Modular Carshape

Oops, forgot the rollbar on the trumpets car.  Sorry.  Try this.

I'll start playing about with steering wheel shapes/designs...maybe a nice welded chrome chain with a suicide spinner knob? (Just kidding...maybe ) Do you have a preferred file-name structure? The F1-88 mode uses something along the lines of <prefix>swa.GMT

Interestingly, some details on those silly 30 sec sketches are accurate enough to point out some details of what is there and what could be in alternates.  Note that although the nose is a 'raised nose', the cockpit is not a 'modern' flat-top cockpit.  The sidepod is also not a flat-top, integral with a flat-top cockpit.  Look at any post 1998 F1 car to see what I mean by 'flat top'.  The top of the squarish nose cross section is seamless with the cockpit top, which is then nearly seamless with the top of the sidepod.  This fully modern concept /is/ possible with the interfaces I've laid down...on purpose, as is an older style treatment with a round top nose and no nose lift.  The single 'modern' concept we cannot support with this approach, again on purpose, is the sheer airbox and rear cowl, since that would hide the valve covers.

Don't worry about file names yet.  That is my next sitting, since that is integral with the genstring stuff.  But all parts will have standard names with slot numbers in them.  For example, a sidepod gmt, which is part of slot 2, and has LODs, might look like gmwc_<2>_hi_sidepod.gmt in a gen file, and a particular sidepod might be file gmwc_A_hi_sidepod.gmt.  A steering wheel probably could be "sw", and is not LOD, so I'd think maybe gmwc_<4>_sw.gmt.  The steering wheel we already have is 'A', so you could name it gmwc_B_sw.gmt.  Maybe.  If this is how it finally goes, convention-wise.

Didn't I read somewhere that the filename has to match the model name? Of course, if so,  that's easily changed with any of the tools we have at our disposal, but I thought I'd double check to be sure.
