Ok. Guys, look. This was not a V5 truck that was hacked. There were multiple parts for it. It was not any hacked or stolen material. Outlawed, I have my reason.

I honestly do not even know what to say to this. I mean if you are a friend of Corey Morrison (Hellfighter), I assume you know he has been removed from this site numerous times. Ontop of that you openly admit to having something that was leaked? Disappointment does not even begin to describe this thread.

If you are going to be open to honesty, what exactly was it that you were given? Was the almost certain chance of being removed from the site really worth getting an unfinished, poorly put together truck?

I will give you a chance to respond before I decide what exactly is going to be my course of action.

This was not any leaked things. If I were to be sent these and told these were hacked. I wouldn't download them. They were parts. None or your material.

I do not know that Corey has been removed here.

And no, it's not a V5 pack truck or parts. It's V4 stuff to make a somewhat V5 truck.

So, I have a friend (Corey Morrison) who sent me a V5 test truck. When I load it, I get error 5 saying things about Gravediggerredflare. So, I got the Gravediggerredflare.dds and put it where it's supposed to go and I still get error 5 saying things about the red flare. Any help?

You know, the world needs more of you man. There has been more than enough incidents where someone has disrespected, not only the content creators, but the whole SM community. To come on Sim-Monsters and see your post is truly amazing! Even though I'm not a content creator yet, Thanks man.

Thank you.

I did it for the goldberg

XD

Over the last few months, I was thinking about the new pack and how one individual decided to ruin it for everyone and effectively cancel the whole process. To those who made all of the packs and the currently cancelled V4.5/V5 pack, I just want to thank you for making these trucks. I enjoyed every pack you guys made and all the work you put in just to make us play rigs of rods more and enjoy it. It's been awesome to drive the trucks and even better to see newer ones. So, to those who made these packs, Thank you.

Ya need to be careful who you talk to.

Agreed

Honestly, I'm not a game performance helper. But, if you are using a computer like that, I suggest to turn the game settings down.

Truck: Bob and Tom, High Roller, and Suzuki

Driver: Tony Farrell, Chris Bergeron (yes, I know he retired), and Rick Raab (lives in the same town as me, wow.)

yeah you can download it, but its a google docs file. it doesnt show up ingame

Heck, why not just put it up as a file? Not put it on google drive.

Just drop the Grave Digger Breakable zip into your Rigs Of Rods Folder. PLEASE don't extract it, I wasn't sure if it would break or not, but I guess it did. If that doesn't work, then I'll just take the link down. 

its fine, it just cant download.

Breakable Grave digger doesnt work.

Dear god, finally. We can relive the good ol times

And yes, my Goldberg lost a wheel, ironicly enough.

i have a English bulldog that chewed on most of my collection. So I have a torn up 2009 Scarlet Bandit and Sudden Impact.

I have a 1999 Nitro Machine monster truck and a Hotwheels VW Drag Bus and Drag Truck. I have more but I don't feel like posting because I dont know what most of the trucks are.

Mountain Dew (any flavor)

Mello Yello (any flavor)

Carmel Cappuccino

Vanilla Monster Energy (Best. Stuff. On. Earth.)

All its ok, double checked everything, and well still not working    Still having the same problem.....  i think it may be a mesh problem....

Yes it is a mesh problem. I've encountered this many times. It's usually when a .mesh (via .truck file) doesn't have the same name as the other .mesh the program is trying to find. Example: If I wanted to spawn American Guardian and I get error 6 saying: "Error loading mesh Raabdriveshaft.mesh", I would go inside the Americanguardian.truck (via notepad) and rind the meshes for the truck. When I find the driveshaft part, instead of it saying Raabdiveshaft.mesh, it says Americanguardiandriveshaft.mesh. I would change it from Americanguardiandriveshaft.mesh to Raabdriveshaft.mesh so the program reads it correctly.

I have V3 along with those 'rare' breakable by Ash and such. I can send it to you through Skype. Just hit me up on message and I'll send them. I might not be able to instantly send them to because I usually post when I'm on my iPad.

If that is a reference to the profile edit problem that is 100% on IP Board, nothing anyone here can do about it, been a problem for awhile there was a time when Brian got a way around it working that I helped test then the forum got updated and the problem came back. However I'm not sure if the same work around can be implemented again or not.

