Update Speculation thread

Gavril grand marshal seems to sorta fit!
here is all the handles on the Gavril, Does not fit the van, roamer,

MAYBE the ute ( d-series )

grand marshal is the most close fit, BUT the front end is to Different,,.... or is it,

I hope t his helps

PS a wagon/coupe Would be heaven, BUT about time we saw a limo,

 

You see the window briefly. Also the tital makes it obvious its a limo. And the leaked limo textures.

Honestly, the front looks off. I am dying for a facelifted Grand Marshal. The devs seem to embrace facelifts now. The Burnside, Miramar, and the MD all got facelifts, so it would only make sense they make one for the GM. It’s also a cheat way to make a “different” car. I bet my wheel and shifter there will be a facelift and/or Burnside rebadge.

 

I feel like aside from the Tograc, a better comparison would be the Diana and the two Rennspechts, since it effectively only comes down to the badge in those three cases. The Charro and MR Turbo I'd consider trim levels under the same nameplate umbrella ("D10"/"Dxx" and "Covet" respectively).

 

Honestly, the devs are so cool for making the cars realistic by keeping different versions under the same car. I mean, the MD bus could EASILY be made a different vehicle in the menu, but it isn’t because the devs care about realism. In GTA there are so many cars the are some how considered separate vehicles that are just facelifts or different paint. If you count facelifts, and completely different body styles as separate cars like in GTA, BeamNG has roughly 70 cars.

 

Why does everyone think it’s a facelift? The headlights look identical to the current Grand Marshal to me

 

While I agree that it doesn't look like a facelift in the image if the GM is getting a remaster it probably (hopefully) will get a facelift out of the deal like CrashHaven said. It's an easy way to add "another" car.

 

All those examples that you made the cars were under the same brand name, and IIRC wayyyy back when (I think 0.4), the Roamer used to be under the D-Series before becoming its own model, so it’s probably more than likely becoming its own model

 

I would be really surprised if we got a facelift, it looks exactly like the standard GM

 

Let's just hope that the next teaser will give us more infos on the upcoming " refreshed / remastered" vehicle ! Teaser are very difficult for 0.37 hahaha maybe they could show the structure of the car like they did with the Lansdale to help us clarify some speculations.

To be honest, I don't think they will refresh the GM , especially since they added some custom body kit , they remade the V8 engines sound and they fully implemented the smooth lightning system all of that very not long ago . When they are planning on remastering a vehicle they simply ignore / don't give it the lastest features until they are remaking it .
If I have to guess they only adding a limo config, nothing much .

I don't think 0.37 will be as big as we think ...

 

pigeon limo when?

 

Definitely a GM, and it has new light textures. Remaster, refresh? Idk…but go head and put a fuel filler door flap thing on this one, too, devs. Gonna have to get’em all eventually

edit: maybe I’m trippin and the lights look the same

 

I think some people are forgetting that the GM got new engine sounds, new body kit, new configs etc a few updates ago. It'll be a further refresh of the content for the car, not a remaster from the ground up. Probably because major remaster work on it was done years ago and it only needs touching up

 

Lets hope they do at least re Texture the frame, and rework the Odd power window stuff, A remake would be AWESOME BUT yes you right, I think it still holds up well,

 

This makes most sense. You can refresh the looks of a car a lot by changing some minor parts that stand out the most, i.e. the lights or rebaking body textures in higher detail. This way, the new stuff should mostly fit without any changes.

 

Yo I'm REALLY pumped about that teaser! My 2 most wished for remasters/refreshes were of the Grand Marshal and H-Series!!

Not only that but basically it's really really hard to make a new BeamNG car from scratch.

 

I knew the traffic worked like that, I think I just cant write very well. Where is the spawn chance in the config file? I thought at the start when you spawn them in its just completely random what configs get picked, but to fake rarity theres just less configs of the rarer cars. Honestly find the traffic system WAY to interesting. Correct me if I am wrong, always nice to learn.

PS hopper needs to be included in traffic.

 

Oh thanks for the info! How tf did I miss that when making simplified traffic cars lmao. I hope theres limo will spawn. Assuming theres a short frame limo, I know the ai isn’t very good at handling long vehicles. Hopper for traffic!
