EC PROJECTS [BMW Z8 E52]

[EuropaCar]

Hi I'm back posting on this forum after a while, and have come up with some new projects. *Rather than giving each one a separate topic, I thought it'd be more convenient to store them all in one.

In this post, the first post, there exists a list that will remain here containing a list of all of the cars, and their corresponding downloadable files if one such file exists

For a complete look at my cars and projects, please visit my website:
:arrow: europacar creations
or visit my frequently updated forum (this forum is by no means solely for my projects):
:arrow: AutoMotion 3D • Index page

My website and forum are very organized and contain all the information about each project, so don't hesitate to visit there
Visiting the webpages for each of the cars below, you will find a screenshots section. *There you can view pictures of the car, and thus formulate and share your opinions on the cars. *This linking process will only be done for the purposes of this first post, so next update I will post the images directly in the post

One final note: the BMW 325is is atm almost complete, and all I have to do is change the wheels, but once this is done, I will post it here (and my forum)

body complete

here's a forum topic on the EC Traffic Mod:
http://www.europacar.gamehorizons.ne...topic.php?t=16

anyone have anything to say about any of the projects?

[NightEye]

It looks really nice, really
But the texture at the mirror, and at the back of the backsidewindow could use some more work
Also, that sharp edge on the hood should get less high at the windshield

[majestic]

that gt3 is hot BUT the part where the hood meets the wing isnt sharp - it flows smoothly from the wing to the hood

look at Porsche-Turbo-017.jpg

its a turbo, but the same thing applies for all 996's

[EuropaCar]

thanks nighteye i fixed two of the problems, but i don't think i'm gonna fix the last soon (you know what i'm talkin about :wink: )
so here's the update: follow the link and click on any one of the screenshots on the page:
:arrow: http://www.europacar.gamehorizons.net/traffic_BMW_3.php

the car, as seen on that webpage, is 80% complete (all i need to do is finish two other paintjobs)

edit
thanks majestic for notifying me of that problem, but that's gonna be a really hard fix lol ops:
i'll get to it later lol

[EuropaCar]

done

just click traffic then bmw 325is

[Johnas]

Funny that so few people have answered to your topic for an such great job you've done!

Gotta have MM2 somewhere!

[EuropaCar]

lol it is sorta frustrating, but then again i'm used to it my other topics didn't get any responses, so i thought maybe i'd bring em all together lol.. guess it somehow even made it worse

hmm what should the next car be... maybe a GMC Safari..

bringing htem together was a good idea, its just the way you've done it doesn't work that well.
personally when i click in a WIP thread i expect to see pics right on the page, or direct links to the pictures, but you make us go to your site and look around, which isn't as inviting.
just my thoughts on that.

your models are all very nice though, great job

[EuropaCar]

hmm i think you're right, i'll start posting pics, but.. the first post i'd like to be left as-is, because it serves as a sorta contents table, and to update that post with new pics every time i update a car would be somewhat painful
but i'll definitely start posting pics from now on, so thanks for the advice :wink:
and thanks for the last comment

[EuropaCar]

hmm i guess i will maybe update this topic every now and then :roll:
but if u want up-to-date info, updates and pics are all on my website:
http://www.europacar.gamehorizons.net
and u can post in my forums too:
http://www.europacar.gamehorizons.net/forum

ok and i said i would be posting images from now on but i had too many pictures and so decided just to let u guys find them until my next post when i'll prolly have a specific update...
but among the updates are:
city started (look in the EC Mods section of my site)
Porsche updated (look in the porsche section)
Ferrari updated (look in the ferrari section)
BMW M3 CSL renders (look in the bmw section)
Ferrari 360 render (look in the ferrari section)
A lot of body updates on the 645Ci (look in the bmw section) --also a beta 2 has been released

well i guess if no one responds i'll have to find all the pics and post all of them :roll:

PS: plz join my forums and post your projects

btw i made those renders, so that's why there are prolly some probs with em (those are some of my first few renders and they're my first renders during the process of which i knew how to make shadows and reflections :roll: )

[EuropaCar]

ok ok i get the message... u guys are lookin for pics not words :roll:
here you go: (this took me a while)

[NightEye]

The american version of the 360 has a black rear thingy. Quite many european (and japanese) cars have american version of models that will be sold in the US with minor differences. DUnno why, but thats how it is.
The Challenge Stradale again has a metal grille with holes then again... :wink:

Very nice work EC, your a real good zmod modeler beside krazymod and grungy harry etc.

[EuropaCar]

thanks guys
and thanks code32 for the info

new render i made...


sorry if u don't like my rendering skills, but this is only like my fourth render where i knew how to do things like shadows, lights, reflections, and other stuff

[EuropaCar]

are comments too much to ask for?

[4th Floor]

How did you fuse the two body halves? Cuz you can see the fusing line on each car...And the female front seat passenger looks like Stecki's one (dunno whether he gave free permission for that)... Apart from that, very nice work

Any chance for getting released in other games, too? :?

..i didn't..
:wink:
i just made the one half and mirrored it and that's why there's a line

i've tried twice to make a driver but didn't succeed, so i'm using stecki's (both his guy and girl)
this is from stecki's man's readme:

use it for whatever.  if you do use it, please mention my name and website in your readme file.  yeah right...  i doubt you will do that for me, even though all you really need to do is copy and paste the info from this text, but if you are too lazy to make your own driver model, how could i possibly expect you to make the effort to credit me.  hey, i'm a realist...

i put his name in my readme and write that the driver is made by him.. but i've only released one complete car as of now (the BMW Z4)
which reminds me... i think i forgot to include his website... oh well i'll include it next time (even though i'm not required lol)
--the girl's readme just says "author: stecki"

thanks
well i only know how to get cars into Midtown Madness 2, but i may release them for Racer (very probable) and possibly Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 2 (not as probable)
because these are the only games i have (apart from Motocross Madness 2 and NFS: Porsche Unleased...)
