[blissful oxide]

real walmsly

[chilly niche]

A W211 E-Class Merc

[wheat mango]

yeah i can read

but it has zero relevance to walmsley

[chilly niche]

Mid-range luxury segment, quad headlights, they have similarities but I mean there's nothing else to it

Both from the 2000's

[chilly niche]

I know just kidding lol

[sullen tide]

WHAT??? absolutely the furthest you can go from a waaaalmsley

[mellow spoke]

walmey irl

[boreal loom]

i'll buy one in a year or two, thanks for bringing into beam :)

[mild gyro]

No 😭

[mossy haven]

Kuhl but I think that is a Kia

See the difference

But still that’s cool cause that’s a rare Kia

[valid sorrel]

Fake wall

Looks kinda like a merc

[dense skiff]

Kia Opirus

[dense skiff]

that's the point of the car

[feral sundial]

ive see those all the time

[mossy haven]

I’ve only seen one like once

[young hemlock]

Isnt that like a 1st gen hyundai equus

[mossy haven]

No it's a kia of some sort but I cant remember the name

[boreal loom]

oh you mean the kia opirus

[mossy haven]

Yeah that one is it

[valid vault]

My coworker drives one of those

[eager saffron]

[valid vault]

😭

[eager saffron]

[hollow shell]

its a vehicle that is like, we need a car to compete with chrysler but look like one, explain it too me, over the phone. and thats the bloody result

[chilly niche]

Reminds me of the 2000's Ford Thunderbird

[odd valley]

Hey guys ChrisFix there

[chilly niche]

It's the grill design and circular headlights

That reminds me of it

[sullen tide]

Yeah no shit... that looks absolutely nothing like that Kia but like 0%

I see what you mean but no lol

[chilly niche]

"You see" what I mean but still give me a 0%?

[sullen tide]

Yes because grill design and round headlights dont mean anything there are 1000s of cars with that

[chilly niche]

God's sake I didn't say they were the same. Just that the grill design and those headlights reminded me of the Thunderbird

And it is very viable because the 2000's were huge on retro styling

It all ties in

[rotund canyon]

JAAAAAAAAAG

X-Type when? (I'm an X-Type owner)

[sullen tide]

Whatever bro I smell some rage so im just gonna let it go lmao

[sullen tide]

WAAAAAALMMMM* : )

[chilly niche]

Please, huh? Don't need to be so hostile

"I smell some rage" I was just telling you not everything is a personal attack

Just leave it out and do whatever it is you do

[dense skiff]

What a downgrade when I'm thinking about it

[chilly niche]

It was the style at the time, retro looks

But it did also sell like crap lol

[dense skiff]

yeah.. BUT ! The only car that I like with the retro look (everyone will hate me so bad) is the Chevy SSR

[chilly niche]

Hahahaha

We all know that peak Retrolook isn't the Jag S-Type, Thunderbird, or the Mini Cooper

It's

The Chrylser PT Cruiser

[dense skiff]

fr

the brother of my friend got one 2.0L diesel with a TURBO

I think I do have some video or maybe no

[chilly niche]

Sounds pretty rad

[dense skiff]

Wanna keep guessing or shall I reveal it?

[valid sorrel]

That’s not at all a valid explanation for a stereotype :(

[rotund canyon]

Gavril with a Walm badge? Preposterous!

Actually now we need a Burnside or Gavril based off this thing

for the reals

[vocal frost]

not the ABD 1.4?

[dense skiff]

No

We NEED an Jaguar XJ

[rotund canyon]

We NEED a Jaguar XK8

[bright yoke]

Just saw this for the first time, I just wanna say that this thing looks beautiful

May as well insult Messi in front of a group of Argentinians

[bright yoke]

Wait what's wrong with the mondeo

[vast solstice]

It might be the most bland car i've ever seen...

[bright yoke]

So? Lots of old volvos (just as an example) are bland, that doesn't mean they aren't nice cars

[vast solstice]

Nahh, old volvo's have character

Mondeos... just seem unnoticeable

[bright yoke]

I kinda like that about it ngl

[lost belfry]

put this fucker in an ST200

then he’ll get it

[misty cargo]

Isn't it ST220

the ST200 came first

it was a revision of the ST24

No need to spam or send random messages that have absolutely nothing to do with the thread

[mental thicket]

your micro-modding is also off topic is it not?

||as is mine ||

[proud olive]

There has literally been nothing posted by the OP of the mod. Is he okay?

