(1.0/A21) bdubyah's modlets

Alright, just pushed out updates for all my mods.

Tweaked textures for everything, tweaked headlights and physics for the Box trucks and the Jeep.

 
Updated the Box Truck and Willy Jeep!

Added some light flares for both so they look better at night. Not completely happy with them, but they are better. Thanks to Guppy for the tips.

Also tweaked the physics on the Jeep again. Not 100% satisfied, but it feels much better than the drift machine it was before.

Funny, because I want a drift machine that doesn't flip...

Which physics aspect played the largest role, side friction?

Some things that help driftiness:

1. Low center of mass

2. Rear wheel drive

3. High ratio of engine force to tire friction force (i.e. mass*gravitational acceleration*friction coefficient)

 
Yeah, the values for the side friction are the biggest changes I made. Upping the mass might help you drift more too. I found a post last night that got me to where it is now. I'm at work but when I get home tonight I'll try and find the link.

There seems to be multiple ways to accomplish the same things with these values. Mostly relies on the ratios of the numbers I guess.

 
Wanted to make it an electric one that ran off of batteries, but I don't think I can without SDX.

So it'll just be a slow, gas-efficient one then. Haha.

 
Lol good one; I'm out of ideas, except maybe some more pickups and sedans. I thought about doing a Segway, but fuggit.

I might start making weird ones like my shopping basket cart, otherwise I'm tapped for ideas.

 
I have maybe one or two more that I really wanna do. Got a few melee weapon ideas I want to add at some point.

Really wanted to try a few guns next, but there isn't much left that hasn't been added already, and I don't wanna just keep adding separate gun modlets onto it.

 
Could go apocalyptic and do zip guns and other crap people would actually be capable of building in an apocalypse...

 
That was actually a direction I was looking at. Something similar to the pipe guns from Fallout. Fairly cheap to make, but weak and breaks kinda quick.

 
Alright, the Golf Cart is out!

Slow, small gas tank but gets good mileage.

Also added a bonus melee weapon along with it:

Finally got around to uploading them to Nexus, in case you don't wanna use Git. Links in OP.

Also added a loot.xml for the Banjo and Rebar Club. Hopefully I got it right and they spawn in loot at an okay rate.

 
Heh, first car I ever raced. I was in an 84 Ford escort, and I had no idea what that beast was.

I found out quickly. :)
