Box5Diesel's Duece and a half (more like a 5 ton, but who's counting, lol)
This thing is a jack of all trades, crawling, climbing, towing, offroad, transport, u name it. I've made it to the top of the rock course with it, which took some tries, but its doable for sure. It also likes to climb walls, lol. The video attached shows that pretty well. I hope yall get addicted to it like I have, and multiplayer starts to swarm with it, lol. Anyway, if u have any comments feel free to dicuss them in the heavy trucks showroom thread for this release.
The hitch is setup for gooseneck now, but its also got a bumper pull attached, all u need to do is change node 87 and 88 from "h" to "n" or vice versa in the truck file (I made a small section for each node to help make it easier to find in the file), you can choose either one to be "h" for which hitch u want to use at a given time.
The exhaust stack is not a mesh, so it does break if u roll on it heavy, but im hoping to learn mesh soon to have a nice axle, stack, and suspension mesh mod for this.
This is my 3rd Generation Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 Diesel Pack.
Included are two trucks, one a Mega Cab Shortbed with a receiver hitch, and the second a Mega Cab Long Bed with a 5th wheel hitch. The Mega Cab Long Bed version has the textures stretch a little bit on the bed, mainly because a Mega Cab Long Bed does not exist.
The trucks are complete with full working lights, seats, dashes, help files, appropriate commands, etc.
Hey Guys, this is v1.1 not as buggy as V1.0 there is still an issue with something exploding at spawn time but it will happliy continue driving and rescueing.
controls:
F1/F2 slew platform, F3/F4 main boom, F5/F6 second boom, F7/F8 third boom, F9/F10 basket leveling, F11/F12 stabilisers.
o locks the platform to the truck when driving, this does make it top heavy though, so take care on the corners! p.s. ive added akerman rear steering to reduce the turning circle. Have Fun
Volvo Cement Truck.
The truck is build from pictures and some imagination, but I measured a real truck to get the size a bit realistic.
The drum is hanging on only 2 nodes, and it rotates by itself.
It has some custom props: mirrors, exhaust, antenna, truckhorn and those side-guard-thing between the wheels.
Original texture is included, which has sharper edges and is easier to make another color.
Feel free to modify etc., also feel free to use the props but do not forget their textures and material.
Seen it in the request forum: a container with retractable legs and a modified Ampliroll to transport it.
The truck is a bit longer, removed the hook, added ties and a trailer hitch.
The container imports-commands from the truck: F1/F2 to retract/extend the legs, F3/F4 to lower/raise the container (makes legs shorter/longer)
There is also a 2nd load in the zip-file: a tank in a frame (sort of) Same commands as the trailer, but it can also be picked up by the Ampliroll. F5/F6 to retract/extend the hook
Notes:
- The legs will collapse if you make the containers too heavy.
- Using existing textures from semi, ampliroll, acontainer and aflatbed. Thats why only the help is in the material file.
Update: download here
- Ramp opens further (so you can drive a small car up the ramp)
- Ties to hold the load in place
- in now imports commands like a trailer. Park near rear bumper and use F9-F12 to control the ramp.
