WIP Beta released Gavril Vendetta 0.8

STICH666 · Mar 22, 2018

Great work so far! Drives like an overweight 70's "sports" car should lol. The only things I can say is obviously the rings around the interior gauges need a bit higher of a polycount, the exterior camera is offset to the left kinda like in GTAIV and the jbeam can act funky sometimes but this is still in beta so I won't fault it even a little.

I am impressed with this Corvette-inspired mod! This is nicely made throughout for a beta mod. Not going to pinpoint issues (as they have been identified already by others), but few mods can match the amount of work and effort put into this one, especially when it will be updated in the future.

Neilogical made a video for this mod; it's worth checking out!

The camera part is known, and there is already a fix posted at the beginning of this discussion page. Please go through the effort of reading the known bugs, before listing the ones you've discovered.

What is the map you use for these screenshots?

If you could pop the update in for camera fix it would be good instead of a few years waiting on a big update.

Temporarily, just do this.

The camera is indeed misaligned, it was a very easy fix, I just removed the X offset
Replace these parts in the "sporter_bodytest" jbeam file with my code (just zeros out the X offset) starting at line 44
Code:
"cameraChase":{
        "distance":5.5,
        "distanceMin":2,
        "defaultRotation":{"x":0,"y":-12,"z":0},
        "offset":{"x":0.0, "y":0.15, "z":1.2},
        "fov":65,
     },
     "cameraExternal":{
        "distance":5.5,
        "distanceMin":2,
        "offset":{"x":0.0, "y":0.15, "z":0.4},
        "fov":65,
     },

Essentially all you need to do is set the X coordinates to 0.0. Somehow they got discombobulated along the way and never got fixed.

Anyways, that brings me onto my next issue.
There have been TONS of suggestions of issues thrown at the wall over the last few pages, and I am sure, if the internet has taught me anything, many more to come. So... to help streamline this a little bit, I am going to try something that is just to help me identify and correct issues. This might work really well, or it might blow up in my face. I am unsure, but I am at least willing to give it a try.

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Vdb8kqN2F6KKl1kr61FWlip5QmhTbSBLzXws8W0IvQQ/edit?usp=sharing

This is a link to a Google Doc I started. What I am attempting to do is just make a list of the things that I have to fix. I currently added the most popular suggestions to the list that I need to do. The idea here is that anyone with that link can edit this document. So I am asking all of you to try this out with me and go in there and add in anything that needs to be fixed in the Vendetta. If you were proactive and have already figured out a way to fix your issue (like with the post of the camera code above) if you could post that in with your suggestion as well as I did with the camera suggestion, that will also help out massively.

Again... this might work out really well... or this might blow up in my face. If anything I am at least willing to try it. Also... IF THE IDEA IS ALREADY IN THE LIST, rather than suggest it again... put a backslash after it like this...

Camera needs oriented correctly /////

That lets me know how many other people also saw the issue and in what order they need fixed in. Obviously, it goes without saying, the easier the fix, the faster it will get fixed. However, if there are several massive issues that require reworking some of the JBeam, this will let me know the order I should attack those in. The more tallies, the more pressing the issue.

I ask you to please refrain from going through the list and throwing a tally on every option... this is going on a trust system here, but I am just gonna say try to limit yourself to 3 tallys. I know some of you won't... but if most of us follow that rule, then this might help me massively.

And with that...

Let the games begin

Can you just correctly brand this car? Or at least make the real logo as a alternative as Mk4 Supra's author did.

POST UPDATED 3/20/18!

TO FIX CAMERA OFFSET ISSUE, COPY THE ATTACHED REPLACEMENT .JBEAM FILE INTO THE MOD. PENDING HOTFIX 0.76.1 WILL INCLUDE THE FIX OFFICIALLY.

FROM MODS PAGE; At the bottom of my post, I've attached the skins UV layout. If you wish to make a skins pack for this, please follow the rules for making them as if you were making the skins for official content.

Soon

The Gavril Vendetta is pretty much BeamNG's best equivalent to a C3 Corvette so far (There have been one or 2 low quality mods I've seen, but nothing that truly tries to emulate the experience of a C3.)

