Wow this mod looks amazing. I cant wait for it to come out. There is a severe shortage of luxury cars in BeamNG, especially ones that are high quality. Please don't rush the creation of this mod, take much time as you need to
nice, i have a suggestion tho, instead of having 3 separate engines for the different power outputs of the 3.0 V6, why wouldn't you add 3 different ECUs for that?
if i remember right these engines are also different in physical. like the 60tfsi is more durabel than a 50tfsi...
THanks for your reply. No, I still don't get it, engines are absolutely inaccurate. 55 TFSI is 3,0L V6 with 340PS neither 50TFSI (does not exist) nor 60TFSI are V6, there is sole V6 with 55TFSI index. In very short there are three engines for D5: 3,0L V6 TDI (diesel) - 50TDI 3,0L V6 TFSI (petrol) - 55TFSI 4,0L V8 TFSI - 60 TFSI OR S8, its the same engine principially with small differences - biturbo EA825. preFL had also V8 diesel, but thats not the case. Again, DCT is misconception, such gearbox does not exist at all. About rest from pics, hard to tell, seems rather off and innacurate, but lets see final build.
I dont think they are "absolutely inaccurate". I see that you are right that the 50 TFSI is actually an 50 TDI here is a list from audi.de I know that a DCT is not available in the D5 Facelift but i still want to have it just incase someone wants it. Also what exactly is "innacurate" for you on the pictures you have seen?
OK, it exists in CN market, see the footnote (forgot about this tho). If we are ultra thorough then there is also hybrid 3,0V6+ LiOn batteries 60TFSIe. What about 3,0 V6 TDI (50 TDI) question remains, so its arbitrary question. All the changes require proper badging on the rear as well as full engine sounds etc. which makes me wonder. Regarding engines/gearboxes, I've already expressed myself. Regarding design/texturing/3d mesh: - smaller, meaning less height badges "A8L", compare with IRL: https://www.autowp.ru/audi/a8/d5/gallery/mobz1h - wrong font and design on virtual cockpit, looks too stretched from cockpit view in the pics (maybe I am wrong, just the pictures, but font and design is wrong); - speakers inside, wrong looking shiny outlines, shall be either: - fully metal B&O 3D klang B&O with specific design that also continues with moving out speakers on dash - door card metal textures have to be same size texture as on front - base B&O, that is black plastic and just one protuding element of shiny part - base music, plastic mesh - flipped textures on screens and buttons - Resize wheels so they match IRL selection now all just seem large (R21?): 5arm turbine rims needs to be R19, just take audi.de configurator for reference My suggestion, I understand it is difficult to find and make all 3d meshes, keep things simple. no need to go with most configurations and that BS, keep one model variation you can make most proper.
a hybrid wont be available here probably...and i have mentioned the 50TDI in my previous post. and about the rest i can for sure do something but the configurator models were like that so i will also keep them like that (but yes i will try to fix the inverted buttons) overall i will make this mod as good as i want it and this has more priority for than it being 100% realistic.
didn't notice the footnote, but the 50TFSI would be a nice addon, and with blue chinese plates we could have chinese config
if you want i can add a fictional 50 TFSI engine thanks! I will try to make the headlights as realistic as possible
