Renault Alpine A442 & A442B -------- version 20230329


NEW: Reconverted from source, LODs from source, not that Fucking useless Simplegon Shit.
New 'proper' rims and tweaked physics.
Two in one via aero config. Please delete both previous version from here, and dare I say any other versions you have.

The 442B is found in the Aero setup Tab. Adds 8 km/hr to top speed.

NEW: I hope I covered everything mentioned in the comments, please let me know.
I forgot to invert the colour space of the PCARS normals, dunce.

  6. Fantastic car ! Only have one problem, and that's the rims look dull and somewhat dark. They don't shine. This problem happens to me the same with the Ferrari 512 BB LM and the Nissan 300ZX LM. What have I misregulated?

    1. Partly a design choice and partly a mistake/lack of skill.
      My cars are darker over all as a reaction to over polished carshow like treatment that most, conversions, suffer from.
      Second, the material settings I choose often aren't the best. I'll see if I can change that in an update.

    2. im not cos you rushed out a fix the next day. i appreciate all your unique mods but sometimes you got to take some fair critiscism. i could do side by side screenshots of how the other versions are better but i know you know im right. you need to start adding AO to your interiors they look flat.

  8. Hey Legion i wanted to help you again with the car, because the car deserves it. Im Mr.Hunt, the guy that helped you some times with other cars like the Maserati Tipo 61 V8 Ford or the Valiant Charger Repco Holden F5000.


    Here is a quite chaotically written changelog made with version 20230328

    done the following:

    -extracted and edited with KSeditor V6
    -added ksperpixelnm to rearlights+added normalmap and refracted them all in ext_config+turn signals (only hazard)
    -set shader from windshield and glass to ksperpixelreflection
    -new "hawker sbs40" battery texture (like orig. a442)
    -i added new front light textures from cibie and made new normal map for it
    -added exhaust smoke
    -i changed the shaders from all lights and textures to ksperpixelNM to add a normal map (for csp refraction)
    -added: the original steering wheel has no momo on it, only a "radio" in dymo embossing label maker font on the left and it is from MOTO-LITA at the bottom,all is now changed

    https://www.moto-lita.co.uk/steering-wheels/race-wheel-leather-rim/

    -I made the plexiglass roof silver like in the original and set it to non-transparent, but now i see that the A442B is not there...
    -the bars over the shoulder on the right and left should be metallic silver,i changed it
    -changed the reflectors for better and more real looking glass
    -added csp metallic,chrome effect's to all rims
    -exhaust smoke
    -added self lightning, i hate it but it looks so nice and immersive
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    to do:
    -the 442B is missing only the 442 is there
    -because of the new textures and materials, new lod's are needed, i had to delete them in lods.ini
    -gears have nearly unlimited rev.
    -csp emissives's so that the light illuminates the surroundings, but i can't do that yet only some are done
    -the front tyres are going through the body if turned the steeringwheel
    -the hands didn't touch the steering wheel
    -no idea if that's right, but the reverse gear goes over 300kmh


    Thats all for now..oh no i forgot to say that i added some nice high res pictures from the 442 in the details dir for further inspection

    1. You are 'Legion for we are many'.
      Thanks for doing that, I'll incorporate everything in an update.
      I got distracted by the 360 degree model found here - https://theoriginals.renault.com/en/alpine-a-442-b
      and made the top glass too transparent, it' pretty obvious I need to change that.

      The 442B is found in the Aero setup Tab. Adds 8 km/hr to top speed.

  10. HORREEEYYT!!! Finally we got it fixed! Thank you so much... can't wait to make it properly run down the Hunaudières like it should! BUT WOULD YOU REDO ALSO HER NEMESIS, THE 956/77? REALLY HOPE SO!!! He /78 is also nice and also it would make them be ACTUALLY contemporary since this very 442/B and the 443 are from that year... if you also add that mightyness of the Moby Dick to the field... there you go with LM 1978! well choice e is yours, for now again many thanks pal!

  11. This is fantastic! Do you have a classic Le Mans like the one in PCARS2 to go with it? Sorry i'm just a bit new to navigating your blog and trying to find certain tracks. I'm glad I found you and all your awesome cars!
