Hi this is just the default barrier but modified so it is super heavy it is my first official mod Hope you all enjoy There is 1 known issue so far if a car hits it super fast it may cause instability remember if you want the original props run the updater anyway enjoy I am happy to say these are now officially working Just plop the file's in the zip into the vehicles folder Features 1075kg Barrels 15000kg Barrier 1800kg Tire stacks 500kg Cones 10000kg Flip ramp 15024kg Road signs That is the end of props in the game enjoy these heavy versions of the props
Re: 15000kg barrier Thanks i am gonna make some more heavy props for the fun of it hope everyone enjoys this
Re: 15000kg barrier Ok cool! Here's a tip: When you make the other props, just put them into this forum and change the title. That way people can find your mods all in one thread and it would make it more organized!
Re: 15000kg barrier Yeah kinda! Just edit this thread when you have a new one, and change the title accordingly. That way there won't be multiple threads.

Awesome idea!! These are n/b based, correct? Looking forward to more of these n/b mods, like Drowsy's N/B Ramp and Cannon. Cars and vehicle are great, but static objects like these would definitely add a lot more immersion into the game. Trees and bushes, anyone? And great name for this thread
I believe they are n/b based i have no idea i was fiddling with the jbeam and changed node weights and decided to make heavy props
Then I believe that you believe correctly, if you modified the Jbeam , they most certainly are N/B based good job, this is probably the best way to get to know the jbeam system, by tweaking small bits (check out my sig Covet Mod, doing similar light tweaking to achieve desired results...on hold for now, waiting for Multi-DAE support)
Ok I will check out your covet when i finish with the props - - - Updated - - - New 10000 kkg flipramp check top post for snapshots - - - Updated - - - I really like the look of your new covet - - - Updated - - - Sorry for a delay i was eating i am going to start the signs - - - Updated - - - New 15024kg Road signs check them out (Warning may have lots of clipping issue's)
Thanks allready finished with the props i am thinking of a heavy car shop thread but first i am seeing if i can figure out how to make cars heavier and adjust engine powers so they can move - - - Updated - - - Woah engine torque takes a long time to figure out maybe i try tomorrow
Here is a pic of the torque curve for (my modified) Covet (outlined in RED) It is basically a list of RPM, separated by a comma, a space, then a torque value (in NM). You can see how I bumped up the NM of the Covet engine, not ridiculous, but a more realistic torque curve. Kinda like a diesel engine. Just adjust these values. That's how you can modify the car's power. Image: EDIT Like a diesel engine, with a LOT of top end You can see that my RPM values jump around... The easiest and most "organized: way to create the torque curve is to use evenly spaced RPM numbers... 500 1000 1500 2000 2500...etc etc. Or you can use smaller intervals, like every 500 or even 100 rpms (that will create a long list, but should translate in-game to a smooth torque curve). And the best way to make the cars heavier, but balanced, is to find nodes near the center of the car, and the lower, the better (such as nodes near the transmission tunnel/floor boards under the front seats, etc). I can go on and on, since I have been messing around for a few months now, but here is a link to the tutorial that helped me in the beginning...once you follow this tutorial and play around with it for a few days/weeks, you get more and more brave to start tackling more advanced values/sections of the jbeam. HERE is the tutorial. It's pretty good, not "over-the-top" in depth, but a great place to start. Keep on keepin' on!!
