    Summary: Adds commonly used performance Honda engines, currently to the Del Sol, all with 5-6 tuned variants as well as fully customizable transmissions. Includes custom sounds for each tune. Aimed at the tuner crowd who likes to get the performance of their car juuust right. If you see me playing BeamNG on my Steam profile, I am always broadcasting, so feel free to drop by and check out what I'm currently working on :)

    Progress - Planned replica/recreations (in the order I plan on doing them):
    Honda:
    S1|S / T1|S / T2|S / T3|S / NA1|S / NA2|S / NA3|S / TRANS / ECU / MDL / TXR / JBEAM - K20A
    S1|S / T1|S / T2|S / T3|S / NA1|S / NA2|S / NA3|S / TRANS / ECU / MDL / TXR / JBEAM - B18C
    S1|S / T1|S / T2|S / T3|S / NA1|S / NA2|S / NA3|S / TRANS / ECU / MDL / TXR / JBEAM - H22A7
    S1|S / T1|S / T2|S / T3|S / NA1|S / NA2|S / NA3|S / TRANS / ECU / MDL / TXR / JBEAM - F22C1
    S1|S / T1|S / T2|S / T3|S / NA1|S / NA2|S / NA3|S / TRANS / ECU / MDL / TXR / JBEAM - J35Y4
    S1|S / T1|S / T2|S / T3|S / NA1|S / NA2|S / NA3|S / TRANS / ECU / MDL / TXR / JBEAM - B16B
    S1|S / T1|S / T2|S / T3|S / NA1|S / NA2|S / NA3|S / TRANS / ECU / MDL / TXR / JBEAM - H23
    S1|S / T1|S / T2|S / T3|S / NA1|S / NA2|S / NA3|S / TRANS / ECU / MDL / TXR / JBEAM - K20A/24 (K24 with K20A head)

    Nissan:
    S1|S / T1|S / T2|S / T3|S / NA1|S / NA2|S / NA3|S / TRANS / ECU / MDL / TXR / JBEAM - SR-20DET Blacktop
    S1|S / T1|S / T2|S / T3|S / NA1|S / NA2|S / NA3|S / TRANS / ECU / MDL / TXR / JBEAM - RB-25DET-NEO

    Toyota:
    S1|S / T1|S / T2|S / T3|S / NA1|S / NA2|S / NA3|S / TRANS / ECU / MDL / TXR / JBEAM - 2JZ-GE/GTE
    S1|S / T1|S / T2|S / T3|S / VVT|S / NA2|S / NA3|S / TRANS / ECU / MDL / TXR / JBEAM - 1UZ-FE

    BMW:
    S1|S / T1|S / T2|S / T3|S / VVT|S / NA2|S / NA3|S / TRANS / ECU / MDL / TXR / JBEAM - BMW S85B50

    Note: Models and textures will only come once the coding for the engine has been completed.

    Legend:
    Light Green = Complete, released
    Yellow = Being worked on, unreleased
    Dark Green = Nearly done, released
    Red ​= Not started, not being worked on, unreleased
    Black = Started, not being worked on, unreleased

    Video (Old) (Props to SoHigh00 for making the Del Sol, which inspired this mod):


    Notes for the initial beta release: For the factory engine setups to work properly, you must first select "Empty", THEN the engine you would like to try out the factory tune of (this is due to the slots sharing slotnames, so the game just keeps whatever you had selected prior to changing your engine). Differentials have been moved from the front suspension to the transmission sub-menu under engine.

    Installation instructions:
    Step 1: Download the latest version of the Honda Del Sol mod by SoHigh00 and install it to your mods directory. (You should have a file structure as follows: mods/vehicles/DelSol/<files>)
    Step 2: Download the latest version of this mod and install it the same way, when asked to overwrite the four files click yes. (materials.cs, the custom_sounds.lua, F suspension and the stock B16. The latter two were only modified to move the differential from the suspension to the transmission)
    Step 3: Start your game and enjoy.

