Onomichi is a coastal city located off the Seto Inland Sea in Hiroshima, Japan. This is a port of the version found in Yakuza 6, which features a condensed version of a section of the town set in the year 2017 (I think). For more info on the real world locations featured in the map, here's the google maps links for the arcade/train tracks and boat dock/ferry area, along with a brilliant set of comparison photos from reddit user u/preparedtodie_. (screenshot by ck) While this map is a fair bit better on the performance than Kamurocho, even in its current unoptimised state, it still contains almost 250 separate models and 1500 materials so the drawcalls and polycounts still aren't entirely friendly to the lowest end PCs. I don't think there will need to be any 16gb ram requirements this time round at least. I have spent the last ~3 weeks straight (a good hour or two every day) just sorting out models for this map, 250 is a very large amount when every single individual one needs a long complicated process to get it in a state that can be ported. More WIP screenshots by CK Big things still to do: Finish PBRing rest of the (important) materials Implementation and updating of CK's map controller magic Night lighting Optimisation Checking through and fixing any outstanding model issues that I've missed Credits: @Car_Killer - Pretty much all the fancy stuff once again, answering all my stupid questions, emotional support @thomatoes50 - Fixing my script thing from the last yakuza map, he hasn't directly helped with this one I just used the script again @DankMemeBunny - Letting me know the map existed in the first place, I've never personally played a yakuza game or anything @! nick - some form of emotional support Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio - original models and stuff For future plans, up next I want to port the underground car park from Yakuza 4 as a showroom, and then probably Okinawa from Yakuza 3 after that. I also want to do Yokohoma but that will require big changes to how BeamNG works for that to ever be possible given that it's a full 4x the everything of this map Estimated release date is in a few weeks time
Looking forward to this. Love the other map, makes for awesome screenshots. take as much time as you need.
it's a small japanese fishing town, why would there be a yacht? there's already lots of fishing boats and the ship from the original game anyway
Agreed, the town it's self is not a tourist type town and isn't focused on tourism, going to that town would be a lot different then going to Tokyo, where they have signs posted in both Japanese and English (mostly just very popular areas in Tokyo though). Pretty much the only places that most people think of in terms of Japan is Tokyo, Kyoto, and Okinawa (My sisters husband was stationed there for a while) along with Hiroshima and Nagasaki which are only vastly known due to WW2 and the U.S. dropping bombs on them. So it really makes no sense to see a yacht in a town that isn't seen as some high-end fancy/tourist area.
