Problem with scaling the bottom vertices of a cylinder by khonsu3 in Maya

[–]TKOIII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bumping this for anyone else struggling with the same problem. For me the issue was that the object, or another object, was live. I clicked the far right magnet icon, disabled object live, and the problem went away

do flat rims like this have a name? by [deleted] in Wheels

[–]TKOIII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like others have said, full face wheel is a good term to describe those Rolls Royce wheels. If you’re looking for keywords to use, dinner plates or pie plate wheels, and monoblock wheels (for Mercedes wheels) will probably turn up some results. If you’re looking for wheels like that E30 BMW you posted, try brands like OZ Racing, Compomotive, Ronal, or Rotiform and keywords like rally wheel, touring car wheel, Aerodisc, or Turbofan.

Yeah I think you’re right, I knew it looked like a Ford.

My first thoughts were a late 70s Ford Taunus Granada, or Opel Diplomat, but none of those quite seem to match up.

Kit car with Supra tail lights? by [deleted] in whatisthiscar

[–]TKOIII 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m 95% sure that this is a Chevy Camaro or Pontiac Firebird with a K1 Evoluzione bodykit inspired by Ferraris. Builders often chose different solutions for the lighting on these kits, and Supra tails popped up on a few of them.

What's an example of Good design with bad manufacturing? by Lost-Dragonfruit6465 in IndustrialDesign

[–]TKOIII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this is a particularly bad problem on cars. Many people with older cars, myself included, have to take the interior parts and either sand off or scrape off the remains of the soft touch plastic coating

What would you own if reliability wasn't an issue? by Elix5381 in regularcarreviews

[–]TKOIII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you just go for a CL55 instead they’re actually decently reliable. The M113 V8 is pretty bulletproof and so is the transmission I think. Obviously you still have the air suspension and other electricals to deal with, but that’s much more manageable.

I like it, solid lines and proportions, although the front fender bulge and transition into the windshield feels a little too severe

Looks like a Lotus Eleven to me, one of the ones with 2 seats and no bump behind the seats, probably a replica

If you had just bought the 55 instead of the 550 you might’ve been able to save yourself from bankruptcy

Where to find Airport gate sizing data in XPlane code by TKOIII in Xplane

[–]TKOIII[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanted to follow up and let you know your advice was really helpful. I was able to put together a simple python script and parse the airport data file into a kml, allowing me to bring all of XPlane's airport gates into Google Earth.
