On Hold Hirochi SBR4 Coupe 1.0.5

Derpitron updated Hirochi SBR4 Coupe with a new update entry:

Various Fixes

Read the rest of this update entry...

 

I've made some changes to the body shape. Let me know if it's closer to your concept art, or looks the same.
Note: I could not get the exact angle of photography

 

Another idea for the coupe:
Could you remove the rear seats?

 

Honestly tho that’s not totally necessary coupe cars still have rear seat might be useless but it’s always there if u need it and lore wise wouldn’t it be cheaper to keep them?

 

Since it's not exactly a shooting-brake anymore, should it be CPR4 or something like that?

 

I chose SBRC because it had SBR in the name, and it sounded cool. CPR4 would sound like the name of a different car

The rear seats in the SBR4 are quite small, and many coupes have these small seats in the back, as alentaylor mentioned

I couldn't decide whether to stick with @PaiDoNikolas concept design, or my current coupe design, so I decided to choose both.

Left: A design by @PRC0
Right: My design.


According to the lore, the sleek design was the original concept design, made by the Hirochi designers to display at an auto show. Then, when people liked this concept design, Hirochi decided to tweak the design to make it look more like a conventional coupe. You will be able to choose between both designs. My design will be called the Prime Coupe, while PRC0's design will be the main design going forward.

 

YAAAAAY U MADE THE WINDSHILED SHORTER I felt the height of it at first was off im glad u changed it

 

Glad to see you're putting more effort into the MOD! As the changes were quite subtle, it would be interesting to list the detailed changes so that we can more easily notice them.

Other than that, I thought it was amazing. It is possible to notice greater difference to the traditional version of the game. I can't identify if there has been a change in the 'A' column and windshield, but it looks like there is.
I also suggested removing the rear seats as the "hatchback" version of the vehicle already has them. In that case, whoever needs the seats would opt for it. Unlike coupes that do not have a respective 2+2 version. A Porsche 911, for example, needs the rear seats, although they are useless, since there is no shooting brake version.

I have attached a copy of the image that I liked the most. Thank you!

 

The A Pillar has indeed been shortened.

 

That makes all the difference. It's very cool.

As a suggestion, I still think you should consider "emulating" carbon fiber inserts on the bottom of the doors and also some adhesive (or something similar) on the 'C' column to create a "floating roof" effect. But, I don't know if this is possible or if it would be too much unnecessary work.

 

Ooo that look good with the floating roof but maybe a fin design in the black with the body color

 

Finn design?
Did you mean the rear spoiler?

 

No like a fin shape in the c pillar hold up imma send a pic

Something like?

 

??

 

That is a UV mapping error, it will not be present in the actual mod update

This fin design looks quite weird for a sports car, I don't think it will fit the design of the sbr4

 

The Concept Body (Prime Coupe) will be used for the GT3 race car config.

 

Nice.

 

hey whenever I spawn the cars in from this mod, they have no back tires. is there a fix?

 

Idk but I have encountered similar situations from other mods, just go to the parts selector and put the tires back.
