Anyone know any good Template Tutorial.....making templates for cars.....i have a bunch of cars that i will have templates to paint on for maybe some new mods in Rfactor.
Here is some examples of cars.........








Per......

Hmmm...

If I had the 3d model of the car I could unwrap the uvw mapping from it and build a template.  I've never been quite sure how to make sure the mapping is exactly the same as what the game is expecting, though.

Some sort of 3ds max plugin I expect. 

Stuff like this is never as hard as it first seems when you get into it, but making the first step is always difficult.

Got the Smart car model Per.

  

Like I said, I can put together an unwrapped map of the car (see pic) and I could probably make the shadow and highlight textures too.

I'd need to know how the textures were going to be mapped in-game before I could create a template, though.  Not sure how that works when building your own mod.

Nice one Bob.
