So I'm sure most of us have heard of or even played either Stuntman or Stuntman Ignition, two video games on the PS2, PS3, or Xbox 360. If not, you've definitely played the Hustle and Bustle campaign in Beamng. I've been thinking, if it's not too difficult to implement of course, a campaign, or even campaigns, focused around doing stunts for certain movies, such as a 70s detective movie in West Coast, or a Italian Job Knockoff in Italy, or even a Dukes of Hazard parody that takes place in East Coast. It could evolve taking a certain vehicle, such as a Bruckell Moonhawk Sport, Gavril Bluebuck 291 V8 Coupe, Ibishu Covet Custom, etc, and driving through a series of markers that tell you what to do, such as smashing through a object, passing close to a object, jumping off a ramp and landing in a indicated spot, etc. It would be amazing to live out the fantasy of being a stunt driver in the most realistic driving game on the market, though if it's too difficult to implement or not what the developers want from a game, that's perfectly okay, I'm just making a suggestion after all. TLDR: A single campaign or multiple campaigns based off being a stunt driver for various movies, like in Stuntman and Stuntman Ignition.
I remember a legacy community member named Hati suggested this a few years before Hustle and Bustle came out. I don't even remember if campaigns existed at that time, but a Stuntman-inspired action game was a straightforward, attainable idea even back then. Even I gave it a go at one point*. Anyway, with a wealth of cars and maps to choose from, it seems pretty easy to create something like this as a mod. Especially now that we have scriptAI. *If you're reading this, please don't try joining the Studio group. The mod is hideously outdated. I haven't taken in a new member in two years and I still get an update weekly from people wanting to join. The cover art's cool, but there's not much else to see. Trust me.
i only played stuntman ignition once and i sucked at it at least in beamng i will get the satisfaction of realistically abusing my suspension

The major stunt is at the end, where you'll need to stop your car near a cliff edge, reversing at the last second as the Burnside tries to ram you off, ending the Burnside's fun with a cliché cliff dive.

Possible commercials and stunt runs: Rapid Taxi Location: West Coast, USA Vehicle: Gavril Grand Marshal Taxi Description: Race through the streets and narrow alleyways of Belasco city as various other rival taxis try to stop you!

Once both cars bounce off of each other and start to spin, you'll rocket through the gap in between them and cross the finish line.

The Autobello Heist Location: Italy Movie Description: A 1980s remake of a late 1960s cult classic comedy caper film that surprisingly stays true to the original... for the most part.

Using a trio of heavily modified Autobello Piccolinas, the gang use lots of planning, choreographed driving, and determination in order to get the job done. Stunt Runs: Dead End: Vehicle: 1981 Civetta Bolide 350 Description: Play as a retired bank robber as he drives through the Italian countryside, planning how to perform the heist he has planned without getting caught. However, while he's being distracted by his planning, he's failed to realize that the Italian mob has found out about his scheming, and they're not very happy about it. After rounding a blind corner at full speed, you will have to slam your Bolide into a parked excavator, killing the robber and kickstarting the movie. There's no real tricky stunts in this scene, so it's best to treat it more as a time trial with an explosive finale. Follow the Leader: Vehicle: Modified 1965 Autobello Piccolina 130 A (Rally suspension, Tubular front bumper, roll cage, Racing 1.3L F4 engine, rear mounted oil cooler, Autobello Type 1 wheels) Description: After successfully stealing the gold bars and loading them into their cars, the bank robbers will have to preform a lot of choreographed driving in order to out smart and out drive the local Polizia. You will play as the driver of the Blue Piccolina, trying to keep up with your fellow drivers as they race through narrow alleyways, down stairways, and up onto sidewalks to avoid police roadblocks. Since this run, and every run after this, is extremely choreographed, precision will be more important than speed, so focus on trying to keep your car in one piece throughout the run. The tricky stunt is actually in the middle of the run, where you'll need to drive down two sets of stairways without crashing into the back of the other two Piccolinas. Remember to slow down before driving down the stairs so you don't wreck your suspension or oil pan!

Don't worry about driving up the containers, a turbo charger will be installed on your Piccolina in order to increase it's torque for this scene, but we'll keep the engine bay out of shot. Once you drive down the first ramp on the other side, there will be pile of blue and white trash cans you'll need to drive onto in order to reach the next ramp.

