Hello everyone, I decided to make a Tray version of the Gavril H. This is NOWHERE near being finished, I still have to add a lot more. Also I have no idea how to JBEAM so I might need help with that in the future. The reason I'm posting this is for some constructive criticism to help me further model this truck. (Just added basic colours) ====================UPDATE==================== 10/4/2014 Decided to give it sorta a drop off at the end, like most trucks. View attachment 25575 View attachment 25576 View attachment 25577 View attachment 25578 Wanna see if I can get a working beta soon. ====================UPDATE==================== 10/4/2014 I was bored so I made a tow truck version now. Just put a winch looking thing on the back, tell me if its anygood! just a quick verbal update, I've realised somones is already doing a tow model, I'll scratch that design and stick to improving my previous ones.
Re: Gavril H Series Tray It looks great! The only thing I would suggest is using a lot less polygons on the tubing. A smoothed octagonal pipe would be more than adequate on something like that. I may also be able to help with the jbeam
Re: Gavril H Series Tray pretty cool and i can give you a suggestion how about one version of it with like a covet on the back what i mean is cargo but it would be cool if you could have a version with a covet/d15 on the back
Re: Gavril H Series Tray With your latest update, most of the trucks I've seen have the end raised, see in pictures, just my two cents
Re: Gavril H Series Tray Thanks for the heads up, I was never intending on making this a tow truck. But I will definitely make another version which looks similar to the pictures you have provided, I got a little confused with all the reference pics I had. I just wanna get a beta out of the design I have now, see if its practical and Ill make a more tow truck looking design.
Re: Gavril H Series Tray No problem, and sorry, I thought you were trying to make it like a tow truck as you put the covet in the back of it in the second update (My fault, assuming). But good luck jbeaming and getting it in game, this is one of my favourite mods so far.
Man you work fast! you have already modeled the tow truck version. Hope someone can help you with jbeam!
http://www.beamng.com/threads/4250-Gavril-H-series-rollback/page2 Most recent update is on page 2. But this is about the same.
If it is one whole part (the back) then try reaming it to: just an idea?? van_trunk or something! And see if you get it in game.. I don't know if it will work but possibly!!
I have one suggestion. It'd probly look a lot better if the bed/platform would be a little less wide. It looks a bit overzised right now. Sure, it's more practical especially for this game, but as I said, it's just a suggestion. Also, someone said that the back should be higher, but I think it's pretty good the way it is. A lot of carhaulers (or whatever they're called) over here are the same as the one you made and two ramps extend from the back, instead of rising the entire platform. Looking forward to this. Since the release of Drive Ive always missed the Rigs of Rods feeling. I guess this mod will Rigs of Rods it up. I hope its possible to strap loads down in the future.
Yes, I started making it and then stumbled across your one, seeing you haver touches your post in 2 months I assumed it was dead.
