What is Going on? v19.Apr.25

zgshnk post What is Going on? v19.Apr.25 from patreon

Door Physics v2
First version was a nice PoC to check how moving doors looks and how they affect car handling.

In v2 animation was completely removed, instead door behaviour is fully physics simulated with similar to original mechanism approach.

Meanwhile made some car model fixes, and now I'm fighting with materials and textures to make the car look even better.


See you soon.

This one is for content makers.

I would like to share my way of 3d to game export process. I'm using two scripts:

  • First: runs in 3dsmax and creates FBX file.

  • Second: takes this fbx and run fbx-to-kn5 conversion, and puts result into car mod folder.

  • Third click: just run the game.

Prerequisites:

You must understand and be able to perform all the steps manually to set up this automation in your environment.

DeLorean Suspension & Frame

zgshnk post DeLorean Suspension & Frame from patreon

Delorean Suspension update.

The Initial idea behind flying Delorean was to implement not only Hover engine but also the car itself, staying closer to its historical prototype. To achieve this, I developed the Frame Lab Mod.

The DeLorean DMC-12 was originally built on a Lotus-designed frame, which served as the foundation for its development. Unfortunately, due to the company’s collapse, the car's engineering was never fully refined beyond this initial stage. While the DMC-12 is undeniably iconi...

Great Scott everyone!

Finally, it's time to revisit the DeLorean hover engine. Our first attempt at a flying machine was tricky to control and not very enjoyable. It took us some time to learn from our challenges, and I'm truly grateful for that journey. We're now developing a new version, which hopefully will be more fun to drive and fly.

See you soon.

Boxster and Singer v4.50 update

zgshnk post Boxster and Singer v4.50 update from patreon

According to Niels Heusinkveld research, many of car simulators ignore how in fact engine reacts on throttle pedal.

In other words most of the time it works wrong, that is why you might feel a dramatic difference how you operate gas pedal in real car and in simulators.

Now this was fixed. These cars have updated throttle model, so we are making one another step for simulators close to reality and imme...

Good news Everyone!

While working on new stuff, and updating old mods and always got feeling that something is wrong with how cars reacts on throttle pedal.

Recently Niels Heusinkveld made bunch if useful videos on this topic with explanations. Kudos, Niels!

TLDR: most of games/sims implementation of the throttlePedal-to-engine reaction not really matches how it works in real life. Including AC, ACC, and AC Evo.

It is about how game translates our throttle pedal position into engines torque.

Main idea is that ...

DeLorean Frame and Suspension

This is the first car frame assembly with animated suspension.

I'm still collecting accurate vehicle information and I still need to double check the values ​​which are hard to find but some are vital to overall consistency.

I noticed that some photos of the drawings are circulating on the Internet. If you have any, then now they are most needed )

The current plan is to use this naked version for the final suspension setup.

So far everything is going very well )
