Hello All! I thought I'd share a project I've been working on. I'm pretty new to 3D modelling, so be nice! This is inspired by DrowsySam's Moon map, which I decided I really wanted a Moon Buggy to drive around with. So far I have the basic frame, a few addons, and most of the seats. The box at the back is a rough placeholder for a more detailed part-thing. I can't JBeam, (yet) so I've used the set for the Gavril Grand Marshal for testing purposes (as used in jcrew3002's tutorial) only the wheels don't line up, so it looks like it's crawling everywhere. Anyway, Feedback/opinions/comments are welcome. Stu.
Let's do some grammatical deduction, shall we? Given the context, we can assume that the first two words of this sentence are referring to the fact that a new thread has been posted for a new vehicle that will soon be available in BeamNG- quite a nice one, if I may add. The real mystery in our subject's phrasing is the word "mode", which has no relation to any of the other words in the post. The first reasonable assumption is that he mistyped from another intended four letter word; the best fitting being "mate" ("very good mate!" or, with correct capitalization and punctuation, "Very good, mate!"). However, this possibility can be ruled out based on the fact that the letters "o" and "d" are nowhere the letters "a" and "t" on the keyboard, respectively. The next possibility is that he added a letter by mistake: instead of "mode", he meant "man"; this, however, can be ruled as well given the fact that the letters are completely separate and share no placement characteristics whatsoever. Moving on from grammatical mistakes, it is a possibility that this grammatical enigma is the work of a translator. This is further backed by the fact that he has posted on yet another thread saying something similarly baffling: Due to the similarity of these two posts, this creates another possibility: the word "mode" has something to do with the fact that the thread is about a buggy. The user in question has posted only two posts containing this puzzle of phrasing, but he has complimented other vehicular works as well; none with this mysterious word. A quick Google search containing the words "mode" and "buggy" turns up nothing, however. I am thoroughly stumped by this man's quandary of word use. Perhaps he is yet another grammatical genius- the world may never know.