[bright yoke]

Probably just inactive on discord

[silk mica]

Mini moders be do to much like 🤧

Anyway can't wait to run over curbs n this

[storm nexus]

I'm sorry for the late news guys
There is not so many progress at the moment, because motivation for modding has dropped and I am busy with my recent studies etc

[solar nest]

You're totally fine. The real world's more important than a mod for a video game. Take all the time you need.

[foggy turtle]

Dont fret over it, yer career and schoolwork is more important than making a fictional jaguar in a game

[carmine steeple]

any progress?

[wheat mango]

please read literally 3 messages above

[tulip marsh]

this is crazy

[tulip marsh]

good luck with your studies

[foggy turtle]

[marsh gale]

real

[wintry spire]

when relase will be?

[blissful oxide]

When it's ready

[scenic leaf]

If this is based on the Jaguar S-Type of the similar time period, then lore-wise, this Walmsley would’ve been made around the same time the company was getting cozy with Gavril.

[fathom patrol]

Probably

But at least I can still let me borrow some oil paintings and silverware

[spiral jackal]

bro stop asking this in every single mod forum

[wintry spire]

No

[sour yarrow]

You just need to be patient

[rotund canyon]

Anyone who insults the X-Type by calling it a rebadged Mondeo forget just how amazing the MK3 Mondeo is

Single handedly beat the 3-Series and Audi A4

[vast solstice]

wth is the x type and why do I care

[rotund canyon]

Its my Jag. Its one of Jaguar's most controversial and best selling models. 350,000 units sold. 3 series competitor. 2001-2008. Shared 20% of its parts with the MK3 Ford Mondeo.

Very underrated AWD car. Has the same transmission from the Lancer EVO 9 and X.

Jeremy Clarkson loved it, Richard Hammond hated it.

[vast solstice]

oh, i dont care if it shares parts, i mean a base model Golf and a top range Audi are the same car mechanically XD

[rotund canyon]

Thats true

Which is weird, since everyone bashed the X-Type for having a Ford AC Unit, while its main competitor, the Audi A4 was a Passat with leather seats and nobody mentioned that.

Everyone who says the X-Type is garbage for being a rebadged Mondeo, are ignoring the fact that the MK3 Mondeo is a fantastic car.

The Mondeo alone can beat ze Germans in ride quality and speed

[vast solstice]

i jsut dont like it because of how it looks, nothing else

[fading garden]

as a british person, seeing this car with an american license plate makes me feel unusual and unsettled

[fading garden]

did you just say... "jawhyurs" 😨

[rotund canyon]

I mean America was one of its prime markets

and it sold pretty well here

[rotund canyon]

I typically stick to the Clarkson Jaaaag

when i feel extra posh I say Jag-u-er

half the time its Jagwar

[bright yoke]

I say "Jaaaaaag" or "Jag-wire"

[lofty dagger]

I’m watching top gear rn and may is driving a jag lol

I’ve been binge watching the whole series from begin to end then the grand tour, about 1-3 episodes a day

[shrewd igloo]

i normally pronounce it jagwar

[harsh path]

WHAT

[turbid crystal]

O yes ChrisFix gifted his dad one of those

But it got bricked or something after over 200k miles

[scenic leaf]

Yeah, bought it for his dad 8 years ago when it was sitting at 130,000 miles.

And then 4 years ago, classic British reliability struck and the car became more and more unpleasant to drive, so he got his dad a Maserati Quattroporte.

2 years ago, the car got a head gasket leak, so he did a video where he tested sealer products. It is unknown what happened to the car, but we can assume it was either sold or junked after he did that video.

[turbid crystal]

I already know all of that but thanks

[rotund canyon]

Yea

Porsche and Cosworth Designed motor, built by Ford, modified by Jaguar, transmission from a Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X, transfer case from a Volvo, and the entire interior from the S-Type

[rotund canyon]

Apparently ScottyKilmer also had one

[turbid crystal]

That is not in character with him

He just idolizes Toyotas and then downplays almost any other brand istg

[rotund canyon]

I have no idea why, but he bought one and it was really nice.

