    hey all,

    Currently working on a mod, but something crossed my mind. No matter where i look, i can't find that little Hirochi Sunburst Spark mod. I used to have it on my home computer, but i might have deleted it some time ago. This mod is likely almost four years old, but here's the description of what i found and gathered: 800cc gas engine with (two?) electric motors which made it a hybrid. It looked identical to a stock Sunburst except for a grill-less hood. It's normal seen in blue, and i found two pictures. Here's the best photo i found. If you have it or know the resources to it please message me or post it here. Thanks!

    I have that mod. I checked the configs and the engine choices, no "Spark" or 800cc (0.8L) engine. Anything else you know?

    I searched webarchives for Djplopper's Mega Pack and did find the page in the older version, but the file is unaccessible to download. My home computer also does not have it. Do mod's downloaded from the Mod's section automatically update? I never re-downloaded the mod on the home computer....

    appesh1, Thanks for the informative posts. I do miss the days you were on the General Discussion thread, but I'm glad you're giving information to other people now =)

    By the way, I have been talking about mental health stuff on that thread if you want to check it out.

    Anyways, It sucks this dude can't find the car he's looking for. I hope someone can make a "Spark" mod for this guy. Here's a question for you. Do you have anymore advice or information to give to this dude?

    Well, making the grille-less hood on the sunburst would be pretty easy, I could do that for you, but the engine would be the same.
    Edit: I'm stupid I would make a custom low-speed config and then model it off of that.

    Hey Phym, appesh1 handed me over the Spark file. It works with the legacy mod. Only thing (not a bother for me) is that there are no sounds and no engine texture. Do you think you can add in the hybrid (electric motor accompanying official beamng sunburst engine sound)? I won't be posting the file publicly for creditory reasons. Let me know if you can help me out or if you'd be willing to add engine sound

    Edit: I have an electric Sunburst mod. Maybe we can use the .sbeam file and .wav file (I looked into the sounds file on that mod) in addition to the gas engine?

    Edit 2: appesh1 threw in .sbeam sound, great quick work. I'll see about publishing it when I get approval. No credit to me besides arising the question! I'll be learning more .sbeam and .jbeam, etc as my Saguma Move progresses.

    Okay, I can try. Another idea is to import the esbr sounds(as it is newer) and put those files together, I also can fix the engine textures and put custom ones.