    Changelog:
    8/19/15 0.1: Initial beta 0.1 release.
    8/19/15 0.11: Fixed the tuning slot on the K20A, added clutches capable of withstanding the highest torque generated by these engines, added the TRX 8-speed Dual Clutch Transmission, and introduced an initial ECU system allowing for customization of engine redlines (for better or for worse, depending on engine). This is currently only implemented on the J35Y4.
    8/20/15 0.12: Fixed the final drive on the J35Y4. Added ECU customization to K20A, as well as adjusted the stock and t1-3 power curves. Each engine with the ECU modification also has proper automatic shifting implemented.
    8/20/15 0.12b: Forgot to package the K20A Stage 3 Tune/Turbo sounds, this is now fixed. Thank you DreamsAndMelody for informing me of this!
    8/20/15 0.12c: Slightly modified the fixed K20A sounds.
    8/23/15 0.13: Implemented ECU for B18C, as well as adding ESC, TC and ABS customization to the ECU. There are also multiple ABS profiles you can choose, varying the amount of braking interference the ABS system is allowed. Reworked torque curves for the B18C, and added a Stage 3 Turbo tune.
    8/23/15 0.13a: Quick B18C ECU fixes.
    8/23/15 0.15: Implemented ECUs for F22C1 and H22A7, and fixed slight naming convention error with the B18C ECUs. All ECUs are now implemented.

    Please don't redistribute any part of this modification without prior permission from yours truly, Sykriss.
    Please report any bugs, inconsistencies, or any other suggestions/feedback in this thread and I will be glad to be of assistance! Thanks :)

    Re: Honda K20A Replica Engine, more coming soon

    Just finished up the JDM B18C... I'm a K series kinda guy but this came out reeeeal good, imo :D



    - - - Updated - - -

    Welp, so much for this. At least until someone can figure out why all my sounds suddenly stopped working - now, for whatever reason, instead of my hand crafted sounds playing, the default engine sound is playing for every engine I've built. And I've checked the files; 96khz and mono, all of them, the path to the sounds hasn't changed, neither has the sound profiles (which, according to the console, ARE LOADING CORRECTLY!), nor have the sounds.lua - NOTHING! And everything I do won't fix it. I've literally reinstalled my game trying to fix this and at this point, I'm too frustrated to continue working. I'm going to go to sleep, and I really hope someone has a theory as to why they aren't working. I am absolutely stumped.

    Edit: Good news. I just woke up, and noticed I'd made a backup on my desktop of the first version of the mod I made. I copied over all the new files in the broken version to that backup zip, tried it out and for whatever reason, that fixed it. So let the progress continue! Next up: The H22A4. Once I complete the H22A7 and F22C1, I'll release a beta version for you guys to test :D

    Hmm, I don't know. It's most likely a bug. You may have to ask a game dev (gabe, ljfhutch)

    Re: Replica Engines: Honda K20A, B18C, more coming soon!

    Little update: Pretty much finished the H22A7, still kinda messing with the sounds but it's pretty much done. I've also implemented customizable transmissions, so now you can choose from a variety of real world clutches, gearboxes and differentials. I'm not sure if I should allow combinations that wouldn't be possible in real life, e.g. K series transmission on a B series motor; would you guys like to be able to do this, or no? Anyways, here's a video. :p

    Who says I pirated it? I signed up to the site on a different steam account than my primary, since it said that my email was already registered to an account on this site (which I can't get access to).

    Contact support, they should be able to aid rectifying this error.

    I just purchased it on this account; see here: http://steamcommunity.com/id/Sesshomaru23211/games/?tab=all

    Still not seeing the badge on my username, though.

    Edit: Nevermind, logged out and back in again. Would really appreciate some actual feedback on my mod now, thank you very much :p

    Re: Replica Engines: Honda K20A, B18C, H22A7, F22C1, J35Y4... - More coming soon!

    Bit of an update: Completely finished the F22C1 engine, and have been working on swapping the Ibishu V6 into the Del Sol to serve as a J35Y4 until my Blender skills improve. It has been a learning experience, but here is what I have:

    screenshot_00000.png

    No video this time since I haven't made the sounds yet. Any and all feedback would be greatly appreciated! :)

    - - - Updated - - -

    Quite a few tutorials, a bit of frustration, and a couple brews later, and I'm left with this:

    screenshot_00001.png

    The textures need some work (obviously) but I'm not exactly a modeler or a texturer, so work with me a bit here :p I was hoping I'd be able to find a decent top-down picture of the engine cover to use as a texture, but I couldn't find any. Would really like to get some feedback...

