the caliper is on hold, kinda screwed it up, so just did a little work on the quarterpanel

[crazy 989]

finished quarterpanel

[crazy 989]

caliper....almost done

[crazy 989]

Ive done the wheels brakes, no tyres yet. need to see how many polies my comp can handle. heres a test render just to see how everything fits so far

[nzjimmy2001]

hey mate those wheels look really good. car is defintely coming along now. nice work.

[crazy 989]

thanks man
almost finished the trunk, made the spoiler .

[LOST]

It looks really good so far. Keep it goin'!

[crazy 989]

thanks man, i would keep working but I hit a roadbump. whenever I select edit poly modifier on some parts, max just crashes other parts like spoiler are fine, but headlights and things keep makiing it crash, however I can select anything else on the modifier stack except from edit poly, any suggestions on how to stop this occuring?

[Catlin]

Happened with me,i had to stop modeling my s13 because it kept crashing.

[crazy 989]

" stop modeling " oh f off man (not directed towards you) , that is really crap. I will find something hopefully to fix it. otherwise I need to make every part perfect first time round, isf not then delete it. maybe if I merge one part into another scene it might work...

[The IC]

try applying a default grey material to everything...also try mergeing the stuff into a new file...ive had a similar problem once, except it would crash every time you tried to remove a map from a material that was applied to an object, it was very annoying

[Catlin]

Well ,mine was just unusable because as soon as i opened it,it would just simply crash,but try not to overload ur pc.


EDIT*

well i just figured out what was wrong with my s13,i just changed my graphics accelerator from direct3d to opengl and it works again

[crazy 989]

CATLIN - THANK YOU MAN, U r genius. , although viewport speed is really slow now, and my bp's are all fuzzy

[Catlin]

Mine looks fine,i just changed the configuration,1024 for textures and linear on both things at bottom,looks just as nice as it did wit d3d

Same happened to me with my rx7 >

[crazy 989]

@Catlin, yea was fixed when I reloaded the bp's lol
@advan - try switching to OpenGL.

PS I can model now, but I have my doubts on renders, had a memory crash or two when I inserted brakes and rims into the main file. which is strange because these are my comp specs -

400GB HDD
1024MB DDR2 (dual channel) memory
Ati Radeon X700 Pro PCI Express graphics card
Intel Pentium D Processor 820 2.8Ghz

[Catlin]

same graphics card as ive got atm,but i got 2 gig ram,u prob need a little more ram mate.

[crazy 989]

ye maybe I do, will save up for more. However, the scene hasn't got the wheels or brakes in it and the total polygons are like 160k smoothed, and I have had scenes b4 which have been up2 2 million in size, the viewports are all fine and they don't mess up when I select indivual parts to edit.
P.S. it works fine if convert it to edit poly and get rid of any other modifiers WTF

EDIT - I found a solution, I just have to model like half the model, use the smooth tool within edit poly, then have to import it into another file to use symmetry, then I can use that for posting WiP's its a pain in the arse, but its better than nothing
