Reliant Robin's Coronet Mod [BETA]

[stone tapir]

pizdec

[elder spoke]

So when do i get this mod?

We should make it a thing that everyone who makes a mod needs to send it to me😁

[edgy nexus]

There is somthing about that that annoys me but I'm not sure what

[elder spoke]

Hum

Yes

👉🏼👈🏼

[native falcon]

me too lol

[tardy imp]

same

[wheat lodge]

I think it was the voice I did when I read it lmao

[blissful frigate]

ive not been kept up on this or anything, but does he know when this is releasing?

[tranquil prairie]

Still have no clue, But il give a status update soon, Still working on fixing on all the attachment methods atm.

I also just noticed the FAQ is kinda useless when its buried by 1000 + messages lmao, Will pin that so its easier to find.

[blissful frigate]

lmao

[blissful frigate]

k

[gritty wave]

Yeah thats the annoying thing about these threads

same thing with like the first message you send

mine is unfindable rn for me cause its over a thousand messages in my thread

[tranquil prairie]

Yeah its a pain, Working on damage meshes for ruined parts

[edgy nexus]

I love the bent mirror the other side should have smashed glass

[storm elbow]

That bent mirror is so cool, youre doing an amazing job with this mod

[vernal bay]

The level of detail of this car is amazing.

[fair sequoia]

Nicee!

[blissful frigate]

dam... the detail lol, whats the polygon count and stuff?

[trim fractal]

you should make the chrome bits have rust

[tranquil prairie]

A rough car has around 80K for body and interior, Engine plus suspension no idea, Havent had any issues personally yet.

[tranquil prairie]

Already debating this, we will see! 👍

[primal zenith]

man that car looks amazing

[chilly hemlock]

have you thaught ab performance parts

like scooped hood etc

[tranquil prairie]

Yes! It has a scooped hood already, will also have some other bits once the RT vents are done, etc

[primal zenith]

prob the nicest car mod this game will ever see

[tranquil prairie]

Thanks man! But im sure we will get something better from someone else at some point!

[primal zenith]

idk man the detail on this car is amazing

[chilly hemlock]

woohoo

[tranquil prairie]

Thanks for all the support guys, I swear its not far away! ♥️ 😂

[chilly hemlock]

by any chance do you know much ab vis studio

im having issues on it

i havent rlly tried for a few days but now my motivation is running up

[tranquil prairie]

I know a bit about it, Not a crazy amount like fede tho

[chilly hemlock]

fede knows every cm of code

[river mortar]

So I don’t know if am remembering this right, but it’s gonna spawn as an rt and one other one eh?

[blissful frigate]

fedes invented modding this game practicly lmao, without him, modding would be 100x more difficult lmao

[royal cradle]

This car bouta be better then dev quality

[tranquil prairie]

Yes, RT and superbee are two seperate cars, and spawn seperately, same will be true for the wagon and sedans. I've made a spawn controller to prevent flooding the junkyard with coronets. So it shouldn't be too noticeable. I've said it before, and il say it again. I wish car trims and types were handled differently, But this is kinda the best i can do for now

[tranquil prairie]

Yep!

[tranquil prairie]

thanks man!

[river mortar]

Very interesting

So basically how the lad and lad 1 and 2 work eh

[tranquil prairie]

Yeah exactly, Same as the b series trucks too.

[river mortar]

Ah

[torn dawn]

That is so awesome man! You sure are a true perfectionist and I can really tell the hard work you are putting into this mod. Great job and keep it up. one of these days all of us are gonna be cruising around in one of these all thanks to you. 😄

[tranquil prairie]

Wow, Thanks man! It means alot! Loving your series so far btw! Cant wait to see what you all make (and break 😂 )!

[river mortar]

Could I trade a jar of pickles for early access : 3

[tranquil prairie]

Damn that's a tempting offer!

While im here, Quick note for anyone using Remove Starter House : Update should be pushed tonight to make the bin movable, i was unaware it was some indestructible object, So uhh just fixing that now 😅

👍

[blissful frigate]

could i trade 2 jars of pickles for early axcess?

[cerulean granite]

are you going to talk to the devs to get this added to the game ina diff variant?

that be sick

aand just use the real parts as a extra parts mod

[tranquil prairie]

MB seems pretty busy with sail the seas recently, that plus he is already intending to add the e36, I dont think he will wanna add 2 cars. That plus mod cars tend to work differently / are handled differently compared to vanilla cars, Alot of stuff on modded cars is automated or handled by code, and would need to be manually added by MB to make it work in his game, Stuff like Pickup, Paint3DMaterialComps, MainCarProperties, NHW, etc. Its alot of work for something that is already using a very common car platform in the game. So if you ask me, its better if this one stays as a mod, Leaving space and time for other cars with new platforms and suspension to be added.

[river mortar]

Meanwhile in the test channel

[tranquil prairie]

Fully patched in rarity controller, Added vinyl roof to car spawn options 👍

[autumn obsidian]

uhm yeah when tester XD😂

Everytime i see a new picture of the mod the more sick things i see get added

[river mortar]

Ok now hear me out

Would it perhaps be possible to make the vinyl top have the ability to rust and show the roof under the car in some spots

Vinyl tops for the uninitiated are the worst thing you can put on a car moister wise, and have a really bad tendency to rust out the roof of a car completely

[tranquil prairie]

Thanks man! Sooner than yall are prob thinking. Still got some bits to fix regarding restoration stuff. But overall its pretty close to its first private test release (A small release before the main one, to insure that the mod is reliable on different device specs, etc.)

[tranquil prairie]

This a good idea! But annoyingly, The rust material used for rust holes, overlaps every other material on the mesh, So there would be rust holes in the leather, rather than under it, if that makes sense

[summer rose]

Take your time with it and release an awesome product

[turbid creek]

i can test from steam deck

[blissful frigate]

NICE, that looks so good dude. great job

[blissful frigate]

he has said before he test's himself.

[cerulean granite]

id also like to test if i can

been following it since near early days

and i gotta say holy man

its come a long way

i remember when it was just a render of a shell

[misty sentinel]

soooo... will the lightswitch work?

[misty sentinel]

steamdeck + MG = ass

Sauce: i tried it myself..

[turbid creek]

mine works pretty good

put in about 600 hours on mine

[vernal bay]

Really? Don't tell me that please!

[turbid creek]

no don't believe him mine runs fine

i have 647 hours alone on a steam deck

[misty sentinel]

Runs fine? Yes.

Controls? Trash

Not as fluid as on a pc

[autumn obsidian]

Or just skill issue?

[cerulean granite]

That's injection

[turbid creek]

it is skill issue

[tranquil prairie]

Sometimes, I have no clue how these types of bugs exist. Actually feels like the game is just fucking with me at this point. 😂

Also just noticed that doors randomly broke? Nice.

[trim fractal]

waaaat da heeeaaaaallllll

[dry obsidian]

cornbread?

[river mortar]

Clearly it’s the cornbread

[tranquil prairie]

You're right. I must of disturbed it somehow. Il sacrifice 3 LADS tonight as a peace offering.

[vernal bay]

Doing cars is haunted, i recall when i was working on F100 the bugs were so weird.

[river mortar]

Clearly caused by the lack of cornbread

[autumn obsidian]

Have fun👍

[tranquil prairie]

[trim fractal]

cmon you cant say no to this sexy thing

[gritty wave]

would be sick, i kinda love the long rear end and short front, though a lot of cars from that time had it like that i think?

[trim fractal]

i have a model of it but the hood has a scoop so there is no stock hood

[gritty wave]

I'd just cover it with the fill thing

[trim fractal]

fill?

whart

this is the hood

[gritty wave]

hm can you send me the model i might be able to do something at least?

