Audi R8 Suspension Help

Hey everyone,
I've been improving on someone else's mod that I found on World of Mods which is a 2017 Audi R8. I've improved nearly everything to what I'm happy with, the only thing is the suspension. For some reason, the Passenger side wheels sit flush after messing with the offsets, however, the driver's front wheel is tucked way in, and the driver's rear wheel sticks out like crazy. I've tried everything to fix this and I cannot figure it out. I've tried changing everything in the JBeam including a ton of different nodes and I still cannot figure it out. (Note: Suspension isn't my best area in JBeams. I'm much better at Engine and electronics in the JBeam, hence how I got this car to be nearly dialed.) Anyone got any ideas? It's been driving me crazy because everything else is dialed lol. Attached are some pictures to show what I mean.

 

Hey there, Welcome to the forums!

We do not know how the mods were made as they were sourced outside the forum. We do not know what is the issues as the maker does not share about it on sites like world of mods. Most of those mods are low quality and quite a number don’t work too.

I recommend to get such mods from the forum (Forum>Vehicles>Land) as the modmakers will get to see the issues and help resolve it unlike on sites like those

I hope this helps and once again, welcome to the forums!

 

This definitely seems fixable though, there must be a malpositioned node somewhere. Have you tried activating node names with ctrl+N and beams with ctrl+B and searching for any assimetric nodes ?

 

I think it could possibly be a need of adjustment or maybe a missing part? (I noticed some mods don’t spawn as complete vehicles)

 

I've tried to use the node names to see if anything was notably wrong, but honestly, I have no idea what I'm looking for. If it helps I can attach a screenshot of the nodes and the names to see if there is something that is obviously incorrect.

 

I doubt i'll find anything more than you but no hurt in trying.

 

@dumpling might be able to help you

 

Oh hello! I've read through this a bit but I don't know if I can fix anything relating to nodes and node positions. Sure I can change the ride height, suspension stiffness, and all that mechanical tuning stuff, but fixing something that is broken isn't always my best ability.

 

Doesn't seem like a node problem at all, the offset is usually controlled by the hub settings
If it is a node problem you can find which node by checking the wheeldata part of the front/rear suspension jbeam
If they are symetrical, find the hub section and adjust there

 

I thought it was offset-related but what throws me off is that it's inconsistent. I've got the offset and everything set right and it makes one side sit perfectly flush but makes the other side tucked in. The best way I can explain is like running a 25mm wheel spacer on one side of your car. (I work with/modify a lot of exotics so this is what makes the most sense to explain lol) and what's weird is that for the fronts its the opposite side that sits flush and the other that sticks out. At first, I thought the body could be attached off-center but if it was then the offset difference would've been consistent for both front and back, not opposite in the front and back.
lmk if anyone has any ideas

 

Look in the front/rear suspension jbeams for the wheeldata section and make sure they are labeled correctly left and right like this

["RR", "wheel_RR", "tire_RR", "rw1rr", "rw1r", 9999, "ax3r", 1, {"torqueCoupling:":"ax1", "torqueArm:":"ax3"}],

["RL", "wheel_RL", "tire_RL", "rw1ll", "rw1l", 9999, "ax3l",-1, {"torqueCoupling:":"ax1", "torqueArm:":"ax3"}],

If they are correct look in the main suspension section, make sure the nodes mentioned in the wheeldata section are in fact mirrored correctly

If both of those fail, they most likely have overridden the nodes by accidently adding a node with the same name on a different part, this could be any part really, so a program like atom that can search entire folders contents may come in handy to find where they slipped up and rename things all at once instead of jbeam by jbeam
