    I asked a good friend of mine to make it using two different mods as the only mod for an S60R out there was the super inaccurate Forza Motorsport 4 model. Took that and adapted a V70R mod's front to it alongside depending on quite a few other mods. It's by no means great, though, but it's good enough for a personal thingy.

    I think it looks pretty good thought to be honest, would love to drive around in that car.

    Update Released! Download Link On First Post.
    新版本已发布,链接在首个回复帖底部

    2024.9.1 Fix
    1. Improved and fixed misspelled words on highway signs
    纠正了高速路牌上的拼写错误,并改善了些观感
    2. Added snow cover for most buildings and objects
    为多数房屋、杂物和其它物体添加了积雪
    upload_2024-9-1_16-48-41.png upload_2024-9-1_16-48-48.png
    3. Added several houses inside the forest (no pic, you'll find them)
    添加了几座森林中的小房子(没放图,你很容易就能找到)
    4. Ajusted asphalt road groundmodel slightly to have a little more grip
    略微调节了沥青路面的groundmodel属性,稍稍增加了抓地力
    5. Other small changes
    其他小变动

    I am very new to modeling and I have not focused much on performance and optimization. The snow covers have many polygons (I made LOD though) and the map contains many lights (especially at night). If you have performance problems or other issues please tell me, and I'll see what I can do. Thanks!
    我刚刚开始学习建模(就大概一两周之前),而且我在制作地图中没有太多关注优化。新加的积雪层面数不少(不过我做了LOD),而且地图有不少光源(尤其是晚上)。如果你有异常卡顿等优化问题,或者是其他问题,请告诉我,我想办法看看怎么解决。感谢!

    I Love the map, its amazing, i love snowy terrain and challenges,
    I just want to report a weird bug, it's like some snow flakes mess up the textures (im not sure ifbits the flakes), every few seconds something swipes across the display making every glass texture transparent, the taillight become transparent, the windows, anything that is glass, only in the exterior camera, i have tried safe mode and it's still there.

    Beamng ver. 0.33.2

    Hi! Thanks for enjoying this map!
    As for the graphical bug, I tried to replicate it and I'm sure it has something with Vulkan as I encountered this problem in Vulkan but not in DX11. I have also got glass flickering problems on other maps when using Vulkan.
    Currently I cannot do anything about this because when in Vulkan mode, my game keeps crashing randomly some time after I load in maps, and I cannot even get into the World Editor. You can temperarily use DX11 and let's see if devs could fix the problem in future updates.

    I accidentally delete the collision mesh when editing the model. I have added it back and it behaves normally now.

    idk if this is caused by another mod but does anyone else has this weird bug? only happened when i downloaded the newest version
    basically random no texture trees
    Edit: no map mods are causing the issue, i am not a beamng map creator but im pretty sure it comes from the forest section
    --- Post updated ---
    oh my god i found the dumbest reason why.
    i updated the OLD polar expressway and both had conflict which made the trees from the original convert to the revamp

    Yeah you should delete any old version of Polar Expressway (both original one by @essej818 and the edited ones made by me) before using the newest version. I did not change the internal name of this map and different versions will be likely conflicting with each other.
    BTW no-texture trees springing up in the map is somewhat hilarious XD
