[latent ivy]

i dont play them

[drowsy leaf]

uh but u can get em online

like ripped from forza

dowloaded by a random website

[latent ivy]

these r all my games:

[drowsy leaf]

.

[latent ivy]

?

[drowsy leaf]

like i can have the forza model as i have forza, rip it and upload it into 3dmodels.model and then u go into that page and dowload the model from theere

[latent ivy]

you could, but i dont want to do that.

[drowsy leaf]

and did u make the entire model urself?

[latent ivy]

not entirly

[drowsy leaf]

did u dowload a .fbx or some thing like that

[latent ivy]

no, i got help from a beamng pro creator (hes not in this discord)

[drowsy leaf]

but all of the models, are ussualy gotten from forza or asseto

modified

then put into game

bc i did that

literaly

some good mods, like lucas's delorean are hand made models i thin

k

[latent ivy]

its what ussially happens. for me i didnt even know that method

[drowsy leaf]

bc it was handed to you already done

[latent ivy]

but my car is mostly hand made

[drowsy leaf]

really

show me the model

just to see

[latent ivy]

it wasnt done when i started (ps: i am a slow typer)

ok

if i can get a screen shot

give me a sec

wait wdym model?

[drowsy leaf]

a pic with the objects and the 3d model

[latent ivy]

the last beamng picture is the furthest i got. then i went out of the editor to do it tomorrow.

[drowsy leaf]

ok

[latent ivy]

i havent finished the car yet

and the paintjob

[latent ivy]

anyone got any good truck mods?

or miata?

[drowsy leaf]

No

[pale fractal]

no sadly

duramax engine is pog but not an entire truk mod just engine

[latent ivy]

sadly no

[pure grail]

[robust patio]

Is there good subaru mods for beamNG?

or toyota?

[ancient topaz]

5 door sunburst

Blackline

[median solstice]

cool mod

[winged sand]

i have a few where they spawn in on literal brake rotors and you have to select wheels

[median solstice]

I hate this too

or the ones that straight up crash/freeze your game

get this shit off of the repository

[winged sand]

i haven't had a mod that crashed the game yet, i've had one spawn in and bug out but that's all

[median solstice]

80s square fullsize series or whatever it's called, adds older boxy bodies to the grand marshal. All the configs don't load correctly and make your game run at 1FPS upon selecting them

or the ar162b addons for the D-series

the engines are bugged and sag under the truck

breaks the driveshaft at the slightest bump

you can fix it easily by changing the engine to a vanilla engine, but come onnnn

[winged sand]

i downloaded those and went "yoo this would be so cool!" and then i pressed the gas and Driveshaft Broken

[median solstice]

yep

the models are so good, I love the oldstyle

just replace the engine and it works perfect

for some reason they duplicated the vanilla engines

so for example you have two 5.5L engines, one is bugged one is vanilla and works fine

[winged sand]

i dont think the modder knew how to just replace the engine with the vanilla one in the code

so they just duplicated it

[median solstice]

I don't think so, making a config that uses vanilla parts should really be no big deal

that's what most mods do

I think it worked fine in a previous version of the game but an update broke it

[winged sand]

probably

[median solstice]

and this lazy mf can't be assed to fix it

[winged sand]

it was probably a early game mod and then an update borke it

[median solstice]

I want the oldstyle van so bad too

but he won't update it

[winged sand]

i think whichever update added in the engine mounts is the one it broke in

bc the stock engines have mounts now

[median solstice]

that must be it

I'm gonna check if the bugged engines have an engine mount slot now

[winged sand]

i dont think that they do

[drowsy leaf]

Ya know that the mods aren't bad, they just deteriorate bc the game gets updated?

The civetta bolide corse has no sounds bc update

[median solstice]

and they have no place in the repository if they freeze your game with the current version

do you not agree with that

because a lot of mods get taken off of the repository for less severe problems caused by game updates

[drowsy leaf]

Well if they say outdated don't dowload it

[median solstice]

and this is hypocritical to me

[drowsy leaf]

Ekkek

[median solstice]

It doesn't say it anywhere

"ekkek"

[drowsy leaf]

In the webpage

It says

Not ingame

[median solstice]

yeah no

I'm not doing that

not for every mod

fix your shit or get it off the repository so it doesn't crash my game

I -will- whine about it

[drowsy leaf]

You can hit subscribe throu the website and they dowload automaticaly

And faster

[hidden tartan]

skill issue.

