How to lift off, fly and pick up a load...READ THIS FIRST
- you can always see a help-chart by pressing and holding F4 in pilots view ( SAR and Logger only )
- you can get a better overview by pressing F3 once in pilots view, released by pressing F4 once ( SAR and Logger only )
Enter the helicopter
Press the Parking Break
ctrl (strg) Pos1: Fire up all engines simultaneously
ctrl (strg) Page up: Maximum Power to all engines
Page down once, you overpower it and please reduce it by 1 click, only use the BOOST for extrem Load lifting, it will stress the rotorheads to the absolute maximum they can withstand. If the AOA-Inidicators is permanently OVER 15 ( the red marker ), you need a parachute
..wait until engines reach green area... 96 RPM (%)
gently apply F1 until the Helicopteri lifts off
Arrowkey UP: Accelerate/forward flight: Nose down ..watch your height and apply more lift if needed (F1)
Arrowkey Down: Breaking/reverse flight: Nose up, reduce lift for some time not to gain too much height (F2)
Z/X (Y/X) :Turning, will do a pivot in hover mode that needs minor corrections not to drift / accelerate...just watch the virtual horizon Will bank and turn in forward flight faster then 30 knots, additional nose down + banking = higher turn ratio..
Arrowkeys Left/Right: Strafing while hovering, Bankingl left/right in forward flight
HOW TO:
1. Picking up a load
Land close to a load with ONE ropable, best placed in top center
Press O to shoot out the tie
Wait for the tie to move the hook sideways
Apply rope to let the tie pull the node to the ropable at the load (F5)
When tie stops working, lock the hooknode (L) and then release the tie (O)
Apply more rope to get some manouver space for the heli
-> Start, center the heli over the load, climb slowly, correct against the weight of the load and lift it off (F1)
- Pull the load close to the heli with F6 to fly and gain control
Releasing it is easy: L to drop it, F6 and then L to place it
You can lift and fly 13 tons, dont go too fast or the rotorhead will deform permanently and you need a parachute instantly
2. Rollon Loads: (SAR and Logger only)
Drive in a car with 5 (!) ropables, one on each edge and one in the center.
Park in the middle of the Helicopter, activate Parkingbrake, switch of the engine, leave the car
Enter the helicopter, Press "O" to tie the car down. It needs to be really centered in the helicopter, weight balancing is vital for flight characteristics.

I decided to release it how it is, and see how it does on peoples computors. I have a pretty basic computor, and it runs fine in both multiplayer and solo. Most people shouldnt have any problems running good FPS on this map. Please dont mod it yet, becuase im gonna keep working on it and upgrading things and release a update in the future.
New map that I made with lots of rock crawling trails. A few custom built roads for hauling. A baja race with checkpoints (timer not working), and various desert things. Make shift landing area for planes (just so they weren't left out completely).
This is just a all around useful map for anything really... Enjoy.

You need RoR version 0.38 or later version for this map to work properly. Don’t come crying because the map is slow and/or your vehicle doesn’t contact the roads. You need 0.38 or later.
it does take a minute or two for the map to load, but its worth it
New update as of 6-29-11
Redone Rockton spawn area
Load spawner at the airport
Added a bus station (its crappy says AL T )
Added a lousy oil rig
Fixed the height of the two load spawners at the port
Added American speed limit signs and parking limit signs thanks to AndrewB
Some spawn areas show the trees and some dont for better FPS, and easy too delete trees if you want.
Got laggg? read below:
The port, quarry, and rockton city / bus station spawn areas do not have trees for better FPS, delete the trees at the end of the other .terrn file if you want.
Port and airport only have the oilrig mesh enabled on the terrain. To see it on the other maps, just delete the // in front of the opocoilrig. It is contactable, but rorbot goes right through the oilrig.
A large mod of Lennis Opmap, which is now called Rockton county. It is a terrain that is about the size of the North St.Helens map. This terrain has almost everything that makes for a very fun map. A terrain with flat areas, farm land, hills, a small river/stream, a large quarry, off road trails, forest, port, neighborhoods, airport, a town called Rockton and Lakeville, industrial area, two schools, and much more that will make this terrain fun for a long time. Also it no longer conflicts with Lennis Opmap.
There are multiple places you can spawn at.:
Rockton, Lakeville, airport, port, quarry, farm, industrial area.
Credits and help:
Lenni: for this great terrain and allowing for it to be developed even further.
Box5Diesel: for letting me use various objects from his Baker Ranch map.
Credit to the creator of the trees on the F1 track.
TampaPowers: for helping to make this map now driveable at night and really shows the detail on the terrain.
Easy: for adding photo textures to my sketchup buildings, Rockton Easy bridge and helping with the terrain.
DNE: for the content upgrade package, like the signs, port pieces, industrial buildings, and row houses.
Silvermanblue: for letting me use his buildings from the Nadexmap and helping me with the map.
SkyWlf77: for using his time to contact Mirfi and him letting me use the Romania buildings
which were made by Beolex whom also gave me permission to use the buildings.
Thatsnice: for the airport jetway and helping with the map.
csxgp38-2: for making the rail station.
Adamwright: for the garage.
Busdriveruk: for the fire station which I heavily modified.
AndrewB: for the American speedlimit signs, parking, and school zone signs
Brickman: making it all work and making buildings
Since it is not officially my terrain, you can modify without my permission.
Let me know if you want to use my sketchup buildings on another map.
I made the: Optimal-Mart, airport terminal, small and large schools, police station,
fire station, rock crusher, BrickVision office, mayors house, and oil rig (please dont use the oil rig it sucks).

