Important Notice regarding Italdesign Zerouno

Hi everyone and welcome back.
In the weekend I noticed that the MNBA Group released their version of the Italdesign Zerouno.

This was not expected.
So, unfortunately but expectanctly, I have to put my version in a low low priority phase. Their version is on a more advanced phase, and it seems that in general the car is good, with nice textures and materials.

[Dev Log] Volkswagen T-Cross 2021

Today I want to share the progress on one of my new cars: the Volkswagen T-Cross!

A first beta version is starting to take shape.

Materials got an overhaul, with chrome, aluminum, better glasses, and reflective and rough plastics. Some has been changed accordingly to the real car counterpart.

Still more to come: don't be fooled by the tyres, they are getting better textures soon!

[Dev Log] Update on the release plan

Hello everyone!
I'm back here with an update to the release plan of this page.
As you probably seen, I still didn't release some of the upcoming mods I was planning to do.
That's because, if you've seen on my IG stories, I had a problem with my hard drive and lost some of the files of the mods I was working on.

Nothing really tragic, mostly related to configuration files of the Ruffian and Steel Showroom 02: The Dealer.

Now, the Ruffian is working again as expect...

[Dev Log] Ruffian GT40

Today I want to show you the progress on a new car I'm making for Assetto Corsa!
Based on the famous Ford GT40, this is a custom version by Chris Ashton @ruffiancars, that participated at SEMA in December 2021.

Most of the parts have been 3D printed, and I tried to recreate the car by following the car's shots as a reference. Rims, Spoilers, Headlights and bumpers have been remodelled and ...

Back again... slowly working on a new project!

Hello everyone and welcome again on my Patreon!

I turned back again at making something new for Assetto Corsa, and while the time is never too much, the results are starting to take shape!

I recently started working on a new project, it's a long, "fantasy" hillclimb track located in some places near me.

Fantasy because probably never have been an hillclimb competition, but the height, roads and references have been taken in account to my best possibilities.

...Need to take a break

That's one of the things that I don't like to say, but with deep regret I have to take a break from this awesome journey.

I was making some nice progress, but from a day to another everything can change.
And in the current world situation, my company is not doing really well.

Said that, I need more time to focus on my knowledge, work on my graphic/web skills and learn new things to help my career and work.

All the past downloads are safe, and I stopped this patreons billi...

I just want to give you an update on what I'm working on (and learning) at the moment.

No lazyness, nothing complicate, so let's start!

Someone said... Cars?

That's a delicate topic. I'm taking a look at car creations for Assetto Corsa.
I'm just at the start, and I found out (as expected) that is a world of new informations to learn, like the View Post