[median solstice]

that's super cool, I thought you had to manually install on the website

[hidden tartan]

why whine about stuff when you could just check if it still works. and if not, bin it. really a reason to whine about. not.

[median solstice]

thank you for your valuable contribution to this conversation

[drowsy leaf]

From the forums, they don't, the repo it does

[hidden tartan]

np, I felt like you had some records not set straight yet.

[median solstice]

"Why whine about something that is there just to crash your game"

[drowsy leaf]

It's a thing going on in the server when ppl have a problem it's a meme

[median solstice]

I got it, dw

[median solstice]

S A G

[drowsy leaf]

You can also see the latest reviews and see if it breaks

Bc ppl give bad rating if it's broken

[median solstice]

you were correct, the modded engines don't have mounts

time to make a forum 🅱️ost

[drowsy leaf]

Update moment

What update added the mounts?

[median solstice]

it should be an easy fix

[winged sand]

yeah i tried fixing it like 400 times and never could, i just used a fancy engine mod

[median solstice]

if he cares for it

[drowsy leaf]

You need to touch things in the jbeam that connects the engine to the chasis

Let ppl know it's hard

Bc it is

[median solstice]

you know what else is hard

[winged sand]

HAHA yeah not ||fucking|| doing that

[drowsy leaf]

I could but why

[winged sand]

i don't do a single bit of modding in any game, i just enjoy and credit people's work

[median solstice]

||the jbeams of the ram plow||

[drowsy leaf]

Are they that hard

[median solstice]

crash at 200kph on a hard wall and not deform-hard

I'd say that counts as "not soft"

[drowsy leaf]

Well that's bc you haven't fucked with numbers

Lower beamstreingh

It makes the beams less hard

And they deform easyier

[median solstice]

now how would you go about doing that ingame

asking for a friend

[winged sand]

lmao

[drowsy leaf]

uh open the ramplow jbeam

[winter rampart]

all you need to do is add one line in the slots

[winged sand]

i still have no concept on what id be doing lmao

[winter rampart]

alr lol

[drowsy leaf]

find this and put a lower value

if there is multiple, lower all

[median solstice]

how

[drowsy leaf]

have u made a mod before

?

[median solstice]

n-no

😳
👉 👈

[winged sand]

[drowsy leaf]

[analog goblet]

[median solstice]

[lusty vector]

not to be the party pooper but this goes in #modding-general

[median solstice]

Well this conversation has been over for well over an hour now but noted

[pure grail]

started jbeaming

managed to get body jbeam to work

[tired coyote]

oh boy this looks like something useful

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[pure grail]

beggining to deform alot better

obv still gonna spike because its dense

but its no where near as spikey as before

[drowsy leaf]

id reccomend to do that, so that ataching the doors will be easier

[pure grail]

already fixed it

[drowsy leaf]

nais

[pure grail]

now theres no more of this:

all the parts I've done so far

apart from mirrors

[drowsy leaf]

ye, mirrors are always separatedf

[drowsy leaf]

you using that pessima to see how its made? i did that

[pure grail]

nah

ramming it

into the trackhawk

to see if it spikes

[fossil ore]

ouch lol

how highpoly is the model

[pure grail]

277k

lol

ik ur gonna cringe at that

as its way over the ok limit

but

it looks good lmfao

[fossil ore]

oh god

[pure grail]

lmao

[granite lodge]

how much is the ok limit

[fossil ore]

generally under 100k

even that is a stretch

the entire vivace model including all the different bumper parts, doors, trims, roofs, and all tograc body parts added together are around 102k

the trekker is about 70k

[median solstice]

what sort of name is jeep

[pure grail]

please tell me your joking

[median solstice]

All my posts are 100% serious and genuine

[dense portal]

How do you see this?

