Released American 80's Fullsize Series 2.1

same here, my uncle has a impala wagon

also what computer is that because it reminds me of a TRS 80

 

I think its just a tv but you're right it does look like a trs-80
also if you want a big old American car then try the 1975 for ltd mod

 

Bad news, the improved backward compatibility for Lua mods in the hotfix doesn't help for my mod. Custom Lua scripts still crash the game, for all versions.
I'm affraid they will have to be modified, re-written. I'll keep you informed on the progress.

 

This will take a while wont ?

 

I don't know because i'm depending on a good Lua guy to help me, and i don't know if making all the functionnality will be easy or not, or even if it's just a little syntax issue or a bigger one.

 

Well heres hoping for the best then

 

The mod can work without the Lua though, but i prefer updating the whole thing Some presets are not working properly without the lua and even crashing the game (police cars, and so on)

 

oh dear. NOT THE POLICE CARS, oh now this bank robbery has gotten boring *Gives back money to teller*

 

it sucks this broke. I was halfway through a Beamng 80's car chase series i was making, oh well

 

Here's some minor bugs from my archives. Couldn't double check them now, but I wrote them down after the last mod update.
Custom Cruiser
-no horn
-both cornering lamps turn on with left turn signal
-cornering lamps shine through normal fenders
-rear lights dim when high beams are activated
-cornering lamps are lit when hazards are on, while in
Regency
-they aren't. Which one is correct?
-6-speed drag atm is 8-speed
Chevy Wagons
-two phase brake lights when lights are on

If you have time to fix those, now that you're at it again, maybe make a normal fender option for Delta also.
Cornering lamps were a luxury option at the time as you may know. Always looked a bit weird to me. I owned an ex-diesel 88 Royale with a 307cid for many years and my model didn´t have those. It's been so nice to virtually drive it again, thanks to you.

 

Thanks !
i'll look at these carefully. I also own a Delta 88 Diesel without cornering lights, i forgot all models have them by default, which is weird indeed.
I could add the regular version, fortunatly the hole left in the fender is used only on the base texture but not on the skins, see pictures :


But it will be some editing on all skins to fill this little area on every skins for the Regency and the Delta 88. Considering the amount of them, it's a bit of work .
Not that bad.

 

Could you please model the front half-shafts for stock Regency suspension?

 

It wrong be broken that long, don't worry. It's already fixed here for the main part, just waiting for a friend to look at the Lua scripts. Dev have fixed a lot of loading errors in the hotfix, that were leading to weird parts display.

What do you mean ? Front suspensions are completed and are the same for all models. They are not reproducing the real one closely because jbeam is based on the Moonhawk.

 

While there's an option for a front diff for the standard suspension (not a 3-link, that is), there's no model/texture for the half-shafts, i.e 4x4 drivetrain looks identical to RWD

 

Ah, cool.

 

Ah i get it ! The option was added to have front wheel drive for fun. Indeed it's lacking shaft meshes. i'm not sure i'll spent time to add those shafts, i'm only updating the mod and fix little issues.
But thanks for pointing it

 

Great news for you guys !
thomatoes50 fixed the custom Lua scripts for us, as far as i have tested yet, it's working great. I just have to check all the configs, put on the missing tires, finish the metallic paint option for all cars, and it will be ready for the update. The land boats will be back in a day or two (depending on the repo approval process).

I'll look at other bug fixes but i can't promise i'll add them all for the next update, busy week to come for me. But at least you will be able to play with the mod again quick

 

yes!

 

yes thank you your amazing

 

Can you please add red head lights to codenameldsfullsize?
