Fresh in from downforce3d
List of new stuff for SA06:
i thought to let you know that i am quite busy finishing modelling and artwork for 1994. progress is processing very well. picture shows some fictional constellation of the 94 benetton ford, as the rear wing is the late season one. just wanted to have a look at the measurements. next will be steering wheels and the face lift of the williams, cause i noticed i modelled the wrong nose, a pre-season one. if there is someone out there who can deliver pictures of steering wheels, especially from the low-budget teams, this would be great. so far, have a great time…
So time for seeing something different than cars, helmets etc 🙂
CTDP F1 2006 will also have small utilities for customizing the mod. We call it ControlCenter (CC) and I want to tell you something about it, so that you know what to expect.
I’m currently working on the animated menu backgrounds. Just so you know I’m not lazy. 🙂
Hey CTDP’ers!
Just want to let you know that R26 is on the way. You may notice that is the second post of the R26, but just let you know that some errors on the shape and mapping were the reason why this car is delaying. Also Paulo let me paint that beauty… Thanks Man!
Now, as Andy fixed the things I’ve told about that (both shape and mapping), sent me the “new” car and here I am, painting it, combining with exams.
Also, wish me luck as I’ll paint all the track-specific liveries… More WIPs to come, so Stay Tunned!!
EDIT: 2nd WIP with the main desing done!!
Another screenshot, this time of the redbull after last week screenhot of the Toro Rosso. Just to show what I am doing at the moment. The Toro Rosso is ingame now and the Redbull will be ingame later today.

now all cars are modelled, even most of the upgrades, some have to be face-lifted, most textures done, work still continues…
Karl, in reply to your previous post, as a little icing on the cake some some steering wheels have a track map like Spyker and Toro Rosso. So as part of the upgrades the correct track map will be displayed for each circuit. Screenshot showing an early last week wip.
Will have some more next week 🙂
Hello everyone,
Just a little progress report. No screenshots from me today but after my extended Xmas vacation to let you know that steering wheels have progressed quite bit. Some clever bloke noted that the Toro Rosso and Red Bull steering wheels were 2007 specification ( a mistake on our part) :), this has now been corrected with the TR already redone, the Red Bull nearly done and some small touchups to others.
This leaves just the Super Aguri as the only wheel to be modelled, so not far away and this part for the work will be completed.

Hello everybody,
I finished the Super Aguri 05 Upgrades and started working on Renault. We found some shape mistakes we want to fix before the painting gets into the final stage. After Paulo dropped the car and Raul took it over I also decided to try a new mapping technique to have less distortions on the livery (cozed by these horrible roundings everywhere on the car). Karan did some new shots of the current dev version.
