I couldn't post a comment to the original topic (https://www.beamng.com/threads/blue-bird-yellow-school-bus.17438/) because of some stupid time lock so I'll just post what I wanted to say here since that is what the forums want people to do. Yeah the story of this mod is unique in the fact that Blue Bird Corporation actually contacted BeamNG forums AND the creator of the mod and told them to cease and desist or face a lawsuit. So I am not sure if reuploading it is a good idea. They can sniff it out. On what grounds I am not sure but likely the same grounds that makes Forza Horizon games not be so realistic with crash damage to licensed cars. I do believe someone else has fixed the bus or another mod has a school bus, but not sure how many other mods have a long nose bus. I am not sure how long they watch these IP's but safe to say that as long as they are in business they won't allow it. All that would need to be done is just genericize the bus more and maybe make a parody on the name and that's about it. Or maybe chose another bus co that isn't so litigious. lol I was fortunate enough to enjoy this mod until it broke and went spaghetti city and crashed the game, and it was a very good mod and I appreciated the interior details. I hope this mod will come to life again someday with updated damagemodel. I'm not really a fan of COE flat-nose buses TBH.
Call me an idiot if applicable, but couldn't the bus be de-badged entirely and made lore friendly to skirt around the copyright issues? I'm guessing that the design would probably have to be tweaked a lot more than that though
Dansworth mod is pretty much a replacement to that, by the same creator too https://www.beamng.com/resources/dansworth-c1500-type-c-front-engine-bus.110/
oh thanks i could have sworn that mod became abandoned but I guess not. last time i tried to install it it didnt work
If it still doesn’t work i have made a fix on the mods thread https://www.beamng.com/threads/wentward-bus-type-c-front-engine.17445/page-33#post-1454076
I probably doubt it, considering the fact it was taken down. But if it was "taken down", why can i still download it?
The Dansworth mod is "not" the Blue Bird bus mod. It is a seperate mod that is lore friendly and isn't a name brand vehicle. That's why you can still download it.
No i was talking about this one. If it was taken down, why is there still a file for the bluebird bus
Please don't bump old or dead threads, last comment was way back in November. if you see a Red Box around where you're writing your comment, that means the Thread is dead and hasn't been active in a long time.
