Development Update #36
Hi everyone! This update shows the interior customization, including many new types of interior parts.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKp_11-UW7I
The S15 has the same performance mods as the previous video; 400hp with stock tires and no handling upgrades.
Importing and setting up interior customization took way longer than expected due to many, many small fixes required. It's offset our time...

Hello! This update mostly consists of a short gameplay video. A lot of work is being done right now on importing all the cars, so I need to get back to doing that.
S15 handles well, new handling is snappier loss of grip and much more acceleration when traction is lost. It's much easier and very satisfying to chain drifts between hairpins.
Screen shake on impact has replaced all VHS impact effects the prologue had. They had a charm to them but were mostly annoying. The final versio...

Hi everyone, this update contains lots of in-game screenshots. I will explain each one in the text here.
Image 1 is a in-game photomode shot whilst parked up at the LTJMart during freeroam.
Image 2 shows the new ability to open doors and hood inside the garage freeroam and the new SR20DET model. This screenshot is raw from in-game photomode.
Image 3 shows the new part unlock system. This system will effect different part tiers, so for example you will unlock all Circuit Hood...

Hi guys, today's update shows; new garage, new car storage, a ton of Stagea zenki+kouki bodykits, as well as some S13 coupe and F360 ones.
The garage pictured is the first garage of the Private Alpha, it has 1 car storage spot and all the same features as the Prologue garage.
The single car storage spot doesn't matter anymore, since we now have the "24/7 Car Storage", featured in pictures 5, 6 and 7. It is a parking garage where you can store as many cars as you want and access an...

Hello everyone, small Mount Haruna gameplay update with some screenshots and a lot of new car content.
The car in the gameplay screenshots is the new S15 model! The quality increase in the new cars is very obvious (The number plate format is wrong because it was thrown together for testing).
The stagea has more non-OEM customization coming, both Kouki and Zenki will be their own cars.
The 1JZ and B16 don't have textures yet, the colours in the screenshots are just temporary....

Hi guys! Mount Haruna update this week including PA/Meetspot, Gas Station, Car Dealership and Car Storage preview.
The Mount Haruna Car Dealership and Car Storage have unfinished lighting, you'll see it in the next update.
New traffic cars for Mount Haruna have started being made, they are not imported yet hence why the old traffic cars are still visible in some of the screenshots. The JZ100 MK2 in the screenshot is also an old model.
Car Interiors are starting to be texture...

Hi everyone, huge wheel list update this week.
Supercars are being added earlier than expected, this is because a new very talented 3D artist wanted to work on models but they are only interested in making exotics. So to take advantage of this opportunity, supercars that were going to be made post-launch are getting made now instead. This artist doesn't work on anything else so no time is wasted. Supercars will be added 1 at a time and only after a lot of typical japanese cars are added...

Hello!
This update has new supercar, Z10 Soarer, 4 door integra, lots of bodykits for evo 4/5 and GDA/GDB subarus, hako c10 parts and S15 customization rigging preview.
New customization parts will be shown once imported which will be done by next update since the interior for the S15 still needs to be textured. The parts tiers are mostly the same as in the prologue but the differences between the parts have gotten better with more realistic upgrades.
The Hako C10 GTX will b...

Hi everyone, this update is a little late because I've gotten a fever the last few days but have been working through it.
3x Subaru GDA/B/C Wagons and poverty spec, hawkeye sti, spider-eye DC2 and Porsche 993 along with another Haruna Update.
Mount Haruna foliage is at 99% completion, I'm just waiting on receiving some new building models before finishing it.
The car in the pictures is the Prologue Sannis Livisa (with matte paint). It will not feature in the demo, it will be...

Hello!
6 New cars and a Mount Haruna update; Evo 1, Evo 2, Evo 4, Evo 5, Hakosuka Skyline 2 Door and JZX100 Cresta.
The Evo 1, 2 and 3 will all share customization parts, as well as the kouki/zenki jzx100 Cresta.
The Hakosuka Skyline will feature non-GTR models.
New real-time sky as been implemented but it still getting tweaks to the color/exposure. Includes moving clouds, sun, moon and stars.
Foliage on Mount Haruna is not finished and needs some adjustments, as...

Hi guys!
DC2 Integra, Evo 3, Bugeye Impreza and JZX100 MK2 with many bodykits.
Mount Haruna update at the end, textures/post processing are very early and still actively being tweaked as screenshots were being taken. Final look won't be locked in until foliage has been finished and lighting baked.
To recap the last update: development of the Mount Haruna map has taken much longer than expected. This led to a dilemma of how releasing a rushed Demo soon would significantly de...

