Update tomorrow!

Fixes:

• Fixed vehicle view issues.

• Almost all cars have the player sitting correctly in the seat.

• Almost all vehicles have proper icons.

• Added more wheels, props, maps, vehicles, etc.

• Fixed issues with vehicles being uncontrollable.

• Fixed crashes and remove the vehicles (digger) that caused them.

• Uses sounds from D.I.P.R.I.P. instead of regular jeep sounds.

• Fixed GTS and CTO.

• Probably a few things I forgot, guess we'll find out tomorrow.

Coming Soon:

• D.I.P.R.I.P. Content!

That is all!

Sounds good, Can't wait! Will it be SVN by chance? (prays) :D

Updated! I'll most likely make an SVN for the next update, which isn't too far away. Now's the time to request stuff.

Edit:

By the way, would this be possible kuno?

That tumbler would be fucking awesome.

On a side note, you should really get a moderator to move this thread. Seeing as the Mods/Addons section is hidden.

Ok LSK, I have some good news and some bad news after testing. :D

The good news, this pack is a hell of a lot more stable then the last pack, with only 1 car crashing my Gmod... The Chevelle.

The bad news is that there are still some bugs I stumbled across during testing.

Smart car still has the leaning problem.

Starflight feels like it is missing the front right tire when you try to drive/move it, as the car wobbles of kilter.

Admiral, Bonneville Box Truck, Jeep Box "Grren", Jeep gocart/noroof/mixed, are all material errors.

Cargo truck has turning issues. (it stutters during turning)

Hummer turbo kills steering. (same issue as my last test wave)

Jeep 93 YJ when moving forward does wild flips and just all around goes nuts.

Hoverbike has an error icon, Supra has the Dodge Viper icon, and the wood barstool spawns a wooden chair.

Ok, now that that is over, I did find the NFS police car, hummer, and mustang fastback props in the list. Damn that would be fun to see in game. :D

Also, I don't mean these walls of text to be mean in anyway, I just like to bugtest stuff and see what makes things tick. Can't hurt to find the kinks to iron out in the future. ;)

Those are model rigging problems, so blame kuno, not LSK.

Like I said, I don't know who did what part, I just point out things that seem off to me. :)

don't delete car because they don't turn properly some of us like the smart car and the jeep 93 yj as they are. i like having one car that still does wheelies ... as long as they spawn and move i am happy will download the newest update later and see what needs doing not the silly little bugs.

The bugs are important to fix, if content is just added over time and the bugs are left alone, it will make it very unstable and not wanted over time. At this point, I didn't say anything about a good chunk of the cars and their slippery steering because I know that the HL2 EP2 engine is a bitch to work with. However when you try to inch forward and a car just starts to pull flips like it is in zero G, that is a problem.

Ok, i managed to fix the starfligt :D

Edit:
The model of the smart is 100% correct, there is only something that moves its mass-center to the right (out of the smart).
All it wheels have suspension and if you spawn another car and change its model to "smart.mdl" (model manipulator tool) everything is perfectly fine.

The way to fix it is to move its mass-center back into the center of the car :D

You should really add the content of "Empires" a mod for HL2.
It has very good military vehicles.

I have already made an request of the command vehicle:
http://forums.facepunchstudios.com/s...d.php?t=608827

Well I have finally got around to merging the new vehicles with the 2.5 pack. I will merge them, fix the chevelle if I can, and possibly add empires mod content since I was in the middle of that already and maybe some worthless tractors too.

Whoop worthless tractors.

Well a bit of an update. I can't get the Empires mod vehicles to work. They are set up in the mod to be able to have more than 2 axles. Garrysmod allows 2. So yeah. I delete a few of the rear axles and the script doesn't work at all. They are also in separate models, by that I mean the base, turret, and barrel. Too much of a pain in the ass to figure out.

I did however manage to add the sounds. Now the line bus sounds like a city bus. I also lowered the line bus since for some reason it was compiled like a pickup truck with a lift kit. The only thing is it makes the suspension really soft and it's like driving a boat but it looks more realistic, flips slightly easier.

Here is what it looks like now. Also I switched the skin. I like this one better. I will leave it the same as it is now in the pack though.



You may not notice the difference but it is about 3-5 inches lower than before.

I also have to fix the glass and reflections on the Diablo textures.

I did notice that it handled like it was on stilts before, however if you look at real city buses, they are lower to the ground and have that soft suspension (air ride) when they go around corners. I'm all for realism when going around a tight corner at 50+ in a bus, as most vehicles of that class would flip the same as they do in real life.

