Hello users of the rigs of rods forum, today I proudly update the FLC. Most of you know what it is, a school bus. many of you might be saying "aw crap, another CE mod." but, this is not the case. This has custom sounds, custom preformance, the ACX mirrors, newly positioned crossing gate, new flares, and new warning lights. credits for original CE go to the following:
So, I'll give you a little background knowledge on this bus.
I always wanted to drive a bus that I, and only I have dreamed of. I figured that I could find something on the site that was cool and wasn't just another CE. so I decided to read up on how to mod Rigs, it was certantly easier than other simulators I've seen in regaurds to modding it. That is how I ended up in this position with this bus. Please note that it is not fully completed so with that said, It still has no interior and only sub-mesh.
This update:
Updated sounds. Hooray! Feaetures the ASP flAilus, Enginefan vervion, and W/O engine fan sounds for the norm.
The newer authors to this bus would include:
Me (tomytom99): sounds, preformance, skins, and moving the crossing gate down.
ROR-EMS: mirrors and mirror placement
Here is the thread for the FLC: [link]http://www.rigsofrods.com/threads/91010-ASP-FLcolumbus-Once-Again-Updated-6-26-12-going-onto-repo[link]
More updates are coming, so be alert! once it is done, the will be a naedox quality video. Note: I will sometimes find a problem that you guys have. Most of the time you will need to find the problem, and I will fix it.
The bus now has about 15 skins, including dealership skins, a blank skin, and a NJDOC skin.
Bugs :O
will crash game in MP and also flatsville, in both sp and mp.

Here is the school bus pack some of you have asked me about. I've changed it up a bit for some variety. Most are Blue Bird bodies but there is a Carpenter and a Thomas as well. They drive pretty realistically.Here is the lineup:
1986 Blue Bird International S-1800 with an International Navistar 9.0L V8 Diesel and an Allison MT-643 transmission
1990 Blue Bird International 3800 with an International Navistar DT360 Turbocharged 5.9L Inline six cylinder Diesel and an Allison AT-545 transmission
1988 Blue Bird International S-1700 with an International Navistar 7.3L V8 Diesel and an Allison AT-545 transmission
1996 Blue Bird GMC CV200 with a 366ci GM gasoline V8 engine and an Allison AT-545 transmission
1985 Carpenter Chevrolet C/60 with an 8.2L Detroit Diesel Turbocharged V8 engine and an Allison AT-545 transmission
1985 Blue Bird GMC 6000 with an 8.2L Detroit Diesel V8 engine and an Allison AT-545 transmission
2007 Blue Bird International SBCV 3300 with an International Navistar DT466 7.6L Turbocharged Inline six cylinder Diesel and an Allison PTS 2500 transmission
1979 Thomas International S-1700 with an International Harvester 345ci gasoline V8 engine and an Allison AT-545 transmission
This is a pretty large file and is very sound file intensive. There have been conflicts with the other school bus files with sounds not working properly or at all. These buses are not perfect and do not use any meshes that have not been seen already.
MAN Lion's Classic
It includes fully meshed wheels and body, realistic air-ride suspension, interior, 2 skins and a dashboard.

- A church bus
- A tow bus
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!

This is a Thomas Saf-T-Liner HDX and my first vehicle I have done all of the work getting it in game.
This is (as far as I know) RoR's first flexbody school bus!
The project is ongoing, so expect issues followed by fixes that cause other issues.
(Official Release 1.0)
Changelog
~Put the roof running lights back (still haven't placed the rear ones)
~Brought back proper collision (now collision doesn't cause weird shaking)
Known Issues
~The front wheel meshes aren't balanced (noticeable at high speeds).
~The bus is larger than most buses. I should have scaled it better when I had the chance.
~Rear 3 red running lights haven't been placed yet.
~Deformation isn't very realistic.
Backstory:
Ever since I joined RoR I've loved modding buses, and am one of the few 'bus people' who is sick of seeing a *BRAND NEW* CE300 mod every week... In order to make up for it I decided to make my own bus that was different, original, and somewhat high quality for my experience level. So I decided to make an HDX, because type D's are rare in RoR and it is very easy to model.
Don't bust my chops about it, its my first vehicle I've ever made.
Special Features:
-Animated props (including openable e-door and driver window)
-Flexbody (non-FPS versions)
-Working mirrors
-Changeable textures all over the bus (main body color, roof color, rim color, seat color [comes with pre-packaged seat textures], window color/tint, crossing guard front color, and bus #.
-TC, ABS [off by default], Slopebrake
Planned features:
-Working fans and other random animated props (after 39.7 is released)
-Under-body (currently there are no axles or anything)
-Fix the spikes on the bottom of the mirror
-Other small adjustments
-Convert all textures to DDS (my DDS plugin for photoshop doesn't work so it is easier to save as png for quicker editing)

Finally, after about three and a half weeks! This model is based on the 30ft Flxible Metros that were produced in the 1980's. The model currently features;
Working doors
Seats
Meshwheels
Flares (for some reason, though, could not get the headlights to work again)
Custom Detroit Diesel 6v92 Engine sound (I also made another model that is included in this pack that has a sound from a Leopard 2a6 10 Cylinder Tank Engine)
Custom drivetrain
Exhaust
... and some other things!
Enjoy!
NOTE: There may be some flaws, including backfaces as this is a beta version. I'll try to make any necessary improvements as needed.
This is the two axle verion of the NEOPLAN tourliner.
It has working dashboardindicators, collision and much more.
