in the special video I noticed 2 things The GPS is missing The lights turn on in the middle of the video why ?
They say they also try and and keep backwards compatibility, so I doubt that. Although, in semantic versioning, V1.0 should (but not always) break the API, which includes mods.
File system means how the game internally finds and reads/writes files, not a change in folder structure, so no, mods will be fine.
I know that it isn't a suggestion thread, but adding a in game painjob editor could be possible I think?
Yes, it looks like that is a possibility now. All they would have to do would be to make an application that works in game that can paint the skins, then apply those changes to the texture. Though it does look like once you paint something, it won't be possible to go back, since in the video it shows them overwriting the old texture file.
Oh, interesting. Also, good to know that this won't break every single vehicle mod that we have. However...is there a potential for some new engines/engine swaps for some vehicles? I know I mentioned this before, but I'd like to know if these are happening, or have been completely forgotten. In February 2015, gabester mentioned this: This still hasn't happened yet. I assume that because of the new sound system that we have, that this may become something that would come in the next update or two to promote the variety of new sounds that we have available, and to help improve the 200BX's driftability. After all, it would have sounded quite weird to have a V8 200BX sound just like an L4 200BX, so that may be why it still hasn't come yet, right? Also, the ETKs still seem to be missing some engines, as well, as discovered by @needforsuv: Surely, these engines couldn't have come out yet, either, as they would have been in the same situation in sounds as the V8 200BX (as well as requiring modeling and JBeam-ing). If these engines come out in the next update (along with configs related to them), I would be totally fine with the lack of a new car for 0.11, as having new engines to play with completely changes how cars behave.
Im also thinking that they held back the etks engines for the same reason also i think we maybe see a update just with new configs engines and so on also the 200bx really needs some new stuff as it seems quite unloved currently
