    i am very new to 3ds max or any modeling program out.
    here is a work in progress. finished cover.jpg
    this is my first build so help and advice would be nice.

    inb4: oh lawd that backwards ass mesh
    inb4: hurr durr 4wd 2wd

    my plan is to make a 2wd and 4wd variant with multiple fiberglass shells and parts like lights, wheels, and possibly a more powerful engine.

    Looks good to me! I'm not a modeler, but you might want to use a smoothing tool. IDK

    Looks a bit weird that the "hood" is completely flat but other than that it's pretty neat.

    Also when you're doing the 4wd version, please make actual drive shafts go to the front wheels. People never did that for trucks like this in RoR and it always annoyed me.

    It annoyed you that they were done correctly? Trophy trucks in real life are rear wheel drive, there would not be any drive shafts going to the front tires.

    No, he's saying 4wd trucks had no driveshaft in the front.

    I know very well that trophy trucks are rwd...

    The people who made them for ror made the models well and realistic, but still made them 4wd in the .truck file. What I mean is, if this is gonna be 4wd at least make some actual drive shafts going to the front wheels.

    i already have that done.
    there are driveshafts in the front and rear.


    something i should oint out is that this truck is going to have a fully independent suspension. front and rear.
    another thing is that the shell you see here is just a concept i wipped up in a day. the actual body shells are going to be a lot different.

    c'mon devs, get these people a truck file, we need to have these ready for the beta.

    OOH, OOH, OOH, IDEA! The people that build cars get an early alpha so A. they can test the cars and B. as a reward!

    I think he was talking about the early Beta thing for people who make a car for the game.

    America = continent, United states = country. Although I was meaning USA, I didn't know Canadians say trucks too

    Admin, can you delete this thread please? There is another one completely the same thread for this vehicle on this board, so in my opinion this one should be deleted, to keep this board clean from "dead threads". Thx.
