Hi everyone! My first post here so hopefully formatting and such goes well. Here is my latest concept that I have been working on for a few months now. I love the Sunburst, especially all the police mods for it, but one thing has always bothered me about it... no push bar! Welp! I'm here to fix that. Here is what I have so far: To do list: Finish cleaning up the model in Blender Texture properly - good enough for now Jbeam Make the individual parts optional, such as the push bar only and push bar + PIT addon Make a modified version for other vehicles cause why not I hope to finish this mod up soon and release it. I still need help learning on how to Jbeam properly. I figured out the basics enough for it to work in-game and not explode instantly, but still needs a lot of work. Any input is appreciated! Thanks for looking! Update 8/24: Sorry for the long delay. College n stuffs. It's pretty much done. Just need some slight tweaking of the jbeam and it should be ready to go in the next day or two. Update 8/26: After many wrecked cars and hours of tweaking the jbeam, I feel like it's ready. Update 8/27: I modified the light bar, front, and rear lights, along with the timings of the lights and how they flash. I made a 'Pursuit' and 'Stop' mode. The pursuit mode will flash all lights, where the stopped mode will flash only the blue lights, and the red lights will be solid, similar to how California Highway Patrol cars work. Feedback is appreciated. Update 8/30: Figured out how to separate the push bar and the PIT addons so they're now optional. Waiting for approval from the moderators for an official release. It's officially released! https://beamng.com/resources/sunburst-police-high-speed-unit-pit-edition.5535/
I really like the look of this. Have you considered making a new lightbar that moves the lights from the grille to the push bar?
Thanks everyone! Trying my best to make it perfect. Yes I have! I want to take a peek at the light bar and figure out how it works so I can add lights to the push bar, and add more lights in general. I sorta wanna make it how CHP (California Highway Patrol) does it with their push bars. Two red lights at a 45-degree angle on the front.
It wasn't my original plan too, but it would look freaking awesome with one, so why not. Hopefully I can get some time to finish this and get cracking on the SBR4! I'll take a look at the front end of it and see how much work it's gonna be. Shouldn't be too hard to do I would think.
but this should be compatible ... scratch that, theirs siren mods for this game but no push bar glad you agreed
Must say Im excited to see this in the game. Would be great versus my workaround of a pursuit car with just the bash bar and no bumper. Also makes the Sunbaby look pretty mean.
I wanted to post an update saying I took a look at the SBR4 and it looks sweet with the push bar on it. I'll have to modify it quite a bit but I hope to get around to posting pictures of it soon.
I like the idea! Maybe you can do Burnside next? The Burnside police needs some work but it looks great!