[fossil ore]

stats in the corner of blender window

[dense portal]

Never noticed it lol

[fossil ore]

yeah

its pretty helpful when modeling too

sometimes there are extra verts and you can hide portions of the mesh to only see the stats of the displayed bits

[median solstice]

@pure grail your jeep is looking good, sorry my jokes are shit :)

[granite lodge]

[gaunt quest]

I didn't ever get the ibishu Blackfoot. But I'll find this as I want it really badly

[median solstice]

why are there several mods of the same car that will never end up on the repo

[latent ivy]

Yes he could

[wild raft]

Making textures for a change is fun

[ebon saddle]

nice!

[dense portal]

What do you use to make them?

[wild raft]

Paint.net

and the UV of the windows ofc

[latent ivy]

You, could, you could even do a subaru engine replica

Nobody stops you from making mods man, if you want to do a mod just do it

[small olive]

Soo

Nbe might not be an option very soon

It is causing frequent bsod and crashes

With very new hardware

Nodebeameditor

[granite lodge]

[small olive]

And now bsod when using ref models

When i import any pc just dies

[latent ivy]

I doesn't work for me now

[small olive]

Like this is pretty scary for modding long term

[latent ivy]

I mean it does but i can't open JBEAM

[small olive]

What cpu/gpu?

[latent ivy]

You mean my gpu?

[small olive]

Cpu and gpu

It uses both

[latent ivy]

gpu is nvidia gtx 1650

and cpu is intel core i5 9th gen

[small olive]

@latent ivy maybe just some issue with installation

Not that new of a hardware

[latent ivy]

Probably yes

Maybe I'll just reinstall it and see if I can open jbeam

[mighty thistle]

What's a good thing to make to learn how to mod

[granite lodge]

what mod are you planning to make

[mighty thistle]

eventually some vehicles

[latent ivy]

same but 1660 super

[latent ivy]

to make mods you need blender (modelling program) and notepad ++ or any other text editor

[mighty thistle]

got some blender experience, where could i start making something simple like rims

actually i'll stop wasting your time and search for it

[drowsy leaf]

[granite lodge]

:smiel:

[drowsy leaf]

really only australian things are mt coot-tha, mt glorious, and the cbd

[royal coral]

[lunar egret]

Lol

[latent ivy]

Do you realise that mods don't make them by themselves?

And that modding is very hard?

[royal coral]

So?

[latent ivy]

And you said "ever found this mod, i think this is private mod" and i understood this that you think that mods are being made by themselves. (yes i know this is the worst explanation ever)

[amber minnow]

Anyone else have like 200 mods installed and half of them are old and don’t work right?

[granite lodge]

:cri:

[sick shard]

Is this gonna be its own car or config

[winter rampart]

its for the sunburst

[sick shard]

Oh cool

[amber minnow]

i have a ton of like 1.5-2 years out of date mods and thats pretty much the only problem with them. but i still can't stand using them bc that

[stray warren]

Do yall know how to ride the motorcylce mod without falling everytime

[latent ivy]

basicly, dont

[winged sand]

does anyone have a good suburban map?

[robust patio]

Did you upload this to repo? I can't wait for it...

[winter rampart]

yes

its awaiting approval

[robust patio]

nice

[quaint flint]

should i release pessima two tone

[winter rampart]

yes

on wotld of mode

[latent ivy]

Has the audio.zip always been encrypted?

[devout solstice]

yes

[latent ivy]

Lol

[shadow gorge]

For copyright reasons iirc

[latent ivy]

Yeah i opened it, I get it was for copyright now since they bought them I believe

I’ve never seen licensees like that, especially just putting it behind a zip, interesting

[static musk]

Don't really know what channel to ask in, but I need help obtaining a copy of the pre-model improvement Roamer/Pickup. With the squareish dashboards. Preferably full .zip, but otherwise roamer.dae (assuming there's not a separate interior.dae) and corresponding interior .jbeams. I'm working on a project and would like to base my new interior on the older Roamer interior, rather than trying to force the new mesh to be more square and having to redo the UV's.

My backup drive failed or I'd pull it myself, and the beta still has the updated mesh. Or 4.X beta doesn't have the Roamer at all.