    - - - Updated - - -

    Decided I'd also try my hand at modelling an intake since the BeamNG v6 model's intake is quite different from the J35s. Running into some slight shading issues, not entirely sure what's going on with that. I really need to lrn2texture better :p

    screenshot_00002.png

    Some feedback would be seriously appreciated.. over 700 views and four replies from others, half of which were people accusing me of pirating the game :/

    Good stuff. I like the amount of research that's going into the engine's performance.

    Thanks man, I appreciate it. I intend on making the performance as close to real-world as I can get given Torque3ds capabilities. The beta release has gotten a bit de-railed with releasing the beta due to me delving into modelling the V6 parts, but I should be able to release it later on tonight, including the first four Inline 4s as well as the default-modeled J35Y4 and all the accompanying parts.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Re-did the engine cover model and added ignition coils:

    screenshot_00003.png

    Really hoping to get a beta out to you guys tonight, I mainly just need to do the V6 sounds and it'll be ready :D

    - - - Updated - - -

    Aaaaand the sounds broke again. I would love to know why this happens, I literally just added another sound entry to custom_sounds.lua, referenced it in my J35 .jbeam and suddenly every custom sound for this vehicle is now broken. Even after reverting to an old materials.cs... These kinds of things are very frustrating because I have no idea why they happen, and fixing them is generally random in how it's accomplished. Sigh... :confused:

    Two seconds later: Discovered that my master audio was turned down. I am officially an absolute retard. Cheers.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Beta 0.1 has been released! Please report any bugs or inconsistencies to me and I will be glad to assist you.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Updated to 0.11, see changelog in OP. Two new clutches, fixed K20A tuning and customizable ECUs for the J35Y4 (the rest coming in the next update or two).

    - - - Updated - - -

    50+ downloads between the initial release and 0.12 and not a single person gave any feedback.. Is it good? Bad? I have no idea what you guys think of it if you don't tell me... I've spent quite a bit of time and effort creating this, the least you guys could do is tell me what you think :(

    Thanks, I appreciate the kind words. It just bothers me that there are many who have downloaded it and not a single one has given any feedback, kind of makes it hard to determine what direction I should take with the mod and what people think of it. I've been considering renaming some of the parts to make their performance effects more obvious, such as listing final drives for differentials, or gearings for gearboxes, but I don't know whether or not I should do this as nobody has said anything about it. :|

    I have downloaded it, and I love it! I think the addition of engines is something that isn't as popular as it should be, and I think you did great on both the modeling, and the sound!

    Thanks man, that really means a lot and helps with motivation to continue working on this. As is, nobody seemed like they wanted the mod (but you, to be honest! :p) and I was getting a bit discouraged, but I shall truck on and finish up with the ECUs and better automatic transmissions on the rest of the engines, hopefully by the end of the night.

    Edit: This actually leaves me with a good idea. What engine(s) DO you guys want to see? Not only Honda, but any brand. I plan on expanding this to many different brands of engines (over time, of course; I just started with Honda since I'm a Honda guy :p), and finding out what engines you guys would like to see would definitely help me with prioritizing which ones I should do. So let me hear your opinions!

    Re: Replica Engines 0.12: Honda K20A, B18C, H22A7, F22C1, J35Y4... - More coming soon!

    Hey Sykriss, I downloaded this amazing engine mod a few days ago and love it. Though there are a few minor things. IDK whether or not I'm the only one with this problem but when I select any of the tunings(not the turbo just the tuning ones) there is no engine sound on any of the engines. The other thing I have noticed is that the 8 speed Dual Clutch and the 6 speeds only will go to 5 gears. other then that this is by far on of my favorite mods, and its really nice someone make an in depth mod for a Honda. But once again these small issues may just be something I'm doing and not the mod itself. SO I will use the newest one and if the problems are resolved ill let you know

    Probably due to the fact that alot of guys just used to open a default engine, add a 0 or 2 to each entry in the torque curve, release it shoddily (overwriting base content etc etc) and call that a mod.
    Whereas here we have a large selection of engines quite nicely thought out instead.
