Well, seen as i have not yet figured out how loads or trucks are made ive had a go as re skinning them

And heres my first skin volume_trailer.PNG. Its a FedEx skin for questnl's volume Trailor.

how do i install the trailer???

kevinmce · « **Reply #2 on:** May 19, 2007, 06:15:36 PM »

You need to get the trailor first at Questnl's website here, then apply the new skin in the truck folder.

Well ive been working on these over the past two days (can you guess what they are?) and there working pretty good, they just need finishing touches.

Niiiice! And how do you mean rigid beams?

adamoninternet · « **Reply #9 on:** May 24, 2007, 07:05:11 PM »

what the heck are those 'trailers' ... they look intresting but i cant seem to undersatand what they are for?

ramps .. 'trailers' ..etc ? ohhh .. they 'portable bridges?'

kevinmce · « **Reply #10 on:** May 24, 2007, 07:24:09 PM »

There mobile bridges,

Been playing around with them, theres not really much use for them other than to play with but, they are wobbly, and i need whateva cheat you guys got to stiffen it up. any ideas?

adamoninternet · « **Reply #11 on:** May 24, 2007, 07:28:07 PM »

add more weight and change the globbeams setings (or whatever there called)

.. another way is to add more cross beams to pull it all together. If there already are plenty then you may add me nodes adding the ',c' attributie to them so that they dont react with ANYTHING, then using invisible beams to add more strenght!!

"they look ace anyway, so who cares if there not soo pratical"

Well ive just stopped work on the atm.

i have another cool project that may be a really cool addition.

I just need help... What all sections are required for a truck?

just to be able to spawn?

then attach these test bridges, so another one can continue

ehm, i think nodes, wheels, engine, beams, 1 submesh ?

adamoninternet · « **Reply #14 on:** May 24, 2007, 08:00:36 PM »

thomas -> submesh is NOT required to be able to spawn .. and yes post the bridges

kevinmce · « **Reply #15 on:** May 24, 2007, 08:01:38 PM »

was just thinking about attaching them anyway.

so here they are!

and if you can strengthen them let me know what you've done, as a final aim is that the bridges are mountable to a truck and carried on its back, just like the army bridge tanks!

Heres what i wanna make

adamoninternet · « **Reply #16 on:** May 24, 2007, 09:02:43 PM »

Hey i like it .. got some ideas, going to give it a little go (no promises)
[also, try my crash test rig]

Well here is another surprise ive been working on and this one will be very functional i think, ill be one or two more days before i release, some small bugs to work out,

I don't want to release prematurely as it is all a learning experience for me.

hope you like the teaser!
