I bumped your thread on GTAforums but I don't think it will matter much, I think it's best if you make an official announcement that you're looking for people to help.

Today I found an intresting site that has the bikes from MM1 in SA but I didn't test them yet:

Here I am tryin' to make sence out of it when I know there isn't any.

If I still played PC games I'd totally be into this. I moved to the PS3 a little over a year ago since the computer spec demands were just far too high and the costs were outrageous to keep up with them. I really miss the ability to mod games though, its that whole 'box-stock' thing. Thankfully I can rain terror through the streets in GTA IV with that muscled-up coupe:

Little Big Planet looks like HOURS of mindless entertainment, I'll pick it up once the price drops to $30 or so. What 'project' are you working on for that?? I usually hold off until prices hit $20, but certain games like Fallout 3, GTA IV, and Star Wars: The Force Unleashed I pre-order.
Have you guys seen the trailer of RockStar's Red Dead Redemption? I'm pre-ordering that one for sure!! :D

well i'll tell you then later on tomarrow someday i'll show you the work i have done.

on it's own little big planet is insane fun. but they threw in a level maker with a 3d modeling tool. well i say 3d but while the models you make are 3d you can only edit in 2d. which isn't bad to be honest. it cuts modeling time down considerably.

i been doing movie vehicles. convoy,dukes of hazzard,back the future,smokey and the bandit,ghostbusters but my most extensive work right now is with mad max,road warrior/mad max 2 and thunderdome.

i published a beta to give people my model works thus far to use in their levels. that is my ultimate goal is the help the community rather then making levels so much myself. cause there are a few mad max levels out there..but they suffer from being either mad max in name only..or they are complicated with piss poor modeling.

as it stands right now i have the following models up and running.

mad max 1.
max's interceptor

mad max 2/road warrior.
the no front fender statesmen
both versions of the interceptor one with the front end light assembly intact and one without.
the red xa bat car
poppagellos car
the landau
the mack, stand alone, stand alone armored, and with the armored trailer hitched up...you can even walk along the top of the tanker like in the movie.
the pink desoto

thunderdome.
max's truck post camels of course.


tomarrow i hope to make the humongus truck, the two f-100's (the black tow truck and the red snake truck.) and jebahias plane.

the beta with all but the thunderdome truck is up now. it's called "little big planet @movies beta." otherwise my psn id to look for is badcop1979.

worked on the ending jump of max's truck onto the monster truck to clear the run way. got the jump to work right but i don't have the plane nore the monster truck to smash into. much work to be done that is for sure. i hope to make the compound from the side for a level too. maybe one where the pink desoto could be bunred lol.

well that's all i have for now.

before i forget. i had spoken to gosuke and he gave the models to our mod for packaging with our models so long as we gave him credit. we even hosted then on our old site. thank you for sharing the find though.

file this under whatever you want. i'm going to finish up the models starting likely next year when i get my new pc. and take things from there. i love the world of mad max and i'm one of the few who care about accuracy in representing these beautiful cars. so i'll be up to me to finish what i started.

i've lost alot of models to viruses and just being dumb and thinking i had somethings backed up when i didn't so some things will be a total restart the rest is pretty much as you saw in the last few screenshots and in reality i've lost the desoto work and the mad max impala. kinda breaks the heart as they were going so well but oh well.

i have to get max back on my system and get my modeling legs as it where before pushing these models further.

so no start up date is announced yet as things always seem to find a way to get in my way when i give dates. but before i do or redo any of the models i've done so far i'll have i'll atleast finish up mad max once and for all. give back to the community that has give so much to me.

Great to hear you're back on track! :D
I really wish you the best of luck with this mod.
(tbh, I actually bought 2 copies of GTA SA when I first heard of this mod :P so you know that I really care about this one!)

well thank you. i hope to see this through to the end but as it is my old graphics computers just given up the ghost and i need all the space i have on my laptop for other projects currently running. so around april i'm looking towards an upgrade to something that will give me the capacity to do all those models plus set peice and be finaly done with the mad max universe till mad max 4 the game hits cause something i had not thought of was DLC look at transformers revenge of the fallen it has constant updates of g1 models for the game why would mad max 4 the game be any different. course new games do not include a garauntee of DLC but a man can dream. if not if it hits pc then we'll have all the models we need to do all we want...provided of course there are tools out there to mod it. hehe so many variables.

but on the modeling side we are going balls to the walls so like i said no start date but look for more news around april.

small update. i just got a high end graphics and gaming rig. i haven't gotten 3d max reisntalled as of yet but that is next to be done. after that i will be starting the slow process of getting back to modeling anything and everything mad max. the models may or may not be used in gaming but once finished they will be donated out to any interested parties for use in mad max moding. i have a lot of paid art i am doing right now so it won't be real soon but ceritainly with the next few months.
