lumnuon 295 Posted March 29, 2017 This is awesome, seeing that you plan to create a left hand drive version as well, contacting the BWMod team might be a good idea (only if you are interested in being worshipped by the german speaking part of the community ) . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do know the British forces use both left and right hand drive, plus its a german truck and I think it would be a little rude if I left them out 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not at the moe but adding HIAB Crane would be a challange to get working in game. but for the mean time Im going to have a look at how to mimic the loading/unloading of a vehicle from the MK10LCU that burnes15th made.

UK_Apollo 476 Posted May 31, 2017 Can you not use the Vehicle in Vehicle loading function now built into the game engine? Perhaps with the addition of a Roadway LOD, so you could drive the vehicle to be transported up onto the rear bed using an animated ramp, then 'load' it into the MAN Truck so you can drive off without things exploding in a mad PhysX way. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mansee 3 Posted May 31, 2017 Are you making an interior of the truck? In my unit we are playing in first person, so a detailed interior would be nice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
J. McMerry 112 Posted May 31, 2017 (edited) Yes the is a interior, but Im not happy on how it looks im going to make it modular to help me with the left handed drive variants. here's a pic of the old one I model made Edited June 9, 2017 by J.

sentryuk 25 Posted May 31, 2017 just a thought re the crane arm but would it not be possible to use the bohemia helicopter sling load functions to lift objects ? Wouldn't it be exactly the same ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sentryuk 25 Posted May 31, 2017 can't wait to get these in game- are you planning to do ammo / fuel versions ? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
