Creator's big custom AI racers collection

Recommended Posts

Ok, here's how this is gonna work: Whenever I finish a new AI racer reskin, I'm gonna add a new entry to this topic. This way, you'll be able to download characters you want seperately and I don't have to make a new thread every time I finish a character.

 

I'm making these based on the theme list from JimbobJeffer's Theme Overhaul mod, but I may still be taking requests for custom AI racers. Just send me a PM or post a reply, telling me who you would like to see made into an AI opponent.

Cool, I like it :D Does he have a face under the visor too, or is it just the helmet?

(No, I did not download it. Can't do anything with it, haven't got the game.)

Well I included his face when i drew the textures, however, the face texture goes unused afaik.

Anyway, I should try this out but I don't have Racers installed on AM, so I will try it out on HAL later.

Also @creator, Since I noticed you linked my profile in the OP, I want to mention you can type

Creator
and it shows up as: Creator, with a little hover-over window just like the names on the active members list.

Ogel just doesn't look like Ogel without his proper helmet and armor, but there's not a whole lot that can be done about that. Dewey Cheatum looks good, but would it be possible to fix the vertex colors on the 1x3 slopes towards the back?

About the slopes: It depends... if you're referring to the black shading, sure, I can remove that, if it looks bad. If you're referring to the brown bits, though, that's gonna be impossible, I'm afraid. The slopes are actually merged with the wedge-shaped base plate there, unfortunately.

It's the black bits that look odd. You could probably keep the two vertices in the bottom corners a darker color to sort of fake AO like the original car models often do.

but you got the Alpha Team logo upside down

 

Oh, shoot, are you serious? Damn! And, yes, I had to squash that planet logo a bit in order to fit the yellow stripes on the surface. Should I get rid of the stripes in order for the actual logo to be displayed correctly?

I don't particularly care how you do it, just make it less squishy if you can. Otherwise it looks really darn good.

OP updated with M-Tron Astronaut. I wanted to give y'all a little red present for Valentine's Day, but I couldn't for the life of me give him the correct white arms. I'm sad now :( If anyone knows what I did wrong and could help me, it'd be greatly appreciated.

 

EDIT: I fixed it! Everything is fine now :af:

OP updated with Minerva McGonagall! Special Thanks to RobExplorien for explaining Transparencies to me :)

 

(Also, i know there's a weird black smear on the side of her car, but it's impossible to get rid of, because it's the colour from her base plate branching out to other surfaces, for some reason :( )

Can't seem to get this to work? I extracted the zip file to the right folders, and proceeded to rebuild my JAM archive. What am I doing wrong?

Uhm... if you put the files into the right place, they should overwrite some of the original files with the same name, namely the .gdb files... did that happen? I'd love to help you, but I'm not at all familiar with the JAM archive, to be honest, since I never bothered rebuilding mine after extraction.

Yeah made sure that the files were in the right folder, and allowed any overwriting necessary. I can't run the game without my .JAM file (despite owning the 1999 version) so I guess I can't use this one. :(

 

 

EDIT: Okay I can run JAM-less, but the mod still doesn't work.

That's not possible. Do you have Skype and are part of the RRU chat room?

This is a great mod, except Islander is using McGonagall's car! :P 
I never noticed that Willa and Islander shared the same car . . . huh!
EDIT: AND Ann Droid, too!
Oh well, the DRIVERS.SRF file is also edited so I'm ready for a circuit race with these guys!