The Wheelman V: Redline Location: Italy + West Coast, USA Movie Description: The fifth sequel of a long running series about a legendary wheelman. During this film, the wheelman takes a job that leads him down a rabbit hole focused on human trafficking after saving a young woman he was suppose to deliver to a wealthy client. What follows is a lot of action packed chases with a lot of complex stunts and choreography. Stunt Runs: One Simple Job: Vehicle: Modified 1988 ETK 3000ix (Rally suspension, Stage 2 Performance Long Block, Race Oil Pan, Ultra Light Flywheel, Limited Slip Differential, Silver 15x7 Alder Basketweave wheels) Description: Taking place at the very start of the movie, Russel Greene, a legendary wheelman, helps a group of amateur robbers, who just robbed a bank in Italy, with getting away from the local police. The key stunt happens near the end of the run, where after being chased into Norte, you must gain momentum before using a steep incline as a ramp to jump over some police cars and land on the beach past a railing. Remember to hit about 60mph and aim a tiny bit towards the left so you don't crash into some rocks that are on the beach. Close Call: Vehicle: 2018 Bruckell Bastion Police 5.7 AWD (RWD Conversion) Description: Play as Officer John Kruger as he pursues Russel's ETK though downtown Belasco. This is a fairy easy run, as all you'll need to do is keep up with the ETK and copy some of it's stunts, such a small jumps, some drifts, and driving through traffic. The key stunt is the very last one, where after racing through a narrow alleyway, the ETK will drift infront of a Turboburger Pessima, causing it to slam on it's brakes, blocking the alleyway. All you'll need to do is crash into the Pessima as fast as you can before stopping your car, ending the scene. Desperation: Vehicle: Modified 1988 ETK 3000ix (Same modifications + Stage 2 Turbo kit) Description: After the client found out about Russel saving the woman he payed for, he sends some of his goons in blacked out Bastion Sport GTs after him. Play as Russel as he attempts to outrun all of the goons and get the woman to safety. The final trick is the hardest one you'll face, as you'll need to land a barrel roll over a metal fence and then drive into a empty warehouse. You'll need all the power the ETK has to offer, as you won't have much of a run-up before the ramp, hence why a turbo kit has been added. Trucked Up: Vehicle: 2020 Bruckell Bastion Sport GT 6.5 Description: After helping the woman escape Belasco City and having his precious ETK blown up, Russel hijacks a enemies' Bastion and uses it's GPS system to track down the client, raising hell and destroying as many enemy cars as he can in the process.

Be careful not to hit the ramp too fast or too slow, as the former will have you jump over the truck, and the latter will have you crash into the side of the highway. Stunt Run Previews:
The Grand Finale Location: West Coast, USA Movie Description: It's December 21st, 2012 in Belasco City. At first, it appears to be a normal day; people getting ready for their 9 to 5 jobs, children arriving at school, everything being as boring and dreary as any other day. Then, almost without warning, the ground starts to shake, buildings begin to collapse, and everything goes to Hell. Play the part of 4 random citizens of Belasco City, each trying desperately trying to escape their fates as they fight tooth and nail to escape this doomed city. This movie uses a lot of CGI and green screens, so you won't have to deal with crumbling roads and structures, nor that many obstacles, but you'll have to drive like a mad man in every scenario to make it seem real to the audience. Stunt Runs: Cab Chaos: Vehicle: 1997 Grand Marshal Taxi (Modified) Description: As the ground begins to shake, Franklin Cooper, a 38 year old taxi driver, races into the heart of Belasco city to save his two daughters from their possible eternal slumber. The key stunt is at the very beginning, where after entering the highway, the tollbooths begin to collapse, causing you to swerve into oncoming traffic before swerving back into the normal lane to avoid a oncoming muscle car. You'll need to then line up your car with the dirt embankment ahead of you and use your nitro to jump over a exploding semi truck, landing on a dirt hill on the other side and going onto a freeway on ramp, allowing you to finish the rest of the run. Keep in mind your car will be damaged for the remainder of the run, so your skills will be pushed to it's limit. Bug Out: Vehicle: Unmarked 2004 Gavril Roamer LXT35 Police Package (Modified) Description: After picking up her family from her crumbling apartment, Sarah McConnell, a 28 year old Police Officer, rushes through the panicking streets of Belasco to get to safety. The key stunt is the very last one, where you'll have to jump through a crashed BeaMoving van. Use your nitro and the help of a small ramp to hit the side of the van head on. Just make sure to keep your speed up, otherwise you won't have enough momentum to crash through the van completely, which will ruin the shot. Predetermined Fate: Vehicle: 1988 Civetta Bolide 390GT USDM (Lightly Modified) Description: Play as Vincent Matthews, a famous movie star trying to escape the end times in his classic supercar. There's not really a key stunt to this scene, aside from the end where you'll have to crash into a wrecked flatbed truck, causing your car to roll over violently, sealing Vincent's fate. The best advice I can give you is to try to keep this car under control, as even with the racing slicks you'll be given, this car has a tendency to spin out when pushed to it's limit. Run for the Hills: Vehicle: 1970 Gavril Barstow TrackSport Description: What started off as a normal day for Trevor Cunningham, a 26 year old mechanic, quickly went south as his workplace was swallowed up by the ground, forcing him to quickly make his way to the freeway before it gets clogged up with traffic to make his escape in his old freshly restored muscle car. The key stunt happens at the end, where you'll crash through some barriers and use a ramp to jump over a construction site, along with some wrecked pickup trucks. The key is to keep your speed up to make it over the obstacles, but not so high that you end up landing on the guardrail. Stunt Run Previews:
As another massive Stuntman fan that wishes more people could play it, I understand. I just wanted to make sure you've heard of this mod before. I bet the both of you working together could make it even better, cause I've had a lot of fun with these missions myself. https://www.beamng.com/resources/stunt-missions.23504/updates