[trim fractal]

ok

[tranquil prairie]

I wont promise any other years atm, Its alot of work, Making or modifying the model, Plus i don't really want to be working on this mod forever, But i wont entirely deny it, But Don't expect anything. Will see with time after full release about other years.

[tranquil prairie]

lmao

[tranquil prairie]

What in the bluetooth hinges.

Ah local position is being shifted, odd.

[gritty wave]

ze bluetooth device haz connected

[tranquil prairie]

Real lol!

[gritty wave]

stuff seems to be breaking and changing every day haha, you sure theres no racoons stealing your code?

or is raccons just bananas thing haha

[tranquil prairie]

Typical day for coronet mod ngl 😂 But maybe you're right. Maybe they've found my code... That or my code is just that disorganised and unholy (totally not the second one)

[gritty wave]

😆

[blissful frigate]

i know whats wrong with it, it aint got no gaaaas init!

[tranquil prairie]

Damn you're right! Such a silly mistake!

[trim fractal]

za boutof divis ais redy to pealr

[cerulean granite]

Ima be real how do these bugs even happen when I swore it was fine before XD

When you showed it

[tranquil prairie]

Its had an issue for a while were crash damage wouldn't process when hitting a door or hood etc. Fixed it by adding a hinge component, But the hinge comp seems to be offseting something on spawn. On the bright side, It crashes well now, Just gotta figure out how to force the doors to 0,0,0

[cerulean granite]

let me know when i can beta test it k

ill make a save just to test it in all scenerios

ima take it on rally

race

and drag

and ill also test all diff speed crashes

junk/shop

and part removal

[tranquil prairie]

Will do!

[trim fractal]

been excited for this car for a long time

[tranquil prairie]

Glad to hear it! again sorry for the wait everyone, I know its been a while. Doing as much as I can when I can.

[wheat lodge]

Ple gib corneret

[tranquil prairie]

Sorry, Couldn't catch one. Its hard to catch them in the wild. Maybe i will get lucky next time

[primal zenith]

that seems normal 😅

thought ye was making a car not a airplane? lol

[tranquil prairie]

So did I 😂

Will figure it out at some point

[vernal bay]

Good to see someone finally working on my plane suggestion!

[blissful frigate]

bro asked so calmly 💀 bro does not know anything about modding lmao.

[turbid creek]

i was thinking after im done with the s10 i would try and mod a semi in

[autumn obsidian]

Eh if you havent tried setting urself into it its easier said than done,which looks like the case wiyh this person

[blissful frigate]

that would be sick.

[blissful frigate]

i do alot of modding so ik its alot eisier said than done

[gritty wave]

quite the suggestion when the person adds "and more please." to the end haha

[autumn obsidian]

Tried this shit myself cant wrap mu head around it really

[blissful frigate]

current project

[blissful frigate]

it just takes alot of time

[autumn obsidian]

And certinaly dont got the time to do it

Or just lazy

😂

[blissful frigate]

it takes time and paitience

[blissful frigate]

lol

i got a few tutorial stuff on my discord server about a few things if you need help with stuff.

plan on adding more stuff to it.

[autumn obsidian]

I might have another go during summer tho because why the fuck not

[blissful frigate]

this is a really easy game to mod honestly so i would

[autumn obsidian]

Idk ill see if I feel like it but I think I fucked up some stuff when installing aswell so need to look at that😂

But at the same time I need to find enjoyment with the game again aswell

[blissful frigate]

anyways, this is the coronet chat, and i need to go get a shower anyways. if you need help with anything modding related theres alot of people that accept dms, like me, fedes, lars, and robin, ect.

[blissful frigate]

lol

[autumn obsidian]

Dont ask how

Magic

[blissful frigate]

modding brings alot of enjoyment to the game honestly, makes the game fun again since you get to do whatever you want with stuff

but, goodbye

[autumn obsidian]

[tranquil prairie]

Yep! Im planning modelling them as soon as possible, I might of lost the RT blend file 😂 (Not full car, Just some unique parts so not a big issue)

[wheat lodge]

😮

It look good

[gritty wave]

DAMN! Thats good lookin'

Also! Is there any fender chrome pieces?

[tranquil prairie]

Thanks! Not atm, Still figuring out right sizes to prevent clipping, That and i might remodel the rear fenders at some point anyway

[storm elbow]

Holy that looks amazing man

Will all the lights work?

[tranquil prairie]

Thanks man! Yep!

[storm elbow]

Thats awesome, I cant wait

[primal zenith]

cant wait for this car!

[tranquil prairie]

Nearly finished it, Just gotta model the internal bits for the light housing.

[storm elbow]

Sweet

[gritty wave]

man i love that police light thing

its good lookin, and well of course the rear lights there!

[edgy nexus]

Is that police parts I spy

[tranquil prairie]

Yes! I modelled them a while ago, Just been lazy with adding them. That and i need to model a little roof rack for them.

[primal zenith]

love it

[trim fractal]

better be for the 4 door

[tranquil prairie]

Will work for both 👍

Hell put it on a wagon if you really want.

[trim fractal]

WAGON CORONET!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!!?!?

[tranquil prairie]

I confirmed it a while ago, i should really pin it lmao

[trim fractal]

YEHqHahAHHY

[trim fractal]

this will be the best mod this game has ever seen

[tranquil prairie]

Thanks! Hoping more mods will do multiple models etc. Its nice to have multiple options.

[trim fractal]

u should do mopar steelies

[tranquil prairie]

Tried to model them a while ago. Haven't really touched them for a while. Il revisit them when 4dr development has progressed further.

atm my main goal is getting coupe mostly done for beta

[trim fractal]

i have a model

no hubcap though

[tranquil prairie]

Its all good, I find it fun to figure that sort of shapes and stuff out. They will exist at some point for sure.

[edgy nexus]

i cannot wait to recreate my superbee

[trim fractal]

u have a superbee?

[edgy nexus]

i will when im 21 my dads gonna give it to me

[trim fractal]

oh nice

i wish i grew up more in the countrey

[tranquil prairie]

Im too lazy to change the thumbnail atm lol

Nah we just name it the dodge cornbread

Then mb can add it to the game

Can’t have dodge

[dry obsidian]

[blissful frigate]

https://tenor.com/view/hh-whta-uout-gif-22206643 waiting patiently.

[tranquil prairie]

Just noticed i never gave another update after modelling the rear lmao. Both car variants are finally up-to-date and stable. Added some glass, Added 2nd bumper variant, Added new rear panel with new lights. Tackling Start-Options next.

[trim fractal]

i cant wait

[waxen blade]

me too

[gritty wave]

Awesome!

[cunning parcel]

[jagged cave]

Will it spawn with the 6 pack?

[storm elbow]

Thats sweet man, I cant wait to get my hands on it

[tranquil prairie]

Yep!

[blissful frigate]

will the chrome pieces be paintable and chromable or just chrome by default?

[blissful frigate]

example these pieces on the front around headlights and grille

[trim fractal]

iirc they are loop bumpers or something weird

[primal zenith]

beautiful cars

[left pasture]

Can u build one in a lime green and show me

[gritty wave]

xD

[trim fractal]

[kind narwhal]

Yeah I'd love if there was a paintable variant

At least until Fede's Material Master releases

[blissful frigate]

well he can easily change it to be paintable and then chrome at the cvhroming station, ive done it before, its just if he is willing to, alrady has, or doesnt want to.

[tranquil prairie]

Sure I can do paintable versions, won't be for a while though, Il have to remap the bumpers and fix the seams for the meshes.

