Performance
This model was not intended for use in a videogame. According to Loren Goodwin it has "about 200,000 more triangles than the first 4 levels of the game combined". As a result this mod can cause performance issues. I get frame drops of about 5-10fps on an nVidia GeForce 740m and an Intel Core i7 4700MQ (mid-range laptop gaming hardware). If have a low-end PC or are using integrated graphics your performance may take more of a hit.
Bugs:
The player will spawn inside the R8 when trying to leave by the passenger door and has to jump out. This is because the model still uses the Ferrini physics and collision models. I can hopefully fix this in a future release.
Changelog:
v1.0:
Initial release.
v1.0.1:
Fixed a bug that caused framerate issues due to incorrect blank meshes.
v1.0.2:
Reduced the file size from 220MB to 52MB (removed unnecessary .bak files, linked the Gil shop model to the phonebooth model instead of having two models) .
