Submeshed Polonez Caro

Hi all,

This was my first vehicle mod - it's not very good. It's a submeshed mod, meaning the body is made of textured submesh, shaped by the node-and-beam structure.
That means it has no mesh (3d model) and doesn't deform realistically.

Notable features:
- texturedashboard interior dash
- custom on-screen gui hud
- new dashlights and flare types that were introduced recently, meaning you get full sidelights/low-beam/high-beam/foglights
- materialflarebindings on some lights
- custom help screen (CTRL+T) which shows keyboard shortcuts for different lights
- animated switches, steering column stalks, custom prop steering wheel, etc.
- defined ropables, can be picked up by a crane via several points

Guys, I know it's hard, but please stop shitposting in this thread 😞 or I'm gonna get in trouble for starting this dumpster fire 😰

Also, in case it wasn't clear, yes - this will be released eventually (please don't ask when) and it won't be very good, so don't get your hopes up. There's still some small stuff I need to do before then.

Last Update: (see the edit date on this post)

Done ✅
- re-did front grill and hood
- add missing indicator lights to Flat-black Gauges and customize appropriately to better fit the car
- add visual gearshift indicator to the hud?
- add a radio antenna 🟠
- siren for police
- better help screen with updated icons
- make wheels dds instead of png, should help with them looking off-center, hopefully
- fix the seats so they don't stick out of the bottom
- add crappy rear seats
- placeholder dummy dash for when texturedashboard is not rendered (when not in vehicle)
- maybe re-do the texcoords
- maybe clean up the skins
- upgraded police lightbar flares to animtexture
- flip gradients on dash shelf and dash cover, they look backwards
- CTRL+1 materialflarebindings manual?
- new mesh steering wheel
- colored gear indicator on interior dash! Neutral and Reverse
- added two-colored rpm "shift-up" lights
- custom screetch/drift sound
- added wipers/blinkers/highbeam steering column stalks with anims
- added mesh prop switches with anims for the interior dash
- added windshield wipers, front and rear
- shortened hatch glass, was too long
- more floor and a radio and gear shifter in the middle
- materialflarebindings for turn signals
- added rear license plate, no cutout
- add_anim for steering column stalks
- golden alloys for Subaru
- added wheel wells
- materialflarebindings for foglights
- update the outdated versions (yes, except Szerszeń)

To-Do in the Future... 🟦
- autogearindicator inside and on the hud
- interior dash from Police into all versions
- maybe actually make the mirrors work
- add rear view mirror
- maybe interior turbo gauge if the car has turbo
- mudguards?
- materialflarebindings for reverse?
- clutch/brake/gas pedals?
- make a better loop for the screetch sound
- test and reduce RAM usage as much as possible
- backlit dash/center console/switches

Cancelled ❌
- possibly make the interior dashboard backlit
- possibly make the gui hud backlit
- maybe rotators for the police lightbar
- consider re-making oil and temp gauges and fitting them somewhere
- replace temporary icons in gui hud and make it actually good (replaced whole gui hud instead)
- materialflarebindings switches (will use mesh with anims instead)
- maybe add wipers and the wipers plastic/metal cover (added just the wipers)
- make front windshield not flat?? (nah)
- cutout in rear bumper for the license plate (no cutout)


Yes, I know some of these things sound like they should take a few minutes and they will, I just have to get around to finally doing them

Oh, also, it will come with a crappy trailer.

please don't notice the seats sticking out of the bottom of the car, thanks

in my opinion, the trailer looks very nice
 
the polonez szerzeń in the image under text that reads "Here is what I have so far:" and the image under text that reads "In four versions, for now:" it has a different grille.