[harsh path]

Mr. Worldwide

[peak bronze]

It's cuz it had the Mondeo diesel

So every time you saw an X Type there was an 80% chance it sounded like a transit van

Because it was the best selling one too

[rotund canyon]

Yea thats true for European markets

America only got V6 AWD models. The 2.5 or the 3.0

[hard smelt]

good choice brother

[modern veldt]

When this fine piece of art coming out?

[sullen tide]

Yesterday

Ive blown up the police HQ on west coast but thats okay cus I own a Waaaaaaalmmmm

[fathom patrol]

I wish there to be an option to put a “borrowed” oil painting and pile of silverware in the boot

[scenic leaf]

That or a trunk full of like coolant jugs, rubber belts, a tool kit, several socket sets, all of that just to meme on the fact that Jags and other British cars are not really reliable. 🤭

source: trust me bro

[rotund canyon]

Walm for sale

[valid vault]

why is the walm heavily discounted?

[rotund canyon]

Cause its a V6
Lol

[bright yoke]

Factually incorrect statement

[sullen tide]

I meant that particular model with the V6 bruh 😭 beamcords users going insane rn

Imagine wanting a beat up V6, youre gonna pay more in repairs than the car is actually worth

[storm nexus]

According to my walmsley lore, Walmsley has not done a stupid rebranding like a real Jaguar

Good

jaguar is dead anyways , its by name only now like many former british automakers

will there be a daimler version?

[chilly niche]

S-Type never had a Daimler equivalent. But it'd still be cool to have one nonetheless

But I doubt a V12 would fit in :(

So it could be a V8 S-Type with just more chrome trim I suppose

[rotund canyon]

Supercharged V8 S-Type with 19 inch chromies

[rotund canyon]

Lmao yea I made a video about it

Its Joever

[rotund canyon]

Couldnt we name it Lyon.

sounds like a cat

but then again

WAAAAAAAALM sounds better than Lyyyyyyyyy

"Terribly sorry but I rear ended your Pigeon"

"😦"

"IN MAH WAAAAAALM"

"😍"

[rotund canyon]

Precisely

Can confirm as a Walm owner

[keen flint]

Idk what it is but Walmsley just sounds kaddish, like Jaguar

It has the same sorta "Golf club owner who's work staff only include exes" feel

[grave terrace]

its the smugness in the name

[keen flint]

That's what it is, Walmsley is a very smug and better than you name, or some sort of Bond Villain

[chilly niche]

After a French town?

[rotund canyon]

Walmsley is Sir William Lyon's business partner, they started Jaguar Cars back when it was SS Cars

He left when it was renamed to Jaguar

OT: trying to remember something about diesel

[wraith root]

Especially with the ad

[rotund canyon]

X-Type superior

[shell saffron]

As a Saab driver
Who owned an S Type

No, I think I was good

[rotund canyon]

Epi

[sterile rock]

sorry if there isnt a link but is there?

[turbid crystal]

Nah the mod's still a WIP, so it's not released yet

[sterile rock]

ah alr

[eager sphinx]

fiona have you ever tried owning a vehicle that could be considered reliable

[rotund canyon]

They're both reliable

(My Jaguar hasnt broken down in 3000 miles and I'm partying)

[hard oak]

bro 💀

[rotund canyon]

Its reliable

100%

[carmine steeple]

I got a cool idea maybe make a jumping Orange Cat as a logo like the Jaguar had the Jaguar so Walmsley can have an orange cat named Walmsley

Idk maybe a stupid idea but maybe?

[hard oak]

Turn walmsley logo into new jaguar rebranded

Jkjk

It doesn't look that bad that logo

More suited for a cafe/restaurant than a car brand I think

[carmine steeple]

Frfr

Or a clothing store

[radiant pelican]

The new Jaguar logo is 100% a clothing/fashion line style.

And a hideous one at that.

[hard oak]

Yes the style of the commercial is very fashion-y

So, it is not about wokeness

They literally hired the wrong people

💀

[radiant pelican]

Lol

As a graphic designer it hurts me.

[hard oak]

It doesn't look that bad, the logo, it's just really out of style for an automotive brand that used to make "masculine" cars (V8 rumble, RWD, idk)

[radiant pelican]

It doesn't fit at all.

Car brands have simple text and use their logo/emblem to speak about who they are.

Instead they let their text speak for them and it says "we don't know what we are".

[weary comet]

and also destroying your like 100 year old heritage

[wraith root]

Yeah and the ad has no cars for a car brand

[ocean crown]

any updates for the waaaalms?

