[Released] 8x8 MAN-TGA Offroad Truck | Download Page 3

[Crystal]

Hey guys,

i started modding 3 days ago and I thought it was time to make my own truck.
This will be my first truck for RoR, so please don't expect too much

[dieselfuelonly]

Looks very nice .

[tdev]

Looks very nice .

indeed. very cool

[Sveinove]

Yes it looks very cool
We need a MAN in ror

[fendtje]

maybe someone convert it to a 4x4 semi (when it is released

[topblorone]

Cool, MAN build good offroad trucks...

[Isaac.Eiland-Hall]

The nice thing about choosing a boxy/angly truck to be your first is that you can make it look pretty close and still have nice chunky shapes... hehehhee

Very nice looking - looks like it'll be another fine addition to the trucks

What do you mean by that?

Gonna make you a skin or a cab like on questnl's trucks for it?

No sorry, this is my first truck and I am happy when I am familiar with the simple truck-building. So there won't be special 3d-meshes.
I am sure, it would look much better, but at the moment I am not able to do it. But if someone wants to build a 3d-mesh, go for it!

Amazingly, it can already climb this steep mountain on the "Island"-Map which has an angle of about 80 degrees

[Lenni]

Actually you already said what I could suggest you to do.
The only thing you did not mention was a skin, but thats obvious I think.
I like the truck.

Well, I took a closer look on the error I get.
When I load my truck on St Helens, I can drive with it and there is no visual error, but when I open the RoR.log file .. well, look at it:

Sorry for the long time between updates. It took a lot of work. Also, I did some other things in between (started a mini cooper, deleted. started a heavy transport machine (mammoet), deleted because it didn't work, had too many hydraulics and between thousands of frustrating hours and error troubleshooting I am currently translating the Truck Description File into german

[krasnorsprezevitsj]

WOAAH!! that looks.... well, i'm speechless

[tdev]

really good work!
i will try to test it soon.

[Lenni]

Looks really promising ;D
If you need some help about the truck file you can pm me in german.

[ShadowKing]

To make windows you have to have some kind of paint program that can alpha-channel. Like PAINT.net or photoshop.

[tvekoti]

Just send me the skin and i'll make transparent windows for you

[Crystal]

Thanks for the good feedback.
But actually this is exactly what I didn't want.
Things like "Send me and I make it". I know you're trying to be helpful and I really appreciate your offer but you must understand me:
It's my first truck and I want to do it on my own and what is even more important.
These offers might help once but I will make more trucks and if I always let other people make the windows .. that would be stupid.

So please just tell me how to do them. I have paint.net, photofiltre and photoshop.

No need

[tvekoti]

OK I fully understand you.

[porsche 4 me]

i have access to fire works so if you put the skin on then i will try and cut out some windows for you

Try reading what he wrote again. This time, more carefully.
