People currently working on the project: (excluding me) @KJP12 ON HOLD BECAUSE I AM GOING TO BE STARTING AN EASIER PROJECT UNTIL I CAN GET THIS FINISHED So... I asked for permission to take a user on 3DWarehouse to take his/her model, and he/she allowed me to take their model of an Intercity 125. I will need help with this, I cant work files, I cant JBeam, and I cant skin, there are a lot of things I cannot do yet. List of things I cannot/will have trouble doing: JBeam Skinning Nodes Beams etc. Expected release date: When its done. (In about 2 years due to my lack of knowledge of anything.) If none of the people I request to join the project accept, it will be cancelled until I can either get further help or can do it myself. Note: Feel free to take down this thread if you think there is something wrong with it. Model picture: Model should be opened in Sketchup, Feel free to port it to blender and work on it there if you are more familiar with blender.
The idea is cool, but where you gonna drive it? I only know of one map that has rails on it, but forgot the name...
Update: Doing some interior modelling, not much else. Hope to push this in extremely early alpha within the next 5 months, as it wont be driveable by that time, ill just release it in early alpha as a prop. --- Post updated --- Sketchup crashed, lost all of the interior progress.
EDIT TO MY LAST POST: I was looking at the "date joined" instead "last edited." It's only been half a year, and I feel terrible for posting things without double checking facts. --- Post updated --- OH! I forgot! Here's something that could be useful: https://wiki.beamng.com/Introduction_to_Vehicle_Creation
Wish This Could Be A Reality Because I Love Smashing Cars With Trains And I Love The Intercity 125 But I Do Get Your Problem.
I've cancelled this mod until I'm able to port this to blender and learn blender with jbeam, which will be a long time. So you'll have to wait with this unfortunately.
They're new, I'd cut them some slack for now. They probably haven't used a forum before and don't realize that they're commenting a lot. As for capitalizing every word, I'm not sure why so many people do that. I'm trying to think if it's just being young and not completely understanding how to properly type or if it's a language thing where English is their second language and whatever their primary language is capitalizes all the words for some reason. But seeing as Cheekqo has cancelled this, for now there isn't much point in continuing to bump this thread.
Quick bump, but I need to address this: Will this mod be dead forever? No, it won't, I just have to find time to learn Blender and have a go at jbeam. That will be in a few years but it's better than never. There is no more train maps aswell, the BeamNG train trend just died. Please don't continuously bump this thread.
