Ectro Kit Car flat 8 1.0

Best mod ever made absolutely perfect has no issues at all everyone else is just mad they couldn't take credit for the most amazing mod ever made for BeamNG

I'll always enjoy the variety of content you come up with!

Love it it's great and all but we just need more configs!

hahah really has the kit car vibe of being not the best built and for that i love it. its lots of fun well done :)

Its okay, looks decent and drives fun but needs a couple of improvements. Its an interesting experiment though

Low poly mod Doors open rear hood opens I liked driving it
note to the Author Ignore the trolls

the mod is good, has potential, a bit of a weird ass, but it's fun to drive 100%

not bad, but not good either

an ok mod. does mostly as expected.
actual bugs:
- the macpherson suspension is not very stable. the front offset by default with the mp suspension is very little, but increasing it to its maximum will cause the wheels to detach.
- the general jbeam is not the highest quality.
- the car will randomly become starved of oil sometimes. though i have yet to see a pattern in this, though it is vaguely similar to the moonhawk's issue before it got its fix.
personal nitpicks:
- the car is overall fairly low poly.
- there is only one vanilla steering wheel you can equip (mod wheels do work)
- the interior panels on the doors stay the same color, which can often clash with the body paint.
- the interior in general is not that exciting, it is just the piccolina interior unedited (though, it is a kit car, so it makes some amount of sense.)
- it looks quite ugly from the rear, though it's probably too late now to fix it and i respect that. i kind of like its questionable design in a way, actually.
- not much customization. hood pins, headlight covers, or aero parts would be nice additions.
- no livery support.
overall, a good attempt at making a full car in beamng. drives well and does not explode unpredictably. looks like a slightly retarded miata.

It looks like a catfish. 10/10

The mod has a lot of issues, heres what could be improved, the original message sent in filmans server had images but i cant attach them here, this is reposted so people know the issues of this mod and dont blindly give it 5 stars for no reason

i understand you want a bigger car but kit cars generally stay within the original proportions of the car based on (and on the case of the vws the frame sometimes gets extended) for a wider car youd just use fatter wheels instead of weirdly extending the suspension (will fuck up driving a tad). the design could defenatelly be much more smaller to fit the picco proportions . The licenceplate also looks a bit odd and could go in the lower part of the rear instead of the decklid
I imagine you used subdivision surface for the 3d model which while not bad makes the topology awful in certain places, you can defenately use subdivision surface but you need to clean up the mesh after using it (by removing a bunch of extra loops in the mesh) also the rear decklid is weirdly lowpoly?? you can see the curves are not smooth cuz of that
The int body is also generally much less detailed than the main shape, since its not gonna be seen as much, sharp details and ridges are generally removed to be lower poly
You would generally have one for the model, just use collections on a blender file to keep everything neat and organized
You forgot to change the internal names of the jbeams and some of the filenames, dont forget to do that for extra neatness
the jbeam is super weird since you have fenders from the autobello which are detachable but you dont have detachable fenders, leading to extremly broken meshes when you remove the fenders. for fixing this id either make the rear fenders actually a separate mesh as in the picco or make the connection beams unbreakable. for the front id join the hood (which is also missing) and fenders to form some sort of clamshell, ive done this before for a unfished drag mod i made and it wasnt hard.
Id suggest reworking the body for the Mcpherson suspension cuz it doesnt properly mount (modelwise) the rear suspension also jiggles under looad.

hope this criticism helps in inproving the mod :p

dont mind the haters, your mod is good !!

Another horrible example of you rushing mods just to make content about it. This thing looks hideous and feels like a poorly made automation mod.

Even though this is your full car mod. The concept is good, and the design is alright, but it need some work. Unfortunately, the execution is pretty bad. Improper driver and passenger door trigger placement. It doesn't have interior door handle. The door wont even close sometimes. The rear decklid closes instantly when opening it; you have to open it multiple times to finally open it (+ lack of proper rear hinges). When equipping the vented decklid, there's no vents showing from the inside. There's no key for the decklid, but lazily implemented license plate with a plate holder. Improper placement of windshield wipers, and ignition. The entire body (except the front doors and decklid) are in one piece. There's no frunk latch, front fenders and frunk cannot be separated. Jbeam spikes and deformed oddly whenever it crashed or pulled off. Improper windshield damage model and when equipping the F8 engine model; it fell to the ground. You need to take a lot of time when modding. There's reasons why mods can take alot of time because it need to be perfected in order to be released into public. You have good concepts and ideas, but when putting it in game. You rushed so many things such as jbeam, which ends up into a messy and buggy release in repo. Please consider this whenever you do modding next time. Thank you

it looks like a blob fish and i love it

I'm sorry, but the mod is very poorly made and needs a lot of work.
While it's admittedly fun to drive, it runs out of oil pretty easily. The 3D model overall needs more work (the rear number plate is literally floating), there are shading issues in a few spots, and the crash physics are pretty much awful.

Could get more rear/side cooling given that it has an air-cooled engine, keep the quality up!

Congrats with your first car mod. It's better than I expected with decent crash physics. Rear end reminds me of 300 SL

Great!

Not bad, but the doors don't close
