    The Gavril SV-Series (Step Van Series): A step van / multi-stop truck based upon the chassis of the H-Series

    (Heavily WIP interior)
    screenshot_2024-06-22_20-34-55.png

    This is my second standalone vehicle (although first that I've actually made proper progress on)
    A majority of the assets are completely made by scratch, although some are shared from the H-Series and T-Series
    I am surprised that no one has yet created a proper step van for this game (I've only ever seen Automation mods for them) and so I decided I would be the first.

    Keep in mind that I am still quite new to modding, and so there may be issues upon release, or otherwise slow progress.
    Any help is appreciated, and suggestions for the SV-Series are highly encouraged.


    Video showcasing current state of development and features, as of October 14th 2024


    In depth information about this project down below
    This list is still incomplete, any suggestions are welcome.
    All branded names will be made lore friendly, as I plan to release this on the repo. Name suggestions are welcome.
    Delivery:
    • Amazon Prime Delivery van
    • FedEx Delivery van
    • BeamCom van
    • UPS Delivery van
    • USPS mail van
    Food Trucks:
    • Ice cream Truck
    • Taco Truck
    • Burger Truck
    • Pizza Truck
    • Generic Food Truck
    Configs:
    • Armored van (Including SWAT, and cash collection van)
    • Armored apocalypse van (Suggested by Reece Coates)
    • Fire Rescue van
    • EV configuration (Probably won't feature a unique design, but will be based upon the later 2020 models)
    List of planned models, of which is still incomplete.
    SV65
    • The SV65 is the large sized heavy duty configuration. It has a much larger body and wheelbase than the SV45.
    SV45 (Default)
    • Based on the H45, the SV45 is the default configuration, and the medium sized heavy duty configuration, featuring rear dually wheels.
    SV40
    • Based on the SV45, the SV40 is the shorter sized heavy duty configuration, featuring rear dually wheels.
    SV35 (suggested by Blue Bird Gaming)
    • Based on the H35, The SV35 is the shorter sized light duty configuration, featuring a narrower body with single rear wheels.
    As of currently, the plan is mid 2000s to 2020s. Though, I do plan eventually to move onto older models, but I am not sure if older models will be included by release.
    Early models (2000s - mid/late 2010s)
    • These models will have a standard front end design, with the basic H-Series steering wheel.
    Late models (mid/late 2010s - present)
    • These models will receive a rounder front end design, with a unique modern steering wheel.

    Hoods will have many different designs.
    Here are the current planned hoods:
    Early 2000-2010 model
    This will have different headlight designs, and different grille designs.

    Late 2010s-present model
    68ce76ca86d34440e1405ed78fe65016.png
    Early 1980s models
    These will get two different hood designs.
    Like I've previously said, the old models are planned eventually but will probably not be included upon release.

    The JBeam is still very incomplete.
    It is based on the H-Series JBeam, but heavily modified to fit the step van body.

    So glad someone else had the same idea as me. I was working in Blender and made a Stepvan Jbeam, but couldn't get the model I had in the game so I was stumped. Hopefully this gets finished since Beam does lack a proper stepvan like this one.

    Welp, you beat me to it! lol

    Looking good so far, only thing I'd say about the .Jbeam I see is it could use a little more resolution (more nodes) in certain places (pillars, fenders, etc.)

    I don't have much of any time, but any .Jbeam advice or questions, I'll try to answer them (won't be quickly though lol)



    Good luck on this, keep it up!

    Of course
    Yes, many configs such as food vans and delivery vans are planned
    My plans for delivery vans, all of which will be lore friendly:
    -FedEx
    -UPS
    -Amazon Prime
    -USPS (Mail)
    -And the BeamCom van from the H-Series

    As for food trucks:
    -Ice cream truck
    -Taco truck
    -Burger truck
    -Pizza truck
    -And a generic food truck
    And obviously I will include a UV map so that others may make their own skins
    These plans are not final, you may all make suggestions
