Bko mods - mainly road vehicles, occasionally other stuff

It's a coming soon.

Hope you like my settings menu.

And available now;

Cars of the 90's

Looking forward to your feed-back

Zitat von Dunkel

Wow, this will be an extensive mod with so many clever solutions. That must have been an enormouos amount of work. Thank you for your effort.

Btw.: I am collecting good reasons to allow me to buy a bigger monitor. Your settings menu is on the list now.

I would like if UG would make it possible to adjust the window size of it.

But probably they have by now noted the issue and it is already on the wish list.

Next the cars will be made available for the sims AI traffic.

Probably there will be multiple packs, but just want to know what you would prefer.

A. a starter pack, with the exact same vehicles as the driving ones, due to the high number of models other AI cars will appear very little.

B. a colour pack, using the color config feature, the major difference is that this will not outrule other AI traffic.

I do not mind they generally will outrule the standard vanila cars, however some other mods I still want to see driving. So I tend to option B, only that will need more development.

Also I'm thinking to perhaps provide multiple versions for different countries, which then is reflected in corresponding license plates.

If someone wants to help me out to make that a mod selection in the load menu please let me know.

PS The tuned Celica and VR6 since those still do exceed my aimed max. tris count so will not be included for road traffic to ensure performance.

I'm working on the AI road cars now. First pack is about done and that will feature German plates. All cars models use color config settings for the base colors and come in 6 colors. In this 'Germany' set the C-class has 2 variants, so 12 colors, and the Golf has 3 variants, 18 colors and hence these will appear a bit more. I will add a Dutch set for sure, but which other countries are desired?

I imagine British with 2 variants of the Escort, similar French with more Peugoet and Renault, perhaps Italian or Swedish ?? pls let me know which you would like.

Also taxis will be available, of course, my taxi sign for France is finished. I'm thinking Marseille & Paris with Peugeot 406, MB C & E Classes and Alfa 155's.

For DE & NL taxis will follow later.

I would like to use some footage of your use of my cars mod for the steam presentation images. So hope to see some images in the gallery.

Three versions of my cars in road traffic have just been uploaded.

So again; Coming soon;!

Excellent MaikC

PS The vehicles all use color config, so they appear in a normal proportion with other vehicles.

The 3 packs can be combined to increase my vehicles.

For France my taxi pack is progressing.

It will contain 4 vehicles in 3 colors each and offers a choice for taxi signs from Paris, Poitiers and (of course) Marseille.

The selection is similar to the selection in the main mod, so includes random model selection.

Just wondering if I want to add a crew feature for the asset now ... (??)

I've uploaded a short vid of a road test for the taxis;

Decided to go for a crew option for the taxis.

Driver driving

Driver sitting

and perhaps a passenger.

For the driver sitting I made a new position for the character, it's simply a combination of the driving and sitting vanila animations. Legs and feet are 'driving', body and arms are 'sitting'.

Therewith I can position him without his feet sticking out. At the moment I've only done so for the era_c road driver, but it works well;

Completing the taxi pack for France is going to be a Road traffic mod. The taxis have deviating color config and a driver character besides the game 'person'.

I aim to make this for Paris only and to include the C-class, E-class & 406. Those will then spwan as regular road traffic.

If you desire more models or other cities, now is the time to let me know.

Started a first version of a German taxi.

I'm not sure when commercials on the side became common? Think it was still not so much at least back in the '90...
