    I've started working on a Ford Fusion, the 2013 model. All's going well, except I don't know where to go from here. I plan on doing a very basic interior, since I don't know much about (Don't have the car available). I also have no idea how to do the suspension/engine. What kind of detail does the suspension/engine need, and are they necessary for a beta release (How much of a roll do they play in the functionality of the car?) ? Also, where are some good sources for detailed suspension pictures? Google is not delivering good pics. Also floor board pics?

    Progress So Far:
    • Original Post (12/29/2013): Doors, Fenders, Bumpers, Hood, Roof
    • Edit 1 (12/29/2013): Grille
    • Edit 2 (12/29/2013): Skirt, Floorboard, General Improvements

    Anyways, here are the pictures so far:

    I was working on a 2014 Ford Mondeo which is exactly the same car. See my thread here:
    http://www.beamng.com/threads/3044-Ford-Mondeo-mk5

    I've pretty much abandoned it now, if you like I'll send you my version over and you can see the differences between the 2?

    I'm not saying I know what I'm doing (I don't! :D ), but I managed to get some of the details into my model. I struggled to find reference pictures too - despite spending days on Google images, especially for what's under the bodywork so a lot of mine is guesswork underneath the body.

    Yah pretty much. Where I'm from, I've never really heard much about the Mondeo and Falcon, other than they are basically the same car.

    Ford falcon is the same category vehicle but does not utilise the fusion/mondeo platform.

    The fusion from 2013 onwards is a rebadged mondeo.

    Interesting. I've searched on wikipedia, and it all definitely backs up what you said.

    I think fords current plan is to switch away from making different cars for different markets and start merging their various international model lines into 1 global lineup. Seems between mondeo and old fusion they decided to keep mondeo and then badge as fusion in the US to keep continuity perhaps? You guys have all heard of the fusion but not the mondeo, badge the mondeo as a fusion and suddenly you guys have half an idea regarding what to expect.


    Oh, ontopic: model looks excellent, look forward to seeing it ingame.

    Although similar, the 2012 model is different. I am trying to get a basic version in game, but Jbeam is really pissing me off. Its basically unusable. unless you already learned how. If someone who knows it pretty well would be willing to teach me, that'd be great. I understand JSON on a basic level, and can write code in a few other languages, but Jbeam is killing me. I can't promise I'll be back on tonight, but if anyone is willing to teach me a thing or two, PM me.