The front suspension is a highly modified version of the Barstow's suspension geometry (Same concept, heavy scaling and reworking to fit the smaller size of this car's suspension.) The rear, features the Corvettes signature Transverse Leafspring (semi) independent rear suspension.

View attachment 392556 View attachment 392560

The astute among you will notice that the rear spring of the car is a bit flat; This is being worked on and will be fixed before it's submitted to the mods page.

The car, while sharing the styling of the C3, has some notable differences;

The rear, as you can see above, doesn't have exhaust pipe extensions at the bottom; I opted to go with traditional pipes underneath. Obviously this poses a safety hazzard the way it's placed, but theoretically, the suspension shouldn't be able to move more than an inch when up in the air, so it works out just fine, especially with where they fall underneath the leafspring.

The interior, is rearranged;

View attachment 392559

Since I pulled the gauges from the Barstow, I eliminated a gauge since I didn't have it in the UVs.

The front, features 2 distinct grilles and headlights;

This is Traditional, raw C3.

View attachment 392561

This, is the Facelift. This is a more racing inspired look, and is featured on the racing configurations.

View attachment 392562
Note the lack of a true front bumper; You started to see these go away up until they were brought back in force via regulations.

As for custom specialized parts;

You get 2 hoods;

View attachment 392563 View attachment 392564

You get a (JBeamed and functional) chinspoiler;

View attachment 392570

Fender flares, side pipes, along with a simple racing livery;

View attachment 392569

A (functional) roll-cage;

View attachment 392568

And you get your choice of either the 423 or 532 for racing engines. Also you get a full loadout of optional suspension components (Standard type, Offroad type, Aftermarket coilover swap (rear,) and Racing. Each major type uses a different suspension JBeam to make each one a tad bit more specialized than official vehicles.

There may be other parts, though if there are, I'll leave that for you to re-discover.

There are missing names and/or spelling mistakes; I will fix this before release.

Your factory configs will come like this;
NOTE; All engines are V8s, pulled from the Barstow.

Base;
Your choice of a 291 or 353, both with either a 3 speed auto or 4 speed manual. All feature basic components, rides on standard tires on 15x7'' steel wheels, and spans the entire production run.

Luxe;
Your choice of a 291, 353, or 423, both with either a 3 speed auto or 4 speed manual. Features standard suspension components, a luggage rack, a vinyl landau top, thin whitewalls on 15x7'' steel wheels, and spans only the pre-facelift models.

RoadSport Performance package;

Your choice of a 291, 353, or 423, with mandatory 4 speed manual. Features all the same stuff as the Luxe model, aside from heavy duty suspension components and an LSD standard. Spans the entire production run, replacing the Luxe models in the facelift years.

Corporate Office Special;

Technically not a factory config, but this is essentially the factory-racer in street clothing. 423, heavy duty suspension, and an LSD are standard equipment. This is a rare config, with only 200 ordered via a loophole a special Gavril Dealership exploited to get factory-race spec'd cars from a company that otherwise didn't do this until the Barstow's later years. Runs only the first year of production.

Swap the tires for Civetta racing wheels and slicks, and add a roll cage, and you have a track ready car.

You will get 3 more configs; A barnfind, an offroad setup, and a race setup.

Not a ton of configs, but otherwise this is a very focused model lineup. Others have been pushing me to do more or add the 423 to more configs, but I'm standing my ground on this decision.

PROGRESS:

JBeam; 98%

Model; 100% for main model, 75% for racing accessories.

Textures; 100% for main model, 75% for racing accessories.

Other fun stuff; Idk%

I may have missed stuff from the old post, but this covers most of what you need to know about the mod.
If you have any questions, post them below.

Follow the forum rules, Don't spam, Stay on topic, or else your posts may mysteriously vanish by the power of Nadeox1's animated profile picture. Several posts have already disappeared, don't let yours be one of them!

TLDR.? It isn't ready for release yet Wait a bit, it still needs a lot of work there bud

Doubt he'll do it, as the car doesn't have "proper" Corvette parts (Barstow interior, Barstow engine etc.)

So this happens whenever I spawn the car. Or try to at least

That’s a form of piracy, please consider purchasing the game.

I can make real badges as a forum-only add on, but that’s about it. If that’s going to make things better for people, It’s relatively easy to do
