1337 H@x0rZ = Elite Hackers

Just kids that try to use loopholes in code and exploits to gain an advantage. The Caddy doesn't win a lot of races, but neither do broken Corvettes :)

(BTW, the 57 vette is the lightest car in the game, and the game engine does not take frame strength into account when building your car. Therefore, a 1200 HP motor will NOT twist the car into a pretzel like it should.)

On a totally different subject (About the 5th for this topic) what 3d software do you use?

If you mean for the car, you should ask Electronic Arts - they made it :)

As for my ships, I use 3D Studio MAX R3 :D

I'm trying to teach myself how to use 3D Studio Max R4.

I use Autocad, and Cinema 4D at the moment, but Cinema's not the powerful.

Well....
I've done several wire frame's in autocad and exported then to 3D, but can't get them to texture right...it textures indevidual triangles instead of full faces..to be honest I'm thinking about giving up and buying Lightwave. But that is VERY expensive

Have you tried UVW mapping? It gives you the option of using different shapes and sizes of map - look for it on the modify panel at the left...
