Alfa Romeo 155 2.0

Hi everyone.

I'm here to release the final update of the Alfa Romeo 155 mod (I will update the mod, of course, if needed to get this to work due of some future major BeamNG.Drive updates or some minor tweaks). I've been working on this for one year straight (due to some major life changes and due to my full time job) so that all the details, from the least important to the most important, are clearly visible, fixing hopefully all issues and improved the overall model quality:...

- Added Physical Mirrors to all variants;
- Improved mesh definition for some body details, like TwinSpark gear shifter, grab handles, seats and headrests;
- Reworked pedals texture and UV map for all street variants;
- Reworked TwinSpark engine cover model;
- Cleaned up all variants engine bay from most of the polygonal compenetrations;
- Fixed some AI engine stalling behavior at low speed;
- Added aerodynamic parts to the Q4 variant;
- Improved a lot of material features,...

- Increased car population value, which make traffic more likely to pick this car;
- Fixed mirrors to be more realistic and precisely oriented (not physical yet);
- Greatly reduced spotlights brightness values to make them more realistic and non intrusive while driving in intense traffic;

- Aerodynamics and air drag now work as intended.
- Materials improved by adding .color, .normal and .data prefix to the .png images file names;
- Deleted some unused UVs and fixed some wrong ones;
- Improved readability of .jbeam files;
- Fully implemented the GTA Superturismo variant;

- Retuned suspensions;
- Skins now work properly;
- Fixed and improved some material texture and behavior;
- Added custom engine sound to all engine variants (I used the wonderful tool 'Engine Sim' by AngeTheGreat to do that);
- Polished little mod details;
- Fully implemented the 1.7 Twin Spark 8v variant (civil and italian Firefighters);

- Fixed a few wrong UV maps;
- Slight optimizations to some meshes to further reduce vertex number;
- Cleaned up some UV map layers to reduce .dae file size;
- Added a few little details to the model;
- Added new License plates;
- Added flywheel;
- Completely cleaned up root folder, merged and polished some .jbeam files;
- Fully implemented the Q4 variant;
- Fully implemented the GTA Stradale variant (using all the few small available details);

--------------- Q4 variant...

- Fixed a few messy UV maps;
- Slight optimizations to some meshes to reduce vertex number;
- Added some model details (rear side windows and center of the dashboard)
- Implemented a fully custom oil pressure function (linked to the gauge);
- Cleaned up some lua scripts;
- Added new License plates;
- Added a fully custom taximeter lua script;
- Entirely rewrote gear shift ratios to be as the real technical specifications say;
- Improved police skin colors;
- Fully...

- Fixed a few messy UV maps;
- Added new "Arbre magique" parfume flavors;
- Added new License plates;
- Reworked wipers script to behave as a real one;
- Grouping up car parts (almost done);
- Fully implemented the 1.8 Twin Spark 16v variant (civil and italian Police);

- Fixed some messy UV maps and improved some materials quality;
- Polished some of the Automation automatically exported opacity maps;
- Fixed gearshift shifting movements (it now works as intended);
- "Arbre magique" parfume it is now a flexbody (it now is affected by physics);
- Fixed front triangled grill to be more likely to the original one;
- Implemented working wipers;
- Completely reordered mod folders and files structure to be more practical and convenient in the future;
- Grouping...

V 1.0​

Hi everyone.
Here, this is my second mod, one of my favourite italian cars and an old italian motoring icon: the Alfa Romeo 155, a wonderful car produced by Alfa Romeo between 1992 and 1998.
I tried to do a 1:1 realistic replica of the car, using all real life data, technical specs and all available references.
I did the basic model with Automation, then I put it under an intense editing process with Blender and Paint.Net.
The car has custom high-res textures,...
