Cars 2005 Ford Transit 1.0

[Baron Bergamot]

I have a version, while not designed for drifting does a fine job of it. I've been meaning to bugfix the OG transit and release this alongside for like 2 years now, though as always struggled to find the time to do so.

That looks like a lot of fun!

I'm guessing engine swap, better suspension, bigger alloys wider tires? And a DPD Express livery?

Maybe a drift version with increased lock and handbrake maybe? *nudge nudge, wink wink*

Hi guys, i have a small problem with this mod:
only when using the bonnet view, a horizontal shadow-area appears some meters in front of the car, it stays there even when rotating the car (so it isnt related to track lighting) and goes from side to side of the screen.

it's a minor issue, but i prefer to drive with bonnet view and it's been an annoyance.

Does anyone know what is causing it and how could i resolve it?
thanks in advance

I actually managed to fix it: changing the bonnet camera height position from the original 1.01 to 1.06 eliminates the slight problem with shadows in front of the car

Beggars can't be choosers with regards to SFX; there are almost zero SFX modders out there so to get custom SFX for this at all was already a win. IIRC it was recorded from a Land Rover Defender with the same engine as the transit, so i wouldn't say its nothing like it.

As for rain effects, I can't really help that I created this before such a thing existed. Catering for CSP effects that would come in the future wasn't really something I could anticipate...

If i get time I may update this but one look at my history should deter anyone from counting on it.

Sounds nothing like a transit, rain effects appear on dashboard. Other than that, amazing.

try with this sound mod

I'm sorry you seem offended by my lack of contribution to this poxy website that is a nightmare to navigate.

And I'm sorry that you feel that way, as the modder in question is a highly respected one in the community you can surely understand why you got a robust response.
And I'm curious, in what way is RD a nightmare to navigate?

Purely trying to provide some constructive criticism.

No worries, i was simply offering an explanation of why things are the way they are, not casting aside feedback.
If I'm able to get round to it, the dashboard will definitely get fixed.

No way to reset the timer manually in AC afaik.

Using the Tourist layout will time you from bridge to gantry though, so you don't need to manually reset the timer.

The transit sound mod was recorded from my old Focus TDCi. Rest in peace that car, you had a great engine and served me well!

 

[Build4Power]

Is there a possibility for you to make a version that is lefthand drive for us europians?

 

[NightEye87]

Not gonna happen I'm afraid. They ran a RHD car on Top Gear. This is the car I'm trying to replicate, hence no LHD.

 

[Build4Power]

I understand, even when i would make a donation you wouldn't be up for it?