[runic harness]

I think docro is taking a break from this mod

[digital walrus]

genuinely what went wrong

[long pelican]

She looks like she wants to get out of here

[near radish]

she looks like she is being sculpted in some 3d program

[chilly niche]

Are we even sure it's a "she"??

[near radish]

idk but it looks like somebody used the blender boolean tool with a cube on her hair

[elder sonnet]

Forgot that Jaguar hired the circus for their rebrand XD

[lyric dust]

looool

are you assuming their gender? That´s cruel from you

[wraith root]

😭

[red furnace]

😬

[hot jacinth]

Are you offended?

Also "sharts" 💀

[proud olive]

Ohhh boy

[near radish]

wait shit you might be right

look at bros upper body

[red furnace]

nah thats just cringe af

jokes like that stopped being funny like 8 years ago

[turbid crystal]

They look like they could be a part of Bladerunner

I almost wanna say the Capital people in Hunger Games but not enough makeup fr

[dense fossil]

Thats a ragebait

I hope

[turbid crystal]

Shit ragebait

Barely anybody did trans jokes in 2016

And thats not even offensive vro 😭

[red furnace]

looks like u werent around in 2016 then

[near radish]

Nobody did trans jokes in 2016 lol

At least not very many

[river rapids]

Dawg wtf is going on in this thread 💀

I wish I could filter threads and only see things the author posted. I think there’s a new development update and it’s just whiny ass mfs being angry about jaguar rebrand 😭

[hard oak]

yes

[hard oak]

we are no whiny ass mfs

we genuinely care about jaguar

the brand was ruined by yk

[river rapids]

bro they showed off one concept car that looks kinda shit and yall are all like

[hard oak]

because it is

😭

[red furnace]

exactly lmao

[near radish]

i mean it is over

but not because of rebrand

just because they stopped making ice cars and started making ugly evs instead

also im pretty sure all (at least for a long time) new cars are gonna be in the same style as the concept they showed off

[river rapids]

Waaahhhh EVs waaahhhh big engine sound make cocky go boing boing!!!!

[wraith root]

i think rebrand ruined it

also why yall calling that cringe and rage bait

its funny

nobody likes rebrand

[wraith root]

have you seen the rebrand no cars the in commercial

[river rapids]

Dawg it’s not like it’s the first commercial not to show any cars

It’s for the company as a whole, not the cars individually

Don’t get me wrong I’m not trying to die on the hill of jaguar or anything I think the concept looks ugly as shit

But like

Yall need to chill the fuck out lmao

[wraith root]

i mean it is for the whole company but the whole company is a car company and overall the ad is terrible i mean what are those people even wearing. the people who like jaguar dont like this nobody does

they kinda did it to themselves if the people hate it the people hate it i mean ya cant say that all those people are wrong cause you have a different opinion.

[near radish]

exactly bro

also, i dont know if you know this but they said they would abandon everything of the past

so jaguar quite literally is dead

this is a new thing under the same name

[limber spire]

Then make a new brand

[river rapids]

Jaguar has been dead since 2008 when Tata bought it lil bro

[near radish]

agree but harder than abusing existing ip

[near radish]

idk im not extremely interested in most jags

especially not newer ones

[sullen tide]

Yeah Jag hasnt made a good car since the 1st gen F type

[dusty ridge]

Car industry is literally braindead

[mental shore]

jag is trying to destroy themselve

s

jaguar listens to their fans as much as a crying 3 year old wanting a toy lol

to their mom

[dusty ridge]

Jag is literally sadomasochistic brand rn

[grave terrace]

Bad publicity is still free publicity

[chilly niche]

Jaguar has no customer base, does it?

Who should it even listen to?

Can't listen to people on the internet that don't buy them

Porsche wanted more EVs, customers didn't buy them

So Porsche scaled back

[valid vault]

whatever the fuck they made was not free

[grave terrace]

Thats not the point. It got people talking about jaguar, when was the last time that happened

It’s even happening right now

[rotund canyon]

Ignore the hate. Look at a "real" Jag

[chilly niche]

Proceeds to share the Jag made fully out of Ford's partsbin 😭

[elder sonnet]

Even if it's made from parts out of the bin , it's still way better than the new concept cars

[chilly niche]

True...