[latent ivy]

I would give it to you, but Idk how the rules here are about that

If it’s okay than I can give you any version 13 to now

2013*

[static musk]

It's for the same game lol. AFAIK mods of any sort on the vanilla content is allowed.

But I digress. If even just the mesh itself would be great.

[latent ivy]

I’m in bed right now, so if someone doesn’t get to you by tonight I can give you them tomorrow

[static musk]

Alrighty.

[latent ivy]

What year of build do you want?

[static musk]

Long story short, I'm making the Roamer into a Ford Explorer/Expedition. I dunno really. I'll go check what version it launched.

[latent ivy]

I could do the .7.0.2 one

If that was pre facelift

Circa like 2016

[static musk]

I think that's far enough back

[latent ivy]

Kk

[static musk]

General idea of the direction I will be going in with my mod

More leaning towards the Explorer, as it's the same general size as the Roamer

But it will have an Expedition/Excursion (for EXT Models/25/35) Fascia/Lights.

And the modelwork thereof.

And in the event "Show the Polys" comes up, the entire Fascia mesh was made from this single strip of polys from the valance. Headlights are modified default Roamer.

[winter rampart]

nice, is it done?

[static musk]

Not quite. Need to apply mirror, and fix/create the UV's. For skinning and stuff. PLan to release a Powerglow/Lightrunner skin for it and Roamer with it.

Very early Powerglow Skin Test

[winter rampart]

what about the rear?

[static musk]

The rear is a straight up copy of a Lincoln Navigator IMO, and I don't really see a reason to change it, but I might do something back there. Kinda want to make Fibre-Optic LED's.

Vanilla face-lift taillights+old(late) tailgate would be very close

And that's an era-appropriate Explorer. Looks similar to the old Roamer imo

As far as Fascia goes

What will likely happen: Explorer Fascia for 15 series. Escape Fascia for "Roadsport" variants (Sportier looking fascia). Expedition for 25 Series (Middle Weight SUV). Excursion for 35 Series/Police Vehicles. Non-overwriting. Configs for Roamer.

And since the Excursion and E250/350 share fascias, it will be coming to H-Series as well. And for D-Series: Ford Escape for Custom i4/V6 Engine variant 2/4 Door Short Bed (Ford Ranger Stand-in). Ford Explorer for Sport Models (Sport-Trac Stand-in)(or maybe early model Raptor?)(maybe both even, with V6 Sport Trac and V8 Raptor?). F150 (2010-2014 facelift) for D-15. F250/350 for D-25/35/Ambulance. Ford Expedition for Police/Park Ranger.

Vehicles will be displayed in-game as "Fort" brand with bland versions of the normal vehicle names to avoid copyright.

And 5 crossbars on each fascia instead of 4.

Or something. Maybe keep Gavril and the naames.

[winter rampart]

i think you should keep gavril since it would be weird to have a seperate car with the same things

[static musk]

Alright. Meshes exported. Now to add them to the car.

[static musk]

Name ideas:

Escape: Trip
Explorer: Traveler
Expedition: Journey
Excursion: Mission

In keeping with the Roamer theme.

2010 Gavril Roamer Trip

Or

2010 Gavril Trip.

[wispy sun]

I was gonna use voyager 😭

[static musk]

Better? 😛

Makes sense. It'll mostly be heavy offroaders/trailer haulers/police.

Or I could just do

2010 Roamer 1500 etc.

Like the different names tho.

[wispy sun]

You're making different bodystyles for the bigger suvs?

[static musk]

Heavier frames already exist. But not planning at this point, no. Just bigger fascias. Though the EXT's will only be Missions.

Not reinventing the wheel. Just making it better looking. And adding a bit of variety.

AFAIK they're all the same frame platform IRL, with different bodies. Except the Escape, as it's a FWD frame.

[wispy sun]

I don't think explorer and expedition are the same frame

[static musk]

I'll have to look it up. I'm probably wrong lol.

I know that the Sport Track was a helluva weird vehicle. It's the truck version of the Explorer.

[safe timber]

yes

shit looks bussin

[static musk]

Some minor fixes to be made. TBH I'm amazed I didn't manage to crash it.

[drowsy leaf]

Wen melted headlights

[static musk]

Much better.

