessio Grossini (blackcat). I made little edition of it. To use it you need:
1) to install one of carshapes;
2) add files from 'sidepots_without_winglets' folder;
3) place change.bat, change.dat, choise.exe, PACK.EXE and UNPACk.EXE to the car folder;
4) replace all 'indy06' names (indy06.dat, indy06.pck are important) in the change.bat with name of your carfolder;

4) main car 3do's (indycar, dindycar, roadcar, droadcar) from 'no_cam' or 'with_cam' folders (car with rollbar camera or without);

If you find any bugs tell me, or if you want to make some improvements I will help.
For example if someone want to make present IRL carshape, I can easaly remove mirrors from indycar.3do, but new sidepods with mirrors need to be done.

Have fun!

Where is that gasp icon when you need it? Wow, Pavel, great work!

That is amazing Pavel! So does that mean damage will no longer cause decapitated helmets?

Something completely different, I've noticed some minor transparancy issues with the LolaB02 in certain camera angles. See the top part of the sidepod in the attached screenshot.

Is it possible to reduce the transparancy without modifying vertex units? Currently to reduce transparancy I had to increase some vertices on the Z-Axis (rbtub, lbtub, frpod and flpod 3dos).

Yes, it is possible to fix. I don't release Lola carshape because I don' like some parts of it. I need some time to do all things.

Hi there,

Windows Vista is a bad fathermokka. (You know what I mean...)
It didn't allow to use the bat files to install the corrected damage 3do files of all several carshapes.
But also my manual tries didn't work...
ICR2 didn't even start!

So I would like to have the 3do files of the working carsets.
Would somebody share them with me?
I would be happy...

Bye

Hi Oli,
Do you want some of fixed carsets or only 3do files from it?

Hello Pavel,

You can send me the fixed carsets...

Thanks in advance.

Would be nice, if the fixed carsets could be put into the carset archive section and replace the oldones.

Wow, these updates are really cool.

I enjoy crashing my car at high speeds again, without having to worry about disappearing helmets and other weird stuff.

I noticed texture warping on the 1995 Lola around the cockpit area. Are you planning a fix in the future?

Hi Oli
Here are some carsets for you.

Bazmeister, tetures warping was on original 95 carshape. I didn't change teture mapping, but it is possible to fix.
