Beta Backyard Kart 0.17.6

A backyard-built kart

  1. One Wheel Rear Fixes and dummy tweaks

    nachtstiel
    With the newest update uploaded, I figured I'd get together a changelog. This post will be updated as each change is made unless it gets buried.

    Old Parts:
    • Frames
      • Added mesh helper nodes to prevent the front of the center frame from distorting after a crash
    • Exhaust
      • Added more nodes to all exhausts to aid in proper deformation
      • Adjusted node weight to maintain previous weight
    • Aero
      • Redid break groups and strengths of front and...
  2. Oopsies!

    nachtstiel
    This update is to fix the offset dummy breaking the kart lua. It is a fair bit larger due to including several WIP textures that I have yet to compress.

    This update also includes:
    • WIP
      • Texture updates
      • Mesh updates
      • Snorkel
        • For the dummy and the kart
        • Kart snorkel is under the engine intake.
          • Currently only for the non cvt engines on the standard and irs axles
          • Not fully tested as of yet, but the irs snorkel is stable
        • Dummy snorkel is...
  3. A huge update!

    nachtstiel
    I say this every so often, but this update is probably the biggest one yet! It addresses old issues as well as introduces many new and updated parts and meshes. As per usual, an update like this one may require a cache clear to get all meshes to display and to display properly.

    Full list of changes below

    Frames:
    • Fixed triangle collisions
    • Removed rear triangles on the standard frame
    • Disabled mesh breaking on the main frame meshes
    Wheels:
    • Fixed strange...
  4. New Rear End

    nachtstiel
    THIS UPDATE INTRODUCES AND CHANGES MANY MESHES. IF ANY DO NOT APPEAR, A CACHE CLEAR WILL BE NEEDED. YOU CAN ALSO DELETE THE FOLDER "0.27/TEMP/VEHICLES/BIGKART" TO CLEAR OUT THE OLD CACHED MESHES.

    This update is quite extensive and completely replaces the existing rear subframe along with many mesh updates and various general fixes. This is by far the best-performing independent rear setup so far and it required far less tinkering to get it to feel right.

    This...
  5. One wheel rear update!

    nachtstiel
    This update focuses on the one wheel rear config.


    One Wheel config specific:
    • Revamp of the rear suspension articulation
    • Changing the engine mesh
      • updated the engine mesh to the new 150cc engine
    • Fixing missing textures
    • Adjusted the rear coilovers
    • Fixing the speedometer
      • This involved creating an entirely new powertrain tree
    General:
    • Fixed left side drift
    • Fixed instability issued with the front wings
    • Fixed small...
  6. New Engine mesh and stuff

    nachtstiel
    This update adds a few things:

    • New 150cc engine mesh
      • This one is almost as close as I can get to the real thing
      • This will not be a replacement for the existing 250cc engines since rear mounting this engine will be nearly impossible on this frame.
    • The standard rear frame can be broken off
    • The bypass coilover configs have been retuned.
    • Slight changes to the front suspension arms so they hopefully will not hyperextend without breaking
  7. Moar STUFF

    nachtstiel
    This update originally focused on fixing textures, but then the update happened and broke a few things. This update expanded to focus on AWD and off-road performance. Namely, it includes an implementation of the bypass shocks new to 0.27 and a LSD center diff.

    As usual, please let me know if you come across anything that seems wrong.


    Changes:
    • Minor changes to the frame and spoilers
    • Tweaks to engine sounds
    • Fixed the widened coilovers
    • Added new center diffs
      • LSD...
  8. More betterer

    nachtstiel
    This update is fairly packed. It primarily focuses on wheel stability, but there are tons of other changes:

    Frames:
    • split frame meshes into three parts
    • changed shape of front subframe
    Engines:
    • Added a new 350/500/750/1000cc engine mesh
    Suspension:
    • Adjusted front coilovers to match new geometry
    • Adjusted rear coilovers
    • Added a new front coilover mesh
    Wheels:
    • Significantly improved stability at high speeds
    • Added a new...
  9. New meshes and configs!

    nachtstiel
    This update is primarily for the significantly more optimized 250cc engine mesh. I also found some minor details about the true original engine that was on the kart that make it much more fun to drive with, so I am now including that as part of the mod. It only has 9ft lb of torque, but the additional final reduction from the drivetrain made it work properly.

    List of changes:

    • Engines
      • A new mesh for the non-kart-based engines that use a CVT
        • 150, 250, and 450cc...
  10. More oopsies!

    nachtstiel
    This update fixes the issue with the corrupted texture. It also adds the new mesh to most/all of the 250/450cc engines. The Predator engine will continue to use the other mesh.

    Full list:

    • Texture fixes
    • Mesh updates
    • Widened suspension
      • Heavily WIP, although it is at least stable.
      • No configs for it yet. To find them look for the Wide options in the front suspensions and the Independent rear suspension