And I didn't even break UV's lol

[winter rampart]

Panel gaps tho 😬

[winter rampart]

Well

At least it consistent

And it's not That Bad

[shadow gorge]

better than tesla

:trol:

[drowsy leaf]

trol

[winter rampart]

[granite lodge]

pikes peak gravel is pretty good

[hidden tartan]

[deep sierra]

ooh rally forest

[mild egret]

Does anybody know about the LKS Lift kit mod

[silent smelt]

can anyone help me my mods folder isnt working when i try and put files in

[ebon saddle]

Where are you putting it in? The Documents folder? Or going into Appdata > Local > Beamng?

[median solstice]

I just don't understand why there are such broken mods on the repo and non-broken, perfectly working mods in the forums not uploaded to the repo

lmao this is kinda funny tho

[mighty basin]

you know that mods can become outdated from game updates?

[drowsy leaf]

they updated the legran so...

same happend with all of the revamps

pigon skins are broken

some covet mods were

[shadow gorge]

Got da OO legran

Drip

[granite lodge]

lmar

[latent ivy]

The infinite legran 🥵 😳

[drowsy leaf]

ppl now acusing @fossil ore of stealing a forester model for his trekker, ffks

https://www.beamng.com/resources/prefacelift-hawkeye-sunburst-restyle.19694/ ffks its already gone

[mighty basin]

Forester looks like Forester, who knew

[granite lodge]

:shadobadbane:

[latent ivy]

bruh

[vapid olive]

yeah

smile should delete their account

lmfao

[latent ivy]

why tho

is he toxic on other forum pages

[vapid olive]

no

look what hes causing on the forester thread

hes so held up over proving his "opinion" correct

[vapid olive]

btw its not really "other people" its essentially only just smile

lmfao

[drowsy leaf]

i asked to compare the poliflow of this image

[vocal frigate]

What mods do I need so i can put the crash test dummy inside a car

[dusty kite]

idk

[vapid olive]

smile is just baiting at this point

[trim gulch]

Oh it is the same

Not the doors tho

[ebon saddle]

yes, subaru forster looks like subau forester.

[granite lodge]

no way

[trim gulch]

untriangulate messed polyflow

[strange violet]

wow my screenshot

[trim gulch]

is a good one

[plush glade]

im done

[trim gulch]

been real quiet since proof dropped

curious

[dusty kite]

yes true

but one thing i still not understand is what is his purpose

for doing this

i saw him make a lot of models from scratch over the time

and he can make pretty good jbeam also

so why continue to reuse models after sunburst?

[drowsy leaf]

hes probs tired asf

[sick shard]

Oop

[plucky charm]

finally ck did something

[small olive]

Jsz shouldve stayed banned

[granite lodge]

what happened

[plucky charm]

he cleared all the drama out

[granite lodge]

good

[gaunt quest]

Sorry what

I'm utterly list on what the hecks happening

Lemme smchecj his server

[small olive]

I can bet my right ball this is stolen mesh as well

[drowsy leaf]

wip of the sm320

[small olive]

Oof

Rip your sanity

[fossil ore]

no

[small olive]

Making jbeams in nbe

[drowsy leaf]

what do you suggest, ik i can use the blender exporter but idk

[small olive]

Yes

Its much better

To get a base jbeam

[drowsy leaf]

but how do i sort out naming, do i just make the nodes and then beams in nbe?

[small olive]

You can choose prefix in exporter

[onyx dirge]

I make a mock Jbeam in Blender
then copy paste the coordinates with names into jbeam via notepad

[small olive]

Or that

[drowsy leaf]

yeah, or just use exporter and rename the nodes in notepad

gives same result

[onyx dirge]

I like to do it the manual way cause then I can organize beams and tune them properly in groups as I go

[dusty kite]

maybe but i still dont understand his reason

the questions is why

[small olive]

"Guys look im cool im making lore friendly mods in record time"

I called bs the moment i saw subaru

Literally

[dusty kite]

the trekker?

