    PLEASE READ THE 4WS INFORMATION SECTION IF YOU'RE EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS

    What happens when you take a big block V8, a pair of solid axles, and attach all of that to a compact space frame?

    The Trackfab Brawler.

    4 wheel steer information:
    There are two different 4 wheel steering setups available.

    Mode 4WS
    The first one uses steering modes along with the main steering input.
    This variant is meant for those who just want to use 4 wheel steering without having to set-up a separate steering input.

    The 4 steering modes available are :
    Opposite steer, front only, rear only and parallel steer.

    Independent 4WS
    This mode uses a steering actuator with it's own separate controls.

    It comes preset with 2 keyboard keys to turn left and right.

    There is also a 3rd steering input available, which can be assigned to the analog input of your choice in the vehicle specific bindings.

    Do note that this steering mode doesn't have any filtering, so it's a lot more responsive than regular steering inputs.

    It's awesome. I think it would be cool if you could transfer the axels to the d-series

    So, this is an excellent mod that Im going to keep around for a while. I cant wait to see further development for it, I think there could be improvements in the looks department (liveries would be cool) Other then that, it does have a tendency to hang it self up someteimes and I feel like a steeper boat side along the sides of the truck, or sliders would help a bit with it. It would be cool to see diesel engines with it, but overall this mod is awesome. It plays well with other cars on the map, doesn't lag out and feels snappy and responsive. Keep up the great work!

      Thanks for the feedback :)

      I'm already working on remaking the body and fixing some of the kinks with the chassis.

      As for it's tendency to get hung-up, that's more of an issue with the way beamNG handles collisions with map objects. I've added some ground collision helper nodes to hopefully reduce those issues.

    Love the mod, but wish there was an option for independent steering on each axle. also hoping to see more engine, transmission and transfer cases added eventually

    Yet another amazing mod, great job!!
    the formula off-road models are on point but I think the crawler models especially should have the option of ballast to keep it on the ground a bit more.

      I'll try to cobble something together for wheel ballast.

      I didn't know some people ran water in their crawler tires, but considering tractors do it, it seems totally logical.