It is still a good car

It's handsome

And classy

[elder sonnet]

Like all jaguars should be

Let's just honestly stop talking about the rebrand now, it's been weeks since that happened

[hard oak]

what a jag should be
🔥

[rotund canyon]

20% of it is Ford parts

Mostly AC unit and electrics

As someone who's rebuilt one, I wish it was a rebadged Ford

[chilly niche]

I believe it resides on a Ford Mondeo's chassis?

I was being rather ironic in that statement

The X-Type may share some core components, but it is a Jag throughout still

and still a good car

[oblique harbor]

The X would've been super neat if it was RWD

like a softer more comfort oriented 3 series

[rotund canyon]

It was based off the Mondeo

[lost belfry]

premier group mentioned

[rotund canyon]

However everything firewall and back is designed specifically for the X-Type, and the design is based off the RWD XJ

The X-Type is chassis wise a RWD car, but the front is transverse because of the Mondeo roots

[rotund canyon]

Honestly yeaaa, but Ford didnt have a chassis 3 series size that was RWD, and shortening the S-Type frame was out of budget

[rotund canyon]

I'm a PAG head

[quick compass]

https://youtu.be/yhgdrDPhCdQ?si=C6HxWII-LOQDPapH

[lost belfry]

where do you think I learned of it lol

[quick compass]

That video

[lost belfry]

corsicar goated

[quick compass]

Yes

[rotund canyon]

Corsicar is goated

I need a PAG era Volvo very badly

[dense skiff]

a mondeo u mean ?

[dense skiff]

not for me 😭

[rotund canyon]

Barely any ford parts on it lmao

[dense skiff]

Barely ?

[rotund canyon]

20% at most

Mostly stuff u cant see like AC or the drivetrain.

I cant even buy Ford gaskets for it cause they're Jaguar specific

[dense skiff]

And also the whole base

The x-type is based on the mondeo mk3

Atleast it's a mondeo so I won't say anything

[rotund canyon]

Yea thats real

Everyone dotes on the X-Type, but forget the Mondeo MK3 is a goated car.

[blissful oxide]

WALMSLEY PROGRESS ‼️ 🗣️

[eager sphinx]

looks really really good :)

it has the J gate too, awesome, dont think i noticed til now

really appreciate that youre still slowly chipping away at this thing 👍

[storm nexus]

[eager sphinx]

[empty aspen]

pog

[runic harness]

Hes back!!

[ocean crown]

Wooow new progress, I was waiting for nothing else!🥹

just a question to stay on-topic, will Walm also have the new lighting system?

[river rapids]

lol I love the little airbag sticker

[rotund canyon]

Me about to splurge:

I just realized the majority of the X-Type interior is carried over from the S-Type

[dense skiff]

btw I heard that mondeos ST220 and Jaguars X-type 3.0L V6 is pretty fun to boost with a turbo

but most of the time they use the jaguars V6 bc it has better tehcnology than the ST220 one

[rotund canyon]

Yea the Jag's AJ V6 isnt exactly just a Ford Duratec with different badges. They have different heads and VVT. Making a bit more power and a bit better mpg

Boosted AJ V6s are hella cool tho

The Mondeo and X-Type chassis is also fantastic, the X-Type drives more like a RWD car than you'd think

[misty cargo]

I would to find one with the estate body

[rotund canyon]

Estates in the US are like fine wine lmao

Only 7,000 sold here

So realistically...

The rarest Jaguar X-Type color would he Emerald Green Metallic (my X-Types color) with only 3-5% of cars with it. And it was only available from 2002-2004.

So

The Estate was only offered in 2004-2009

With the rarest powertrain option being the 3.0L V6 with the 5 speed manyal

So

A 2004 Jaguar X-Type Estate in Emerald Green Metallic with a 3.0L V6 Sport Package and a 5 speed manual would be the rarest possible X-Type ever

[river rapids]

[limber spire]

hot

[tiny matrix]

erectile disfunction pickle

[runic harness]

Cool idea, but i think we should let docro work on the sedan version first

[rotund canyon]

Augh, yes. Aughhhhh

YESSSSSS

YEASSSSS

[river rapids]

Ah yeah wasn’t really a suggestion just wanted to post it since ppl were talking about the x type estate lol

[runic harness]

@river rapids thats a good idea tho

[rotund canyon]

XJ estate needed

[rotund canyon]

Yea, Jaguar's first estate was the X-Type

as well as their first FWD car, and first Diesel, and first 4 cylinder, and most sold car during its production period. Why do people hate it bruh

And first car made fully with CAD and computers

and heated windscreen

[dense skiff]

1000€ is the price to pay to reach heaven

[rotund canyon]

Glorious

[shrewd igloo]

wait so thats a mondeo

looks like a geo

[lost belfry]

that’s a mk1

[rotund canyon]

Also known as Ford Contour

or Mercury Mystique

[dense skiff]

Yes first gen but imo I prefer the gen 2

[burnt pagoda]

who i can download it?

