Best 3D Cars??

[nick_martin]

Who does everyone think creates the best 3d cars that are available for purchase??

No one. They are all bad. Often not worth the money.

If you need the cars for architectural work and they are somewhere in the background, it might work. If you have to render images or animations of cars, forget it. You would have to do a lot of cleanup. These days it is better to get a car model from a game like Forza, Assetto Corsa, Project cars. These models are highly accurate and very detailed.
Best hand modeled cars often come from enthusiasts or hobbyists on some car modeling forums.

We mostly buy at https://hum3d.com/ and they are mostly decent, sometimes not technically accurate in details and mostly no good interiors. But they are the "best" we found so far.

no wonder that those game chars are the best... you need month do model such a detailed car...
if you take a cheap VW the cg game car does cost more in the end as the real one...

I disagree. The viz people cars are decent enough and the icars electric pack are pretty good and have really good shaders. Good enough for close-ups with a little touching up in PS

I just purchased the VIZPeople cars and they are nice.

[nick_martin]

Thanks guys. Yeah we have some vizpeople cars which look ok. I reckon if you update the shaders on them they can work. Same with a few of the evermotion cars.... the model itself is ok, just need to update the shaders.

Will start hunting the forums for some super high quality ones for close-ups etc...

The models from Forza and Assetto Corsa are floating around somewhere on the internet, I am sure you can find them easily.

From where can i get those cars? any link?

Turbosquid?

You can just google; assetto corsa 3d models

Just found a page on facebook, 2nd link in google that has the cars from assetto corsa as fbx/max files. Not sure about copyright so won't post the link here.

[bardo]

sorry dean_dmoo but it's quite clear that those models are copyrighted cause they're the models grabbed from the game.

In general 3d cars are copyrighted as design, brands and model names, if you add the aspect that AC (and the other games developers) needs to make deals with car manufacturer , it's quite strange think that those models could be not copyrighted.

[dean_dmoo]

Agree, but what made me wonder is that they are so clearly described on facebook. Would have expected facebook to remove copyrighted materials. Then again, it might be russian advertising so who knows whats true

[bardo]

Surely it was be the russian hackers that modified facebook filters to leave them on.

At the moment, if you have any kind of problem you can always point finger against them.

I've bought a Ferrari model from Squir.com, I'm pretty dispappointed with it. Serious lack of details, errors, missing parts. For mid distance though, it's perfect. But don't even think about the interior
Models are scanline and MR and need rework.
