WIP Beta released CJD Special Tunes 3.8

Interesting, when you say custom pickups do you mean configs that you've made or my ones? If its yours its possible that you have the wrong fuel tank (i.e. gasoline tank with a diesel engine or vice versa), or just no fuel (which you can check in the tuning menu), If not then I don't know I stopped having to make fuel tanks because the dev's added their own diesel tank to the pickup.

 

I've isolated the issue a little more. I just loaded the CJD Offroad Special, which spawned with no fuel. Checked the parts: It had a diesel tank. I swithched it to gas, and it worked. Then I loaded up a few more of your mods, which spawned fine.

Then I loaded one of my configs, which is a diesel version of a pickup that was originally gas. Then I switched back to your offroad special, which loaded with a diesel tank.

It looks like, for some reason, your V8 configs aren't automatiucally populating the correct tank. You might have to specify the tank in your config file.

I haven't made anything shareable yet, but I've found that, while switching the engine automatically poplates the Engine subtree with appropriate parts, it doesn't always affect the tank, which is under the Frame tree. It might also make a difference that I switched to a pickup that uses a fuel cell instead of a tank (although you'd think those components would be equivalent).

It made me think of an interesting performance addition to the game though: Realistic behavior from using the wrong fuel.

 

Ah, I see the problem, the 'CJD Special' configs are old configs I created new ones under the name 'CJD Spec' (you may have to look in the save/load menu to find them) its not that the fuel tank is wrong its that I changed what the engine was called so the game cant find it and uses the default 4.5L V8 not my 6.0L diesel V8 like it used too. My bad I thought I removed all the broken configs. This shouldn't be a problem in the future. Thanks.

 

Are there any plans for the off-road transfer cases/differentials on the 1st Gen Pessima?

 

Hmm, I hadn't planned on it, I could add locking differentials, just don't expect it to happen soon, I would like to get all the cars updated with what I have first before adding more stuff or I may never get an update out.

hi!
so ETKC and ETK800 are missing the center diff settings while using cjd's race awd.
it wouldn't be a problem but I have a pikes peak monster ETKC that pushes ~3000hp and if I can't set the front/rear ratio to ~80% rear the torque will twist the front differential and the whole subframe will come of the car

 

Ah, I remember now, I didn't make the race AWD transfer case because there is a bug with the ETK 800's race front differential, it has a variable for the drive ratio that breaks the tuning menu if you use the race adjustable final drive, I meant to make my own front differential as a work around until it was fixed, guess I forgot, I'll make sure to fix that in the next update, thanks for reminding me.

 

so that's why ETK's front subframe twist out of the car when you drop the clutch on a 3000hp engine... It worked when you could set the front/rear ratio to something like 30/70 or 20/80 and with very little load%. so little power got to the front diff so it would not twist the car

 

The 6.0L Diesel Engine don't work.

 

In which car?

Again? really? I'm starting to regret this engine every time I think it works it breaks again. Time to re-make it from scratch, again.

 

Awesome mod - the 7 speed manual is perfect for crazy powerful builds like the one in the image. I've been wondering about something - I have a part called OP brake pads. Are they from this mod?

 

Nope, although I would like to make some.

 

I think that the buggyness is just on your userfolder - they are perfectly fine for me.

 

Glad I could help.
