Virtual Renovation Software

Who here has played Saint's Row? Grand Theft Auto III? Project Gotham Racing? Forza?

What do these have in common? They have the ability for users to customize an extent their cars. Some games more than others.

I have been searching unsuccessful for a similar program to do some virtual restoration on a 3rd gen camaro. Painting schemes, wheels, ground effects, suspension mods, etc.

Anyone know of a capable program?

Re: Virtual Renovation Software

It would be a pretty good invention. I'm sure someone has created something along the same lines, probably just requires alot of research.

Re: Virtual Renovation Software

Oh I have looked and looked. If the Saint's row guys and the other video games can create something that does this with a fairly simple interface, you would think.... But that is why I am appealing to the community. I have searched and searched to no avail. I wonder if I am searching for the right thing.

Who has used something besides photoshop or gimp?