[empty aspen]

ITS WIP CAN YOU NOT READ

[burnt pagoda]

Okay

[rotund canyon]

MK3 Mondeo best

[dense skiff]

WRONG

[runic harness]

how about you make a skdm walmsley

[lost belfry]

babe wake up new danny just dropped

[runic harness]

[storm nexus]

[dense egret]

Probably he meant south korea lmao

@storm nexus

[sharp jackal]

[valid vault]

[turbid crystal]

Wouldnt a South Korean version of a car just

be the license plate

correct me if im wrong fr

[storm nexus]

actually

[runic harness]

Hes right tho

[finite pagoda]

as soon as this comes out ima make a private rebadge

[river rapids]

To?

[finite pagoda]

rebadge it as an actual jaguar bcs funi

[sullen tide]

https://tenor.com/view/bobbycord-meme-esmbot-funny-spiderman-gif-24082586

[rotund canyon]

Yes

[eager sphinx]

friend of mine went to look at this earlier today, 3.0 petrol manual with cut springs and a welded diff. probably rather hilarious

[storm nexus]

yo cool

[eager sphinx]

honestly the fact that you could get these with the 3 litre and a 5 speed is still so cool to me

i havent heard his opinion yet but i imagine it's a pretty enjoyable drive

i look forward to trying it in beam (and obviously if he does buy it, replicating his and making videos of it being destroyed in various ways)

[ebon flame]

Will it get yellow rear plates?

[cedar ivy]

sadly ruined

but i dont think stock springs would be that much expensive

diff on the other hand, no idea

[eager sphinx]

funny tho

[limber spire]

Drift beast

[near radish]

With a welded diff? prob not lol

[eager sphinx]

welded diffs are funny

[odd haven]

but a terrible driving experience when doing anything other than drifting

[hollow shell]

Joe, the perfect rims that would suit that is some 17x7.5 maybe the 18x8 Speedline SL2 Marmora in white

[eager sphinx]

hell yeah

[near radish]

Not enjoyable to drive

[eager sphinx]

disagree

deeply amusing

[misty cargo]

I would source out the limited slip diff and swap it out

[odd haven]

amusing, sure. enjoyable? hell no

just constant wheel skipping

[wild moat]

Is this mod still available?

[eager sphinx]

i would disagree personally

skids on every damp roundabout is enjoyable

[wide halo]

where do i download

[wheat mango]

nowhere

its not done

[grave terrace]

"Slow Progress" doesnt mean "Released"

[wide halo]

sorry i didnt know

[wraith root]

bruh welded diffs are my life (I don’t drift)

especially if I get stuck

Really good for offroading and really good if you don’t wanna spin a lot

[scenic leaf]

I own a WAAAAAAAALLLLLM, it is quite polite enough to drift in a roundabout that’s mildly damp

[analog spoke]

what is mxdm?

[odd haven]

Mexican domestic market

[swift gust]

What more can you want than unlimited slip?

[near radish]

limited slip

[red furnace]

would u rather have unlimited grip but no slip
or slip, unlimited slip but limited slip

[near radish]

The latter

[swift gust]

But why

[near radish]

because unlimited slip is not favourable

you only want some slip

explanation:
"In an open diff, power will be put through the easiest 'route' - and if a wheel loses traction, then it becomes the easiest route: it will end up spinning freely. But since there is no traction then the car will not do anything, and you'll have a wheel that does have traction but no power being put to it."

