this is a project i will most probably never Finnish as i started something else instead.
its the 4x4 thing and a custom made crane trailer for it,
the 4x4 thing has 4 wheel steering at low speeds, locked diffs and a steering wheel.
the crane trailer has ropes and a invisible leg, the commands for it are are:
F9-F10 lower and lift the crane boom.
F11-F12 lower lift the invisible foot.
'O' connect load
'L' lock crane trailer to vehicle.
to connect the trailer drive the 4x4thing so the trailers hitch node is above the grease mark on the 4x4 thing and it 'L'
to pick up a load back the crane trailer over it lower it so its with in 1.5m from the object and it 'O' once it connects
and the ropes shorten hit F10 to lift the load of the ground and drive away. reverse order for dropping a load.
the crane trailer is usable on other 5th wheel hitches.
Here is my latest Kenworth mod. This is a T600 "Anteater" which was first introduced in 1985 and was Kenworth's first aerodynamic truck and a very radical change from the W900 line. This specific model is powered by a C15 Caterpillar engine with a 13 speed transmission. It features a fully animated interior- guages, shifter, pedals and steering wheel. The truck also has diff locks for hauling heavy loads.
Huge thanks to Box5 for the original W900, Jerald for the sounds, Fidoj for fine tuning and everyone who provided support and motivation along the way.
In the pack is the photoshop file to create custom skins. The ambient occlusion names correspond to the truck names, i.e AO1 = T600_1, AO4 = T600_4, etc. (5 and 1 share AO1). When you save the skin as a .dds be sure you have the right AO layer selected and the others invisible, otherwise it'll be all screwed up.
This pack has four custom Kenworth T600's. They started as a joke but I got carried away. There is probably a lot of bugs and stuff I haven't found but I just wanted to get them finished.
Most of the trucks are completely impractical. The wheel base is too long to have a tight turning circle. They sit so low you'll rip your bumper off the instant you hit a gutter. The lowriders with hydraulics have the worst ride imaginable and are stiff as a rock. The only purpose they really serve is to look cool.
Controls:
'L' to lock on a trailer
'N' for lights
'Ctrl+1' for headlights
'F4/F3' to raise and lower the hood
For trucks 2 and 3:
'F5/F6' for front hydros
'F7/F8' for rear hydros
Feel free to mod these or do your own bug-fixin' however you see fit.
Into this file there are:
- Original OTTAWA with mesh wheels
- 3 Off Road OTTAWA with different front suspensions!

The off versions can't be used with trailers, because of their rear soft springs!
The 4 wheel drive version have this kind of diffs:
they start with all open;
press w and all split
press w and rear locked, front opened (obviously appear 'Open')
press w all locked!
Kenworth trial truck based around a w900. The pack contains two options- regular and FPS. Features open, split and locked diff options. Low gearings for offroading and crawling. The regular version also has flexmesh tyres.
Thanks to Box5 for the original meshes and chassis.

just uploading to make it available as single file, it is identical to the one in the content pack.

This will be replaced soon by a ne version with improved look.
Thanks to Lifter, he made the suspension.
THIS IS THE OLD VERSION DON'T DOWNLOAD IF YOU DON'T REALLY NEED IT FOR SOME REASON!!!
This is my Mack terrapro's beta. I have included both a two and four door version. I CREATED THE MESHES, I mounted them on Pricordes dafs because I liked them and I wanted to freshen them up. I hereby give full permission to use these meshes in any of your projects, all I ask is my name be mentioned. Both of them are skinable to an extent and are extremely low poly. More versions are in process and will be released some time in the future.
Scania R 420 and R 480 Topline trucks, two different skins included.
Updated, doesn't use sections anymore.
Installation as usual, put the file in mydocuments/RigsofRods/packs.
If you have the older version then please remove it (this doesn't automatically overwrite!)
Works only in 0.36 and above.
All mesh and node and beam parts of the model are made by me, credits to pedro for the steering wheel texture.
If you want to reskin it make sure it doesn't conflict with my original pack in any way and contact me on the forums before you release any derivates of that model.
Only use one version of the truck at a time, more might crash the game.
I am not responsible if you mess up your RoR by installing or using this truck in a wrong way.
A generic european style foodstuff tanker trailer.
Be careful when driving, it behaves like a partly filled trailer and tips over easiely!
It can be modified if the modified file is really independent, if you want to make a skin only you should use .skin files or release the texture file only.
If you need help with making an independent mod please contact me.
Give credits when modifying or using parts of this trailer!

Hi there, this a 1984 Kenworth SAR designed and built only in Australia. It has a big 'n' burly Cummins inline 6, backed by an Eaton Fuller transmission with 12 forward gears to get the power where it's needed.
If you have the old version make sure to delete it from your packs folder
NOTE: This is an extensively modified version of Box5diesel's W900. I give massive thanks to him for the original truck and for allowing me to modify it.
There are several different trucks in the pack, however, to save space they all share the same mesh so you can only spawn one of each type at a time, otherwise the materials will collide.
I included the photoshop file in the pack as well, so it easier to make custom skins.
If you find any problems feel free to send me a private message.
okay, this is a fix (with permission) for hemiboys kenworth SAR.. this will fix the problem with the rear axles. enjoy (first upload) these are the .truck files so all you need to do is replace them! (read me included if needed)
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.
Yea I think you could post that up, you did some good work on it. I wish all vehicles used slopebrake by default, I love parking on hills and not worrying about it rolling away slowly.
Post it in the mods&skins section of the showroom.
Thank you box5diesel for testing it and glad you like it.
was a problem with previous versions, but now is all fixed
A Dutch skin for the Mercedes Atego Metz aerial firetruck.
It's a skin based on the Mercedes Atego from the fire department of Middelburg, Zeeland in the Netherlands.
I have tried to make it as real as possible, but because this firetruck is an older Mercedes Atego version than the one in use by the firedept. I could not exactly reskin all parts correctly.
I hope you like it!!
