This mod is now off hold, and will be released very soon. Within the next few days. I need to make the release image, installer, and finish some MM1 things.
Here is the last new addition, a few more added paint jobs. These were only in the MM1 beta, so I had to recreate them. They are very close to the beta shots though.

So keep an eye out, because this mod will be up soon. :)

Curious that also in the MM1 beta (didn't knew it existed, but had to be so) there are unused cars paintjobs. Nice work and addition. :wink:
Looking forward for the release, only the installer needs most of the improvements now.

BTW, Can you edit the shadow and make it turn with front wheels?, because there is shadow under front wheels, make that part of FNDR objects ;)

Thanks Franch. The installer is much better now, more features too. A new person has made it now, named RobinJ.

@Aaro: That wouldn't work too well. The alpha channel would not be good at all, and the shadow would go in the air when the car ramps.

Sorry if its been asked before, but whats the installer thing or how does it work? I always liked simple .rar files the best.

V4 will have several options to choose from, so you can customize your installation. Having to copy dozons of ar files into the mm2 directory is alot of work, and then having all of those files hog your mm2 folder could get annoying. The installer allows you to simply check off what you want, and combines your choices into one file. The additional mods (Leftover Cars, Custom Hud, etc) are still in sepreate ar files though.

Made the website gif.

Let me know if I should add, change, or remove anything from the clip. Also let me know if it doesnt play very well for you. Jerky, pauses, plays very fast or slow, etc.

I'm going to say: JUST AWESOME! It goes well for me. :) Another cool thing is, its more smooth now the .gif file is. :D

EDIT: You could add the London Eye, the seagulls, and the Bay Bridge of course. ;) If its alright.

Very nice animation. :) It's perfect for the MM2X website, but is better do so: make a thumbnail with the standard sizes of 140x104 pixels, and a bigger image as you want, also 640x480 (the file sizes would be too much big, anyway). The animation goes fluid to me. It shows only the new V4 features, since this is the last release of this mod, maybe is better show all the other most important features.
Great for the new installer that makes only one .ar file of what you've selected to install, concerning only the mod features. :wink:

Hehe, that's not all of the features. :P But I do think it would be best to show all features of the previous mods too. This would make it alot longer though. I will make a new gif soon. Thanks for the recommendation. :)

EDIT: I'm not having luck exporting my new movie file. Windows Movie Maker gets to about 4%, then just piles on the minutes of "estimated time left". It got into the thousands of minutes with no change in progress, so I just quit. It's only 30 seconds too. So that gif is going to be the release one.

EDIT #2: Aww forget it. No gif animation could describe all that this mod does. I'll just stick with the mod's logo. Here is the final release image.