[swift gust]

Depends what you define as favourable

[near radish]

pleasant and/or fast to drive with

[swift gust]

Then our definitions differ 😁

[near radish]

what is your definition of favourable

(in this context)

⁉️

[swift gust]

Shredding tires I guess lmao

[near radish]

limited slip is also far better for that

[shrewd igloo]

in that case ill have to disagree with you

because 2 lines is better than 1 line

on pavement do not freaken take that out of context

[swift gust]

I took it out of context

[eager sphinx]

i deeply apologize for starting this conversation 👍

[near radish]

dawg that is LITERALLY WHAT A LIMITED SLIP DOES

unlimited slip/open diff will not allow you to put power down properly if the wheel slips

[shrewd igloo]

i thought it was still an argument about welded vs limited slip

[shrewd igloo]

yeah limited slip is better than an open diff

[inner wraith]

will there be rhd?

[wheat mango]

it already is

[grave terrace]

Here’s my hot take, British vehicles look weird as LHD

like jaaaags, Land Rovers, rolls royce, rover, etc

But other cars look fine as RHD

Also British plates suit any vehicle too

[shrewd igloo]

alot of newer british vehicles just look weird in general

[red furnace]

how??

the only change is the steering wheel being on a different side

[young hemlock]

or around the same era you could get a classy lil Infiniti i30t 3.0l v6 etc

[true canyon]

An expected release date? Thank you

[wheat mango]

when it's finished

[covert mason]

yes!?

[rotund canyon]

Bad. Jag better

[young hemlock]

meh japanese

more reliableeeeee

i think the infiniti is the clear answer lol

[chilly niche]

My dude it's a Nissan powertrain. Those were hit or miss by the 2000's

[river rapids]

counterpoint: the Infiniti looks generic as shit compared to the jaaaag

[shrewd igloo]

they are both generic boring melty blobs

[chilly niche]

The S-Type is anything but generic

It's got quad headlights, that retro styling

Nothing on the road like it

[oblique harbor]

Except for sure the old S-type which it tries to imitate

but it sure as hell isn't generic

even if it's a bit ugly (but I like the a bit more ugly cars bc of character they have)

[blissful socket]

quick question (sorry if this sounds stupid,) but is there like a demo released?

[wheat mango]

no

[shrewd igloo]

a crap ton of cars look almost exactly like it

mercedes benz e class and the kia amanti to name a few

[chilly niche]

Only thing those got in common are the headlights

[shrewd igloo]

and the styling

[chilly niche]

And the Kia is a 2000's Korean luxury car

They blatanty copy who was successful

[chilly niche]

The W210 and W211 S-Class look NOTHING alike to the Jag

[shrewd igloo]

thing looks almost exactly like the jagaur

[shrewd igloo]

they even made a narrow gril one

[chilly niche]

Again, it's Korean. The Koreans copied whoever was successful

They even got Mercedes lookalikes in their home market

[shrewd igloo]

they are all generic blobs

[chilly niche]

The Mercedes definitely aren't

They're much more angular

W211

Facelift I believe

[shrewd igloo]

that is a blob

[chilly niche]

And the W210

[chilly niche]

A Ford Taurus is a blob

The W211 is not a blob

[shrewd igloo]

this is an angular car

the mercedes is not

[chilly niche]

My man

Find me a car as angular as 1970's US malaise in 2000's Europe

Or the 2000's in general

[shrewd igloo]

80's chrysler

that things even squarer

[chilly niche]

The W124 is a lot more angular than it's successors

[shrewd igloo]

thats a boxier car

[chilly niche]

But it came out in 1984

You cannot compare 1980's design to 2000's design

It's all a sub category

And in the 2000's, the Mercedes models were certainly not blobs

[shrewd igloo]

how is this not a blob

[chilly niche]

Because of how conservatively styled it is, for the late 90's and 2000's

[shrewd igloo]

or this

[chilly niche]

The W203 can be classified as blob-ish this I will agree on

But contemporary cars of that era were still worse

[shrewd igloo]

almost any car built after im gonna say 94 is a melty blob

[chilly niche]

Because you're looking at it in the view of 1983

[chilly niche]

This here was revolutionary when it dropped in '84

But you must take in design in its zeitgeist

[brisk hazel]

This is a brick

[grave terrace]

No thats a block of metal

A brick can break on impact , but not that

[mortal sable]

that is not angular its squares

[brisk hazel]

italian block of metal

[runic harness]

etk w series. sadly its outdated

[chilly niche]

I know, I was a huge fan of it

[quick compass]

Same

[tight hazel]

That actually goes hard tbh

[brisk hazel]

It has a version with a v6 my dad had one of thèse

Hey! Some good news and possibly bad news, haha.