Hello everyone!
Huge update; NA Miata, S30z, GC8 Wagon, '91 Diablo and a ton of bodykits.
The GC8 Wagon will share all bodykits with the coupe and sedan, the Liberty Walk S30z will be it's own car.
You can now suggest wheels, interior parts and bodykits in the #PatreonDev Discord channel! A lot of parts suggested there have already been made, some of which are in this update and the last.
As mentioned in the previous update, development on Mount Haruna has taken signif...

Hi everyone!
Lots of Subaru content, a lot of JZX90 kits, ZZ parts cars and Mount Haruna update.
Like the Zondas shown in update #23, The ZZ cars shown will be split and used as customization parts for the regular TommyKaira ZZ. For cars that don't have a lot of customization/bodykits, it's easier to re-create personal real life cars and split them into parts.
The GC8 sedan will share most, if not all, bodykits from the coupe. Although they won't be transferable between the ...

Hello!
3 new JDM cars, a lot of bodykits, SR20DET customization and RB26DETT stock engine model.
The Zonda cars shown will be split and used as customization parts for the C12 Zonda shown a few updates ago.
The RB26DETT is currently in the R32 GTR spec, but other versions will also be made.
The convertible S13 will have all the same customization as the main car.
Other Subaru GC8 variants are currently being worked on.

Hello everyone!
New Exotic car, 2 new JDM cars, a preview of the new engine models and a Mount Haruna update.
The Koeing 930, Abflug Arde and Amuse GT1 will be their own cars. Other widebody kits will be a bodykit option for the stock car available in the exterior customization. Most widebody kits will now be done this way instead of making them standalone cars. Standalone pre-tuned cars will still be present in-game but there is too many aftermarket widebody kits to make them all...

Hi!
More 350Z content, a few new cars, and a wheel list update.
The wheels shown here are only about half of the new additions. Some wheels from the prologue have been remodeled but the prologue wheels will remain, these are additions.
The Strosek 964 will be a standalone car.
Most Evo 7/8/9 body kits will be converted to fit the Evo 9 Wagon, but in-game, bodykits won’t be interchangeable between the sedan and wagon.
FD RX-7 model is being remode...

Hello!
This update brings a lot of 350z content and a first glimpse at Mount Haruna in-engine.
The Mount Haruna screenshots are still in an early stage, with a lot of texture work, prop placement, post-processing, and foliage work remaining—but it is playable!
The Chargespeed wide 350z, Amuse Superleggera 350z, Veilside Ver. 3 350z (only with flares), Veilside Fortune FD3S and Greddy8 FD3S will be their own cars.
The AE86 coupe will share all AE86 hatch bodykits. Not...

Hey guys!
Nice variation in this update, most of these kits will not be their own cars. The ones that will be are; Border Racing FD, 930 Kremer, 930 WARM, Veilside Wide z32, esprit NSX and Sorcery 360 NSX. As always though, any parts that fit the stock chassis will be available in regular customization.
The non-GTR versions of the ER34 will have a different engine but they have their own customization parts that are separate from the R34 GTR. Same goes with other GTR/non-GTRs.

Hello!
Big FD RX-7 update! With even more bodykits for that chassis to come in future updates.
Most of the FD RX-7 bodykits shown here will be their own cars but parts from them that fit the stock FD RX-7 body will be available on their own (Same goes for any previous "full cars").
See you around the 1st of March!

Hello!
Mount Haruna details are being filled in including mid level parking area(crew PA), lower parking area(crew PA), gas station and 7/11 convenience store(only blocking it out currently). The gas station will be fully functional for fuel refills at a cheaper rate than the current pause menu system in the Prologue. The convenience store will have parking spaces outside for pictures.
The map is very accurate to real life but the gas station and 7/11 are not present in real life....

Progress on the Mount Haruna map has been really nice, still applying modifiers and working on parking areas.

Progress has been good on the Mount Haruna map, it should be ready for foliage by the end of the November. Currently working on details and applying modifiers on all generic assets.
Next update will be a bit sooner than usual (1st December) so that the schedule of posting them can return to the 1st, the 15th and the 30th.

Hello! 4 new cars in this update and more bodykits than ever before.
The Evo 7 and 9 currently share interiors but they will be different in their final versions.
The B-Wave S13 with the 'extended' fixed headlights will be it's own car, but the bodykit customization options will exist for normal S13s.
Map progress is steady but slower than expected due to the car/bodykit commissions taking more time. But, main mesh will be finished this week so it will start to...