 

 

Also in a somewhat unrelated and related manner, most of us know the RoR developers have moved on to BeamNG and I do not know if any of them still have any involvement with RoR other then the main RoR forums and making their own mods so with that we are pretty much self reliant on everything now. Monster truck wise once this site started it pretty much became reliant 100% on users who choose to take their free time and make more stuff for this game for all of us to enjoy, simple solution to more content is more people learning blender and making it. I can't foresee another mega pack project happening again as everyone gets fed up with all the drama involved with it fairly quick so we're pretty much stuck with what we have for now and another thing to remember is that we aren't all going to be able to build stuff for this..or any game for ever. One person can not do it all, there are a small number of people still here with RoR that came from MTM2 that know how to run a league or make some really awesome stuff some of them just race now. We should try to help each other and the new users that show up instead of trying to troll them or run them out like they are invading our fortress...nobody seems to want to do that for some reason and if there are no new users joining then it will not make it to the 5 year mark.

 

If we want this site and game to live for 5+ years some things need to change but the main thing to me are the arguing and the whole I'm better then you crap needs to stop...which it seems to be slightly changing for the better but only time will tell on that. I also think the mega packs need to stop, the current V4 pack I have is almost 1GB...and that is the compressed .zip version as it is well over 1GB if I were to unpack it. Stand alone trucks or smaller packs I think are the way to go, sure there will be more .zip files but it won't take some users 5 or more hours to download that. There are a few other things I would like to see change but those are by far the 2 major ones that I've seen around here a lot more then I would like to. Sim-Monsters opened in September of 2010 so that marks this year come September as the 4th anniversary of the site, and I'm quite pleased to say that I've been around for most of those years and sure I've done some things others disagree with and some I myself disagree with but I think everyone goes through a period in their life like that. With that said let's keep this place alive...not for ourselves but for those that wanted the most realistic monster truck game they could have dreamed of...we pretty much have that and it is rather obvious that without it we would probably be waiting our entire lifespan for it.

 

 

 

Sorry for kind of going way off topic.

Can't say it any better. Honestly, this site has come a long way. With all the drama and the 'Incident' involving someone hacking/finding something (Dear lord, new topic will come up now), Rhis site will somehow turn out fine. As long as us members help this site.

Monster Jam.

Pros:

-Backflips are an obstacle. Not a side show.

-Good drivers=Awesome show.

-Cool trucks.

Cons:

-Same track paint every year

-Same obstacles/needs new obstacles

-Some judges are horrible. (Example: Tampa 2014:Tom Meents pulls off a corkscrew and 3 saves and somehow Adam Anderson wins.)

Monster X Tour:

Pros:

-Shows are everywhere monster jam isn't at

-different track layouts and paints

-There's some old Monster Jam trucks like American Guardian or Time Flys

Cons:

-Almost always arena events.

-Truck variations (Rockstar's axles are close together, making it easy to do wheelies, saves, etc.)

-It seems like the winner is chosen at random.

I have 3 breakable trucks that are strong in .37. The problem is, I used trucks from the download section and I used box 5's trucks. A good tip to make the trucks stronger, is to use -0.1 in the set_beam_defaults. That how I strengthen my breakables

Yay I fixed the ads problem. Now, I have another annoying problem. Not all of the trucks appear ingame such as escalade and detour. If you could fix that that would be awesome. Some trucks are laggy too. Just sayin

Junk junk junk and more junk!   

Anyways, if someone knows how to make flex bodies or can make a tutorial for it i would be very thankful...i want to make some experiments....   Also tell me ya opinionz

Axle is from Klayton, taken from Mopar Magic 2.0, body modeled by Andrew Sheets

 

I know how to make flexbodies. Just give me a heads up and I'll tell you.

You would have to copy the entire beam section from a Box5 truck over the V4 beam section then use the flexbody line from Box5 trucks and change the mesh name to the Captains Curse body.

will this change the captains curse body?

So I've heard of people being able to use box5's flexbody settings on V4 trucks and download trucks. Can someone help me out on how to add that feature to captains curse or any truck for that matter?
