    Make it like a hologram plate.


    The black part would be where the plate goes, maybe the plate would disappear when the car got turned off?.

    .

    That seems like something that could happen but still... what would that even look like and if it looks bad then then nobody would like it and honestly the holoplate would be flush with the body. But I think the creator will think of something.

    @Velstydez @TestaRossa, will you do any electric configs? Or is the car just going to be gas?

    What, and make it look like a teenage valley girl's first car? No thanks.

    Also, it's Velstydez who's making this car, not TestaRossa.

    Why me lol

    My only modding effort was the power/torque curve for @Shiokarai's 330, so that isn't out of reach at least ;)
    Thing is, I'm not sure if Velstydez is going to share their mod files with me, and we both would probably want a modeled e-motor anyway (I have 0 experience with model creation, so RIP to that)

    Bling license plate is a no. That wouldn't even be remotely legal. While it's true that suicide doors wouldn't exactly be approved today, that kind of plate would be totally forbidden, as any license plate must remain visible at all times even if the car is stopped, and it cannot rely on the car's energy to be visible. I'll have to make an appropiate slot in the bumper. But for now I'll go with the clean one without a license. About electric variant, the possibility exists as there is enough room for batteries in the floor. I sure don't mind modelling. But bringing it ingame with actual quality is another story as it is a ton more work than just modelling.

    I'm not excessively busy this week so hopefully there will be some more progress with jbeam and texturing (not quite satisfied with how it is now). I'll try to keep progress steady, although I admit that at this very moment the ammount of work left to do is mind boggling...

    Idk. I have more important stuff to worry about than the license plate, like jbeam. But fortunately progress is good :)

    Normal map has been redone. It's not perfect but it's an improvement. Also, main parts are mostly jbeamed (will still need weight and B pillar tweaks) except for the front cone and the doors.
