Terrain description:
This is a desert island, it has no roads but tracks are marked with washed-up logs. There is a few very small settlements dotted around the island.
You start on a peninsula in the midde of the bay and drive across the sunken bridges to get to the island.
You'll need a decent offroad car as there's a section where the track dips underwater, and quite a few large mounds in the roads (where I didn't quite do the heightmap right lol)

Enjoy.
V1.2
Some fixes and improvements to the island. For the full list of all the edits read the readme. The main edits I've made is to the sunken bridges on the penninsula (I've got rid of the log section since that caused some problems when you drove over it) and added a couple more tracks and buildings. Also added some crops to the farmers field so it's not just green ground any more.
Never released Versions 1.1 - 1.19 because I didn't think there was a big enough change to justify a reupload, so this is the first update. Please tell me if I've screwed anything up that was correct in V1 and I'll fix it.
This works best with 0.38.67. If you use 0.39 there may be some extra bugs (e.g. I had a lot of collision problems when I tested with anything newer than 0.38.67) and things may not look quite right. No fixes are planned for obvious reasons (0.4 is going to be the next release, not 0.39).

post here your ideas and questions for an next version
ZIL-135 BM-27 Uragan 9P140 launch vehicle and ZIL-135 bare chassis version
UPDATE 2:
- if you downloaded before 2011. december 21. 19:00 GMT (or anytime before this note appearing) please REDOWNLOAD. Otherwise you either won't have the fifth wheel version at all, or the one with bugged wheels. Sorry for the inconvenience.
UPDATE:
- fifth wheel version included. Keep in mind though, that most semi trailers might not fit it because of it's different position compared to normal semi tractors.
- the tires and rims are separate objects now, hence the rims won't flex anymore.
- custom engine sound. Sampled from actual Zil-135 sounds.
- some more skins.
i guess i can say merry x-mas now...
highlights:
- normal mapping
- detailed exterior, flexbody, damage textures
- 8x8 drive with a unique wheel and steering layout
- good off-road capability, and no irrealistic performance
known problems:
- alternate skin selection does not show up the first time you select it, only second time. Must be a RoR caching issue.
- when alternate skin is selected, material flare bindings (lights) do not work. This is confirmed to be a problem with the *.skin system.
Included in the pack are 13 versions, 3 Stock Carts, 3 Offroad Carts, 3 Racing Carts,1 Driving Range Cart, 1 Supra Cart, 1 Hummer HX Cart, and 1 Apocalyptic themed golf cart.
All carts are fully meshed, collidable, have fully functioning interiors with gauges and steering wheels, adjustable hitches, and 4 interior cameras plus some other things I may have forgotten to mention.
All components of these carts are done completely by me.
Different carts can be selected upon spawning via the selection system (drop down on bottom of spawn menu).
Compatibility:
0.35 unconfirmed
0.36 does not work(confirmed by mywolfman)
0.37 works (confirmed by me)
0.38 works (confirmed by me)
0.39 works (confirmed by PsychoDog)
0.40 does not work (confirmed by Mythbuster)
Features:
-Real weight, real power, real scale. (so don't expect to tow the ror trailers that way a kabillion lbs.)
-Lockers (press W)
-Operational dump bed, & tailgate
-Contactable bed to load vehicles or objects with ties (press O to tie down load)
-Animated winches on all except cargo version, some even have a rear winch.
-Flexbody everything pretty much
-Specular Shader
-Detailed Animated Interior with shifter.
-custom deuce sounds, with added turbo
Known issues:
-Shader shows up black sometimes, restart ROR until it appears normal, or download boring material below and drop in deuce zip.
-5th wheel version breaks when hooking to some trailers
-No flexbody tires (would be way to cpu heavy, it already is)
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.
To Modders:
If you ask permission, I'm fine with it. What I don't need is numerous, random mods made of my content without me being aware of their existence.
Important:
The steering looks like it breaks. It doesn't. That is how it was designed.
It is 10MB because of massive jpg files for textures.
