Could you try adding an electric sound? Basically a quiet sinus sound would be enough.

 

It's electric!

 

Hey, if you have any modeling skill, maybe you could add an aero grille, replacing the front grille. Just a suggestion, but don't over expend yourself.

 

I don't know if there's something wrong with the version that I downloaded, but it does 0-60 in 20 seconds...
I also have a few criticisms:

• The engine still sounds and looks gasoline
• Speed(or lack thereof)
• The motor spins to only 4000 RPM, and leaves a lot of room on the gauge wasted
• Battery?

I'll see if I can make an electric sound for it. If so, then I'll let it rev a lot higher and be more powerful.
I'll try make the engines look more like an electric motor. I'm not very good at 3D modeling though
I'll also try to remove the remnants of the gas engine and add electric parts.
I may just remake the whole car into a separate vehicle.
--- Post updated ---

That seems like a good idea I'll see what I can do.

 

I've modeled a motor based upon tesla's motors. Just delete the engine bay components and exhaust in blender and put this in. A battery is pretty easy to model.

 

So, I have been working on finding a sound for my electric car, and giving it more power. But, I have tried to put that electric motor model you sent me into the 3d model of the pessima, and even after i save it and put it with the other files, the motor does not appear in the car! can you help me?

 

All of the models should be within the same file. It's not that you can't have multi-DAE - it's just cleaner. If it doesn't appear, you should make sure that you've properly named it in the 3d file, given it a material within blender and properly referred to it(the 3D component) within the jbeam. If you need something to refer to, try the wiki or other finished cars within the game.

If you have any other questions, just PM me and send me the file.

Hey
I really like your mod. But i personally liked it more when you were able to choose the engine from the official car tab.
Its just easier to get the stanced version and swap the engine instead of having to copy the whole setup
Also in the case , if someone else makes modification for the pessima you could still use the electric engine with the other mod

 

I see what you mean. I made it into a separate vehicle because I wanted to add an electric motor to the 3d model, and an "electric motor" sound.
I felt that the mod was not right when it still looked and sounded like a gasoline engine

is it just me or the engine does look like a big black object?

 

I am still currently working on that. It's using the material of "coupe_engine". If I use a different material, the motor shows up as orange with "NO MATERIAL". I am also trying to make the battery not body colored. For 3D modeling, I'm not very good at it.
