This works on vehicles too, up to a point, but if you want to make graphical elements to your jbeam, it may be useful:

Here instead of ["barstow_trunk", ["barstow_trunk"]], you would put ["your3dModelNameInBlender", ["yourNodeGroupname"]],
https://wiki.beamng.com/JBeam_Reference#flexbodies

For textures, you need to make sure mapTo mentioned in these documents is exactly same as material name in Blender:
https://wiki.beamng.com/Vehicle_Materials

If you want to be lazy, export your 3d mesh to map in a way I show in 1st link of this post, then grab materials.cs file and copy it to your vehicle folder.

Anyway I find it easiest to practice exporting 3d mesh and textures to map like shown in 1st link and then when you get hang of it, move them to your vehicle folder and add that flexbody section to your vehicle .jbeam. (your triangle is vehicle in this sense)

 

uff thank you so much for the help mate!

i dont understand anything from the links...

 

It clearly has a point. Otherwise, it would be a dome, not a tetrahedron...

I can help with the texture if you want. I will need the model though.

 

cool but later!

 

Alright. Whenever you are ready.

Just open some vanilla vehicle and examine what it has in it, then find all that from links and bit by bit you start to understand more and more, it just takes bit time and effort, won't happen in a week.

 

I have been hearing that term alot."vanilla cars" what does that mean?

 

Cars that come with the base game, eg. without mods.

 

Thank you!

You should make a whole pack of geometric shapes.

 

already thinked of that...but i dont really know how to make a square i mean this is just a jbeam file copyed and improved...a square would take a custom jbeam..also i tried to add a mesh to the triangle but didnt worked...so i have to know the big Basics of jbeaming...
