Small progress report:



Did some fine tuning on the mesh.



As well as some skinning. The back part has some decent morphing IMHO, I just need to finish the morphing around the cab and at the front.


Should I put a cargo area at the front?.

[strop]

I would say nah no need. As if cargo for a race car shell LOL

[VosNox]

Looks damn good.

I see a new car body for a race series

and as far as 'cargo' goes i dont think these things are meant to carry much more then a person, a 500ml water bottle and a fire extinguisher :-p

This brings back memories.

Quick question, is it possible to make morph points to accomodate wheels of different widths? Looks like it would be... difficult!

Yes.



Right now it fits 295 stock and 445 when morphed.

I might make it so the rear end can take even wider tires, but I might not change the front as I already had issues making the look semi-decent when morphed. As for tire width in stock form, it would mean making the engine bay narrower, making it harder to fit very large V configuration engines with very large turbos.

Quite frankly I wouldn't be surprised if that body ends up being used to break lap records.

I think it will be record breaker. You could built hyper light weight RWD cars. with 445 rear tire max, AWD wouldn't be needed for getting traction with massive horsepower.

[TrackpadUser]

It's not that light, due to how automation calculates weights. In fact it's slightly heavier than the larger mid-engined car that is currently in the game.

Also, it seems that it will be impossible to use longitudinally mounted turbo charged inline engines for now in mid-engined cars.

I tried and this error appears:

---------------------------
Lua Error:
---------------------------
tolua++ dbcall failed!: [string "--client\functional\EngineCombustion_Aspirati..."]:350: attempt to index field 'ExhaustPoints' (a nil value)

You can CTRL+C on this to report it.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

And it seems to happen no matter the car or engine, as long as it is inline and turbocharged and that the body is mid engined.

Thankfully transverse works, and V8s work. So if you want to put a 1000HP I4 in it, it should not be an issue.

Car should be released before I go to bed, I'll edit the title and the OP.

Can't wait!

[np1993]

The car looks great! Just DL'd it

I couldn't be happier that my shift ends in half an hour. I have a date with this new body coming right up!

[np1993]

With roughly 880hp and a mediocre tune I can get sub 80 seconds lap times around the airfield in this thing with RWD and no carbon fiber parts. This body has potential!

I am finding the height of an engine a bigger restriction then width/length I have to use a single intake to keep the engine short enough,

[TrackpadUser]

Yeah, I don't know if there is a way to change the height of the engine bay.

sweeet
