Variable Turbo for D-series

I've working on my mod which uses BeamNG.drive official car D-series. My idea is to make Turbo charged pickup but I'm not sure how to do it. If someone knows how to, then tell me on comments so that I could make my mod done. You may upload file on your post or explanations.

I'm doing a Diesel I6 Engine mod that includes NA and Turbo versions only at the moment. Turbo is working fine, and I don't mind send you the script but we've moved onto another house and we have everything packed and the gaming room isn't finished, so it can last 2 or 3 days

 

You have slots at top of engine file of pickup (D-series engines are in steamapps\common\beamng\content\vehicles\common.zip).

One of the slots is like this:
["pickup_intake_v8","pickup_intake_v8", "Intake",{"coreSlot":true}],

Intake slot is where supercharger and turbo parts belong to.

So in supercharger/turbo part you need to have information which slot it belongs to, it is like this:
"slotType" : "pickup_intake_v8",

Now in ETKi engine file you can find variable turbo part (steamapps\common\beamng\content\vehicles\etki.zip) you have there also slot where part belongs to, like this:
"slotType" : "etki_intake_3.0",

You take whole variable turbo section from { to } copy it to new file and change that slot type to "pickup_intake_v8", remember also to give part correct name so that it does not conflict with ingame stuff, you need to change name in two places and have unique filename for it.

 

You still need a turbo for the D Series? I can post the file here if you want, but you'll have to change the slots and names and all the stuff like that so it can work with the V8s and I6 Engine, and it isn't variable tho

 

Thanks guys, I would try and tell you after it went well. ^^ Specially fufsgfen, thx

Can you put a zip file if you can? I would like to compare with your work and my work

 

Absolutely! Here you have, but think it's for a Diesel engine!

 

Thx. I might can figure it out the diesel part... Maybe.. :A

 

It's easy, you just have to change the "tab" of engineRPM, turboefficiency and exhaustfactor.
I hope you can profit it!

 

Oh I see. I'll try it now!

 

Any progress on the turbo for the D-Series 4.5 and 5.5 engines? I'd make stage 1-3 with a stg 4 being variable but im unsure how to start.

 

Let me figure it out if you give me the file. Thx for applying by the way.
