    Nice to see a new modder out on the forums! This is sure something to try, MG isn’t something I usually see people take interest in.

    Wish you the best of luck in the future!

    Wow! It looks very well done from the pictures. Congratulations!

    Personally, I prefer rebranded cars for the game (Soliad Astor maybe :rolleyes:), and would also love to see the left steering wheel, however this is a strong candidate for my first real life car in Beamng. I will test later.

    real life car mods aren't allowed on the repo, plus the model isn't mine

    even if he would do that, he doesn't own the model he used = he can't release it on repo

    even though this mod is missing some details, it's still good enough to make fun with.

    Oh boy there is a fair amount of issues with this.
    First of all, non double sided materials combined with the fairly lackluster deformation.
    upload_2022-12-14_18-29-40.png
    Weird panel gaps and other model issues
