bet you were'nt expeting this but i agree with you. I had to do this just to see what would happen. About the rim mat i'll work on it some more.

About the 7 seat bimmer, don't believe everything you hear, i think there will be a couple of em in the next five years. :wink:
it's too bad really cause bmw's are about sportiness and agility, not hauling your ass and your fat friends around. :?

Yeah, it looks like that indeed at the first look or seat heating. I know it supose to mean phone activation button or something like that.

I think the farting man is a face with soundwaves infront of him But a anti fart button in a car would be nice, and a anti nose picking button would be welcome. I hate people that are picking there noses when they drive, including me :lol: think about that when you are driving, one hand on the steeringwheel and one finger up your nose

good car as always, like special all the nice shaders, gotta love does

[yasickkk]

is there anything u cant do? hock:

[The Rain Knight]

WOH you're killing me. give me the secret of the leather seams...plz
Is that texturing ? seems to be the easiest way to do.

and the farting man is the cruise control swicht, isnt it ?

[Worlds only hope]

O.k. the farting man :lol: is the telecommand button, it activates the voice activated commands and also the inbuilt telephone. I've attached a pic of the real thing. :wink:

Johansson: I know what you mean, i hate those nose pickers too, especially the ones who sing to themselves, while drinking a coffee :lol:

Jump over the moon.

Leather seams in Rhino.

I make them by first cutting a strip out of the surface then sweeping it with a cross section that can be seen in the attached pic. After that it is texture work.

The materail i used is quite simple.

diffuse = mix

color 1= falloff (color of the stiching)
color 2= Falloff (color of leather, etc...)
mix amount= checker

for the checker adjust tiling so that it looks like stichting.

not the most realistic but is quite effective if done properly.
Hope to see some seams on your Bugatti.

[Shorty]

the steering wheel is so damn realistic.... just like your car right there... and thanks a lot for sharing your material secrets

[majestic]

hmm, nice way of making seams. I think that using a nice tiled texture instead of checker would work better, gotta try this out

gotta love how rhino automatically generates uvs

[The Rain Knight]

thx for the tip Woh. i did not see first that it was a checker mixing. thought it was this wire that is rolled around the seam
so from there it's very realistic. Hope i 'll take time to do it on my bugatti. Leather everywhere !!

[The Rain Knight]

i just gave a try to your technic. Nothing to show but...

here are my comments :

- one thing to do is hace on single surface for each seams. If not tiling will be hard to adjust inbetween differents surfaces

- what i tried is instance the checker map in the bump slot of the sems material. it looks awesome.

wainting for updates . keep up the good work

[DrumBoPing]

that is AWSOME, i wish i culd do on max what i culd on paper hock:

[pwbull09]
