Gavril Barstow IV ('98 - '04) - The muscles of time, the power of the road!

The world of BeamNG.drive is replenished with one more detailed and high-quality modification - Gavril Barstow IV ('98 - '04). This car is a classic mid-size maslkar of the late 90's with high-quality textures. The developer paid attention to every detail, from the appearance to the physics of behavior on the road.

One of the key features of the mod is the presence of two body options - coupe and convertible. For the latter there is a working soft top with elaborate mechanics. Interaction with the car has also reached a new level: you can open panels and windows. Additionally, the mod supports career mode, which means that the car can be fully utilized within the main game, not just in free riding.

The physics of the model is created at a professional level - everything is worked out to the last detail. An interesting detail was the introduction of internal collisions - this means that in accidents not only the body is damaged, but also the elements inside the cabin. This level of elaboration is rare even among paid mods.

In addition, the developer took care of the variety of configurations - there are 23 of them in the mod. Among them you can find both stock versions and modifications with various tunings, powerful engines and improved handling. Completing the picture are seven new sets of wheels, which allow you to create a unique appearance of the car. If you just want to add Gavril Barstow IV in road traffic, there is a simplified version for use in the stream of cars.

The mod is paid! It is available for purchase b all owners will get access to all future updates, bug fixes and additional content. However, it is forbidden to distribute the mod without permission as it is a paid mod. If you love 90's maslkars and want to add some real quality content to your game you can buy the mod at the link below.

1989 Procyon Avior - An era that never gets old!

1989 Procyon Avior is a real representative of high class among BeamNG.drive cars. This mod takes us to the late 80's, when automakers were actively fighting for supremacy in the segment of luxury sedans. It was developed by the Japanese company Hirochi specifically for export. Avior became the founder of the Procyon brand and is recognized for its build quality, reliability and attention to detail.

Design and Features

The design is in the spirit of the luxury European sedans of the late '80s, but retains the signature Japanese styling. In 1993, the car received a technological upgrade. Thanks to this, it was able to remain competitive. In Japan, the model was sold under the name Hirochi Theria, but in the rest of the world it was fixed as Procyon Avior.

Under the hood of this beauty hides a 4.0-liter atmospheric V8, producing 248 horsepower and 312 Nm of torque. It works in tandem with a 4-speed automatic, which transmits power to the rear wheels. The impressive weight of 1800 kg makes it massive, but at the same time stable on the road.

About the mod

Enhanced Interior Camera - realistic overloads like in life!

Do you like to drive in BeamNG.drive from the first person, but the feeling of speed and dynamics seems insufficient? Then the Enhanced Interior Camera mod will fix that! It adds realistic camera effects that make the ride in the cockpit more exciting and lively.

Now the camera tilts slightly backward when accelerating, and tilts forward when braking. When drifting, the screen begins to shake slightly, conveying a sense of chaotic sliding. At speeds above 100 mph (160 km/h), there's a subtle vibration that amplifies the effect of high speed. If you hit a wall or take a hard hit, the camera jerks forward to mimic the driver's reaction. This is especially cool when jumping and sudden changes in g-load - the camera reacts to strong overloads.

The developers of the mod have also taken care of the comfort of players: in the settings you can adjust the effects or disable the shaking by selecting Smooth preset. There are also presets for VR and options to fix the horizon.

Enhanced Chase Camera - your camera now lives in motion!

At high speeds, a slight vibration appears. At sharp maneuvers and shocks, the camera reacts to overloads. The steering remains comfortable. The camera itself feels smooth and responsive.

In the settings you can adjust the behavior of the camera to yourself: change the degree of shaking, viewing angle and other parameters.

Realistic Headlights Edited - headlights that shine like in life!

Finalized version of the popular mod, which improves the lighting of headlights in BeamNG.drive. The author changed jbeam parameters, updated some textures and added new lighting options for many cars.

Now the headlights not only look better, but also shine as it happens in real life. The mod features halogen, LED and HID headlights, each with their own features: halogen headlights give a soft and warm light, LED headlights have high brightness and range, and HID lighting creates a powerful blue-white beam. High Performance LEDs are available for some cars, such as Scintilla, providing illumination up to 180 meters.

Some cars, such as the ETK 800, ETK K and Bastion, have received swiveling headlights that can be disabled by swapping the bumper or turning on the fog lights. In addition, aftermarket LED headlights have been added, which give clearer illumination than halogen headlights but are inferior to factory LEDs.

The mod affects many popular cars including Ibishu Pessima, Gavril Barstow, ETK C, Hirochi Sunburst and others. Performance is virtually unaffected, although a slight loss of FPS is possible.

Brake Glow Mod - hot disks, adrenaline in the blood!

Now brakes in BeamNG.drive can not only overheat, but also look accordingly! Brake Glow Mod adds the effect of glowing brake disks, which begin to glow with intense braking.

The mod uses a flexible texture system that smoothly changes the brightness of the glow depending on the temperature of the brakes. Under heavy loads, the disks first turn slightly red, then turn bright orange, and at extreme overheating can even turn slightly white. The effect looks natural thanks to the updated rendering system, finalized with the help of LucasBE.

The mod supports most standard cars, including sports models, maslkars, SUVs and even miniature Ibishu Pigeon and Wigeon. The latest update adds support for the updated Ibishu 200BX.

Brake glow not only adds beauty, but also helps to better feel the behavior of the car - if the brakes are glowing for too long, then you should expect their efficiency to deteriorate soon.

MK's Dynamic Weather - Control the weather yourself!

You can't have too much dynamic weather! MK's Dynamic Weather is the mod that adds this special physics to BeamNG. Yes, the game engine doesn't allow you to go wild with graphic effects at the level of AAA-projects, but even with the current capabilities this script adds an amazing atmosphere.

Rain, wind and... tornado?

The mod offers several types of weather: from a sunny day to a real storm with thunderstorms, heavy rain and strong winds. The most interesting thing is the dynamic wind gusts, which not only create the effect of presence, but also affect the cars! If the wind becomes particularly strong, the car may even be slightly blown off the road.

There is even a tornado! It chases the player, interacts with physical objects (including cars, walls and even mattresses), and during its approach the density of fog is now slightly less - a refined effect from version 4.2.

Realism in details

Roads become slippery during rain. However, this works only on terrane pavements (asphalt from meshes, such as bridges, is not supported yet). Temperature, lighting, clouds and precipitation change depending on the conditions.

Yes, the mod is still in beta, and the precipitation graphics could be better. But the mere fact of having live wind, slippery roads, and even tornadoes makes the gameplay more interesting and challenging. It's especially cool that it even works in career mode and scenarios.
