Outdated Simple Traffic Expansion Pack 0.42

Last configs I'll add before I release update 0.3. Meet the Pessima (Old) Beater and Covet Beater! Like the LeGran Beater, they should rarely spawn. You'll also notice the Covet's left side of the front bumper is not properly attached, to give it more of a beater/used feel (not noticeable on images, but you'll notice it moves a bit when accelerating or braking).

 

modeewy25 updated Simple Traffic Expansion Pack with a new update entry:

New configs! Plus some tweaks

Could you add more configs for the D - Series and Roamer, making them more common? Because at the moment they are super rare despite SUVs being the most common in real life.

Also if you want some help, hit me up. I got experience and have a simplified Miramar, Grumman LLV and Grand Marshal Limo.

Also have done some unique ones too, like the traffic for MertY Cherrier Potent, including the cab suspension.

Anyways, message me

 

The problem is that if there are a lot of configs for D-Series and Roamer, they will spawn much more often (for example LeGran from this mod before this update) You need to find the perfect balance, which will most likely be difficult to find

you want them to spawn more often, as they are a common vehicle in real life

 

In America yes, but in other countries crossovers dominate, rather than huge pickups and SUVs Hey, even sedans are being eclipsed by crossovers! I'd also like to point out that there's only one pickup truck in the game

 

I know SUVs are common in the USA, but at the same time I do not want to have all the added configs from this mod to be too common, so they spawn more than vanilla configs. I'm already wary if this mod will affect performance already, due to the new parts, materials and in some cases, engine sounds, so that's another reason. Btw, I won't touch vanilla Population values, at least not for now. Got told the other day each car Population is based on a maximum value of 30000, and divided accordingly to the number of configs for said car (except the Sunburst, which is capped at 20000 for each bodywork, and the Robot Van, which is capped at 3000 so it's not too common). I decided to base mine on a Population value of 20000, like the aftermentioned Sunburst, for the time being.

Also, I'll make sure to DM if I need help. Did you finish the Miramar? I remember it was still a WIP, not too long ago.

 

normally yes since there is a lore friendly version to the traffic pack

 

The Miramar is relatively finished, facelift and pre. It only has 2 configs at the moment, but it wouldnt take much work to add more

Also I would still recommend making the values higher for the more common types of cars

 

Just to make sure, does it mean I should revert the Population values for LeGran back to how they were in version 0.2?

 

Also I would still recommend

No, the legran should be rare like in real life. I would keep all population values low except the Roamer, D10, and D15. Those are not common enough.

 

Ok, I'll increase the Population values for those so they're at the same level or closer to the vanilla ones.

 

Performance is indeed an important issue, but what about the idea of splitting the mod into parts?
Like, taxis are separate, tuners too!
Although it doesn't sound very good

 

After the new car will release, you will make simplified configs for it?

Also, maybe a sporty Covet?

 

Already added the Covet ZXi, ZXi Special Edition and GTz, plus the Street Tuned. And for now this mod will be focused on already exisiting simplified vanilla configs. Can't say anything about the upcoming car because we barely know about it (besides it being a Cherrier and all of that).
--- Post updated ---

Not planned for now.

 

Its pretty likely the new car will get a traffic version. @modeewy25 I would prepare to have a bunch of stuff break in the next update, it’s likely the devs will add more content, given the Robot van

 

I just realized that there was a discussion thread - do you think we can eventually get city bus and MD/T-Series simple configs? I dont know how hard this would be since they're completely separate vehicles from ones that are already simplified, but it would be cool since they're missing

 

AFAIK big vehicles like the T-Series and bus are not feasible due to the big size and AI limitations. MD might be added by the devs, according to what CrashHaven said here: https://www.beamng.com/threads/update-speculation-thread.20246/page-3751#post-1886007

 

Its too hard for the Ai to handle the T series, unless its just the cab (like the Cherrier Potent simplified traffic I made)

 

Introducing a new Pessima (New) simplified config, the Street Tuned! Comes with simplified versions of the Custom Bumpers, Skirts, Spoiler, Muffler and Headlights Decals, as well as a simplified version of the Wangan-3SP (White) wheels. Also, I deleted a few trim bits on the Bruckell LeGran Beater configs.
