Suggestion - Idea: Update old Atari Models (Jag E-Type, Lotus Esprit, Ferrari 288 GTO...)

[Tob-Racer]

Hello everyone :)

 

Normally I never post anything on the request section because I'm very happy with all the fantastic mod out here but..

I'd like to suggest to our very busy modders to update some great old Atari's cars who have been never updated. When I said suggest, it's not like the harsh word "Request" who's like........ ANYWAY !

 

I'm thinking about the delicious Jaguar E-type. That car is fantastic to drive, to look at, take pictures... But honestly, with all HD Patches and Speeder's Preject Paradise (HD Mod), the model looks so old school. Have a look:

Same for the Lotus Esprit, Dodge Charger SuperBee, Pontiac Firebird, Ferrari 288 GTO, Ferrari F430 Spyder, Alfa Romeo GT V6, Mercedes-Benz CLK DTM AMG, Spyker C8...

Yes you could say "replace them with mods" but these low poly cars have something that needs a refreshment; they just unique in there way. If you look at other models who have been updated, I just can't imagine someone saying "that Maserati MC12 didn't need a refreshment". TDUZoqqer's MC12 is brilliant for example. Same as Norby's 430 Coupe or Tool's Alfa 8C Competizione. :drool:

So what do you think ? :rolleyes:

 

In my case, I'm slowly starting to learn modding. But I have no idea how to use textures. :ill: I'll get there hopefully. That reminds me the community need a proper guide for modding/importing cars into TDU. I saw Comb@t saying he would do one in the future. Fingers crossed if you don't bother mate :D

 

I'll let you think. See ya guys ;)

I will add F40 to the list , there is no quality mod for the and you can see that many people online driving that car so please to all modders, make a quality Ferrari F40 :D

[Tob-Racer]

A Forza model Ferrari F40 have been made by Reventon09 and Tool831 did update the car with 4 different versions (No Roof for exemple...)

If you want Reventon's Model here it is: http://tdu.forumcommunity.net/?t=45836353

 

Otherwise you have loads of F40 LM ;)

The F40 link works i just downloaded it mate :)

 

But i agree some cars in better quality would be better id love a Lotus Esprit from Forza :P

[Pator5]

Doesn't work for me , anybody give and alternate link plz :) Tnx

[Tob-Racer]

Gamefront (ex filefront) doesn't work. Mediafire does, I just tried. :susp: If you can't download it, I'll send it to you later ;)

 

The Esprit is great to drive with this sound mod, but once you get inside the car, dat poor steering and black dashboards textures make me cry... :cry:

Yeah Forza's model looks good.

[jdm0]

can you send me that sound mod ? lol

[Tob-Racer]

Why the link is already dead... :fp: Thanks sendspace... Check your PM box.

Nobody willing to put their efforts on this? I would if I knew how... just improving the textures would be really big difference

[Tob-Racer]

I'm actually working on that project. ;) I'm learning how to import cars into TDU (Thanks to Driver TDU and TDUZoqqer)

 

Jag E-Type is first :) Model from Horizon 2, LHD

Good luck then, looking forward to it. And excellent choice for a first car, may I add.
