TDUZoqqer

The Tacoma is done! 🙂 Texturing took longer than the modeling, spent the whole day today mapping, baking and texturing 😅 But this must be the fastest modeling job of a complete car I did yet, meaning with texturing and stuff. But hey, it's below 2k polys, so it would be weird when it'd take longer, really.
 








 
Asset details:
Polycount: 1.798
specific textures used: 5 (512x512 DXT1 no alpha, 512x512 DXT5, 256x256 DXT1 no alpha, 256x256 DXT1 no alpha, 128x128 DXT1 no alpha) - the 512x512 DXT5 might be scaled down later.
Duration: 3 days
 
Nice to have it done, since I need to work tomorrow again and I would have totally lost the track of the model then.
 
But yeah, one down, more to come!
 
PS: As for rims, I will make own rims with a 128x128 DXT1 texture, but I am not sure if there is enough texture space left for it. I hope so, otherwise I'll use a TDU traffic rim with a common car normal. Which I don't want, actually.

Waiting for the customer to reply, made renders in the meanwhile.


 
(renders = testing light glow mask and looking at the wheel textures and mudflaps)

Yeah, but i just realized that now, because we started to fiddle with them. 😂😂😂😂  There is one of the SUVs, SUV2 i think, it's a Jeep Cherokee Sport.  And the van is actually inspired in the Chevy Express, but it's GMC version. SUV4 is a Dodge Durango. lol 

lol yeah, i mean it would be weird without. Btw have you realized, atari used a bunch of real cars, debadged them and changed the body shape slightly.
 
SUV1 for instance is clearly a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee pickup 😂

IT IS LOVELY. 

Really nice work Zoq!

First off, yay to WIP threads not being read-only anymore.
 
And yeah, call it "tDuZoQqEr iS bAcK" as much you want, but I'm not modding again (yet). Since Milli said in her club thread that custom traffic won't be a thing in TDU Platinum since all custom traffic mods are quite heavy weight, I offered my help to make a custom, realistic traffic pack for the mod.
 
And since I didn't want to spam the thread with my progress, since it's a TDU Platinum thread at the end of the day, and not "Zoqqers epic modeling showoff", here's a standalone thread.
 
The traffic cars read as following:

Progress:
2016 Nissan Altima (Compact1)
 
2002 Gillig Low Floor (Bus1)
 
2017 Chevrolet Express 3500 (Minivan1)
 
2018 Honda Accord (Fullsize1)
 
2012 Toyota Tacoma Access Cab (SUV1)
 
2013 Ford Police Interceptor Sedan / Taurus (Police1)
 

Tacoma 3D model finished. Now it's on to baking and texturing.
 

 
🙂
 
PS: This is by far the most lowpoly car I ever modeled, unironically. To be honest, I would love to put some more details into the model, since it deserved some love, but TDU would not like that very much.
PPS: the Tacoma is now ever lowpolier than the traffic car it replaces.. But that means more space for textures! slightly more. Traffic bnks work only up to 550ish kb lol.

Wanted to go sleep two hours ago, but accidently finished the front half of the car 😂 oops. (except mirrors).
 

 
weird flex but ok

Thanks for taking time away from your other project to do this. Focused on low poly and realism.. this is going to be an essential mod, lol.

Nah, i was expecting a box with a texture for a TDU traffic mod with the same poly-count. And a slower process aswell. But you're doing it quick.

RX7 when

Better than expected, aka "expected you to make a Lamborghini again". To be fair, that's a legit concern lmao. No problem, I like to put even more stuff in my time schedule which I don't have time for actually. Wow. Game end me now pls.

soon

TDUZoqqer is back!

That's actually a lot better than i imagined. Lol  And really thanks for the help Zoqqer, it's really appreciated to have some help with the project! 😊

sounds like a neat list to me really
 
about the trucks idk yet will find out with the time

Lol, that's great. Haha

And i've came up with a possible list. 

Compact1 - Nissan Altima
Compact2 - Toyota Corolla
Compact3 - BMW 3-series
Fullsize1 - Acura RLX/Honda Accord
Limousine1 - Dodge/Chrysler Grand Caravan
Minivan - Chevrolet Express 3500
Pick_Up1 - Dodge Ram 2500
Police1 - Ford Taurus
SUV1 - Toyota Tacoma
SUV2 - Jeep Wrangler Unlimited (4-door)
SUV3 - (Haven't seen in game, possible it's not being used)
SUV4 - Chevy Tahoe
SUV5 - Honda CR-V
SUV6 - Ford Expedition
Taxi1 - Toyota Prius

I didn't added the trucks, because those are not really necessary, i believe, unless you feel like modeling a Kenworth. Lol 

Any suggestions?

When you have any complains about the Tahoma for traffic - you're too late by now lmao. I has a face now
 
Btw, I need to work now so yeah will continue traffic later. And please make a list of cars to make.

I personally would just check the statistics of the hawaiian DMVs and pick the most registred ones for each body type.
 
Just when I hear people want to put in AMGs and Lambos in to traffic gives me a little bit of aids.
 
E: For example: the most popular truck in Hawaii is the Toyota Tacoma.
https://eu.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2017/08/30/these-most-popular-cars-and-trucks-every-state/478537001/
 
And this can be extended further.
 
E2: here we can see Nissan, Toyota and Honda being the most popular brands in Hawaii.
http://carmarkhawaii.com/popular-car-brands-in-hawaii-2014
 
" The most popular models on the island early this year were the Toyota Corolla, Toyota Prius, Honda Accord, Honda Civic, and Honda Fit. "
 
 
Meaning stuff like Corolla, Civic and Sentra is pretty much a must.
 
 
Also, I assume the CrownVic is the only logical replacement for the police car.
E: Although, Honolulu uses the Taurus now.
 
And look, we already have 5 of the 18 cars figured out.
 
Also, looking for the most common used cars for sale on Autotempest or Autotrader for Hawaii could be insightful aswell.
 
On Autotempest I see many Challengers, Mustangs, Velosters and Altimas.
 
" The top 10 best selling car brands in the state are Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Ford, Chevrolet, Kia, Subaru, Lexus, Hyundai and Mazda, with the Toyota Tacoma light truck outpacing all other models, according to the report. "
