I think I'm going to.

Got the undercage almost done.

Completely re-modelled this beast today, nice tube frame, sheet metal, etc.
Buggy is running a 4 Cylinder Engine, with a wee turbo, nothing unrealistic like my usual mods.

Just setting up 4WD at the moment, half-shafts are all in place.

This buggy isn't based on anything like the DSC Buggy, all n/b was created from scratch by me.

Now to add more crossbeams.

EDIT: Thread worthy perhaps?



Current n/b

 

Definitely thread worthy! Hope you can make is so the front wheels dont violently shake when in AWD. Looks really cool though!

 

Here is what i´m working on since last week (Hope this thread is also for maps)

The front wheels don't shake, not even the slightest bit

 

Awesome! Did you work out what it was that was causing this with the old buggy? And if so, is it an easy fix?

 

Haven't really looked at that, my guess is the excessive power

Just finished up the bumper and headlights. (Texture is just for show at the moment)

got 3ds max student edition , first things first, how the heck do i get a more blender like main screen (instead of the 4 different box views, their to small for my screen size)

also, a little preview of something im going to start working on (once i get the only 1 3d view box full sized)

(hint: its NOT a ball you can use to crush things)

 

Never used 3ds max before but im assuming its under workspace, views or customise.

 

click the '+' in the top left off the viewport > maximize viewport. Im just learning as well

 

ah, thanks, much better


Also, can anyone guess what i'm going to be making?

 

I get the wheel shudder too, but I actually redid the engine specs on my copy of your mod because I disliked the excessive power. The power curve for the V6 engine on my install is replaced with the i4 with turbo from the covet and the V8 is the standard gavril V8 power curve. Significantly less power, still shudders.

Also noticed you typoed friction in the V8 engine Jbeam for your buggy, bgiction or something like that.

 

If this were a real car, would there be enough room to remove the engine?

 

Not really, it would fit through the bottom, after you take the sheet metal away.

 

You should design new cars for car manufacturers. they really like it when step one to replacing a belt is to drop the engine lol

 

Since I felt like making a buggy and because I wanted something to compete with DSamsP), this thing. One thing, the engine in the rear is the V3Ss engine, bored out and I'll model a 2nd turbo for it later.

 

Hopefully this thing will end up in game some day. Model is not done yet, lots more work to do, suggestions appreciated.

A spoiler would look nice.

 

Dual steer, 7.4L tatra powered, dual turbo hell buggy.. Yes pls.

 

I will probably have to put one on just so that it can have enough down force, but i quite enjoy the slick looks. If i was competent with node/beams i would ideally have one that pops up at high speeds. I will have a play in the morning i guess to find out if i find a spoiler ugly on it, the problem with spoilers is unless they are done really really well they look quite chavy in my opinion.