Yeah. This is a little bit more tippy than a real bus. It has the same turning tilt as an old GMC RTS city bus now. It is a lowfloor bus too so that's why I tried to lower it more... that and the wheels weren't even in the wheel wells. It was just rigged so odd that when I try to do a mass center override I can't it just tilts all stupid, so it is at 0 0 0 which makes it more tippy. To compensate a bit I made it weight 5000 kilograms it also makes it act like it has an engine retarder and it will slow fairly quickly as a result.

whats the brown car in the right of that picture ? looks like a dodge charger :O well the bit i can see of it looks like one anyway
and when or if you add that skin for the bus can you keep the old one so we can switch between the two using the skin changing tool ?

Looks like they got the Chevelle working from that small part I see sticking out. :)

No. That is the plymouth fury. There is a chevelle but it's not the same one as the one that guy converted.

Edit:

I can't. The model is only setup for 1 skin.

aww ok well when the next update going to be? with the tractors.

When I finish redoing the 25ish scripts for them. So maybe next week sometime.

awesome

Please give the tractors more hp than the last ones which were very weak :(
You can also set down the speed with the gearbox and win more power :D

Yeah they were absolutely stupid last time. I can't even get them to go up a grade. Also whoever compiled them screwed up... so I don't even know if they are worth adding. The physbox is all skewed. Also did you ever finish that pickup?

yes :D
Take a look at this:


http://rapid share.com/files/147507472/gmc-pickup.rar.html

It has a custom physics-model, all the 8 skins and a new glass-material (you couldn't look through the old glass :D)

Edit:
There is a little path-error in the RAR, just put the folder "gmc_truck" from "materials" to "materials/models" ;)

:excited: Yay. I didn't know if you were mad at me or something because you quit responding to my pm's. I have a few more vehicles for you. I have the hemitt 8x8 in 3ds format now. I also have a Murcielago some Ferrari's and stuff. I am still working on attachments for the peterbilt chasis and maybe a better skin. I did not realize the firetrucks texture wasn't really done. Let me know if you want to rig some more. I have still been trying to learn how to do it myself to make some of my own but I have only gotten as far as making a vehicle with messed up animations that drives sideways. The tutorial failed to mention which direction to point the vehicle in the viewports.

Scripting that baby now. Thanks for finishing it! :D

Edit:

Here is a preview of what is in the update so far. All these were rigged by kuno86.

xD just a few colours for the lambo then :D can't wait for the next update it looks great

Is there anyone who can show me, how to use the vehicle-tacho ???

Working on another car for the pack. Thanks to kuno I pretty much have it working just a few issues with some animations.

11 hours of work since I got it into milkshape. Learning this is proving a bit difficult. I got it to compile but it looks like the steering animation is fucked in the asshole and the physmodel rotated itself 90 degrees. What a douche... Oh the car also has 6 colors.

These updates look fucking awesome.

Can't wait to see a release.

Edit:

Kuno, I have a model I would like for a vehicle, what format would you want the model in?

Also the model is already rigged, just needs animations.

The best formats for Models is:
1. *.smd
2. *.3ds
3. *.obj
4. *.lwo


And remember that the polygon-limit for source-models is at ~12500 ;)

@Sgt.Sgt:

When will the patch 2.5 go public ?

I personally would prefer to use a SVN because people don't need to download lots of Patches :D

Hopefully soon. But the problem is the amount of new stuff is strewn everywhere and it is hard to figure out which files are needed and what aren't. I would love to do an svn but I can't find one that will let me upload 600MB of shit let alone have extra space for updates. I may just upload the ENTIRE new version to both garrysmod.org and filefront as some twat uploaded the crashtastic version of gmow+- to garrysmod.org and was like OH haer is mai steam EYE DEE! 010101010:0001 add me cuz i upload diz stuff i don't maek.

Is there any way to not have my charater floating in nowhere in some of the vehicles?

Hi there, first of all thanks for all the efforts on this pack. But I seem to be having a problem where this pack screws up the Prop Hunt gamemode by AMT, as in you can no longer turn into a prop and therefore the gamemode is useless. I am pretty sure its only this addon as when I delete the Vehicle Pack folder the gamemode works again. Is there anything you can do about this or will I just have to choose either the gamemode or vehicle pack.

Also I am not the only person who has experienced this as WutanG has the same problem at the Prop Hunt thread - http://forums.facepunchstudios.com/s...=418968&page=4.

Edit: I have also posted to AMT about the problem as well.

The person that made the gamemode has to fix it. Or you have to choose between the pack or the gamemode.

Can we get a working download link please?

How's that update coming along guys? Haven't heard from you in a while.

Been busy. Trying to clean up the clusterfuck that it is a bit. Adding new sounds but having issues that I am trying to fix. I have to rename some of them and redo that part of the sounds manifest. My map and other things are delaying it constantly not to mention that it is like 610MB now.

the green car called the Wartburg is actually a Zaporozhet

someone should make a better texture for the school bus.

I wish I knew how to model, I don't know how to make shapes with the application.
