Cool public skin. 🙂

Marcassin did such a fantastic job on these skins, all the authentic liveries were done by him in 4K. Thank you very much for the honour of making such professional level skins for my mod. 🙏

I had to simply colour correct them and remaster them a little in 32bit. However, that saved more than 20% in file size, so not only do they look a little better but much easier on PC resources.

I've been struggling this week, very busy at work and not much time to mod. Tired every day... But I was slowly working on this, and somehow it makes it better.

Half way though the skins.

Remember the Red Bull skin, all aspect ratios seemed to be wrong? Well..., I have corrected and improved every bit of it. 🙂

Some progress:
All 3d and textures are done.
I'm working my way meticulously through the shaders. 60% done
Adding new AC community skins and improving old ones.
Working on the data slowly. 20% done.
Then CSP and VAO.

I'm hoping it will be ready in 2 weeks, but we'll see. 🤞

A warm feeling coming back to this. ❤️

I remember at the same time this was coming to life, a professional modding team was working on the same mod. I even released mine first, free and not paid, of course. I saw their mod when it was released, and I admired the quality of work and the cool features and options. I feel theirs is better than the one I shared, but at least mine was unencrypted and has options to have cool custom colours, comes with some fantastic skins made by a very...

Speedy update on this. 😉

Numerous fixes and improvements based on feedback. Thanks to all those who have reached out. 🙏

I've already made the Optimised version, over 44% less performance hungry. But the main mod is also 6% less demanding.

However, it now has even more detail, a fully rebuilt UV map with template included for skinners.

Several other textures also improved further, and new ones added, revised many shaders.

Also added modern Slick tyres f...

I'm back! ✌

It's been a tough year for me and my family. We are surviving and getting stronger together. It's because of this, I've not been very active and supportive of our Page and Group. Thanks to all that have been there for me and kept in touch through this time. I've tried to help modders here and there and share some knowledge and support, but it's been a brutal 6 months, to be honest. One of life's wonderful silver lining...

I dedicate this mod to my firstborn son. Tata te va iubii întodeauna băiatul meu. ❤️

Fish in the sea, you know how I feel
Sun in the sky, you know how I feel
Breeze driftin' on by, you know how I feel
And this old world is a new world
And a bold world, for me
And I know how I feel
...
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life for me, ooh
And I'm feeling good!

Thank God it's Friday! This is it. ✌️ This was my first ever mod to reach a somewhat final stage.

RWB / RAUH-Welt BEGRIFF is a Porsche tuner located in Japan. Right? No... RAUH-Welt Begriff which means “Rough World Concept” is the dream child of Akira Nakai-San. This is drivable art, adored by millions.

Hundreds of hours I've put into this mod. Many updates and significant content and features added along its developm...

The challenge, it was mine thus far, given to me by a modder in the community, it's now yours too, if you want it. 👌

A classic Alpine F3, well, why not? Strongly Brabham influenced, this slightly obscure Renault-Gordini partnership produced a lovely engine and a bit of a cult following. I kinda like it, it's growing on me. Plus, from above it reminds me of some kind of predator fish, like a hammerhead or a stingray. Fascinating. ...

Alpine A364 F3 WIP

Ohhh shiny!

Someone once said I should just convert the latest mods instead of polishing old turds. Well, I polished the crap (pun intended) out of this old mod of mine. It's come out rather good.

Of course all the gauges, warning lights work and even though it only has one rear light, that has light refraction effects. There will be lots of little details to notice and take in, I'll let you discover them yourself.

Mental amount of work I've put into this, and I'm happy to...

High quality skins by spudknuckles, remastered and adapted to the mod.

Alpine A364 F3 WIP

I have remastered and adapted these excellent public skins by TonyBarracuda to the latest version of the mod.

Dan Bucsa

I've also added more colours for variety. But of course the mod with be customisable in paint shop.

Alpine A364 F3 WIP

All the old skins have had the fake driver names removed, remastered and optimised.

Also improved the driver steer and shift animations.

I'm making my way through the data file fixing issues, adding features and improving things. I'll also be adding modern slick tyres for those who want to see how they perform.

I'm nearly finished adapting, remastering and optimising all the new public skins made by talented artists in the community. So I'll show them all off soon.

Alpine A364 F3 WIP

This has to be my favourite skin for it.

All the skins have been improved and optimised. Also, I have corrected, improved and adapted a number of new public skins released by Tony Barracuda. I'll check if there are any other public skins that can be added.

I'm blue...

I've been keeping my head down, working on it, so much time and effort, and yet some things are still out of my reach... Sometimes I have to say: "I need to draw a line here".

I have to yet adapt some public skins and rebuild most of the CSP code. But the 3d, textures and shaders are all redone. It's not perfect in my eyes, but it's a massive improvement over the last version in every way. And it's actually 25% less resource hungry. But as per usual, I'll be making a...

Alpine A364 F3 WIP

Work never stops!

Thoroughly enjoying coming back to this. About 30% in, lots of room for improvement, optimisation and new content to add.

I look forward to sharing with you the progress next week. 😉

Oh, and help is always paid forward. A certain recently released BMW mod is getting a full remaster of textures, shaders and numerous optimisations. The modder himself has also added quite a few improvements too, and it will be something very special. I won't spill the bean...

Ferrari F50 (1995) WIP

Just when I thought I had this in a good place... 😆

Well, a fellow modder, pl4sma2389, pointed out that while I play with the Mph version, the default version released is in Km/h. As you guys know, you can switch between the Km/h, Mph and Jandrovi's (also in Km/h) Historically Accurate version.

But now, if you choose the correct extension folder in the mod, you can also choose to have more accurate Km/h or Mph gauges! This is possible due to pl4sma2389's clever idea to load t...

Good morning. 🙂

As promised, today I'm releasing updates for 3 of my mods. The biggest one being for this sexy beast!

I've made many fixes, improvements, added new beautiful touches and features. Quality is improved significantly. I have also reworked the 3d, textures and shaders. Rewrote some of the CSP code too. But I have also optimised it further. Keep in mind though, as with all my mods the resources required will be ...

Ferrari F50 (1995), Porsche 911 996.2 GT3 (2004) and Porsche 911 993 RWB WIP

Can you tell the difference? No? Good! 😉 The first photo is of the main mod versions, and the second of the optimised versions! Only in VR and up close is it noticeable. It's a medium optimisation, but still 60-70% less processing power and memory required.

So, I've been very busy and quietly working hard to bring you guys these updates. Significant update to Porsche 911 993 RWB, too many fixes, optimisations, improvements and new features to list, but rest assured, like the Porsche...

Porsche 911 993 RWB WIP

This is a bittersweet post...

Firstly, I want to thank all my Early Access Patrons. I'll email you all in bulk as usual the latest WIP. However, following this update, I'm disbanding all the tiers that allow WIP of my mods before release. I've been told my recent WIP mods made it out before release. Not only does it make me sad, but it also generates multiple versions and confusion across the community. "Early Access" Patrons will now be "Friendly" Patrons and get to have a personalise...

Sooo I was supposed to take a break. 😁 Well I've improved my UV mapping skills and done some research into AO, and it's future. Thanks for giving me the push I needed, Jens. 👍 I have decided apart from bodywork, where I want a very high quality texture AO, I will use VAO throughout. In the future, with the UE5, AO will be a thing of the past. I'd rather use resources dedicated to texture AO elsewhere. This will now be mirrored in all my mods. Of course, I make good quality UV mapping as...
