    This looks great, however would the odometer script for the bus be possible for you to have / make as an UI app, for each of any vehicle installed, and saving between sessions?

    Very cool :) By the way, I just had my first half hour test driving it, didn't make a scratch on it :D
    But wanted to say that the drift steering ( or close ratio ) seems to work quite fine. I floored it in East Coast doing + 125km/u.
    The steering responds fine.

    This is looking very good! Glad someone else is working on buses! :cool: Do you plan on making a generic brand for it to post on the resource page?

    After deleting the old version of the bus and installing the new one, I have this problem when spawning up the short bus. I removed all of my custom configs, and still have the problem.

    I don't know still. I've always felt that it takes away a lot of value from it. Spend a year and a half making a vehicle, then debadging it, just doesn't really sit well with me still. I'd rather make a fictional design for things like that.

    You could keep both, this one on the forum page and a debadged one on the resource page, although it does take alot of time to debadge it to that degree, some of the actual design would have to change.

    This is a really detailed mod. This brings memories of me riding it in elementary school. Awesome work! I even made a route video on it

    I noticed your camera is really close. You can zoom it out with the standard zoom keys (numpad 9 and 3). I wish I could override the default FOV but that doesn't seem to work anymore :(
