Ingame vehicle Viewer/Editor: Comments please / propose features :)

It's not actually released yet, it will make its way into future versions eventually.

 

The ability put and modify the stuff below:

"refNodes":[
["ref:", "back:", "left:", "up:", "leftCorner:", "rightCorner:"]
["a26", "a23", "a25", "a50", "a52", "a53"]
],
"cameraExternal":{
"distance":4.5,
"distanceMin":1.5,
"offset":{"x":0.15, "y":0.2, "z":0.45},
"fov":65,
},
"cameraChase":{
"distance":4.5,
"distanceMin":1.5,
"defaultRotation":{"x":0, "y":-11.2, "z":0},
"offset":{"x":0.15, "y":0.2, "z":0.7},
"fov":65,
},
"camerasInternal":[
["type", "x", "y", "z", "fov", "id1:", "id2:", "id3:", "id4:", "id5:", "id6:"],
{"nodeWeight":1.24},
{"selfCollision":false},
{"collision":false},
{"beamSpring":69000,"beamDamp":435},
{"beamDeform":5001000,"beamStrength":"FLT_MAX"},
["fender", -1.25, 0.3, 0.9, 70, "f1r","f2r","f5r","f4r","f1l","f5l"],
["hood", 0.0, -0.1, 1.05, 70, "f1r","f1l","f3r","f3l","f5r","f5l"],
["dash_r", -0.33, 0.07, 1.10, 90, "a49","a51","a55","a28","a30","a57"],
["dash", 0.33, 0.07, 1.12, 90, "a49","a51","a54","a28","a30","a56"],
],

 

It seems like this feature has been snuck into the newest update.

I'm not sure if it was intentional or not as I can't seem to find any mention of it in the changelog.

Seems pretty cool, although I'm having some trouble moving the jbeam around the screen and in other viewports. The default offset is also very strange.

 

Hello I see this thread has been quiet for a long time. Has there been any updates to this in-game editor idea?

 

I know this thread is really old and this is now in game, but perhaps a feature that could be added is beam length? I know I could just sit down and do the math between the two nodes, but being able to just select a beam and see its length would be a major help... especially when it's frozen in its spawned position before it actually can move.

I swear this used to be a thing where I could get blanket lengths, but I can't seem to find the feature anywhere.

 

I know I have said it before, however, being able to see a real time output of this would be really useful for suspension tuning, to see sag and how much travel is being used during driving.

 

Since this is bumped, I don’t know if I just didn’t read it right but isn’t this a visualizer not an editor? What’s the editing part?

 

Oh I see! Thanks!