All vehicles have opening hood/doors, and the pickups have opening tailgates also. This helps with making them crash more realistic. Best crash is about 50mph or so IMO. The dually has a 5th wheel hitch, the Ext cab has a bumper pull hitch. The Ext Cab can also load a bobcat in the bed and tie it down.
Place the zip in your packs or vehicles folder and enjoy.
This is another mod to the BoxDodgeRam. This time, it's been modded into a 1999 Dodge Ram 1500 with the 5.9L V8 Magnum and the 46RE 4-speed automatic transmission. I fixed the gear ratios and the max speed is 171 MPH, much higher than it was designed to go to. It's also been equipped with a 97dB Ecco back-up alarm and double flashing strobes in the fog lights and brake lights. The tailgate, doors, and hood still move. I updated the file with quieter sounds. All sounds are from my 1999 Dodge Ram 1500
This is an updated version of the previous forklift truck. Now the forks can be moved to the left or right side to change the fork width or move loads sideways. Some bugs are fixed too.
It's the fixed Hyster! It can move the load sideways because it has moveable forks... Be careful when braking with a heavy load because it can do wheelies

Enjoy
So alot has been updated in this pack, the skin is totally new, the tires are new, the lights are sharper and brighter. A re-bored engine giving 3000 revs more capable of pulling very heavy loads, especially with a new 18 gear transmission. it features abs, tcs, slope brake all custom tuned to fit the trucks.
Box5diesel very kindly has had the trucks to test and they are of his liking. here is a quote. [read more]
Tilt tray wrecker truck based on Pedro's Atego chassis.
Chassis and cabin meshes by Pedro,
wrecker body by Lenni.
If you want to modify it please change the UID so there are no conflicts with the original truck.
Updated 29-06-11, fixed some small errors in the .truck file,
it now also has a GUID for using .skin files with it.
Slow computers will hate this car most likely, so don't complain. I did include a version with no shiny paint shader, for people that have problems with shiny paint.
Included is 6 Brand new Camaro's. All have flexbody, opening doors and hood. The Red one has collision so you can drive over it or crash them together. You can add collision to the others by just copying the submesh and contactor section in the truck file.
The Dragster is a bit wild, but its fun to do wheelies with. The rest are pure street. Big thanks to lifter for his work on the suspension!

Ok
Here it is from the Garage of CD Fabrications. THE JD490E EXCAVATOR V-2!
It is an excavator, it seems to work well. Has a thumb for grappling things, All mesh, The cab Bug has been fixed. You can now see the inside of the cab. A quick change Variation has been included. There are 3 different attachments. Claw,Hydro hammer, and a bucket.
The QA Variation can pick up my Jersey Barrier quite good. The machine will load on a trailer but, it doesn't like it very much. This machine is kinda fun to mess around with. It can lift a good amount of weight. Has easy to adjust counter weights ( just change the cargo mass ).
The reskins will be released later on the forum. in the thread for the excavator. Other attachments and a wheeled variation of the Quick change machine will also be in that pack.
Press "O" to use ties and hook in 4 points (needed if you want to rotate the load)
or
Presss "L" to hook in 1 point
Note: to enter the crane, you need to be placed under the cab; and if the crane is on the stabilizer, you'll need to jump to enter. the cab is a little high
