    Okay, as previously announced, this post will cover the details and problems.

    First, I would like to say the main purpose of this mod. This was made keeping the original pigeon (models, textures, jbeams) as much as possible. Originally made for experimental use to solve wheel alignment misalignment, suspension, and jbeam problems that occur when the wheelbase is shortened. So I didnt intend to even make a model, but since it was going to look like a kei truck, I made that.
    As a further aside, what was supposed to be the prototype mod, it was a JB23 Suzuki Jimny, which was a Hopper turned into a kei car with a short wheelbase. It first started making the model and in the process started editing the jbeam, but for some reason the alignment was off and it didn't work. So Cabover Pigeon was made as an experiment to fix that. Cabover Pigeon was quite helpful in me understand the fun and mechanism of Jbeam (Nodes and Beams). Guided Bus and Monorail that I made afterwards also started with this mod.

    The changes are essentially unchanged of original pigeon for the most part. The model has shortened the front part to make wheelwells on the body and doors. The frame was also reassembled and made to fit the cabover.

    Texture is not newly UV mapped (because it's too much work) I hate fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu texturing
    For now, it can be selected from the original pigeon; maybe possible to use other mods if the unibody is different and there are parts in common.

    From here, take a look at the problem. I will use photos to explain.
    the model and textures are quite rough.

    Pedals are misaligned. (It is a remnant of semi cabover.)

    Steering arms and shafts have not been made yet. How do I design that...

    It is not UV mapped, so it is strange in places.

    jbeam is mostly fine in drivability, but not good in destructive representation(occur spikes). The front is heavy due to too many nodes in that. This, combined with the short wheelbase, can cause the rear wheels to float.

    I'll post later why the front wheels are positioned here, and the front body juts out a bit.


    bumper that makes me smile has been fixed.

    yeah if the face of it dident stick out it would be much better also a cool idea would be to have all the bed sides be openable / closeable just like how they are in real life not sure if that would work tho
