It's still an early WIP. But i'm making a rollback tow truck out of the gavril H heavy frame. It does not and probably will not have commands. I honestly do not know how to do that. But I am busy so updates may be slow. Tell me how it is, and i'm not afraid of criticism. So let it fly!
Texturing is the next step. Making rollback hard steel, and the drop down for another car that rolls on the Ground if you know what I mean. Like I said before. Texturing info could really help (gabester?) then getting in game. Maybe light bar. Like I said. A WIP. Also; the back of the cab and rollback and rollback frame are modified previous parts. Is that okay along with new meshes?
Looking good so far! Is the rollback going to be large enough to fit another car on? would be fun to spawn on car on the back and try not to have it fall off while driving around, if only there was a way to strap things down in the back..
Yes it is. I have had the Gavril grand marshal on it. It's long and kinda fat. It fit. Nicely. And I'm sure the van will too. Box truck will be a no. And you never know. Maybe someone will find a way. I could add a tire catch. For spawning on the back. It won't fall off the sides and if it had like stiff tire wedges maybe it won't fall off the back.
The tire wedges are a great idea, maybe some small divots for the wheels to fit in would help as well.
I'll try the divots. But probably wedges since it will take up too much space to put divots all over. I can easily make 2 sided wedges for longer/shorter cars. I now re-read your message and realized you were adding on to the wedge idea. Thank you. - - - Updated - - - So i got the tow lift on. and put the Grand Marshal on the back. suggestions would be nice!
No, but you can pause, and in world editer make the front tires over the tow bar. But commands are really not possible now.
Haha, that sounds like so much fun! Just had a few ideas, Any way to extend the cab a bit? Might be useful for giving the people your towing a ride back to the shop. I think some toolbox's under the bed on both sides would look nice, especially in chrome. Some tall exhaust pipes or side pipes would look good if that's possible. also some heavy duty side mirrors and lots of extra lights would be cool.
Oh man this would be pretty great haha. If the OP can do that it would be cool if the second deck was also a removable part in the editor.
This is looking awesome man I don't wanna be the one to ask but I will anyways. Have you gotten any more progress. I will definitely use this!!
something tells me that you could add another drive axle for weight distribution, and add a diesel engine
I already made a diesel engine for the van .. Its pretty nice to use in the cargo van and pull cars around.
Looking amazing! Great job! But, one little question, when the truck is finished, are you able to drive a car to the bed ingame? And would you be able to drive around with the car on the bed, or would the car just drop down from the bed?
Game limitation right now which is planned to be fixed. Cars touching cars doesnt go well, on the grid map there is a ramp which perfectly reaches the height of the floor to the cargo box on the H series, spawn an H series in, take the doors off with Control-W, park it against said ramp, stick the covet in the back (just fits). Chaos ensues as you drive around.
