I think I'm going to add the option to put boxes and things in the back of the truck, using simple geometries and basic jbeam files! I like this idea and if anyone else wants to go for it, go for it!
Notice: I've had a significant loss in my family. I was very close to my grandmother when she passed from a stroke today. Progress may be very slow in the next week or so. I apologize.
I lost my grandfather 2 weeks ago, no warning at all. I'm very sorry for your loss, best wishes to you and your family.
That's fine dude don't worry about the lack of updates. You've gotten more done than most people who post "WIP" threads anyway.
Thanks to you all for your support! I'm feeling much better today after visiting my school friends and crying all of yesterday And I've made some significant progress to the truck as well... I've: Redone the colors and materials Added roof lights Added door handles Added a model for some boxes in the back (if anyone wants to make a jbeam for them, please go on ahead) ---- Fixed that one window improved handling and performance physics and edited some files and things which I can't remember Here's the new color scheme: Download
Very nice job, love driving it around and to crash it! Making a lot of progress. Also, sorry for your loss, just take your time on it.
Whoa... dang. Sorry to hear that man (Also, sorry for such a late post) And, like some others said, it's ok if progress is slower now. Speaking of progress: sorry, I didn't get to work on fixing the UV maps yet Had a few essays to write (Saturday was consumed by history, Sunday by science/math and Monday by English. And some procrastination, I have to admit ) Also, the latest update looks great! This is really getting good! I'm noticing two problems at this point, though. Just wanted to point these out: 1. Tailgate is really floppy 2. Gauge textures are missing
I usually do not post on the forums but couldnt pass it up this time. Very Nice vehicle. Have used it since it was labeled as being a Gavril. Some things i've noticed so far: Like Classic has pointed out, the tailgate is floppy. On occasion, the front suspension acts like you're constantly running over offset suspension testing bumps when it is flat ground. The right side(if I turn right) and the left side(if I turn left) set of rims tend to deform like I went curb hopping when I take sharp turns at 40 MPH+ Over-all though, Great truck. Has provided countless laughs when smashing it into stuff.
With all the work the community did after initial release, and all the ideas and improvments, heres one thing I noticed that was done really well. The damn thing doesn't fish tail. It does exactly what most cars are designed to do, and that's understeer passed the limit. Just something that impressed me. Great truck, I love watching it get F-ound O-n R-oad D-ead lol
The desruction is okay, not beautiful, but okay The front is ugly I miss a engine with alot of power sry for the loss - - - Updated - - - I found a bug. I don't know what the hell happend there At the front right fender
Terribly sorry for your loss ky13harbor9. I lost my grandmother last december, so I can empathise a bit. The truck is fantastic, and though the steering and front suspension appear a bit wonky as far as camber is concerned, it handles very nicely. The only thing I noticed is how weak the uphill/offroad performance was. I studied it for a bit, and it looked like your front differential wasn't really a differential. In the Front suspension file (pickup_suspension_F_offroad.jbeam), you missed a line defining the engine-related parameters for the differential. If you change Code: "differentials": [ ["wheelName1", "wheelName2", "type", "state", "closedTorque", "engineTorqueCoef"], ["FL","FR", "lsd", "closed", 1000, 1] ], "beams": [ ["id1:", "id2:"], {"optional":true}, ... to Code: "differentials": [ ["wheelName1", "wheelName2", "type", "state", "closedTorque", "engineTorqueCoef"], ["FL","FR", "lsd", "closed", 1000, 1] ], "engine":{ "differential":6.34 "axleFriction":14 }, "beams": [ ["id1:", "id2:"], {"optional":true},... The differential will function as it should, making offroad performance pretty fantastic. The rear wheels occasionally collapse, but that seems to be a flaw with the game. Once again, fantastic work. I can't model worth shit, so your efforts are greatly appreciated.