[small olive]

No the impreza

[dusty kite]

oh

i thought trekker was more eh

i imported the FS model on giants

[small olive]

Trekker is even worse in that regard

[dusty kite]

the quarterpanel is the same

[small olive]

He stole everything from that model but doors

[dusty kite]

likely

[drowsy leaf]

or make a non lore friendly, or make a etk a style thing

[small olive]

You see

[dusty kite]

oh yeah also his etk olympia mods

[plucky charm]

It’s kind of a shame

[small olive]

The problem isnt a model

Its the personality

[dusty kite]

im guessing those are never going to see the light of day as well

[small olive]

The model he used is CC-Attribution afaik

[dusty kite]

the sunburst model is something different though

[small olive]

Where he should have just credited the original creator

And no drama

[dusty kite]

he posted images of the model 10 month ago and the cc model from sketchfab is 6 mo ago

[small olive]

But he had to feed his ego

[plucky charm]

still hyped for the A-Series 2.0

[small olive]

Not his model anyways

[dusty kite]

true

[small olive]

So yeah

[dusty kite]

but then he can't just credit

since nobody knows the original maker

[small olive]

Reminds me of 2fast

[dusty kite]

the whole thing is just incredibly dumb seems to me

[small olive]

Where they literally used a model from a leaked sa mod that used stolen model

And put it on repo

Literally jsz tried to do the same thing and try to not get noticed

[dusty kite]

yeah

one thing is more suspicous about the trekker though

im thinking that jsz knew it would end up like this the entire time

i saw the old leaked posts on the discord

he never explicity confirm or deny he made the model

[plucky charm]

Now I face a moral dilemma, do I delete the Impreza mod or not

[dusty kite]

and also kept mentioning that he "can't release it"

[small olive]

Ima be real, i can reveal one more thing im working on

It was supposed to mock jsz

[drowsy leaf]

:yes:

[small olive]

But i really bought the model

Didnt steal it

[dusty kite]

lol

[small olive]

And wanted people to notice

[drowsy leaf]

why did jsz get banned a long time ago? i wasnt in the community then

[dusty kite]

alts

that was another huge drama back then

[small olive]

Anyways im already modelling the interior

[dusty kite]

oh i see

[small olive]

And underbody

[dusty kite]

thats the dev screen posts you had?

[small olive]

Mhm

[granite lodge]

damn

[dusty kite]

nice

[granite lodge]

now you're working on 3 mods at once
wat
how

[dusty kite]

but regarding jsz, im still not sure whats going on with him

[small olive]

Yes

[plucky charm]

Jargl CX4?

[small olive]

Mhm

[plucky charm]

😳

[dusty kite]

i seen a lot of his real models and they aren't even bad

like ones he posted live wip of

[latent ivy]

hey 1 question does anybody know a good subaru impreza/wrx mod?

[dusty kite]

such as etk olympia

[plucky charm]

does it crash nicely or like “2017 Lamborghini aventador free mod download on modsbeam.net”

[amber minnow]

i think this map is beyond broken

[plucky charm]

I mean

[gaunt quest]

What the heck

[plucky charm]

not anymore

[granite lodge]

what gen impreza WRX
if its gen 3 then you're about 3 hours too late

[latent ivy]

i saw one before but i cant find it might be deleted /:

[plucky charm]

It was deleted

[latent ivy]

damn

[small olive]

It will, not ingame yet

[plucky charm]

it might return but prolly not

[plucky charm]

ah

[dusty kite]

probably not

[plucky charm]

I should probably delete the mod off my pc

[dusty kite]

its probably on its way to modsgaming already

anyways

[gaunt quest]

Hey I still have dunwulfs pack

For some reason

[latent ivy]

im kinda struggling to find good mods

[gaunt quest]

Like it's literally on a thumbdrive around my neck with other mod backups.

Because yes I always have mod backups in a flash drive

[granite lodge]

the hawkeye sunburst?

[plucky charm]

yeah

[granite lodge]

i mean
i'll keep it
even though it might be a stolen model, its worth to keep like exorion's mods

[plucky charm]

true

[vapid olive]

someone in the forester thread went "lole similar polyflow" and started mayhem

[dusty kite]

well yeah

[robust sage]

Tread lightly.

