Released RK's Highly Customizable Engine (Now V8!) 4.2.2

I mean like a F1 style sound, and about the V12, like another V12.

 

Changing/adding new sounds isnt that easy sadly

 

Really love this mod! Its basically the first mod i install ever when a new update is released!
Btw maybe a suggestion or 2 for ideas? What about adding transfer cases aswell? Being able to choose RWd, FWD, AWD or even 4WD for all cars? (I tried manually doing this by editing some jbeam files with copying the transfer cases of different cars to another but only some do work, some cause instability issues or dont get connected somehow,(pretty much a noob in beamng modding) same for the compression ratios. Couldnt get those working (petrol compression for diesel engines are otherwise).)
Maybe some more types of engines? A V12 diesel for example, they exist for i know, or LPG engines or fuel tanks? W12 and W16 but they probably need new sounds.. Rotary engines definatly would be awesome xD Not sure if EV or PHEV cars would add much difference.. but could be added. Hell why no motorcycle engines? i2 or one cylinder engines!

Maybe some customizable tank or plane engines? Or an oldschool i8 engine? Jet powered engines? (Could be an addon attachment for other engines thou)
An i3 diesel engine? Just because diesel xD

Anyway great mod! Good to see that this one still is getting updates! Keep up the great work! Would love to see more updates (and content)!

 

Not bumping or anything, but could you add a secondary water pump for all engines so that the car (any car that I choose) can have that wonderful whooshing sound when I start up the car? (i.e. like on the Toyota 1GR-FE V6s that I hear every single day?) If so, then thank you.

 

Adding a new sound to it would be hard. But i could add a second water pump just as a option which makes the cooling better

The problem is i can't make new, good sounds for engines, so I'm bounded with the existing engine sounds.

About the tranfercases, i started something like that, also with customizable transmissions, but then i got carried away with my own car i started to create. But right now, i haven't worked on anything for a while. But i will start to work on it again in the future

 

Is this mod still being worked on? I assume so but no new updates for a bit..

Currently I'm not working on any beamng mod, but there will be updates for this mod. Maybe if i have time and motivation i could try to add a new diesel engine.

 

Also, when you make the RPM higher on the engines, at a certain point the sound doesn't change, for example I set the max RPM to 12K, the sound stays the same from 8K RPM to 12K, is there any reason and way to fix this?

 

It's shouldn't be exactly the same. It should get a bit higher at higher rpms. But the main sounds aren't made for such high rpms originally.

 

Yeah, but like at about 8K RPM most engines it goes the exact same tone, no change, if you want I can send a video.

 

Hey RK, I think I noticed a small issue with the Diesel engines. The turbo blowoff sound doesn’t work with them, and also, they don’t have the options to do afterfire tuning and ignition timing tuning on the ECU either.

 

yeah send me a video. but i guess thats normal
--- Post updated ---

Are you sure the blowoff sounds doesn't work on diesels when you selected one?
well afterfire and ignition timing on diesels doesn't exist. but i know that alot of people still want the feature to tune the engine curve with the variable ignition timing tuning. I will look what i can do on the diesels for that

 

Aight, I am gonna make the video, also, when I select the camshaft stage 4 agressive, the RPM fluctuates at idle like 900 to 1400 ish without touching throttle, is this normal?

 

yeah it is. a agressive high stage camshaft always makes the idle unbalanced. You can work against it with a harmonic balancer or use a less agressive camshaft.

 

Yeah, for me at least. I'm guessing it works on your end.

Also, I didn't know diesels were like that, but then again it's still nice to have since this doesn't have to be 100% realistic

 

one of not many which say "doesn't have to be 100% realistic" but i agree. Maybe i could try to rename it to "injection map" for the diesels. Would be kinda realistic. I keep that in my mind and when i work again on the mod i try to add it

 

hey love the mod i just have a question im not sure if its the transmission or the torque converter but it just slips when i floor it even with high stall i tried all of them and i guess its just to much power even tho its barely pushing 800

 

Finally after trying a few engines, I have discovered it could be the flat plane crankshaft? Might want to try yourself as I am bouta hop off. Video Attached.

 

is there any way if you can make the very customizable ECU go over 16k RPM?

 

No
