Let me jump on the wagon and say you don't need to credit me every time you post a photo. Once or twice is enough, and there must be documentation included in the final mod.
In relation to the coroner van picture, please add the model's author for that first photo. All subsequent photos like an update, texture edit or lighting video may not include the name.
I'd also like to shout-out the people who converted my models into other (not Em4) games. Please credit me even if you're not using the model for Em4.
There is one thing I'd like to ask: If the model is one of my conversions from another game (by either Ubisoft or EA), please include their names too because I don't want the triple A game companies breathing down my ass.
I support the proposal, however the person doing all of that won't be me. There just isnt any time left for me to do all of that.
In my spare time besides working on LA, Montana, River Falls, (a secret mod) and my other hobbies, I am currently trying to "update" my civilian cars. Camrys, Corollas, Nissans - the kind of stuff that would work in a civilian environment. It is already a monumental task to update/replace the existing civilian cars and I do not think it would be practical for me to cancel all my existing projects just to update the vehicles.
2020+ spec vehicles are within our grasp. given how OP already has a 2015 Tahoe in the works. An edit of my existing models would not be too difficult in order to bring them to spec. Montana Mod as well has a 2016+ F350 that will be out soon, so I don't mind adding that truck into the pool of assets planned here.
I am willing to assist (up to a certain degree) those who want to give these a try. I for one welcome the new guard of people trying to get into the gig. I just hope that you guys don't burn yourselves out like I did a couple years back.
All of this talk of the future is ironic for me though. Most of my "new" models have been old stuff from the 80s and 90's.
Do not buy Zm3. You can just as well go with Blender (which is free) or Zm2, which is a one time purchase instead of a monthly subscription. Zm1 is the oldest of the above and also free. The pros like MikeyPI and some of the old-school modders use this software exclusively.
Me, I have begun the change to Blender, but use Zm2 for UV mapping, Zm3 for persons and Zm1 for converting into older games like NFS 4. Go with what you feel comfortable with.
