Nice job! That's fast progress for a high quality mod. Is it possible for the front end to be supported on the normal Covet, or did I not read enough? Also would love to see a digital dashboard and alternate grills with chrome, etc… Keep up the good work.
Sorry for not posting new progress here, I forgot. I´m very happy with the car now I´ve made changes and improvements to a lot of things. I don´t really want to list everything here (and I don´t know everything as it´s been a long time) but you can see yourself from the screenshots: I´ve also started making a second body style for it:
Thanks! I´m working on the mod for over a year now and I´m trying my best to get the best quality I can
So you made the ibishu saga basically wich looks like a 3g prelude looks very very similar https://www.beamng.com/resources/ibishu-saga.20208/
yes, it´s the same as the saga As you can see in the screenshots it´s a 1 to 1 copy. just joking but I don´t like how a lot of people say it´s the same. It´s similar but isn´t the same. I haven´t taken any inspiration from the saga
regardless, the Saga hasn't been updated since 2022 (I think it still works perfectly) but I don't think it has openable doors and such, could be wrong cause I lost interest in the Saga since it never had a RHD version made. Usually when I use JDM cars I like taking pictures/screenshots using the Yakuza maps and the Wangan C1 Loop, and a LHD vehicle doesn't make sense for those maps.
I personally think that even if they are similar, Altair is much better in proportions and overall appearence. And it also is going to be more up-to-date with more customisation and etc. I hate when people say "we already have *(insert name), we don't need this." In BeamNG there is no such thing as unneeded mods. Overall, you are making a great job, just don't listen to these persons
You are doing great on the car! It looks better than the saga and more accurate to the actual prelude because there is the small slant on the quarter window.
Some suggestions/parts you could add for both this mod and the existing Covet along with the EDX Covet and 1983-1986 pre-facelift Covet already in the KLJP mod (if you don't like it I know you don't need to but i'm just suggesting,) (example pics down below): -Bodystyle of an extremely extremely rare Altair convertible made in limited production numbers between 1983-1994 (inspired by the extremely rare Prelude Soltaire only made for 1981)(you could ask LJ if he wouldn't mind if you borrowed the soft-top and window animations from his Gavril Dynamo mod for a realistic convertible design) -Bodystyle of a quite rare Altair T-top (Targa) (Inspired by the Honda Civic Del Sol) made between 1985-1995, Also should be made is T-top bodystyles for both the original hatchback Covet 1983-1986 pre-facelift hatchback Covet and pre-facelift Covet EDX from KLJP -Post 1986 EDX from 1986-1996 with the same Altair popup headlights and fascia/front frame because the pre-remaster EDX from KLJP had popup headlights before the Covet remaster, -5-door sedan Altair bodystyle sold under the Covet nameplate -5-door Covet and 5-door Covet Estate (basically the 5-door Covet with an extended rear cargo space) -Louvers for both the Altair and the EDX from KLJP (NOTE: I'm back after the New Year's school break so please don't be surprised of my sudden return) --- Post updated --- LESS GO WE ABOUT TO GET DIS RELEASE!!! ! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR A LORE-FRIENDLY AE86 TRUENO/LEVIN MOD FOR A LONG TIEM! (Since I realized the Hirochi Noita was in W.I.P and it was a lore-friendly AE86 but I wanted a lore-friendly AE86 under the Ibishu brand, and this may cover it!)
Progress update less than 4 months after the last update (finally) In the last few days I´ve fixed a lot of bugs and reworked the body uv maps. I´ve also finally added edge normals.
