This is a fine-tuned version of ArthurHucksake's chevy p30(or mighty mite). with starling island bus skin.
i'm not the author of the meshes and skin. i just fine tuned the .truck file.
this bus comes with a left side slide door and meshwheel, and 16seats
this is a fusion of the starling island P30 midibus, and the mighty mite.
All that I've done is try to make the bus as realistic as possible.
Credit for original bus goes to ArthurHucksake and Cydvx.
FEATURES
- realistic weight(about 3.4ton)
- realistic centre of gravity
- real front anti-roll bar,and fine tuned suspension
(all above make the bus handles much better,together with a much more comfortable ride)
-torque curve
-minor engine tuning
thanks for the authors for making the bus and skin
please send me a massage if you found any flaws, bugs. or if you have any suggestions for update. Thanks
ENJOY!
update 04 27 2012
- lightened meshwheel
- idle speed and torquecurve fix
- weight distribution and suspension setting fix
- engine tuned down for more realistic performance(this does not affect the top speed)
This version could handle and perform quite differently from the previous version, so please give me your feedback if you have any suggestions. thanks!
Well here it is. The official release of my not-so-official FJ cruiser.
I worked nonstop on this car for a year and a half, and gave up about 6 months ago due to just loss of interest.
I had been talking to some friends recently on the forum who said they would really like to see it tidied up
and released. I dont exactly have some long drawn out story about how it got to where it is. It was really just
a huge learning experience. but finally decided to let it go because I lost all of the original files to the mesh.
I suck at writing. So heres a list. :|
Everything-me.
pictures to the left- taken an edited by my main man, Ferrettank!
Known problems are as follows:
Missing quite a few meshes. (Mainly suspension pieces)
Interior is incomplete.
No damage.
And there is a material bug with it on Deags Trail island map. For whatever reason, the tires are yellow. I cant figure it out...
This was my first try at animated props, flex tires, and flares, so it is what it is! Hope you enjoy it.
Also, modding, do as you wish, post pics as you wish. I dont really care. But if you'd like to release any of your mods (and credit me ;D), please ask my permission first.
Its a ~Toyota Landcruiser 60 Series~ i think (pretty definite it is)
i was going to beta test it but what the, cant be bothered.
i think its a must when 4wding, and also its got good damage phyisics ;D
EDIT: I added some spotlights to the front, and fixed the mud flaps(still working on that.
Things to put in next version:
Mabie a roof rack? Im deciding still...
Notes:
Tends to drift to the side after cornering when towing heavy loads (intending to fix in next version)
Camera is easy do disrupt (slight bump may change the angle)
At the moment its got pretty tight brakes and a good amount of tourque.
Only two pics with upload because my pc stuffed up and only let me upload two!

Aeodd at and Bartomelo PD for the HOLE THING!
and some person named i_so_live_here I found on the side of the road on small island yesterday... he did some small things but not much.
This is the 94 Dodge Lifted Crawler. Its a pretty good truck for offroading and plain crawling. Not for racing. So go to smallisland and have some fun!
Note: You MUST have the following things in your game and extracted to RoR.35/data/trucks
The sterling bullet firetruck pack
The original sterling bullet crawler
The sterling bullet crawler 2.0
Boneheads Trailmasher
THIS MUST BE EXTRACTED TO TRUCKS BECAUSE IT USES MESHES FROM THOSE VEHICLES!

For the idea

Heres a little extra.
Press G while in the truck to activate the exhaust particles.
Its pretty cool
Those last screenies are just to show how tough this truck is. Crashed into and airport hangar doing 90+
Result: A screwed up tire.
OK, the time has come. New version's features include
New front suspension
New wheel textures
New stacks Courtesy of Bonehead
New shock meshes Courtesy of Bonehead
Slightly larger tires
New mudflaps
Made some node non-contact so it doesn't get hung up so easy
Remember, it's built for crawling, not jumping or racing, so go for a spin on Smallisland and have some fun!
Thanks To Box5 for helping with submeshes and testing. Thanks to Bonehead for permission to use his meshes.
**You MUST have the original firetruck sterling pack and original sterling crawler pack!**
Please ask me and Box5 for permission if you want to release a modified version.
What happens when you merge a bus, a crawler, some 8 meter tall tires, and Cookie Monster?
Well... The Monster Crawler!
It is GIGANTIC. And it will go over just about anything. So far the fastest that I have completed the Aspen rock course with it is right around 45 seconds. In the Small island map it simply rumbles over the hills like speed bumps.
It also has some very long ties that extend down from the middle of the chassis that can pick up small, light vehicles, like the Turtle. So you can take two crawlers along or a backup car to take you back to the garage. Its just a lot of fun, and a blast to drive in multiplayer with friends.
Controls: Press the "o" key to activate the ropes. Press the "n" key to turn on the "RAMPAGE ENGAGED" warning light and give the "cookie monster" bloodshot eyes.
To install, place the zip file in your packs folder. The vehicle will appear under the "Crawlers" category.
Due to the large tires, a lot of clutch overloading will occur. I have found the vehicle makes the best power at full RPM in 6-8th gear.
Credits go to Pricorde for the bus cabin structure. I resubmshed it, created the texture, and added the 3-link suspension system.
