Validated (again :) ).

You do not need a vertex at world zero, just the root bone.

Indeed, so it's probably just a good idea to assign this weight at the beginning to make sure that all vertices, and all bones, have 'a' weight somewhere, before you start rigging? Better safe than sorry ...

2. Weight, may no longer be a requirement. Anims can sometimes be a bit unexpected if you've missed something: it either works or something somewhere went wrong. Having a root bone (this is not the root node) at world zero when you set up the animation and giving all verts a 0.01 weight at least...

A mix of both. We do a lot of baking these days, but sometimes it still makes sense to start from a photo source, tweak it and generate normals that are more than good enough. For the duck, we used the roasting procedure.

Hmmm, all tracks use this shader for see-through glass ... Try playing with the Fresnel Reflect values (0.004; 0.5; 5.0 for instance)? This particular shader expects lower values by design.

OK, now your question makes sense :) . You could split that behaviour by using the "Bump Cube Specular Map Add Specular Reflect T1" shader. Reflections will be modulated by spec alpha; diffuse alpha only controls transparency.

Any shader that doesn't have 'Add Alpha Reflect' will work. Just set the source and destination blends to 'Src Alpha' and 'Inv Src Alpha' respectively.

I'm not fully awake yet so this may be a silly question: why would you even want to model a mesh for the ideal racing line?

Track issue -- XSector1 probably doesn't extend all the way to the wall and you managed to miss it.

Perfect conditions for texture shooting -- fill those memory cards :) !

This has indeed been discussed plenty of times already. Here's my personal view: While I understand the appeal for this predominantly hotlap circuit (again, IMO), I can't see this happening. Licensing and data acquisition costs already put it outside rF2's planned purpose. And then we're...

Looks like your timing lines (XSector) are calling the swheel_trackmap texture. You can either change the material of the timing lines to use another, existing texture, or you could create a dummy swheel_trackmap.dds. 1) If you're developing a track, you should use Mod Dev mode from the SDK...

Our Brianza has been fixed. I exchanged PMs with feels3 half a year ago, but he's obviously too busy with his job ... and living a life. Can't say I blame him :) .
