released gery5: Bugatti Veryon SS variatons

[gery5]

As many of you could realize, the Veyron Super Sport in the game looks terrible. Matt greyish carbon finish instead of the cool deep black carbon with shiny finish... what did Eden think?!

 

Ugly:cry:

 

So I made some improvements. First, here is the realistic version of SS.

 

Here we go... waaay much better, isn't it?

 

But wait... if this is possible, why would we stop here?

No, we won't, not now... :)

 

Here comes the "Night Black" version with pale metal black finish, chrome decorations, yellow calipers, and red engine cover:

 

 

 

What a nice chrome effect, isn't it? Why not to use it much more?

Our next variation is - oh yeah - "Dubai Edition":

 

 

Shiny-nicey :)

 

Okay-okay, this is a bit much... :D

Let's see a more elegant version:

 

The "Bleu Mer" with blue carbon body and chrome decorations, engine cover...

 

 

The chrome rim is also released as part of this post, download it below.

"Night Black" - veyron_super_sport_night_black.zip

"Dubai Edition" - veyron_super_sport_dubai_edition.zip

"Blue Mer" - veyron_super_sport_bleu_mer.zip

 

Don't forget to download the rim too:

Install notes:

All zip files contain the modified bnk file and the original as a backup too.

All you have to do is place the zip file in the game's main folder (where the "TestDrive2.exe" is), and extract it.

 

Known Bugs:

None

 

Additional notes:

Only the realistic version includes the "veyron_super_sport_med.bnk" file. This file is primarily used to visualize the other players' cars (even at very high settings), so you will never meet the original ugly version again.

The other variations don't contain any "_med.bnk", so if you install any of my unique versions, you will never meet another one coming on in the game. :)

 

Big Thank you goes for tomsolo for tips on early chrome versions. :)

 

 

Cheers,

Thank you, thank you thank you.

 

Is there anyway to make the chrome, less chrome, it's super reflective of the sky? Also, you should do these wheels for the blue carbon version, I'd kill for an exact replica of that car if you could do it.

Thank you this is so awesome work. I was waiting for such stuff because the color of the Bugatti SS of Atari is so horrible thank you so much :)

[MagicV8]

Very nice :)

 

A tutorial, how about to do this changes would be very appreciated. ;)

 

Btw, has anybody recognized, that the SuperSport rear and front rims are different?

At the rear rims the rim flange on both sides is missing.

Solution hex editing for 2DMAT. I wrote a simple tutorial for how to change rim's color, the car elements is similar but little complicated.

I'm already working on a "diamoncut" wheel, it's my favorite too. But it is far more complicated, than simply modifying some materials. You will hear about me, when I will succeed... ;)

 

About the chrome shininess: unfortunately the cubemap reflection work in a completely different way compared to the mirrors. Reflection use a realtime rendered cubemap of the actual environment, and for some reason, in this cubemap the sky shows much brighter than in the scene. As you can see: while the reflection shows the landscapes and the road a bit darker, the sky is almost white. I can't help this unfortunately (yet, but don't give up) :)

 

Anyway, it's beautiful at night in cities.... ;)

Hi tomsolo,

 

oops, I missed that one. :eek:

Thank you very much for the hint. :)

[Eudemon]

Wow those are some nice versions you've created, I'm especially fond of the Black and Silver standard SS. Great work man!

[The Compensator]

Nice versions. I like the Bleu Mer! :nods:

That would be fantastic. I've spent quite a bit of time around the real blue carbon super sport and have really come to love it, would kill to drive around in TDU with it.

 

Thanks

Do you think it's possible to have a tool do this?

 

Looking at the Tricolore screens it looks like it might be possible to do the original Veyron is custom two tone colors, ie black and blue etc.

[memo90frost]

Thank you very much for these mods especially for the improvement over the original design, although I don't quite like the chrome on the other variations (it tends to have a blueish tint).

[tomsolo]

(it tends to have a blueish tint).

 

Becuase the sky is blue? :D

[sharks80]

Love the Night Black thanks !

[:)]

Does anyone else get 'hotlinking prohibited' when opening these files? (i am so sick of orange lol)

 

Edit: Nevermind - it works now. I dont know what changed lol...

 

Anyway, nice mow :) +rep

[StanceWorks]

Sorry for bumping an old thread, but is it possible for you to make a few small changes to the "Night Black" Version?

 

Black Brake Calipers (Instead Of Yellow)

Black Engine Cover (Instead Of Red)

Black Exterior Trims (Instead Of Chrome)

White Roof Vents (Instead Of Black)

 

I'd greatly appreciate that!
