Avia A21.1F Van

I decided to do this because there isn’t a visually acceptable Avia model for Mafia in general, and there certainly isn’t a van model. I’m not saying there aren’t any for Farming Simulator or other games, but currently there aren’t any for Mafia or GTA. I had no choice but to create the model myself. Being practically a Blender novice, I took this as a challenge to at least learn the basics of Blender. Until now, I’ve done all my editing in ZBrush and 3ds Max. But since I switched to a Mac a while back—where 3ds Max isn’t available—that’s why I’m using Blender. Otherwise, I probably wouldn’t have taken this on

Gradually, though, I got the hang of Blender and it actually turned out okay. Normals gave me a really hard time, but weighted normals solved that for me. Everything is described below the photos

I plan to release the model and make it available for free download in the basic blue version with a white roof. Just a heads-up: it’s nothing special. I still have a few things to finish, then I’ll post it here

Subsequent tests went much better. Compared to the first tests, I managed to fix pretty much everything I personally didn’t like about it. The glass gave me a lot of trouble—specifically, the fact that it shatters. The moment it broke, the game crashed. After a day of testing and troubleshooting, I asked on Discord, where the plugin author noticed that I was using an older version of Blender. Everything is resolved.