[dusty kite]

and the guy who posted all the images got banned

[vapid olive]

good

he deserves to get banned

[dusty kite]

smile or whatever their name was

[granite lodge]

it was Ringt0n's alt

[dusty kite]

how do you know

bruh

[vapid olive]

it doesn't matter

they're gone now

everythings back in order

https://tenor.com/view/so-we-did-a-little-trolling-troll-trollage-trollface-gif-20943439

[plush glade]

why

he was pointing out the truth

[vapid olive]

no he wasn't lmfao

[dusty kite]

just stop

jsz already admitted

so we don't need to do this anymore

[robust sage]

Again

Tread

lightly.

Any further mentions of the topic will be met with punishment

k?

thx

[cloud pike]

^
This, he admitted to what wasn't his and clarified some things. Whether true or not it really could have avoided lots of drama if he just said he got some help with the model and it wasn't entirely his.

[sick shard]

What did @fossil ore get exposed for?

I saw something but can someone sum it up

[drowsy leaf]

uh "stealing" models

[hidden tartan]

@sick shard you might want to read this.

[sick shard]

Oop my bad didn’t see that

[wild raft]

What do you think about this?

also added the window labels

[dense portal]

Yes

I might look at our NX’s glass text and use that on the CCF2

[wild raft]

just be aware that it won't be particularly high res unless you make the window texture huge

[frank kelp]

that's awesome

[wild raft]

:3

[winter rampart]

when your mod is more detailed than vanilla cars lmao

[wild raft]

Yes

I hope there isn't a character limit on how long an update post can be

[latent ivy]

I mean, detail doesnt make quality. You can have a poor quality detailed model and a high quality less detailed one

[winter rampart]

damn lmaoooo

[robust sage]

Keep in mind that for Beam there is such a thing as too much detail

[wild raft]

Depends in which way

[latent ivy]

I mean I would argue I would rather not have stuff like those airbag stickers and the center light if they are that low res so close to the player in the car

[robust sage]

Too many tris can be detrimental to deformation

[wild raft]

the light texture looks a bit off as I cranked the glow value a bit in blender

[robust sage]

too detailed textures can look out of place

and cause worse performance

[latent ivy]

its also smearly low res

[latent ivy]

unless thats some weird bloom or something

[wild raft]

it was some bloom
like I said, i cranked the emission in blender which is why it looked so weird

[latent ivy]

well I dont see how that would make the texture look all smeared?

if you painted in bloom then I sure as heck hope this isnt supposed to be a pbr model

[wild raft]

Wait that's a program?

Or...?

[latent ivy]

whats a program

[wild raft]

"If you painted in bloom"

[latent ivy]

yeah, why is it looking weird and glowy in the texture

like its leaving the rectangles where I would expect the light to be

making it look like bloom got painted in or something

[wild raft]

because that's the glow texture that i overlayed

And yea

[latent ivy]

so you basically painted in the bloom is what I mean lol

or is that the glowmap

just for seeing it in blender

[wild raft]

it's the glowmap

[granite lodge]

holy

[latent ivy]

ah ok, I thought that was painted in the base color lol

[wild raft]

this is the (rather basic) texture of the domelight

This is the one that goes on top when it's on

[latent ivy]

I see I see, watch out for that black btw if you are doing pbr

[wild raft]

it looks rather janky as all the reference images I had were rather weird angles

[latent ivy]

yeah I mean, its a light. cant go wrong with that really lol

[wild raft]

Can you just set certain PBR values like roughness for example to a constant value instead of needing a map comparable to null.dds if you don't really need a full texture map for this property? I haven't looked much into PBR yet

In game that is

[drowsy leaf]

I am guilty of doing that

Yes you can

[wild raft]

good

[latent ivy]

you can, but you need to understand some values to make sure it is pbr compliant

so metallic should be zero or 1

basically nothing should be roughness 0/1 99% of the time

etc

[wild raft]

yea I looked into it that far

I can preview the rough effects of it in game in blender i suppose

[wild raft]

the other ones got no texture yet, will come soon tho

[dry surge]

lol

when a mod goes poof after someone was working on it for so long

[winter rampart]

where are you looking

no

automation section is bad

look in the top downloaded of the repository
