Beta ETK 800-Series Improved Interior 0.7

Adds more realism and detail

  1. Milendur
    Modifications I had laying around for a while that I made for myself but they slowly added up for a whole mod so I decided to share it
    I recommend reading the full description for all the small details

    • Instead of just a texture with needles on top it's now 3D modeled

    • Added board computer functionality with the ability to switch between 5 different menus (consumption, range, average speed, date and empty). By default b switches menus and resets them on hold. Alt+b hold resets trip computer. These key binding can be changed in the Controls settings

    • Slightly improved dashboard (mainly the shape around the gauge cluster)
    • Readouts only update every ~500ms which is more realistic
    • Updated ABS, TCS, ESC, Park brake etc.. symbols
    • Gauge rings (the orange circles), they can be turned off from the parts menu
    • Reduced ttSport gauge cluster to 8k rpm redline
    • Improved wiper/signal stalks, center rear view mirror and sun visors (new 3D models)
    • Triggers on the signal stalk for board computer and trip reset
    • Lowered steering wheel (in order to see gauge cluster better and vanilla one was too high anyways)
    • White footwell lighting (no light with stripped interior)
    • All interior buttons now have backlight
    • Efficiency bar changes color depending on economy and gearbox mode
    • Feature to turn on gauge cluster backlight without the headlights being on to save fps

    You need to select Interior Milendur to see the parts. This gauge cluster is positioned differently so you might need to adjust your camera position. Ambient Occlusion can make the gauge cluster look dull. It is recommended to use at least 1.2 game brightness. Some of the showcase photos may be old and latest version can look better/different. Please give feedback if you notice strange visuals on your end because it can look different on some graphics settings and systems.

    If you have an issue please DM me or use the discussion thread before giving a review:

    After every update it's a good idea to clear ETK 800 cache from your BeamNG userfolder

    Lovely mod! A must use if you love ETKs. Do you plan to add digital options in the future?

    Great mod! However, I'd also like to suggest making a 6000 rpm diesel version for and that would pretty much complete it.

      I might put a zip file in the discussion thread for people that need the 5500 rpm diesel redline

    Great mod which i always use now! But it would be nice if there would be support for the ETK800 Hybrid mod by Arcanox within the gauges since if i want to use it properly i have to not use this mod. It would be nice if there were compatibility between these 2 mods which i use all the time :)

      Use the discussion thread and send pictures of your problem please. Also after every mod update it's good to clear your cache

    This is great! Another thing that i think you should add is realistic response on the needles, so they respond a little slower and more delayed just like in real life. There is car mods that have it and it improves the realism quite a lot when driving in first person

      I agree and they already added this in 0.34 but it stopped working on ETK 800 for some reason while K series has it. I sent them support ticket and they said it will be fixed.

    Didn't realize how bad the current interior is for the ETK 800 after using this mod. The quality of interiors seems a bit neglected recently on a lot of older vehicles.

      When they turned their attention to ETK 800 in 0.28 i was hoping for interior improvement, this didn't happen so i took the matter in my own hands with what i can do
