WIP Beta released Gavril H-Series Flatbed

Hi all,

I decided to try my hand at modding, this is early WIP as i need to;
Red(not started), Orange(in progress), Green(done)

Edit dae to make it resemble a flatbed.
Learn how to remove jbeam.
Learn how to make the shapes i have made in 3ds come though on the dae.
Learn how to properly centre the dae to the jbeam.
Learn texturing
Learn how to add jbeam

Any help is much appreciated.

vvvvvv(progress so far)vvvvvvvvvv

 

While I'm glad to see more modders starting projects in this forum, I think you should have accomplished more before posting here. By the looks of it, the only thing you've done is move the model out of place.

 

So you just need to center the model (there are some threads that will show you how to do it), and then delete the jbeam of the back and that's it.

I like it, I don't know why gabester didn't include this.

 

i thought about that, but i do really need help to learn how to fix the centering of the dae/jbeam, if any mod wants to move this somewhere else, i'm fine with that.

 

I'm glad you've started this, my model was just an unpractical design. Hope you finish it!

 

update! got it centred

(I need someone to show me how to make my two newly created boxes show up in game)

 

Can you also remove the wall?

 

like this?

 

yes. Now all you need is a back thing for the cabin.

 

yes, ill work on that

(UPDATE!!!!)

jbeam nearly done

 

Looks good

And this is what you need.

 

(I need some help getting what I put in 3ds max to show up on the dae, i also need help creating jbeam and texturing, any tips would be much appreciated)




ill probably go with something like this

 

prob a stupid question but, do you know how to make it a separate vehicle? If you need help, I can do it/ explain it.

 

Looking very promising, I made one some time ago but never got round to releasing it.

Also, for those who are interested, there is a sliding door modeled in the box van model, most probably a future update for the van will include this as an option.

 

probably the update that adds slidenodes, so well get a working sliding door probably in the year 4589

 

Yeah, its a separate vehicle, but when the time comes, I need someone to tell me how to upload it.

 

I will gladly rename and upload the file for you when it gets done and released.

 

Not to be a douchebag, but zipping a folder up and then hitting manage attachments is so hard...

 

I thought you had to put it on a file manamgement site, hen link that site, otherwise it would work.

 

Nope. Place the mod in a zip, above the text field (and below) when using the full page editor for posting there is a manage attachments button. The attachment size limit is plenty large enough for vehicle mods and is used by most modders.

You can host it elsewhere if you wish though and just link it here.
