I just finished a kart; will post soon. We should do a mario-kart style event; bit faster pace (500cc max) with more wacky designs. Maybe even include mini-bikes.
So I just learned that pac clips dont transfer into holoclips.... after doing an entire Me262 body... fml

I feel your pain. I usually name all of the holos in PAC so i can easily recognize them and notice which ones need to be clipped and then add a holoClip under it in the converted E2.
Working on some new mech's!

Sorry to hear that man, I should have given a better warning on the previous page when I ran into the same problem.
Nah don't worry. Cheese told me how to manually do them in the e2 without having trouble.
While avoiding my engineering homework, I started making a trash destroyer.

Anyone got a cliffnotes for getting cars to handle decently in Gmod without dicking around with fins and thrusters and such? Preferrably one that doesn't require any E2 knowledge? I'm absolutely adoring the buggy I built and posted earlier, except it has one major issue:
Crippling understeer.
I've played around with physprop materials but all that got me was more or less braking stability. I can't make the corners around gm_carconstruct's highway any better in it than I can my NPR or my rally truck, really anything I've ever built. 40-45mph or so.
I mean you can't turn corners going 60kph, that's just how physics work. The sharper the turn the slower you gotta move(obviously), also try increasing the turn angle of the wheels to like 45 degrees or so.
I see everyone else able to make those corners at damn near 55, people can drift, etc. There's something I'm missing. A 430kg AWD dune buggy should not understeer like a fucking boxtruck, it should be nimble, agile, able to drift around at much higher speeds than mine can. It frustrates the hell out of me that it does anyway.
Well idk what to tell you then. They're probably using setang or something idk... try using that or just increase the angle until you find it satisfying.
I use setang steering, too. And turning the steering angle up higher doesn't help, A: I already have a max travel of 45 degrees, B: When a car starts understeering the last thing you do is put even more steering into it, and C: I'm using proportional input to drive so I'm finding the understeer happening at maybe 10 or 15 degrees of deflection.
Sorry man, dunno how to help then, haven't really had problems like this before.
'Sa'll Good, homey. Was kinda hopin' someone like Jackpody could chime in, hell it might be a nice topic for another of his lovely how-to videos. And, hell, if it wasn't for Jack's vids I'd still be using suspension tech Zeos Pantera perfected in GM10
I'm guessing your vehicle has nearly all of it's weight on rear wheels? If so, then add some weight on front wheels.
People who do that almost certainly use some sort of magic, as in e2 shenanigans and basically everything you said you don't want to use. Simplest solution is to put weak fins on the sides of your wheels but this can make your thing too snappy and pretty much undrivable. If you want to wrestle your car a little bit, use rear wheel brakes to get your thing to drift. Scandinavian flicking(KANSEI DORIFTO?) works rather well in combination with the handbrake. I kinda like that myself, feels like I'm actually doing the work there instead of some fancy auto-countersteer stability traction control fuckmebees driving the car for me. Much like the real life war between electronic driver aids and barebone mechanics.
Weight balance is pretty much right in the middle, actually. Maybe slightly forward of the middle now that I've swapped the flat four I originally used for an R7 and rejiggled the driveline to make that work.
Just finished building a Keo M35 2.5T Cargo Truck, not sure what exact model it is or year.

Still some holos to do and maybe replace some props with holos to take down the prop count a little (337 with axles+base etc), Completed over the course of about a week or so (On and off building and goofing around) Let me know what you think and maybe suggest something to do with it.
I got tired of not having an AA platform, and I didn't want to deal with guns and shit. So this came into fruition:

Can volley 16 stingers, and has enough ammo for 4-ish reloads.
Weight: 10t
Armor: 15-45mm
Engine: That diesel V6 with fuel.
The racks pivot +45 up, 0 deg down, and has a traverse arc of about 14 degrees. Fun little thing that putters about.

Your suspension detail is really great.