I am taking over this project now. This'll be a huge learning point for me, so progress will be incredibly slow, however I didn't want to let this mod die. I'm happy to be bringing it back. :)

[grave terrace]

any progress is good progress

first question is how much is left to do

[weak robin]

i can't tell you how much im excited for this mod

[earnest pebble]

This could be fun saying the bx boss stuff

[rotund canyon]

YEAAAA BABY, THATS WHAT WE BEEN WAITING FOR

[rotund canyon]

If you need Jag V6 sounds I've gotchu

I got a Jag X-Type, which share a lot of parts with the S-Type

as well as 80% of the interior

[radiant pelican]

I haven't a clue about sounds at all, so at least for now it'll just stay w the sounds it has, but thanks for the offer ^^

Could be handy to have pictures of the gear shifter and pedals though

[rotund canyon]

Indeed.

The whole center stack is shared with the X-Type and S-Type

as well as the gauge cluster

the steering wheel

dash vents

the dome light

the rear view mirror

i believe the handles and the sun visors

[rotund canyon]

so if you need any pictures of those let me know

[radiant pelican]

[radiant pelican]

Thank you

[grizzled tangle]

hey no problem can i ask u a quick question though?

will it have a race/track config?

[radiant pelican]

Probably

[finite pagoda]

nice my dads got a 2000 V6 S-type

[tulip marsh]

i just saw this today

do you have a discord i could join?

[rotund canyon]

Awooga

[radiant pelican]

no

[tulip marsh]

r u gonna make ur own thread for it or stay in this one

[radiant pelican]

No point making a separate one

[dusk agate]

If the race version is becoming a thing can it look like this or something quite close to that

I do know that both stock car and this are very different things and the race config isn’t a sure thing so I’m just suggesting

[tulip marsh]

does/is the car gonna have window tint like docros other mods?

[uncut barn]

I saw some screenshots in the Gill-Rowe thread, since you have creative control now, have you considered changing the brand to match Sznato's Gill-Rowe?

[radiant pelican]

Nah, I don't want to change the brand and all the badging designs, that would mean having to design entirely new badges as well

[radiant pelican]

i havent planned everything yet

i need to work at my own pace, so i probably wont plan ahead

will just be whatever gets done

[tulip marsh]

crazy how it actualy looks like 60's car

I've always thought Jaguar translated the design of the original S-Type so well imo, despite what everyone said about it at the time and even today

I've never seen the 2000's S-Type as an ugly car

And if anyone's interested, here's a review from Top Gear of the car back when it first came out (1999)

it's in an era where everyone were trying to do retro styling on modern cars right(?)

[reef portal]

Indeed, the Mustang, Camaro, and the Challenger are all notable examples, restarting the muscle car craze

[dense egret]

yeah

PT Cruiser, SSR, Prowler also comes to mind

Ford even planned to reintroduce the Bronco back then too, but chose not to. Not sure if it had anything to do with the new Thunderbird not being as much of a runaway success as they had hoped

[dense egret]

oh huh

For anyone interested, this is what the original prototype looked like:

And here's what would've resembled the production version more (had it gone into production):

But enough about that, this is thread about Jaaaaaaags

-# Ignoring the fact that this gen S-Type was infact made by Ford...

Interesting

I mean at the same time they also owned Aston Martin and Land Rover as well, as part of the Premier Automotive Group, along with Volvo and their own brand Lincoln

It's that group that was part of the reason James Bond was finally back in Aston Martins starting in the 2000's, after a run of BMWs in the 90's

You'll notice there's quite a few Fords in those films too

You need to add the paint stains also 🗣️

Excited for this mod fr

Always had a soft spots for Jags (sadly not so much now because of you know what)

[radiant pelican]

I have as well, is why I didn't wanna see this mod go to waste.

However given my current skillset, this mod will take awhile to be finished

[grave terrace]

with how much was done before you overtook it, it shouldnt be as much as starting it from the beginning

[radiant pelican]

Oh yeah ofc, mechanicals are done, main base jbeam is basically done, modelling for the base model is mostly done

Main things for me are gauges, gear shifter, pedals, fixing textures

[reef portal]

Yes they will be added

[reef portal]

Those don't sound awfully hard to do, but I wouldn't know as I've never messed around with them before (apart from texturing)
What's the work that needs to be put into those?
