Has anybody tried this: https://www.regnow.com/softsell/nph-soft...er&styleID=6038
Is it a tool usefull to track modyfications and help with component design or not?

It says "made of a thin aluminum sheet (0,75 mm). Glue and rivets were used for connection of the details."

Is it a model of a J car?

Anyone seen this....does it run in 3D Sudio Max ?

In fact .......is it any good ?
There's not much info there for a forty-some quid punt !

It looks like it's a 3d drawing of a GT40.

The written text looks suspicious. It's looks like another language translated back and forth by babelfish. Typical of many a scam.

Hello,

I have ordered the 3D GT40 model last year direct from the producer (Xdyne) and I am very pleased with it.

You can have a look at a free sample here. XDYNE

The GT40 is very high detailed with engine, steering, transmission…….
There is also a see-through mode, you even can extract single pieces of the car. The only problem is that it is made for 3D Studio and not for 3D Studio Max. It runs under the Max but is not fully compatible – you will have minor problems.

Kind regards,

Reinhard

These renderings were made in a very short time. Still have to play with the light and the materials - not all show up in the right way (main problem when used with 3D Studio MAX)

Hi Reihard

Looks interesting what you managed to do but seems limited for details and component dimentioning.
What is this data base for this software based on?

Hi Roel,

the details are very high. In the dashboard there are even the switches and the steering boss has the logo inside.

About the accuracy of the dimensions I cannot say anything to you - but I would never trust in the accuracy of a 3D-drawing.

I did not use the drawing for dimension or to assist the built of my GT40, I used the GT40 for the drawing of an exhibition stand.
