    (Originally released privately on December 14, 2022, then was released publicly for the first time on December 8, 2023 or so. This is the official post, if you find this anywhere else besides here, it is not authentic and I cannot guarantee that your computer is safe when downloading reposts)

    OFFICIAL MODLAND RELEASE POST: https://www.modland.net/beamng.drive-mods/cars/2016-2024-audi-r8.html


    I originally released this mod a long time ago. It wasn't great, it had a lot of issues and it was constantly being leaked and modified without my permission. Therefore I've decided to just update a ton of issues, as well as add some new content.

    Please note that this mod conflicts with Agent's old Audi R8 mod AND feway's Poland map and any previous version of the Audi R8 mod, including leaked versions off of ModLand.

    This mod is a
    mesh slap off of the Scintilla. You can see this by the doors breaking off when flipped over, I still haven't fixed the door hinge. If you don't like mesh slaps, don't download!


    Credits to @SimulatorAdventures, @.Neilogical and @.Camodo Gaming and thank you for sourcing from the BeamNG forums!


    Before I say anything else, here are the current updates PLANNED for this revised mod:

    - more bodykits
    - fixed jbeams for Hycade bodykit
    - exposed openings to the engine bay on Spyder configuration
    - fix door hinges

    Note that image #2 to #5 are OLD pictures.

    This mod was made so long ago that I do not have all the model sources and completely forgot. That's all. I refuse to put effort into a thread. This mod is NOT good at crashing, and I am working on improving that in later updates. Please try to understand.
    DO NOT EXTRACT THE MOD, IT WILL LIKELY BREAK. Do not repost please.

    Feel free to suggest anything you want to see for the mod, and I'll see what I can do. I'm not a great mod creator, but I'm willing to try my best.

    Pretty cool mod, one thing I noticed, it doesn't have Power Steering equiped, which on the real life models they came standard out of the factory.

    It's based off of the gearing I found online, but you can always change the gearing yourself (Drive Ratio)

    When the door hinges are fixed, do you plan on making the doors openable?

    Likely no, I haven’t been able to get around door triggers for some reason. I’ll give it a shot, of course.

    While you´re at it, could you also please fix the slight mirroring of the inside windshield? It gives a dizzy, nauseous feeling when "driving" from cockpit perspective.

    Well the Sunstorm is inspired by the Audi R8 so there is some similarity.