[tranquil prairie]

Lmao!

[gritty wave]

As far as customisation goes do you have any future plans for the mod?

[tranquil prairie]

Quite a few! The plan is to release with only a few extra parts (To make sure i can release to beta as soon as possible.) Then throughout Beta, Customization options will expand, Im thinking, Roll cages, Paintable versions of most parts, Drag parts, etc. And ofc any part suggestions are welcomed! Im also toying with the idea of releasing the 3d model and transparent names on full release, so if other modders wanna make parts, they can. (Big IF though.)

[gritty wave]

Oh yeah that would be pretty sick if other modders could do their own parts

But only parts im thinking off would be like cut fenders or somethin'

[tranquil prairie]

Infact, i just thought of something hella goofy. Il show it later.

[blissful frigate]

i was actually gonna decompile your mod when it released to add parts so that would make it 10 million times easier than it would have been lol, but instead of paintable versions of most parts, you should just make the parts you want paintable be paintable by default, then have them chrome at the chroming station.

[tranquil prairie]

Not too sure what you mean by that? Wouldn't make sense for the car to spawn with paintable bumpers.

Plus painting setup requires extra components too.

So it makes more sense for them to be seperate.

atleast in my mind, I might of mis-understood what you said.

[blissful frigate]

that is fair, didnt think of that. also, it might be diffrent for standalone cars but for normal parts it doesnt require extra components. but i see what you mean now.

[tranquil prairie]

Tbf those comps are setup by utils anyway. there around 5 iirc . But yeah standalone cars spawn by filling out transparents with default part prefabs (CarProps and Part info do some setup stuff by the actual part prefab itself stays mostly the same.) But yeah, Honestly i've never heard of anyone doing that for a normal part, But damn fair enough if you managed to get that to work

Damn it doesn't fit. It doesn't fit. It doesn't fit. 😂

[blissful frigate]

also, ive never seen any other mod made by you, do you have other mods?

[dry obsidian]

Is that a b200 cornbread

[blissful frigate]

that is infact a b200 cornbread

[blissful frigate]

somebody is prob gonna make that if you do release the blend file for it lol

[dry obsidian]

Wut

[tranquil prairie]

Not really. I did game development for a bit in college, And did a small 2d game prototype. But this is my first game i've made mods for

[dry obsidian]

This needs to be done put a body lift on it then make it redneck

[tranquil prairie]

Prob lmao, Thats a them problem now 😂

[blissful frigate]

ah that explains it.

[upper orchid]

i did 2d game for school project in construct 2 XD

just because it was simplest thing to do i found XD

[tranquil prairie]

Aye! Mine was in construct 3 lmao (i was terrible at art)

Was a really nice engine tbh, The visual scripting was not that bad. Just wish it wasn't so expensive to use.

[blissful frigate]

S O O N (i hope)

will be doing this in my garage

[tranquil prairie]

Remodelling doors cards atm. 50% more efficent than the originals. That plus they should look better when taking damage, etc. Didn't really wanna do it. But the terrible mesh performance and loops forced my hand. Gonna be doing this for a little while. Firewall, Doors, And Superbee rear panel are all on my hitlist atm. I would do this after release. But im 90% it will cause mesh corruption with damaged old parts. So kinda no option but to do it before its public.

So if yall dont hear from me for a bit, Thats what im doing 😂

[blissful frigate]

take your time bro, as long as it looks good in the end, its worth the wait. as long as it comes out before gta 6 or my winter car. looks great so far though.

[dry obsidian]

ong pls come out before MWC or gta 6

thas all i want

[blissful frigate]

Fr

If it does then maybe our great great grandchildren can use it 😉

[torn dawn]

Amazing work man, keep at it, we are all waiting for you to deliver a true masterpiece. No rush at all!

[dry obsidian]

[blissful frigate]

your not doing the 69 anymore? 😦

[tranquil prairie]

I don't think I have enough energy to do another year after this one. At this point, I just wanna get the damn thing done 😂

Its alot of work for 1 person. Really for a mod that would cover multiple years and varients. You would need either pre-complete models, Or multiple people who specialize in different sectors (Ie on person who would solely model, and another who would solely deal with the code, etc.)

[blissful frigate]

alright yea that makes sense. but just letting you know, if you dont, i will whenever this releases i am XD

[tranquil prairie]

Fair enough 😂

[storm elbow]

Goodluck man

[eternal kite]

the diff betwine 69 and 70 is front end and hood and and rear end they have the same body

[tranquil prairie]

Yes, But that still involves modelling new front end, Rear panel, Rear fenders, Interior, etc. That plus it would have to connect with parts that were designed with edge loops that follow the 70's edge flow.

For stuff like damage to work smoothly.

[median pilot]

Im very excited to see it can't wait

[tranquil prairie]

Glad to hear man! I'm excited to see you all come up with some cool car designs!

[tranquil prairie]

New prototype door. Seems to already be handling crash damage a bit better.

Chad door for referance, i'd say they are about equal for clipping.

[median pilot]

It's gonna be sweet 🔥

[blissful frigate]

same xd

[wheat lodge]

It looks so good bro

[trim fractal]

holy shit thats a long link

[edgy nexus]

i know there will be the rt and a super bee but what about a standard coronet base trim with a slant 6

[trim fractal]

Maybe with 4 door

Robin will there be a center console

[blissful frigate]

he said at some point he wanted to do a 4 door, idk if he still plans it as he cut out the 69 coronet as he didnt want to model it, witch a 4 door would need alot of new models aswell

i think it was him at least, may have been somebody else

[trim fractal]

I thought he had a 4 door model

[blissful frigate]

idk at this point lol

.

he does

[tranquil prairie]

4 Door is just modified meshes from the 2dr, Does not really need any references or blueprints to make parts for, I can just modify what's there, Hence why the 4dr will still be made. Whereas the 69 has a totally different front end, rear end, etc. that i would have to make from scratch. Which means finding new blueprints, Scaling them to match the current coronet scale, spend weeks modelling all the bits, etc.

Ultimately its a lot of hassle for a mod that is ultimately a free spare time project I do. I already dedicate pretty much all of my free time to it. And I just don't think I have enough left in me to do a whole new year. And if I did, It would be probably the last time i make a mod for the game thats for sure 😂 I've been working on coronet for over 9 months. And as I'm sure you can understand, I just wanna finish it now. And move onto a different project that isn't a b-body Mopar. But 4 door and wagon will still continue ahead as planned, So don't worry. Hope that clarifies it a bit.

[trim fractal]

Gugugguhb

[blissful frigate]

Yea understandable

[tranquil prairie]

Whoops missed this, Yes. I still gotta finish it though, also gotta find a way to prevent the car spawning with a bench seat and console. Thinking of using 2 different floor parts for that stuff.

[blissful frigate]

will there be a soft top?

if so you should make it so it folds down

[trim fractal]

That would be hard I’m assuming

[blissful frigate]

its not

it shouldnt be at least

imma try it on my nova

[trim fractal]

[blissful frigate]

as theres a script that lets a mesh change into a diffrent one when clicked (used on the trailor tops)

[trim fractal]

Like shifterS?

[blissful frigate]

simular but not exactly

its jsut called "switch"

[tranquil prairie]

We will see, I wanna avoid making convertable a seperate car (Ideally it acts like the wolf.) But a soft top would require 2 parts, (atleast with how i would wanna do it). And start options only replaces one. So we will see As there will already be around 4 cars. Convertible versions of the RT and superbee would take it up to 6. And i dont wanna push my luck with the mod loading times. Also the script you mention just changes rotation and position for a real soft-top (that doesn't snap between 2 modes) you would most likely need to use mesh deformation as well.

