    Hello guys,
    Would it be possible to make a few more right hand drive cars as they all seem to be left hand drive and living in England all the cars are right hand drive( appart from a couple odd ones)
    Thanks,
    Luke

    The pigeon in the next update will be right hand drive. The ford ranger mod is right hand drive and a few other upcoming mods are too.

    My Alpha-MD10 project is right-hand drive. Still a fair way off from completion, though.

    It literally takes 10-15 minutes to convert a LHD car to RHD in BeamNG. Just flip the dash, move the steering wheel, pedals, gauges, mess with textures, and move the camera node over. If you're a perfectionist, you can also flip the wipers over.

    Just take the interior of the car in a 3d program and flip it to the other side, I think it's called mirror or rotate special or something?

    Or simply be fair to the right hand drivers who have had to put up with left handed cars thus far

    That could be something easy. Might give it a shot.

    If it was up to me id make every car in the game right and left handed driving, simply for the fact that its fun to view crashes from different angles

    Why don't you do it yourself?

    Just saying "it's not hard" doesn't help in any way.

    The gist of it is that you would have to import the .dae for the model into blender/3d modelling software. Mirror the dashboard, move the steering wheel, pedals and dials. Sort out the normal maps as per usual, alter the texture mapping and re-export to .dae for BeamNG. Then you would also have to edit the JBeam to account for the relocated dials, pedals and wheel.

    Its one of those things where if you are familiar with the modelling process for BeamNG, it isn't hard. The only geometry tweak is pretty much just a mirroring of some parts and relocation of others. If you arent familiar with modelling, then its pretty difficult.

    So you guys do realize that all the vehicles gabester has made so far are based on the North American Domestic Market, right? That is the primary focus as of yet. Although having it as an option for European imports would be alright.

    I'm pretty sure that when OP posts, it isn't considered the bump you are so known for calling out.
