so you would like to make a game like this?

I think you'd best start without other cars, so you just have your own car and a world in which you can drive

can you work with any 3d modeling software or did u use a car object from someone else?

you'd best make a city using some modeling program (if you want more detailed buildings)
but you could also make building with primitive objects in DB (box, cube, cylinder, ...)

Jeeze now theres one devoted coder, buying 3DS max just to make a little demo!! Im pretty sure we all know 3DS, Im just hoping you didnt pirate it........

Id suggest hopping over to www.matedit.com and using that for your matrix, then use simply blocks for buildings as placeholders till you have real ones, same for the car

so you bought 3d studio max, rpgamer? you can afford that? I can't as a 18-year old; all of my 3d tools are pirated... but I don't have problems with that; it's good for 3d industry coz now I know what these programs can do so I'll might buy them when I've more money.. otherwise I shouldn't buy them at all

if anyone has a reaction on this, then please make a new topic for it and post my text in it, or this thread will go too much off-topic

back to the point:

It's okay to send me that picture to [email protected]
But you have to know that it can't be over 1000kb (normally that shouldn't be the case
Then I'll model that school for you

Freak please point me to your new thread. I am extremely against pirating as that is what raises the prices of all modelling programs. If pirating stopped, prices wouldnt have to be so high to make up for all that lost profit.

I dont pirate- I use milkshape.

as that is what raises the prices of all modelling programs

if I don't pirate, I dont have these programs... I can't afford them so my case of pirating won't let these prices rise

when I have work I'll buy these 3d applications (I think I'll choose rhinoceros but I'm not sure yet, by testing pirated versions I can make my decision... if I couldn't do this I wouldn't buy a heavy 3d tool at all, so by pirating I'm actually lowering the price )