[blissful frigate]

im pretty sure it cahnges mesh as under the com,p options

it had "mesh 1"

and ":mesh 2"

or soemthing like that and you selct a mesh

[tranquil prairie]

Shifters are just different meshes, They are changed by carprops.

[blissful frigate]

alogn wtih taht on fedes f100 mod he uses it and the wya he does wouldnt be possible if it works like you said.

[blissful frigate]

also it wouldnt really need to have soft top versions spawn, just parts but its your mod so i have no control over what you do and dont do.

[blissful frigate]

and you would need to use a form of mesh deformation to make a real soft top, but its still cool to at least work. either way as said before, its not my mod to make desndunas on

bro's boutta destroy me with a entire pharagraph on why im wrong T-T

[tranquil prairie]

Switch changes what it does depending on what you're using it for, For example. For window rollers. I just activates a function in the window winder itself. It can changes meshes, However from what i can see. Only if CarProps.Throttle is ticked. But from what i can see, Its mostly activating other functions in other scripts based on what part is using it. though i am just skimming it. personally, Im prob just gonna make a custom mono for it that handles all this, It will most likely be faster anyway, as it doesn't have to do a ton of checks at startup. The way the current ramp truck works is by using the windowlift comp. But that only changes rotation. Switch isn't used here (i assume its only use for specific game events or something). Issue is if you use this comp with smooth rotation (Like windows) Your soft-top is gonna clip through the entire car, and possible the floor. If that makes sense. So really doing a smooth rotating soft-top is not possible atm. A simple mesh change one is 100% possible though, And prob the method i'l go with personally. But i am 100% onboard with the idea of a interactive soft-top. On the car spawning thing, I agree, But i also personally prefer cars to spawn with as many options as possible (In my mind, You have cargen, and it would be waste to not fully use it) But thats just my view ofc.

[tranquil prairie]

Lmao, Not really. Im just a REALLY slow typer 😂

[blissful frigate]

ive noticed but i wasnt wrong. i have not read it all yet though

[tranquil prairie]

Not saying you're wrong, Just more clarifying how its more likely gonna be done (For me atleast, You may decide to go a different root)

TLDR : Switch mesh roof : Yes, Scroll based / Rotating roof : Cursed clipping

[blissful frigate]

yea what im gonna try and dpo is just have it click and become a diff mesh, but im not doing that until the cars front suspension is mostly set up.

[tranquil prairie]

Yeah, I thought you meant like a rotating moving roof. But a diff mesh roof is 100% possible and a cool idea!

[blissful frigate]

nope, but thats why i wanted to try it, its a cool idea and i realised the game already uses it on the trailortops

[tranquil prairie]

Yeah, Its great for big parts too

Like carpets etc.

Because you just make a rolled up mesh to make them easier to store, etc.

[blissful frigate]

thats also a cool idea but the only issue would be still being able to move it

witch is what i realise not is a issue

unless you can make it only ork whena certain spot is clicked

[blissful frigate]

what are your plans for when the coronet is done, im assuming your taking a break, you got plans for another car in future or once this done you done with cars xd?

[blissful frigate]

forgot to ping, @tranquil prairie

[storm elbow]

Pretty sure he said once he released it he is going to take a small break

[tranquil prairie]

Yep! Taking a 3 - 5 week break prob. I wont be doing that until its stable though. (There will be a small EA group to test BETA before release, So hopefully it should release with no major bugs.) Well. I dont know for the second one. I have been working on another secret project in the background. Just don't know if its worth the possible year of free-time going into full development 😂

[blissful frigate]

i must know

wutisit

[blissful frigate]

lemme guess, fedes?

[tranquil prairie]

is super secret car (Translation : "I don't wanna announce because then il be forced to do it")'

[tranquil prairie]

wdym? Using utils EA? yes.

[blissful frigate]

man i gotta become one of those mind readers, i knew it lol

[blissful frigate]

fair enough lol

[tranquil prairie]

Its also a HUGE pain to find documentation for, So that kind of brings down the probability of it seeing daylight.

[blissful frigate]

btw hows that interior remodel / model update thing?

[blissful frigate]

i need to know. i wont tell anybody, or expect it to be finished. for all ik it could be something i dont like. i just gotta know, ill give my pc, house, life savings, and my left leg for it (translation: a patato, a pillow fort, few nickels, left leg)

[tranquil prairie]

Finished and added all new interior stuff, Just firewall. Also updating Roof and headliner to use trigger (Turns out my method does not work on new parts for some reason.) Also hunting down a wired rust bug, Where the car has 1 star with 0 rust when restoring.

[tranquil prairie]

Damn 😂

[blissful frigate]

add my right leg, all i do is sit at pc all day, so not needed.

[blissful frigate]

ah, nice

[edgy nexus]

may we know the brand or country of origin if it is another car

[tranquil prairie]

space

[edgy nexus]

cool sputnik for mg

[tranquil prairie]

Alright fine, its from earth. There.

Should be a pretty easy guess now

[dry obsidian]

cornbread

[edgy nexus]

a reliant robin?

[autumn obsidian]

He started making this ong

[blissful frigate]

i started making what

[autumn obsidian]

Not u

Would be funny af if it was true

[blissful frigate]

why ping me then

[autumn obsidian]

You must know so why not xd

[blissful frigate]

ah

[autumn obsidian]

Even tho this is most likely really far from what he is actually doing😂

[trim fractal]

Cornbreb

[tranquil prairie]

Coliders seem to still be a little scuffed, I have no clue which one is causing this screwdriver to float, Nothing crazy to report. But I added some fender protectors and also fixed some bugs with damaged colliders.

[tacit hill]

cool

[dry obsidian]

Are those dark spots on the fender them leaning pad things?

[tranquil prairie]

Yep, still gotta make a texture for them

[edgy nexus]

Why not make em paintable so we can design our own texture

[blissful frigate]

i think he should make a paintable version of it, but have a normal one witha texture so it spawns with a textured version

same way that the chrome parts he wants to do

he wants to have paintable versions of the chrome parts, but he isnt gonna have the normal ones be paintable as it wouldnt make sense for them to spawn without chrome

[median pilot]

U should put a Snap-on logo on them

[dry obsidian]

Oh sick

[upper orchid]

after release of material master i dont think it will be needed to make paintables

[blissful frigate]

well yea but from what im seeing MM only lets you change the color of anything, not make anything paintable. i may be wrong tho

[upper orchid]

well you dont really need to paint grill or mirror for example

[blissful frigate]

yea huh

me need

[upper orchid]

and it also makes possible to paint some things - it says it not works sometimes

there is checkbox for it

[blissful frigate]

some things

what if i want a coronet that looks like grass?

i need decals.

and you cant decal chrome parts

[vernal bay]

if it has proper UV map it can be made paintable

[blissful frigate]

well he better make everything have uv maps lol

[dry obsidian]

He’s dead…

[edgy nexus]

woah

thats cool

[tardy imp]

nice

[blissful frigate]

Nice

[tranquil prairie]

Got a question for those who know alot About mopar b-bodys, Did the rear windows roll down manually, Or were they electric? cannot find a single image with a window roller in the back of a 70 coro hard-top. Were they electric in the back by standard?

[trim fractal]

I thought standard it was all rollers

[tranquil prairie]

Thats what i thought, But in that case, wheres the rear roller. I dont see any And im 90% sure the back windows do go down on a hard top, The fronts do. But i cannot see anything on the rears.

okay wow nvm

That image does have one

WOW thats is close to the door. Jeez alright, 😂 Il get to work adding in those, Fronts are done, Just rears to do now.

