my idea for a lore friendly 2000s ford falcon and 2000s holden commodore. the idea came around the time that i decided to stop using real life car mods in beamng. (i then downloaded a lot of lore friendly mods) I had noticed that there's cars from every major continent. (USA, Europe, Japan, there's even Russian cars with the Taz pack. but yet none from Australia? anyway, here's my idea: beamng name: Gavril hawk lore: back in 1960, Gavril ventured to a place no one dared to go, AUSTRALIA. when they arrived, they quickly started clashing with rival company Marlow. over the years the two would battle it out at the showerhurst 1000. in 2016, the Australian government had made it quite hard for manufacturers to produce cars in Australia, so Gavril naturally pulled the plug, bringing an end to an icon. body styles: sedan, wagon, ute, work ute (no side panels) models: thirté, furtuna, R6X, R8X, richmont, LX engines: 4.0 "OUTTECH" I6, 5.0 "WIND-SAW" V8, 5.6 "AIR-BLADE" tockford V8 transmissions: 4 speed auto, 5 speed auto, 5 speed manual factory tuning company: tockford factory configs: thirté I6 sedan, work ute, & wagon. thirté V8 sedan & work ute. furtuna I6 sedan & wagon. R6X I6 sedan. R8X V8 sedan. richmont I6 sedan & wagon. richmont LX I6 sedan. richmont LX V8 sedan. factory special configs: tockford R6X I6 sedan. tockford R8X V8 sedan & ute custom configs: P plater (I6 ute) police car (V8 sedan) hoon (V8 ute) showerhurst (V8 sedan) driftdumpster (I6 wagon) bogan mobile (I6 sedan) grandpa's richmont LX (I6 wagon) marlin swap (turbo 4.0 I6) *parody of a BARRA* MHC hoon car (turbo 4.0 I6) paddock basher (I6 sedan) should have 40 configs in total. (some trims get an auto and manual while others would get an auto exclusive. e.g.: entire richmont LX line-up) beamng name: Marlow commander lore: in 1950, alex Marlow founded Marlow motors under the parent company of bruckell. then in 1960, Marlow motors came across its forever rival: Gavril Australia. over the years the two would battle it out to see who made a better car for Australia. some took Marlow's side, some took Gavril's. in 2017, bruckell decided to pull the plug on Marlow motors as they sadly weren't making them enough money. bringing an end to Australian car manufacturing. body styles: sedan, wagon, ute models: LX, accolame, CC, berlier, calis, engines: 3.8 "nastytec" V6, 3.8 supercharged "nastytec" V6, 5.7 SL1 V8. transmissions: 4 speed auto, 5 speed manual, 6 speed manual factory tuning company: MSV factory configs: LX V6/V6Super sedan, ute & wagon, LX V8 sedan, ute & wagon, accolame V6/V6Super sedan & wagon, CC V8 sedan & wagon, berlier V6 sedan & wagon, berlier V8 sedan & wagon, calis V6/V6Super sedan, ute & wagon, calis V8 sedan, ute & wagon, factory special configs: batsport V8 sedan, batsport 8R V8 sedan, GST V8 sedan. custom configs: P plater (V6S sedan) police car (V8 sedan) showerhurst (V8 sedan) ex police BT2 (V8 sedan) grandpas calis (V6 wagon) bogan mobile (V6 sedan) winternats (V8 sedan) paddock basher (V6 wagon) should have 37 configs in total. (some trims get an auto and manual while others would get an auto exclusive. e.g.: entire calis line-up) so far I've watched tutorials on how to write jbeam files, but I cant model if my life depended on it. (UPDATE) have been practising writing jbeam files, but I'm still struggling to learn to model. (no, I'm not trying to beg someone to help) if anyone would like to comment your suggestions, please feel free. I have more ideas for lore friendly beamng vehicles, such as a medium sized truck like the Hino 300 and 500 series. or a collection of excavators and construction equipment ranging from small backyard excavators to massive mining excavators
here's the cars they'll be based on: (Gavril hawk = AU ford falcon) (Marlow commander = VX holden commodore)
