Italian Project Hub: WIP ALe 660 & Le 800

Some are good! I think we could extrapolate the "idle" sound and tweak it so that it goes up as the engine accelerates
The thing is that I don't know how to do that yet.
After I've finished the 3D model (once and for all) I'll start working on the ETR 200, the fastest train of the world in 1939

So the FS ALe 660 model should be ready, I transformed all ngons in tris, I made at least the LOD0 and LOD1 and I hope I made them correctly. Can I share the model here? At least for the first models, I'd like to share them here so if anyone is interested in texturing can help.
Thank you very much



Also, since it's my first vehicle I made, there might be some quality drops here and there

Well since there is no response I'll share it now anyway. Tell me what you think and modify it as you please, I'll use the experience gained to make better models!
The reference photo is a separate link as the .rar file would be too big. Also I'm not sure if this is ok with the rules here, if not then I'll delete the post immidiatly.

Oh well... I've seen mods done by multiple modders (one for 3D mesh, one for textures etc.) just like your latest work (great job BTW, love it!): so you are basically saying that I should contact someone privately and make the mod together as a shared project.
My intent instead was to create a hub where modders can participate and share their progress. Then, if someone's work should become unsustainable, then it could leave his/her legacy here for someone else who will finish the job.
Maybe I should open another thread just for this idea! I will explain more this concept later, when it will be polished enough.

About the photo, I think you are correct, in that case, I shall change it with the link to the image, it's free to download from the official archive.

A couple of updates:
University is getting more difficult and I had zero time to work on the 3D models, also I have theatrical hobbies so this is a busy period for me.
In the near future I'll have a bit more time to work on this project, so here's a question: do I continue to work on the models or should I start learning how to use GIMP and to texture properly? The first will give me (and you!) more 3D models to work on, the latter will somewhat get us closer to at least one finished product (Ale 660 & co.).
Let me hear what you think and have a nice day!

Thank you for your kind words! While I'm trying to study a bit more how GIMP works, I have a question for you. How can I
solve this "pixellated" border?(Also bonus ETR200 content!)

Hello! It is time for some news! I've been doing some progress but unfortunately my PC decided to break. It's a normal kind of malfunction and I hope to recover the data. Thanksfully at least a bit of the Ale 660 model is here on the site. As the release of TF2 is nearing, I think it's better to build more 3D models and learn how to texture (as soon as I'll fix my PC/buy another PC) thank to learn how to code the damn thing in-game.
Meanwhile this seems the perfect opportunity to upgrade my hardware, hope to see you soon with a new flaming machine!

Oh this is splendid! Can't wait for it!
Since I'm still without a PC I'll be looking for liveries, especially the XMPR and the ones before.
XMPR is important for me since it was introduced right before my childhood.
