    About a year ago, I made a body model. But I had a lot of other things to do, so I abandoned the development.
    After some time I had time for modding and decided to make Audi TT MK3, but that's another story.
    After the Audi development I took a little break and in March I resumed the Golf MK4 development. Considering that modding is a hobby for me, I spent about 3-4 hours a day. At this pace, the development lasted about 8 months. In real life I drive a golf mk4 and I love this car very much, so it was important for me to make a mod of very high quality. Now let's talk about the mod itself.

    Features:
    High-quality.
    Full PBR.
    100% Jbeamed.
    20 configurations.
    Air Suspension.
    3-door Hatch
    5-door Hatch (WIP)
    Sedan (Wip)
    Wagon (Wip)
    Coupe (WIP)
    Stock
    GTI R32
    Widebody
    Off-road
    Rally
    1.4
    1.6
    1.8 Atmo + Turbo
    1.9 Diesel
    3.2 Atmo + Single Turbo + Twin Turbo
    MT 5 speed
    MT 6 speed
    AT 4 speed
    AT 5 speed
    DSG6
    DSG7
    DSG7 Diesel
    Sequential 6 speed
    16inch Ronal Montreal
    18inch OZ Aristo
    18inch + 19inch BBS CH
    18inch + 20inch Audi S-line 9 spoke
    20inch Audi Rotors
    20inch SSR MS1R
    20inch Rotiform BLQ
    20inch Rotiform ROC (Colorable)

    Development process:

    Of course, 80% of the work remained behind the scenes, especially the main body model because I did it a long time ago and then I didn’t even think about making a mod from this model

    These screenshots were taken quite a long time ago, at the moment the model is optimized even better, later I will publish up-to-date screenshots.

    unfortunately I didn’t take screenshots of the texturing, maybe later I’ll take screenshots and add

    I spent a lot of time working with jbeam. jbeam of such cars as: FCV, Covet, Midsize, Scintilla, ETKC and possibly some others were taken as a basis. Every part has been worked out in detail, there are still some small problems, but it already works quite good. The suspension deserves special attention, as suspension geometry is a very important matter, so I spent a lot of time on the suspension settings. At the moment there are some problems with the suspension; if you make a powerful rear-wheel drive car, the rear suspension behaves a little unstable. It does not break or deform, there are just slight vibrations on the body

    I made a sunroof, it is fully jbeamed

    The tricky jbeam system is used for work

    2 rails are used for operation, so that it moves not in a straight line but along a curve

    Hydros are used to set it in motion for slide and tilt

    Updates:

    fixed missing textures in the demo version

    fixed tail lights JBEAM

    fixed the turbocharger curve on the 1.8T

    fixed the missing cylinder head cover on some turbocharger variants

    Changed the position of the rear brake calipers

    Changed rear brake models

    made the standard muffler quieter, and slightly changed the parameters of the standard exhaust system

    now golf wheels can be used on other cars
    New features
    • Fully animated sunroof
    Tricky JBEAM system is used for work
    2 rails are used for operation, so that it moves not in a straight line but along a curve
    hydros are used to set it in motion for slide and tilt
    In addition to the good jbeam, I wrote a lua script that controls it. Firstly, it cannot tilt if it is slided and vice versa. It also lowers a little before the slide, just like in real life
    • 2 police configs (EU and USA)
    • USA Police Skin
    • USA Police Lightbar
    Сhanges
    • Much work has been done on the brakes, they still have beamng models, but now the models are sized exactly the same as the physical size.
    • Added racing and rally brakes.
    • Carbon ceramic brakes now have the correct model (from Scintilla for now). We plan to make our own brake models entirely.
    • Added animated spindles
    • Cabin sounds have been redesigned
    • The windows have been tinted, it works like a skin.
    That is, you don’t need to change every glass to tint your car.
    There are 3 tinting options: full tinting, tinting only the rear windows, without tinting.
    The glass textures have also been slightly changed.
    • taillights and interior lights are not always on (only if the headlights are on)
    Resolved Issues
    • In rare cases, the drive shaft breaks (it broke due to the ultra heavy engine mount)
    • When the fuel level is low, the battery charge indicator lights up instead of the corresponding low fuel level indicator on the dashboard
    • The odometer shows incorrect data (in the script there was a formula for miles per hour, now kilometers per hour)
    • The year of manufacture was written backwards in the description.
    • Incorrect operation of the high beam indicator on the dashboard
    • The mirrors were configured incorrectly, they now work correctly
    New body types: Sedan and Coupe

    Now, in addition to the hatchback, you can also ride in a sedan and coupe.
    This is not a separate mod, the body selection is available in the parts selection menu.

    1.jpg 3.jpg BeamNGdrivex642024-01-1020-34-29.jpg BeamNGdrivex642024-01-2300-07-22.jpg BeamNGdrivex642024-01-2300-20-27.jpg BeamNGdrivex642024-01-2300-21-50.jpg BeamNGdrivex642024-01-2300-27-55.jpg BeamNGdrivex642024-01-2300-29-06.jpg BeamNGdrivex642024-01-2314-50-06.jpg BeamNGdrivex642024-01-2315-06-10.jpg
    2.jpg

    In addition to the body is also available front end Bora/Jetta
    You have the creative freedom to combine different body types and front end, resulting in unique variations.
    These are commonly referred to as "Gora" (Bora with Golf front end) and "Bolf" (Golf with Bora front end). Furthermore, in the future, a 5-door hatchback and wagon will be added to these options.

    Added support for few mods

    Remake gauges
    Many people asked to add different gauges, so I decided to do a lot of work and completely reworked them

    Frame165.jpg

    There are now 3 gauges to choose from:
    • Regular
    • GTI 25th Anniversary Edition
    • R32
    There are also 4 skins available for them(for R32 gauges only 2 skins, no diesel ones):
    • Metric gasoline
    • Imperial gasoline
    • Metric diesel
    • Imperial diesel
    Also on the GTI and R32 dashboards a non-linear speedometer is used (only in metric dashboards), if you look at them carefully you will notice that the needle does not move linearly, up to 100 mph one speedometer division is equal to 20 mph, and after 40 mph, for operation I wrote a LUA script for such a speedometer

    New Skin

    • Black roof

    Small Changes
    Many small changes were also made, all of which I no longer remember

    I’m still thinking, but there is a high probability that after release the mod will be available for free or for a very small amount

    I've been using this mod for 2 days now, there are a couple of nuances, but overall it's one of the best mods. Рow long have I been waiting for this mod, I used the audi tt mk3 mod, it was awesome quality. I'm sure it will be better here

    God damn, looking at screenshots it looks great, can't wait to try it. You could at least put 1.9 tdi in demo but ok. Hope it will be free at release

    Nice. I'd like to see base configs, too.
    However, please keep in mind that you can't sell real life car mods.

    Therefore, most likely the mod will be free at release. I'm not sure about this yet

    Tested mod and I must say I like it but could you adjust steering wheel position as it covers half of the gauges in this position

    HI! Congratulations for the work done, the mod is really very beautiful and realistic. With this post I just wanted to point out some small bugs I found while using it:
    1)The sound of the direction indicators cannot be heard
    2)When you have the low beams on and you flash the high beams, the latter indicator lights up
    3) The mirrors don't work

    Now this, is one quality mod. Seems to be built from the ground up, and as close to the real thing as possible. Totally unexpected, but a very welcome surprise.

    Will it have USDM/LADM (Latin American Domestic Market) parts, facelifts, and RHD configs?
    And will these facelift models be made? These are the Volkswagen City Golf and City Jetta, respectively - these were sold in Canada, Latin America, China, and Mexico.
