made for RoR 0.38
If you still have RoR 0.37, download this version or it won't work! http://www.rigsofrods.com/threads/72...l=1#post807769 (now updated, too!)

This is a project of Silvermanblue and me

The Volkswagen T3 Van.
You will get some different versions, so you can explore the racetrack as well a deep mud and high mountains.
Versions are:
2WD
Stock Volkswagen T3 van with rear wheel drive. Has a locker in the back for difficult situations like towing a trailer.

2WD Race
A tuned and lowered T3 RWD. It is more light-wight, has a stiffer suspension and a rear locker (split - locked) for a good handling and easy drifts.

4WD Syncro
Stock Volkswagen T3 Syncro with four wheel drive and two lockers (open - rear locked - both locked). It has a special gearbox with a extra low crawler gear and is optionally available with rear wheel steering.

4WD Syncro military
Lifted T3 Syncro with a bit bigger tires and modified bumpers for greater attack angles.
It comes with a camouflage skin to be nearly invisible on Belgium terrain.
Also available with rear wheel steering.

All versions except the race one have a deployable hitch for towing trailers, just attach a camping trailer and go camping
And please don't complain about its boxy look, the real car is as boxy, too.

Commands: press T to see the commands ingame
Rear wheel steering (some versions):
F3 and F4

Hitch:
Press F6 to deploy the hitch from under the car. Use the hitch only when it's deployed!
Press F5 to retract it again.

Update: The Airbrake sound is removed since it doesn't suits a car.
Update 2: - Improved handling and more realistic engine and gearbox settings, now it has realistic power and its real gear ratios.
- New mesh wheels and mesh parts for the race version (from Buttlamo's Vehicle Customization Parts thread).
- New mesh wheels for all syncro versions, big thanks to dmtactical for letting me use the wheels of his Nissan Hardbody.

NOTE:
- This is a project of Silvermanblue and me, so I haven't done all the work. If you like the car, please thank him, too!
- This project is based on a heavily modified highroof van from Trevor, he has full credits for the base chassis.

Credits:
- Mesh wheels (Race version): Cydex
- Air intake, intercooler and exhaust: Beolex
- Mesh wheels (Syncro version): dmtactical

User CommentCreak (on 11/6/11) [mod author]do you have the version for 0.37 that was released on the forum? This should work, but I can't test it out, I haven't got a mac.
User Commentgreenmonkey (on 6/6/11) Rating: 3Rating: 3Rating: 3Rating: 3Rating: 3pretty fun, but i'm running a beta version of 0.37 on mac, and , most of the time, I have to press 'i' to reinitialise the car. When i do this in the camo car (my favorite) it quits ror. Sorta annoying.
