Cancelled ETK SX(R)

Hello,

I've made enough progress I think to post a WIP mod.

So here it is!

For now, this is a contribution only thread. Please post only contributions to the mod or discussion.

That means no "OMG THIS MOD SUCKS" or "ZOMG THIS MOD IS THE SHIZ" or "WHY DID YOU CANCEL THE SUZUKI?!?!" please.

Bugs that I probably don't know about, retunes and tweaks are more than welcome. Or even new parts or files, now that I think about it.

Thank you,
-Ky

P.S. If you have a major contribution, or wish to talk at length, please private message me.

To Do List

 

The biggest problem for me is that The FPS drops down when it spawns in. Otherwise, keep working on It, looks great

 

this when finished has the potential to be stellar. Looks like a simple jbeam, very good work!

 

It's a good start to making a car, this has potential to being very nice when finished.

For people who want to see what the mod is first, this is what it looks like:

It's a work in progress, please don't post "IT HAS NO BODY PANELS IOYDFSHKJA!!!" or anything like that, it'll upset the community.

 

How much does your fps drop when you load the car? For how long? What is your hard drive?

Would it be alright if I embedded those photos into the main post?

 

It Drops to About 10 FPS on ECU, and My computer specs are down below. Its Not a low cost computer. And with a Normal car on ECU It never drops FPS.

 

Looks good from what I can see in @BJCreeper 's photos.

Is this a scratch made model, heavily reworked official vehicle or is it from a 3rd party model site?
Either way, intrigued to see this finished

 

I liek it alot, also my FPS is fine even with cK's graphics killer.

I have a comment about the rear suspension. As of right now when the suspension get load the rear camber goes positive=top of wheel leans out. Theres acouple of ways to adjust that.

1. The upper control arm should be shorter then the lower. or
2. The mounting point in the rear subframe for the upepr arm should be further in. or
3. The mounting point on the hub/spindle should be further out, compensating for the length of the upper arm.

Example:


Ive also added a bad pic of yours.

Much love. Such wow.

 

looks very cool hope it gets a full release soon @ky13harbor9

 

Nice, a 959 lookalike?

 

looks a small bit like an old Porsche

 

This mod seems really neat, I like how it's going so far. If you ever need help with suspension or engine tuning or even sketch art, I'm your guy.

Speaking of suspension, it's so soft that you could dump the car on its ass just by dumping the clutch into first xD

 

Maybe because it is based on/is a 959.

 

It's a scratch model heavily based on a 959.

Excellent info, Brother_Dave. I know the model may not look right, but if you check the JBeam it should have that property one way or the other. Perhaps I got it backwards

 

Need any exterior re-design help?
And just remind that according to the "old ETK naming rule" this one should be called as "2800tsx"

 

Looks good I've always wanted a prosche in Beam.

 

I don't wanna argue, but ETK more or less is based of BMW, Audi, Mercedes-Benz. I think ETK sound a little weird for a Porsche based vehicle. But further it looks really nice, haven't spotted any bugs so far.

 

the brands are based on a few different real brands, and considering there are no other European brands its probably the best bet.

 

Actually I couldn't agree more. I'm just not sure what to call it.

I'm not familiar with that rule since I've been on hiatus for so long. When I came back there was a plethora of new cars.

Thanks for putting that into proper wording

 

look up common German names and find one that sounds cool
