Hi everyone,
It's time to give some news about mods that will be available in the future.

I present you the Heolia Vendome, a Citroen DS knock off fictional car project that begun at the end of last year. This is very early Wip stage.

View attachment 248126 View attachment 248127 View attachment 248128 View attachment 248130 View attachment 248129

This is why the Oldsfullsize update is not going fast, i need variety to avoid to get bored and i don't work currently on a unique project.
Also, i don't like very much to show early work like this , but as a DS thread was just launched i thought it was fair to show that a similar project exists and is way more advanced already. Not the real car though.

The Citroen DS is my all time favorite car and i have a blast doing this, i drool to see it working in game. It's so exciting and reminds me so much movies stunts with this car

Important notice :

- no release date yet, please don't ask for it. It will be released ... when it's ready.
- This is possiblly one piece of a bigger project
- as for every modding stuff , there is always a possibility it gets cancelled, due to life and work priorities
- beta test group closed

Credits:
Synsol : Jbeam
Sergent Fido : 3D model and textures, maybe sounds

current state :
- Jbeam almost finished. It's always good to have a good jbeam before polyshing the model and textures, it's motivating and a guarantee the car will be playable, should the texturing be unfinished that the car will run and drive fine.
- hydraulic suspensions being worked on, for now it drives with a place holder suspension.
- model of the body almost done, lacks now engine and interior details, then all the texturing.
- drivetrain models done, needs details and textures.

Features :

- hydraulic suspensions with height control (Wip)
- rotating lights with steering (done)

View attachment 248131

- leather and velours interior (Wip), removable roof

View attachment 248132

- 4 and 6 cylinders engine, 5 speed manual and 3 speeds automatique transmissions

Design :

The idea is a bit like if the DS had a last facelift instead of being replaced, so it gets a V6 engine from an italian company (Civetta ?) like the SM, and the design is mixed with this car as well : similar Headlights and interior, sharper edges on the body, hood, fenders, big taillights.

To get an idea of what it would look like, i made a quick sketch :

View attachment 248133

Not very well balanced nor proportioned, but it doesn't matter.

Then i did two photoshop montages to see a possible result, by adding SM parts on two DS photos and painting the body to figure out the shapes :

(credit to the photographer, is there is an issue sharing this modified photos to illustrate my preliminary work, please let met know and i'll remove them)

Then i've painted a modified "blue print" with the new features to help build the car. only the side and top views where usefull, rear and front are not real blueprint views. But as this is a fictional car, i had room left to improvisation. that is appreciable comparing to reproducing a real car with accuracy.

now you can see a bunch of work in progress pics, that i thought you could appreciate to see :

And to finish, some in game screenshots. This car is heavily unsafe and will fall in parts pretty easily. With the V6 engine it's a fast car that stick the road, which make it even more dangerous. But hey, this is the 70', no speed limits on the highway in France

I hate them with a passion. For me nice cars production stopped in 1995, with some exceptions. I'm sick of seeing and hearing all of those diesel with all the same look cars everywhere. I miss the time i could recognise a car in the street just by hearing the engine. Now it's all the same "glock glock glock" ugly knocking sound.

I agree, modern cars look like somebody drizzled hot wax over a Lego brick...

But I can't say that they stopped OVERALL in '95, I think the '00 Silvia is one of the best cars on the planet.

Well, seeing that you are making a new (great!) car mod, I feel as if we can expect no lack in detail! Can't wait!

The 8th gen Galant is a nice looking car, it sort of has a European theme to it. and the 6th gen civic looks quite nice also.

I would love to see a ek civic in this game. if anyone needs reference photos, I am happy to supply photos of my 96 NZ assembled lxi sedan.

I have a question, is it going to be skinnable like the oldsfullsize? I'm already interested in doing skins for this.

I may try doing a skin like this.

I would like to see "DS" that has sitted under an tree forgotten for the last 25 years. Covered in birdpoop leaves empty bottles of wine etc...

King_Corduroy · Mar 26, 2017

OMG I've been wanting someone to make the 2CV in Beamng but HOLY COW I LOVE THIS. I'm a huge fan of the SM, I simply can't wait! This is amazing!
