Scintilla GT3 Parts 2.1

The gearing for the Nordschleife setup seems a bit short. it starts bouncing off the rev limiter at around 174 MPH in the first sector, and if its doing that in the first sector, the final straight will be an issue

 

A gt3 k-series would be nice

 

Another part with borked UVs found:

GT3 right door:


Vanilla hardtop right door:


PS: the rear fascia on the GT3 bumper has flipped UVs (which are correct because the performance bumper is flipped, but having this flipped when the vanilla one stays the same makes no sense).

 

I did a thing:

 

I prefer the old rear bumper design which tried to follow the body shape tbh, this looks as if it was simply bolted on.

 

Looks sick

 

do you prefer it like that ?

 

WAIT HOLY F*CK IS THAT A MILD W I D E B O D Y ? ? ?
HELL YEAAAAAAA

Damn now I really wish I had a better PC even more

This is literally now my most favourite mod ever
--- Post updated ---
Thank you sooo much @Turbo49>

 

Here are my few suggested fixes
Need to follow the rear fender arch

 

I tried, but it looked too square compared to it, and modifying the fender itself resulted in bad shading

 

So what about Porsche bumpers?
I installed vanilla cut bumpers. It may be easier to imagine the finish here

 

I feel like a vent suits the car better than to block it off, since it's not round like a porsche. I'll try some things to make it look more attached.

 

- I noticed two different options for 'Ethanol Fuel Tanks', but once selected, the engine does not work due to lack of fuel. I was wondering what the intention of these fuel tanks was, and if I am doing something wrong when trying to utilise them?
- Additionally, I was wondering if you intend to create more GT3 spec mods as it would be great to have a variety of cars to use on BeamMP server hosting the mod (especially with the recent release of a tire wear and drafting mod)?

 

Fuel stuff gonna be fixed, just didn't work it out on 100%
Etk k gt3 is gonna be next

 

Hello!

I absolutely love this mod, it's wild! Im still currently reading the thread from the begginning so might say some things that you already've been heard/working on/etc.

Theres some things that I want to say:



Bugs / strange things

01. Bumper with additional lights doesnt show its model (at all), just the conrods and other
stuff on the bumper, but not the bumper nor the lights.
(I cleared the cache and even reinstalled fresh BeamNG but it didnt help)
Fix: Fix the model ig.

02. Inconsistency with names:
01. Front tires named "245/40R18 King Type-3 Front Tires"
and rear named "305/40R18 GT3 Rear Tires".
02. Front brakes named "GT3 Steel Front Disc Brakes"
and rear named "GT3 Rear Disc Brakes".
Fix: Rename properly.

03. Fuel cap stays in the air if rear subframe is removed/ripped off.
Fix: Make window cover as one part, and fuel cap as custom rear fenders
or better - modification for them.

04. With GT3 Hood theres locks, but hood can't be opened.
(Also to open it you supposed to open both locks as on other oem racecars in the game)
Fix: Make it open. It really makes that small dose of immersion that makes your day .

05. Mod compatibility.
01. Exhaust. I wanted to install different exhaust, but theres only race exhaust option,
even through there should not be any problem with having options on it.
If you wanted to make competititve, you can make two models: one strict and other
with open list of modifications.
02. Also I wanted to install a roof intake but there was no slot for roof accessories on the
body.
Fix: Make slots open.
(By that I mean make list of "slots" shareble with an original model of engine if that
makes sense)

06. Rainlight works like stoplight.
Fix: Make it flash with timer.
(As for very example: KTM X-Bow GT4 from Forza Horizon 5)

07. Ballast cant be set at 0kg.
Fix: Extend the limit from 5kg to 0kg.

08. Driver Weight limit is kinda high. Theres people that weigh about 25kg. And also if theres
option to remove Driver Weight entirely, why not let people set it to 0 whenever they want
to?
Fix: Extend the limit by your decision.

08. If you change bumper you lose side bumper things
(Also can be described as diffuser part I guess)
Fix: Make them as defuser modification, this way you will get higher mod compatibility.

09. Car don't work with 5.2L V10 GT3 Engine and Electric Engine at the front.
It will be fun to try driving hybrid just simply for fun .
Fix: Fix the engine.

10. If you choose Center Lug Front Wheel Hubs after 5-Lug Front Wheel Hub:
01. When you change wheels to GT3 ones, they spawn without tires.
02. When you choose GT3 Front Disc Brakes, front will spawn with Full Race Barke Pads
and rear will spawn with Semi-Race Brake Pads.
03. If you choose "CBR GT3 Rear Wheels (Colorable)" the car brakes and the rear flies up.
Also theres no such wheels for the front.
Fix: Add default tires for GT3 Wheels.
Fix default rear brake pads.
Fix CBR GT3 Wheels and add them to the front as well.

11. Compressor sound is kinda broken. It happens for no almost no reason or consistency
and can even jumpscare you.
Fix: Make it make sense / Change the sound / Remove it completely.
(The last one is what I did for myself ).

12. Make Camber Adjust, Caster Adjust, Toe Adjust settings much more flexible. At max
-100 camber I only got -3.2 degrees, at max caster +100 I got 5.7, at max toe +100 I got
insane -1.2 degrees which is really unacceptable. I should be able to at least make camber
-4, caster 15, toe 0. But more is appreciable .
Fix: Extend the values limits.