[jagged cave]

Wow man this thing is looking great

Can't wait for it to come out

[tranquil prairie]

Thanks man! Still gotta do the correct materials for winders, Been having alot of fun taking screenshots with fedes camera mod, Takes some really nice photos, isn't too far away now! Most parts are here for both stock versions, its mostly just cleaning up, Getting catalog ready, Fixing prices, etc

[jagged cave]

I love how detailed it looks, do you have any plans of more cars in the future?

[tranquil prairie]

After coronet? not sure. Takes alot of time to do these mods (at least if im modelling them as-well). And i do miss having some free time lol! Wont probably be doing another one for a long while. Maybe one day though if something catches my eye

[jagged cave]

Yeah man that's understandable, 1000% Will be downloading all of your future cars, Pretty much looks like it will be better than vanilla cars 😂

[tranquil prairie]

Ah thanks man! Appericate that alot. I really cannot wait to see what people make with it. Its part of the motivation to finish it!

[jagged cave]

I already got things in mind!

[eternal kite]

some hade manual some have electrick windows but the moust of them manual

[edgy nexus]

on post cars they did not

on hard tops it was a manual rolldown

the post cars had a manual popout window like the rear quarter windows on an extended cab truck

[trim fractal]

You should do carpet that comes in the normal black carpet texture and interior colors

[storm elbow]

This mod is coming along so well, I cannot wait until release! Keep up the amazing work

[tranquil prairie]

Will look into, But i dont think thats possible without adding patches. Because each interior color is a different unique material. The way i get the colors without texture is actually pretty scuffed, (Texel size of 1xp lmao), But il look into!

[tranquil prairie]

Thanks man!

[tranquil prairie]

Added fender trim (Finally 😂) Also remodelled the edges of the fender cut-outs to smoothen the model quality.

[storm elbow]

Coming along really good, keep it up

[tranquil prairie]

Thanks! Doing superbee rear rn. Then that should be it for the remodelling. Im thinking theres a good chance that it releases to beta towards the end of the next month latest. Will depend on what the early testing team find before hand. Hopefully nothing serious though.

[storm elbow]

That's sweet

Goodluck man

[devout bay]

Oh my

[blissful frigate]

damn that looks so good

[blissful frigate]

https://tenor.com/view/kermit-frog-panic-frantic-yay-gif-16814992

🤞

[gritty wave]

Awesome! Im exited to see more then!

[gritty wave]

Awesome! i love a bit of fender chrome hehe, And that hood man i love it

[blissful frigate]

the next few months are going to be very difficult for me xd i could barely make it through this week knowing mat master was gonna release 😂

[gritty wave]

yeah hahaha

[blissful frigate]

will get a smooth, flat hood?

[tranquil prairie]

Already exists, rt scoops are detachable 👍

[river mortar]

Can I please wrap that shit around a tree :3

[tranquil prairie]

As God intended 😄

[blissful frigate]

Yay. (See, I didn’t ping this time :D)

[rugged reef]

this is sick af

[chilly hemlock]

Can't wait for the release

[gritty wave]

Me too its so good looking!

[blissful frigate]

i ~~cant ~~ wont wait. i am robbin robin's his pc and steal it

[rugged reef]

i already am robbin robins pc

LOL

[turbid creek]

will it be private or public

[tranquil prairie]

public on beta on nexus. Private in alpha (Standalone cars require a little more thought when releasing, Because the last thing you wanna do is corrupt someone's car because you missed a critical thing before releasing the mod)

[turbid creek]

ok

[gritty wave]

That would be pain yeah haha, Id feel pretty damn bad if one of my mods did that, which well, im scared of sometimes, i mean really it wouldnt happen its just regular parts haha

[tranquil prairie]

Yeah it can be, Typically its the junkyard cars that hurt the most from it. Alot of corruption is caused because the model gets changed (Which happens pretty often when you're making them) and the original list of vertices gets corrupted for damage. It can be fixed by just buying new parts. But If someone got a car with unique damage, or cannot afford to, its just a pain for them. (This is a really old example)

[gritty wave]

Oh god yeah haha

[tranquil prairie]

Remodelled Superbee rear-end to match the quality of the RT version. It actually looks like a superbee rear end now 😂

[blissful frigate]

damn

that looks nice

[tranquil prairie]

Thanks! It really needed it. Old one was beyond terrible, This is also ironically less tris than the original too.

[blissful frigate]

also, are their images in catalog btw? meant to ask a while back but forgot xd

[blissful frigate]

xd

[tranquil prairie]

I do have them generated (Which is a mod utils feature btw incase you need to add any thumbnails in the future) I just need to add them all to their part infos. I still gotta rework all the part names and prices atm. Its a bit of a mess.

[blissful frigate]

ah

[tranquil prairie]

Why is wiper an engine part lmao Maybe the catalog handler has a few bugs 😂

[blissful frigate]

misread that xd

[tranquil prairie]

Gas tank too. Wired.

Eh its a feature in my mind now

[blissful frigate]

yea mb gotta get this stuff streight xd

[tranquil prairie]

Tbf i can just blacklist the gas tank from the catalog loop anyway. Seeing as coro uses its own anyway.

[blissful frigate]

why does your coronet do like 500 things xd

using that thing your prob lucky if the game fully opens in a single day xd

[tranquil prairie]

It was kinda needed, Because i modelled the rear trunk floor wrong for chad tank 😂

The floor sloops up (Which is what happens to the rl version i think too anyway) But it means i needed to make a custom gas tank model

[blissful frigate]

mmm

[tranquil prairie]

Lol, Honestly i think its actually pretty fast. Atleast with loading and managing parts. I need to do a test at some point with just one mod installed to see though. I dunno maybe 1010338 is terrible from computers. Im not that smart to know lol

either that or maybe the time keeping thing is broken i know my custom log timestamps are lol

[primal zenith]

release getting close

[blissful frigate]

HE SAID HOPEFULLY BY END OF NEXT MONTH

sorry caos

[primal zenith]

oh heck yea

[torn dawn]

I think it's a bug or it is concidered engine bay parts too...

[tardy imp]

nice

[tacit hill]

Yippee

[turbid creek]

how are you planning on doing beta tests?

[vernal bay]

Beta will be on Nexus, there will be a very short time (1 week if not mistaken) of Early Access only

Btw - I want to be on that EA, will destroy your hopes of having a stable mod 😂

[gritty wave]

Hahaha think everyone wants a spot on that list xd, But yeah i feel you could tear the mod up with the funky stuff your able to do hahaha

But damn yeah sounds to not be to long that’s awesome

[tranquil prairie]

Pretty much lol! Week if everything is fine (It differently wont be) To a few weeks, 3 at most though I would imagine. I've actually spent the past week just restoring cars to weed out any major bugs. So hopefully it will be a quick window. Welds went funny for a bit (The car disassembled like a piece of flatpack Ikea furniture if you cut on particular weld 😂 ) But that was the only major one i've found so far.

[rugged reef]

wym 1 week

[tranquil prairie]

Pov : Me after spending months delaying releases to ensure the mod is a stable as possible on release just to be thwarted by mod utils EA

https://tenor.com/view/cry-guy-listening-to-music-crying-music-music-sad-gif-1436056687197982910

[tranquil prairie]

There will be a small window were the mod will be opened to a few more users before public release. Just to insure there's no major bugs / gameplay ruining issues on public release.

if im lucky, and theres no big bugs, it will be like a week

(As for when this slot will open up, Not for a little bit. I still gotta fix all the pricing and catalog stuff)

[rugged reef]

i want to be on the list so bad lol hopefully i findthe 1 week release

[blissful frigate]

fr. i am not trustable enough though lol

[gritty wave]

Hahaha

[vernal bay]

Ahh F100 development vibres

Nice car

takes out window and whole car dissasembles

[tranquil prairie]

Lmao

[blissful frigate]

speaking of f100, ever going to fix it pulling even with perfect suspension?

