I'm glad you are making F1 2017 cars

Nothing real fancy this time but I'll continue...

A spy photo of our new prototype:

Good to see you back Heniogk

By the way...

And now, part 2:

F1 2017 cars

I wasn't sure whether or not to make a custom palette, but new Force India leaves me no choice.

Yeah, that was unexpected. My first thought when I saw a post about this, "wait, todays not April 1st... ."

Hmm wait, have you tried with colours around 85-89?

Yeah, 87 seems for me a fair compromise as a light pink.

Not yet, but they seem to be a best option for a 'standard palette' version of this carpack which will be released along with the one with enhanced colours for those who don't want to fiddle that much with settings (the palette won't change much, though, it only changes brown to orange, purple to pink and saturates dark blue and yellow).

A long time ago I started up a project I called GR/C. It was a complete overhaul of GeneRally intended to closely reproduce RC racing. I lost interest and it sat on my hard drive for years. The spark came back a few weeks ago and I pretty much started over from scratch. I decided to work up a teaser and post it.

So far I have a handful of tracks, along with 5 car classes consisting of 1/12th scale prototype, 1/10th scale Rally (drifting), 1/10th scale Formula (open wheel), and what I consider a 10th scale Spec class Touring Car, and a Modified Touring Car. The Modified cars are based on modern super cars, and the Spec cars are based on 80's transformers (mostly Autobot).

The project includes a custom palette that allows for a lot of variety in the color schemes for indoor RC tracks. I have a custom sound set, and have worked very hard on the cars and especially the physics settings to get a really close analog to RC cars. Probably the biggest catch is that you won't have much fun unless you have a pistol grip controller, which is a bit tough to come by (though I can give some info about this if anybody is interested). Keyboard and Xbox controllers are not really suited.

When I get some more tracks done, I want to post some videos and give a download link.

EDIT: Here's screens of the completed tracks. Yes, I realize this is a cars subforum, sorry if it's out of place, the cars are in these shots as well. 3 of these tracks are based on real world tracks that are available to race in Virtual RC (VRC), which is a great RC racing sim. The Bahrain track is my own version of an F1 track layout in an indoor RC style.

A closer look at all the current GR/C cars

And another finished track: Edit: I just uploaded some short preview videos on youtube, check them out.

Which one is better?

Difficult , probably the second but anyway it depends about how they looks in-game

I agree. At least this way the 2nd looks better.

How does it look like in game:

The left one is better IMO

I agree that the left one is better .

Hi all guys.
I'm new in the GR community.
This is my first project, I'm worried about my inexperience.
So... now I would like to explain my work.
Because I didn't see other models like these, I wanted to create the 24h prototypes Group C Mazda 767B and 787B. Now is still work in progress, but the parameters are near to the definitive set, to recreate their "nervousness" agility, acceleration and their overpowered braking system.
I hope you glad also the design of these models

Ah... I'm obviously open to any constructive criticism

Hi Onik! To be honest, that's what I call an interesting entry to carmakers field, since your models look absolutely promising! I guess, that you are actually not a beginner in modeling, and you're also after reading through several tutorials, but I can suggest you using resir014's physics calculator for help, if you would get lost with physics values.

Ah and please: create the harlequin-colored paintjob, too! (Don't forget, for fix poly colors use the ones where the following two color has the similar hue)

@up Onik37
Looks good If this really is you first project, I am really impressed.
I'd recommend making the front outside tip of the lights slightly more narrower. Also: are you planing on making other Gr.C cars?
