    Hello to everyone reading this. I decided beamng needed a snowmobile. Yes I know it will be a lengthy project and won’t be finished in 2 days. I plan on making this the first snowmobile mod and trying to make it high quality. This mod may also include different years besides 2004 ( I was only able to find 2004 ), I will just need a list of snowmobiles of that time (2001- 2005) so I can include it in this mod. ( I work 8 hour days and will probably only be able to work on this after work or on the weekends)


    I will be open to any suggestions!



    List of snowmobiles planned to be in this mod:

    RMK 600

    RMK 700 144”

    RMK 700 151”

    Cool but kinda useless because as far as I know there aren't any maps this could be used on. Also that list is WAY too big, the vehicle selector would look super messy with all of these snowmobiles in it, just 1 would be enough for the beginning, then after it's fully done and working in game you would add some other ones.

    I think it would be 1 vehicle, but with a bunch of other configs. The parts selector may also have an option to choose different snowmobile bodies and customize it with the corresponding parts.

    This is something really unique, I'm pretty sure it would be loads of fun driving this on some snowy maps.

    I'm sure there are plenty of maps you can use this on. There are a ton of snowy maps plus a lot of muddy maps as well that would be a really good match for this vehicle.

    I mean, good luck with the project but from personal experience I can tell you that tracks are not feasible unless you're willing to use them strictly on solid grounds e.g. asphalt, the white ground on Grid map etc. so this snowmobile will be basically useless on any soft or loose surfaces

    This is the third time you asked this:
    YOU CANNOT DOWNLOAD THE BRUTUS B1
    also this is the wrong thread but ok

    Why would it be useless, because of the light weight? Heavy tanks (simple, mkIV, Blijo's) plow through mud and snow with ease. I think understeer with skis would be the biggest issue.
