    What's wrong with making more school buses? Does it annoy you just because there's already a bus and it means to you nobody else can make a vehicle like that?

    a better, up-to-date school bus in comparison to the other, old, outdated ones
    besides, this looks very promising.
    and the devs of the others have probably given up/ dont want to update them now, as they are so outdated

    Um, as far as I know, the other buses made by ThreeDTech21 are not based on the FS65. So this introduces more variety.

    More the better, we just sell our relatives and neighbors to get new and faster GPUs, so more polygons is really not a problem as long as material count is kept low and UV island number low :D

    Anything below 1 million polygons if fine by me, except you probably don't want to do UV mapping for such :p

    That really looks pretty, looking forward of seeing your ideas taking shape with this one :)

    - Based on a real life model
    - Will have scratch made textures, including normal and specular maps (won't look as flat)
    - Will have a scratch jbeam, not something derived from official
    - Multiple other reasons

    So far today: Windows, more interior work, and the rear door has now been cut out

    Anyone else remembers this thing from Simpsons? From some reason it always comes to my mind when I see school bus interior, maybe it is Halloween :D

    The fact that this thread has been revived after about 5 years gives me hope that anything is possible.

    It's not a Freightliner engine either. But yeah it's a Thomas body.

    So what happened, did freightliner produce the buses and then Thomas started producing their own buses when they got big enough?
