While it's not practical for me to do at this time as it's a ton of steps to do (more than I already do for just fixing what there is now), I have done a bit of testing to make a couple car's rim textures much nicer. Here is a preview of the results on the Nissan 350Z. So if some are really bad I will do them after I finish material update.

For anyone that owns the Holden HSV W427 (the one with the red interior) how important is it that the interior stay red?

Status Report, I have done several more now, but I still have just about exactly 100 vehicles to go (~50 done) but as it's a ton of editing, saving, converting to a usable format, replacing, viewing, and then repeating; there's no real predictable pattern I can find as to when it produces either a green or reddish tint because of the format's compression it means it's slow. Keeping at it though.

If after I have finished doing the rework of all materials with cars and you see any major material flaws or greenish areas (see below) please let me know as I'm trying to fix a bunch of mistakes made by TDM when he originally set this all up. I'm also exploring changes to fix some other texture flaws or pixelated grossness that I may be able to improve.

Vehicle material update: The order isn't perfect, done with Aston Martin, Audi, BMW and Bugatti. Some vehicles may look bit different than before, but I am doing my best to keep them nice as best I can. I also am improving some textures as I see fit, but this adds a ton of time so I may not do this for all but I can come back to it later.

Well I didn't finish car materials in time, but I'm glad the day/night cycle is now more or less complete. Of course adding weather back in will be a pain, but I hope everyone is enjoying the new stuff more. Plus this allows us extra freedoms we didn't have before. Yes I know my personal post is a bit late, but meh, I'm happy that my personal project that I had going is done now.

I sure love having to fix mistakes made by TDM where I can... For example, I found out his textures for the grille on certain cars was entirely wrong, so now it looks much nicer.

Mine:

There are plenty of other changes I wish I could do, but some are more practical than others.

I'm reminded why I probably stopped doing this process, it takes forever and is incredibly boring, as not all cars are set up the same way nor can I copy paste settings and have it be reliably good. That being said, progress there is being made.

Looking at cars again... Was I drunk or something when I did materials before (not paint jobs)? They're all incredibly shiny. How did I find them acceptable at all? Time to redo.