[tranquil prairie]

Its that fun moment when you notice like 20 of your welds have the same othername var, Because you forgot to change them (My case atleast)

[blissful frigate]

ah yes, forgetting to change othername on welds is a pretty annoying thing, especially if its the only issue so oy uogtta do a entire new assetbundle build and stuff to fix that small mistake

when you forget to add your part to the assetbundle its even more annoying though

[vernal bay]

Yeah is better to be generic

[vernal bay]

that isnt a bug

and

need to work on f350 update

so can release on nexus

the lates tupdate

[blissful frigate]

intentional?

[tranquil prairie]

Joys of mod development

[tranquil prairie]

Ah you haven't updated f350 yet? I forgot about that addon for it.

[blissful frigate]

yes. im on a mini vacation rn so im very thankfull of that xd

[tranquil prairie]

lol

[blissful frigate]

how long since you last took a break from mod developing?

[tranquil prairie]

Cant remember. I took a small 1 week break a few months ago.

[blissful frigate]

you need break.

but not now

after coronet releases 🙂

[tranquil prairie]

Pretty much my plan lol, I intend to release beta and then immediately die for a month 😂

[blissful frigate]

xd

[tranquil prairie]

provided theres no major issues ofc

[blissful frigate]

dam

idk how long i can wait.

already impatient

[edgy nexus]

f-bomb beautiful

[blissful frigate]

i think if i had to wait to much i might commit a crime.

[edgy nexus]

gas tank is always in engines

[tranquil prairie]

Thanks man!

[tranquil prairie]

ah good to know, Boom feature then

[tranquil prairie]

I wouldn't recommend doing that, then if you go to jail, You cannot play MG.

[blissful frigate]

your right

that means more waiting 😦

ALOT more waiting 😦

[edgy nexus]

also the wiper connects to a wiper motor so maybe kinda engine parts

[blissful frigate]

actually

i already got de plan

breakout

[edgy nexus]

why not just not get caught in the first place

[blissful frigate]

you right

[tranquil prairie]

damn true

[blissful frigate]

if i kill all the police

nobody to arrest me 🙂

[tranquil prairie]

Seems like a reasonable plan for one person 😂

[blissful frigate]

yes

well

[edgy nexus]

thats one way of avoiding jail

[blissful frigate]

i hold you, fedes, dopiz, tumpy, and anybody else i get hostage and you help.

[dry obsidian]

then the purge will happen

[blissful frigate]

not if i kill everybody first

[dry obsidian]

you can try aint that like 8billion ppl

[blissful frigate]

and, if i hold fedes costage, i get camera mod and scrapyard, and if i hold robin hostage i get coronet

[blissful frigate]

i not try, i jus do

[dry obsidian]

you have a problem

[gritty wave]

Holding me hostage?! nooo!

[blissful frigate]

nuh uh

[blissful frigate]

yes.

you help

[tranquil prairie]

I mean its a 4 v 1, I think we have a chance

[blissful frigate]

NO

[edgy nexus]

we could get early access to the tanker

[blissful frigate]

NO

BAD

[blissful frigate]

we could.

[gritty wave]

[blissful frigate]

its a 4v2

[tranquil prairie]

Havent been the most up to date on the coronet, but its lookin mighty juicy.

[rugged reef]

fr

[tranquil prairie]

Thanks! Pretty much.

Though i just remembered i gotta figure out how to do interior shop stuff. Hmm

[blissful frigate]

look how its done in game, then, ask fedes if dont work

[finite dagger]

nice

[tranquil prairie]

Well, In game MB just places them. 😂 But for mods you gotta wait for new map to load. Only real reference mod have to go off is old F100. Im sure il figure it out at some point.

[blissful frigate]

oh

[tranquil prairie]

I think i broke something..

[blissful frigate]

XD

[gritty wave]

What are you talking about thats totaly normal!

[trim fractal]

If you do do it u should make it rolled up some sort of way (kinda like the fuel line where it is rolled up then once mounted it’s in place)

Also cabrio?

[edgy nexus]

the material master mod should allow that

[blissful frigate]

We need this yes

Will there be a soft top btw?

[wheat lodge]

We need cabrio and a cloth top that can be taken off with pry tool

[blissful frigate]

Yea

[edgy nexus]

donut mode

[tranquil prairie]

Yeah, prob not on initial beta release though.

[gritty wave]

Damn thats nice!

[edgy nexus]

neat

[blissful frigate]

OOOOO i like that

[tranquil prairie]

Thanks! Turns out adding a new interior shop is a longer process than I thought 😂

[blissful frigate]

xd

[tacit hill]

woah

[rugged reef]

why not just add it to catalog like the other ingame cars?

[tranquil prairie]

You can only buy one color from the catalog.

And it makes less sense workflow wise to make 8 part prefabs for each interior part just so you can buy all 8 in the catalog, if that makes sense.

Its the same for other ingame cars. They only come with black interior parts.

from the catalog atleast.

[rugged reef]

you could always put it in the original interior shop?

or is there no room? ive never been there lpol

[tranquil prairie]

No room, that plus it could conflict with other mods in the future, I got it working now though so it's all good.

[rugged reef]

oh nice

[blissful frigate]

ok 👍

cant wait.

[rugged reef]

me either lol

[blissful frigate]

thats gonna look so good in my garage, next ot the other cars ive wrapped around tree's :D

[gritty wave]

Yeah! Can’t wait to throw some decals on one too hehe, I got some liveries i wanna do

[rough compass]

so uhhhh, will there be extra space in there? imma need to put the nova parts somewhere once i get there ._.

[trim fractal]

Cat is log

[river mortar]

Not saying anything bad but if this was banana this would have taken at least 2 years, 2 models and still not even be close to finished

[edgy nexus]

banana was making a super bee

and a 70 roadrunner

[river mortar]

Not the point

Am talking about the fact the charger has been in the works for fucking 2 years at this point and isn’t even close to done

[edgy nexus]

i was just saying that the hypothetical wasnt even a hypothetical

also did you know the charger is being fully reworked

[river mortar]

Yes I know the old model was fine

[edgy nexus]

i need to make another redneck ute

[river mortar]

Fuck the first version was actually close to being released

[edgy nexus]

it was wrong in alot of ways im kinda glad its reworked

[river mortar]

It was also more functional then the current one

The current one you can’t even sit in it properly

[blissful frigate]

the models been remade for the coronet like 3 times lol

[misty sentinel]

71 satellite is a better vers of the road running technically.

[blissful frigate]

damn thats a nice background.

[stone tapir]

two ModUtils ?

[blissful frigate]

i got the old ui still

[stone tapir]

left mods right mods

[stone tapir]

Okay, I'm not even going to ask how you did it.

[blissful frigate]

its just a file

[stone tapir]

!!ModUI.dll ?

[blissful frigate]

yea

[stone tapir]

It doesn't work for me.

[tranquil prairie]

Oh nice! I haven't been on MG today, so i had no idea 😂

[tranquil prairie]

Make sure you enable the old Mod UI in the mod utils options. Or utils will automatically hide it, even if you have the !!ModUI dll

[stone tapir]

Okay, I'll check it out right now

[blissful frigate]

games gotta shove it in my face though lol

[blissful frigate]

i just updated and didnt remove the old ui and it worked

[blissful frigate]

yea, its such a beautyfull car 😍

[pure rivet]

is it out?