Wishes

01. Adjustment of front aero.

02. Add engine maps, just like in ACC. For example:
01 - Qualify / Most power and least fuel efficiency.
02 - Push / High power and low fuel efficiency.
03 - Steady / Medium power and medium fuel efficiency.
04 - Economy / Low power and high fuel efficiency.
05 - Pacecar / Least power and almost no fuel usage (And speed limit at 100kph / 60mph).
You can probably make it by changing airflow or fuel richness, not really sure.

03. Custom model suspension with complex geometry and bumpstops.

04. I'd like to see racing slidable window on the passenger side (Just like driver side has).

05. Combine Left and Right Fuel Volume setting into one (Make them automatically get even).

06. More custom models, like:
01. New radiators.
02. Beefier driveschafts.
03.

07. Slightly widebody .

08. Gear by gear customisation. It might be little unfair in competetive racing so you better
make two versions - one that is tunable and other that isn't.

09. Carbon fibre fillers between rear fenders and rear bumper can look cool if make it like grill
(Like radiator exhausts.

10. Make custom inner fenders and brakes cooling pipe like it is on real racecars.

11. Customisable text on spoiler and windshield. Also custom numberplates (Just like the
display on the windshield will be good)

12. Tube chassis (Subframe), maybe even that goes through the entire car and connects
with rollcage.

13. MORE STEERING WHEELS. I really would love to see wheel like Fanatec McLaren GT3
Steering Wheel or Fanatec BMW M4 GT3 Steering Wheel.

14. Handle on the dors in lock-like style (Like you did on the hood).

18. V8 will be amazing to have as nowadays all GT3 cars have V8/V6 engines.

19. Maybe change rear window (The one that is ontop of the engine) to grille of some sort?
On real racecars its rare to see a window just for the engine (My guess).

20. Pit limiter will be EXTREMELY helpful .



Questions

01. What "Competizione mode" stays for? I didnt find any description of it anywhere, it will
be also amazing if you will make a small FAQ section on the mod page.



Some nice screenshots


Yes I made double conrods I think it looks amazing


Yes I modified exhaust and bumper for it (With GT3 Engine)

 

1. Gotta check
2. Post-Testing mess, will clean
3. I think i made it just a flexbody, i don't remember, will check
4. Yeah, It's on the list
5. I have a thought that if you actually pick GT3 parts, you stay with GT3 parts, to reduce all potential bs in competetive races (especially in mp), this philosophy might change, but slots that have useless parts to overall GT3 theme l are . . . useless? We still have an idea to make these cars a separate from their respective serial model, but it's 50/50.
6. This is a nice catch, i think it was discussed once but forgotten
7. Ballast is part of BOP, it can be non-existent so i kinda see no problem. You might expand on this cause im not all-knowing and might've missed some info.
8. Thats a bit weird tbh, a dude with 25kg won't be able to press those brake pedals consistently. Iirc full brake power at least in DTM cars was at least 100kg. Again yeah we just want to make it somewhat "realistic".
8. We could attach lower diffuser to undertray, but i think not everyone will easy guess where to find diffuser then tbh. Don't you think?
9. Will check i guess
10. Yeah that needs some cleaning, post-testing mess
11. For you to know that it's actually pretty consistent, because it's actually coded, not just random % to trigger. There's a LUA coded air tank with certain PSI, and with each shift you draw some air from it (to shift irl), downshifting takes around twice as more air than upshift, and when you hit low pressure threshold, compressor kicks in. If you don't believe me, Audi's compressor has no chill:

12. I'll pass this question to our experts
------------------------------
1. Yeah that's discussed a lot and opinions vary literally 50/50. You could make a better point and actually name the GT3 cars that actually have existing variable front aero, so we'd know that's not fictional.
2. Yeah that's a good idea either, will do this at some point
3. Problem is that our 3d model dude is busy with fog lights and interior. And there's literally almost no games with models out there, cuz nobody models full suspension, but i had the same idea literally this week. Can't promise now, you could help with dropping info and pictures of GT3 suspension system.
4.
-Huracan - none

- Amg GT3 - none

- Porsche - none

- 296 GT3 - none

I mean, we trying to keep it real to the references, if you reeeeally want that, i can just send you jbeam and dae.
5. Yeah i think it's good idea, will discuss that
6. Same problem, nobody models that and busy developer. If you actually have some free guy, thats always welcome
7. We compared several gt3 cars and scintilla is actually big boi, but Turbo49 have some enhancements done but not much as widebody talk
8. It's maybe we'll allow very small tune to it, maybe new part, will see, i can't make such decisions alone
9. I'll leave that to @Turbo49>
10. Drop some shots or info on this, maybe not hard to do
11. I've yet to know how to do that
12. Im not sure how much work it'd require
13. Maybe in future, we wanna create a new one, better one at least, so we might leave the current one as an option or transfer it to potential sbr. About real life replicas, mmmmmmm questionable stuff for repository mod (copyright)
14. Will look into
18. Previous v8 used before 2.0 version is already set to be in ETK K. As for V6, man, those v6-es have no sound, no scream. Also, almost no samples to take, default v6 would be bullshit, because the sound is pure serial car vibe. But again, if you have any, no problem, we'll test and tune.
19. I thought about that, to have somewhat of Aventador vibe, but yet to come with decent design, drop ideas, will see what we can do
20. @lucky4luuk that's better to ask this guy, maybe he'll do it for single player some day. I could make it, but LUA dude actually costs me real money to have gimmicks. Which nobody pays me back, soooo yeah c:

 

Its worth noting series dont allow fuel maps anymore. they regulate the lambda of the AFR for GT3 cars now meaning you really only get one map. iRacing recently reflected this change to their GT3 cars

 

Nice, thanks
