I need help porting cars from GTA IV in to BeamNG.

Can anyone help me?

Add me on steam if you can.

Thanks

 

im curious, how did you get the cars out of GTAV? From what I've seen there currently is no way to get them open in a 3D program.

To to get them into beamng you would have to convert the car to .dae somehow and either skin them to an official car or create a jbeam yourself.

 

Reread. He said IV not V. 4 not 5 for those that cannot read roman numerals.

But yeah. The mesh would have to be exported to a .dae and JBeamed in game. Then along the way you'll find the R* meshes are utter bullshit anyway.

 

Yes I read that wrong, I saw V from my small cell phone screen scrolling too fast

GTAV has no way of getting the cars out yet

GTAIV you have to convert the .cdi files to open them in a 3D program then export it to .dae I may post a video of this if I get a chance, I think there is a third party program already to convert .cdi to other formats, maybe I can post a link.

And those GTA IV meshes?... They are terrible I would clean the topology up a little if it's feasible.

--edit--

here is a link to a tutorial, I want to also give this a try since i have gta iv installed

What? You have a GTA4 mesh dodgy stuff and all

 

yep. Smd importer plugin, SparkIV, and of course blender and GTA IV

 

Sorry, but how do you can import .wft file in Blender, if Smd importer plugin not works with .wft? I don't understand something?

 

Has been for a few days now

...So you have a vehicle in Blender with broken smoothing groups, your point?

 

My point is that it's possible to import an smd model into blender, then export it as a usable beamng file. Also, sparkiv exports a smd model format from wft.

 

Good stuff! do you have a link to the importer?

 

This truck here, is something that I have always wanted to see. It is based off of the Dodge Ram, and I love it!

 

My brain doesn't understand this technical stuff. Can someone tell me straight up how to port a car over?

 

If you cant follow any of whats been said here its nice and simple. You cant do it.