[tacit hill]

nope

[blissful frigate]

not yet. :(

[pure rivet]

how does farmer have it

[blissful frigate]

wait

farmer has it?

[pure rivet]

ye

[blissful frigate]

proof

[pure rivet]

.

[blissful frigate]

thats not his photo

[pure rivet]

oh

[edgy nexus]

i just copied a photo there for someone else

[edgy nexus]

i dont have the mod but i do have a real 70 superbee

[blissful frigate]

lucky lol

[turbid creek]

@tranquil prairie how do you plan on doing the test stage for the mod

[eternal kite]

i newer hade a super bee 70 but a normal coronet 70 and one 69 coronet

[tranquil prairie]

Initial testing will be a small group of 15 to 20 at most, If no issues are found, Il set and announce a release date (Gives me time to add anything else i want to for release)

Really only 2 things are preventing me from stepping it up to initial testing, 1 Start options (the thing that lets cars spawn with 4, 5 speed gearboxes, etc.) and the pricing. That's pretty much it though from what i can recall off my head.

[gritty wave]

Oh damn doesnt sound like that much, though well i dont know enough about it so i shouldnt say much haha

[blissful frigate]

when do you expect that to start? i will be begging that no big issues will be found so i can finaly, after like 4 months of waiting, drive this car 😂

cant imagine how impatient i would be rn if i had been here when this thing was first started 😂

[blissful frigate]

price: easy. start options: not needed xd

[tranquil prairie]

100+ parts that need price changes, Yeah easy, But yeah time consuming too 😂 Start options are needed. Unless everyone wants to own a four speed lol Again, Pointless rushing it out. Atleast once its done properly, it wont need to be done again later. Dont have a date yet. I expect to be expanding testing by either the last day of this month, or early next month.

[gritty wave]

Oh damn sounds like hell doing that many prices, And well now that you say it that would explain why all bananas mustangs comes with 4 speeds hm, wish he put more time into that mod cause i love it haha

[blissful frigate]

hell, ill take a four speed any day

and i dont care the price of parts.

[gritty wave]

But yeah haha me too, but well would be nice with some different spawns

[tranquil prairie]

Yeah its pretty annoying, Especially because you have to balance the total part price with the sale price. to make it somewhat profitable to flip. Ah yeah dont blame him for not doing it. Annoying as hell to do, you gotta assign all the options manually to the built car prefab for existing parts, And load some extra parts from cached resources (Which is not playing ball atm for some reason)

[gritty wave]

Ouch damn, Yeah i mean aint blaming him he just hasnt updated the mod in a very long time :(, But he has been putting a lot of focus on the charger which i love

About how much will the car cost when its 5 stars btw?

[tranquil prairie]

Yeah i heard that charger was getting a rework, Which is nice to hear

[blissful frigate]

hopefully not to much as i am gonna need one as soon as this car releases. if im lucky i wont have too much time to get money for it, but knowing modding i will have plenty of time 😭

[tranquil prairie]

Currently, Super is the same as a chad. But some parts are a little more expensive than their chad counter parts, so this may change. RT is a little higher, cannot remember the exact price, either high 20s or low 30s. But again, alot of that will prob get changed and moved around on release

[gritty wave]

Im tempted to wait a lil extra to start a new save just so i can get a coronet as a first car hehe

[gritty wave]

Ah yeah fair

[blissful frigate]

"a lil extra" hopefully lol

[gritty wave]

well it dont be looking to far off now haha, but yeah really i can wait another year lol

[tranquil prairie]

Ah perfect, Il do another 60 remodels before releasing then 😂

[gritty wave]

Oh no! 😂

[tranquil prairie]

I'm pretty firm that it will release next month, so hopefully not too long!

[blissful frigate]

your opinions are far from mine

i dont know if i can wait another day. let alone a month 😂

[gritty wave]

Tru tru haha, Yeah but with this quality im good to wait lol

looks like it will be a blast to build 'n' really done properly

[blissful frigate]

im not.

xd

[gritty wave]

yeah haha

Welp time to blast me ears off with metal and try to get something done on at least one of my mods lol

[misty sentinel]

It got a rework. Its alot nicer than the original tbh. Even has a RS ver. 🤣

[edgy nexus]

why is the rt more expensive

also i forgot if i asked but is a standard coronet base model planned

[tranquil prairie]

Spawns with the six pack, and extra parts, so to try and avoid people just flooding the markets with sixpack engines, I upped the price, That and in real life it would be worth more than a superbee anyway iirc.

[tranquil prairie]

base 2dr? no not really, Its kinda pointless, would spawn with the same engines and most of the same parts. If someone really wanted to, There are enough parts to make one from a superbee though. 4dr will have a base model though.

[edgy nexus]

what if the base model had a slant 6 and a 3 spd

[blissful frigate]

Ooo, interesting

[rugged reef]

i4 enters chat

LOL

[tranquil prairie]

Microbee may be a thing i do for April fools, I think it would be funny.

[tranquil prairie]

Would be cool but, Game doesn't have a 3 speed trans, Also note. The more cars, The longer the loading time. But we will see how the loading times are after the addition of the four door variants.

[turbid creek]

sorry for bugging you but how are you gonna go by recruiting the testers?

[vapid current]

i wanna be tester lol

[blissful frigate]

dont we all?

[vapid current]

yeah lmfao

its @rugged reef

thats me too lol

[blissful frigate]

ah ok

[vapid current]

yuh

[tranquil prairie]

Hey! No need to apologise at all! Always happy to answer questions, Well tbh its mostly gonna be based on people who I think can be trusted, and people who have extensive experience testing for other modders. Again ideally, This wont be a long period. So hopefully it wont be in this state for very long.

[tranquil prairie]

Also quick update, The new glass thing is sadly prob not gonna go ahead for coro mod. Turns out ever since windows have been tintable, The game forces the glass material. So this new material would be on every car. And it varies results on some in game cars. It may become a standalone mod though if enough people want it?

[gritty wave]

i dont see whats different? or is it that it reflects

actually think it is?

[tranquil prairie]

Normal glass uses a fade method, So it has no reflection, This replaces it with glass that reflects like a normal material.

Originally it was done to prevent you being blinded while driving, But so far i havent had this issue.

[edgy nexus]

i kinda want the better glass mod

[gritty wave]

I like the reflection

Looked real good on the coronet there like loved that picture

[tranquil prairie]

Thanks!

[spiral void]

Yes, I want this as a mod because it looks cool

[tranquil prairie]

Uploaded the glass mod to nexus for those who want it : https://www.nexusmods.com/mygarage/mods/208 (Will make a mod notif later)

[tranquil prairie]

Also got start options working 👍

[devout bay]

Oooooohohohhohohoh

BERY

LEMEM GET DIS

I been wanting this

[stone tapir]

why was it originally in the old version of the game, but now we need to install mods

[umbral heart]

On experimental reflection quality when go closer to windows they disappear
first pic on good quality
i am playing on (basic) anyway but testing now (good) kind of weird maybe because i play all time on (basic)

[tranquil prairie]

Pretty sure this is a bug, But i dont think reflective-glass causes it. (I've had this bug before i made the mod) Seems to be triggered from just randomly changing the reflection quality from best to basic, Or to good. Will double check though. Thanks for the report!

[umbral heart]

👌
BTW nice mod looks better MB needs to add maybe this to update

[blissful frigate]

yea that looks really good, should deffently make it a seperate mod.

