[TwinTurBros]

I think a tutorial of making a car using 3D fixtures could be cool and useful.

I don’t even have this game yet but I find it awesome to learn the stuff for when I get it

[csl]

This will help me in so many ways. I will be watching this over and over again to get things right.

The Patchwork mod is integrated in the vanilla game now btw, having the mod installed just gives you a duplicate of each type with slightly different thumbnails.

Please keep making these tutorials, you are amazing at making cars.

Sarcastic version would be:
So you need blender...

Just to the right of the headlight mod you used for the grill bars there's another mod included in the same mod pack that allows you to add pieces to add inset separations in the headlights and some other reshaping, but they also make for good border pieces for the lights and grills. I honestly think they're better for forming the edges than the slope pieces. That said, their default placement is just slightly below the headlight glass, so you have to do some juggling sometimes to make it look right.

These tutorials are the best thank you

Thanks for tutorial! Nice, genius way to make special front and rear lights easier.

Hey!! Here's an idea: Try to make a car with "inverted" torque and hp. Like, it starts with a lot of power, but slowly decreases when the revs increase

Give us 300mph shopping cart
Btw love you

Finally I will be able to make cars look not like speedy blobs of disappointment

Great totorial- note, I mostly build my cars for the acceleration and handling, the design is second to me but I still spend time on it in order to get a good looking and fast car, I tend to get really good handling.

Do you know how to make sure the lights work properly in beamng. Been making some short films but the lights never work right.

[Vorrimade]

Both the reverse dog tape mod and glowsticks mod aren't compatible with the latest version. Are there any good alternatives to these for now?

[midnightchannelclub]

im seeing this video like 3 years after release. The patchworks mod is no longer working? Because i subscribed to it on the workshop but in game it doesn't appear to be working. Anyone could help me out?

[ThatSlowSaturn]

how do you keep fixtures from locking in the middle in the turbo update

[felixporter]

What mod is it with all of the sponsorships

[bartek]

I made custom grille and vents, but gave up on headlights :c
not enough fixtures XD