[blissful frigate]

ooo

[blissful frigate]

https://tenor.com/view/kermit-frog-panic-frantic-yay-gif-16814992

[blissful frigate]

oh is it?

[vapid current]

how laggy is it?

for lower end pcs

[tranquil prairie]

Reflective glass or coronet? Coro should perform alright, will find out soon and lyk. Reflective should be alright, Though as with everything, The more stuff that uses it, The less fps. Typical reflection stuff.

[tranquil prairie]

Haven't given a status update in a bit. Getting closer :

Added new rear fenders and extensions, To better fit its real life counter part (and decals)

Added new rear bumper, With fixes to a bug where the bumper would become flat-shaded on damage.

Start options are now fully functional, Allowing Different transmissions, Gearstick's And roofs to spawn (Will be expanded in the future.)

Renamed all part names from their prefab names to their final release names.

Fixed Bad UV's on windows.

Fixed Incorrect shading on windows internally.

Fixed issues with parts not being able to be picked up

Fixed bug where the headliner would try to attach to the mirror 😂

Fixed and reverted changes to parts disappearing when taking damage.

Still working on prices, But updated quite a few already

Renamed 70 RT Hemi to Coronet RT externally.

Fixed Rust not appearing on torsion bar support.

Fixed Spawn Rates for Superbee and Coronet RT being reversed.

Fixed window lifters spawning with windows.

Improved Postbuild performance by caching MCP at the start of the method.

and much more im forgetting, I've been working a lot in the background lol.

[gritty wave]

Damn awesome! Love the softtops! Know i'll be rocking those all day!

[tranquil prairie]

Thanks! Yeah i like them too, Not sure if i wanna allow ALL colors though.. Some just look wrong 😂

[blissful frigate]

i think your should, jiust for freedome

but this thing looks so good dude, i am honestly so excited to play with it

[median pilot]

I'm so excited 🤩

[blissful frigate]

same 😂

[turbid creek]

cannot wait for this mod you've done such a great job

[cunning parcel]

Fantastisch

[gritty wave]

Really whats fantastic is the mat master so i mean even if you dissabled em people could paint it with mat master

did that with some interior it looked sweet

[blissful frigate]

im deleating your message xd

[gritty wave]

What did you even delete haha?

[blissful frigate]

uh

"sex"

[gritty wave]

hm

[hybrid crater]

doing great work mate keep it up 🤙

[dry obsidian]

hmm cant wait to add this to the barn

[blissful frigate]

cant wait to add this to the tree

[dry obsidian]

same

[vapid current]

wym?

[blissful frigate]

coronet go into the tree 👍

at like 100 mph

"it adds personality"

[vapid current]

oh

i thought u had a pile of cars arount 1 tree

[upper orchid]

mb said it looks weird to have reflections on glass

[vapid current]

maybe on tinted windows but on fishbowls nah

or maybe its the other way around

i forget

[tranquil prairie]

Ah i see. I kinda get it. Personally i've found it looks worse with the less uniform polys there are. So it make sense, as chad, Bart, and jason all looks a little rough. But b200 looks alright. So it does vary a bit.

[upper orchid]

also reflections on windows make windows visible at least - without them its hard to find it sometimes

[tranquil prairie]

Yeah true. Good and bad things. My fix would be using 2 materials (as the glass mesh contains two duplicated panes) and then set the internal one to the current non-reflective version. The external one to the reflective version. But it would cost more performance, and im not sure what slot the material could go in that wouldn't get messed with by the tint.

[vapid current]

does the mod fix not being able to see thru the window with tint on or is it just a reflection

[upper orchid]

tint ig bad in this game even without mods

it supposed to be more transparent from inside but it being same inside

[tranquil prairie]

Just reflections

[upper orchid]

also vanilla have reflections if tint installed

[vapid current]

yeah

its bad

https://discord.com/channels/873306861594640384/1241761506308391023 yall gotta use this

its amazing

im on a pretty decent potato (runs gta at 30-40fps) runs mg at 9-10 fps and this mod puts it up to 20 ish

[upper orchid]

yeah best reflections become playable with it

[vapid current]

on LOW graphics, i couldnt go above very low or its a slidshow

[upper orchid]

i remember playing on laptop temporalily (it had 840m) was bad experience even on lowest everything

[vapid current]

well when the game first came out, the very first video that was made on it was when i bought it(couple days after release) and then i had a MSI laptop hunk of literal shit with a i7 11800U and a 3060 then it broke and i just got some new ram for this hp ISlim desktop i have. it originally had 8gb of ram and got very slow after a year of owning it(had it since like 2020 iirc) and its got a i3 10100 and 630 Intel graphics. it runs great now im so happy with it.

sorry for essay

but i recently got a NEW desktop for free for helping someone move. its got i5 9700K (overclockable finally) and a 1660

just waiting for a desk cuz its like 10x the size of this hp

[blissful frigate]

ong thats a beautyful car

[trim fractal]

Robin plz bench seats

[gritty wave]

I'd just throw in some b200 seats haha, did that in my el camino 'n' looks mint

though its a lil to wide i guess

[trim fractal]

Yeh

[gritty wave]

but DAMN! Yeah thats sick

[tranquil prairie]

Was planned, But after seeing that image, I've gotta start working on it now (May not be out on release, We will to see how fast i can model something nice)

[tranquil prairie]

Also, Thank you Skybobo, That roof seal and dash connection is actually a REALLY useful reference for me.

[trim fractal]

Cut and scooped hood are coming right? (The answer is probably obvious)

[tranquil prairie]

Yep, Scooped already exists, Cut will take like 5 seconds to make.

[blissful frigate]

@tranquil prairie you could make the normal hood cut, and then have a plate that fills that hole, which can be cut or welded on or off with grinder

[upper orchid]

hmm, like buying hood already with this piece welded in?

and then you can cut it off

[blissful frigate]

Yes

It should be easy I’m I’m not mistaken

The good would just have a child, witch then has a child witch is the cut part of the hood

Imma test this idea tomorrow maybe on my 73 coronet hood, as it’s a cool idea in my mind

Thinking now, that system Is used by dipsticks, oil plugs, ect, which all return to their original position after reload, imma try tkmorrrow.

[blissful frigate]

doesnt work.

[random hemlock]

this is only 1 year more new than that one im making but its so much different i cant even know are they dodge coronets or even same company 🤣

[blissful frigate]

yea the 70's look way diff than the years surrounding it

[random hemlock]

its so wierd how can one year older look so different

[eternal kite]

the body is the same as 69

[blissful frigate]

yea the fronts are alot diff though

[eternal kite]

yes

[random hemlock]

they cant be same body but close to it

[wheat lodge]

They’re the exact same

[eternal kite]

it is exacly the same body on them

[wheat lodge]

Other than the front fenders, grill, and rear fascia

[random hemlock]

but how does that front make it look so different then

[wheat lodge]

Just the flatness

[blissful frigate]

the front end is completely diff around the grill

so they look nothing alike

side by side

[eternal kite]

yes its a new front end on them as on charger 70 the grill on a coronet 70 is bumper and grill at the same time

[random hemlock]

wierd it looks little bit different to me that side is it from google or where that it is same side and body because i really see something different

[eternal kite]

i have hade bothe cars at the same time in irl so i know they are the same body

[random hemlock]

really?

[eternal kite]

yes

[random hemlock]

why did you have them same time

[eternal kite]

i whanted them so i did import them at the same time i did get them for a good price

[random hemlock]

do you till have them

[eternal kite]

no sold them but my old girl friend still have the coronet 70

[random hemlock]

ok

how long you had them

[eternal kite]

i think i did have 7 us cars when i did import them
