[TRUCK] (Custom) Night Rider

[jago107]

I really hope this can be done as I'd really like to use this truck to race in any upcoming racing leagues that might be happening soon. If somebody could pull it off I'd be very thankful.

 

Name: Night Rider

 

Body: Dodge Ram? (Wildstyle)

 

Chassis: The chassis from the Goblin truck.

 

Paint: Black body, dark purple chassis, quad colored rims (see below for details).

• The name of the truck, NIGHT RIDER, in all capital letters centered on the sides of the truck in the VTKS Dura 3D font, which can be found here: http://www.1001freefonts.com/vtks_dura_3d.font colored purple.
• The Dodge lettering on the tailgate in the Dodge font, centered, with "Hemi Powered" underneath it also in the Dodge font.
• The name of the driver, Xander Draxx, in purple colored Dark Crystal font, which can be found here: http://www.1001freefonts.com/dark_crystal.font located under the side windows on each door.
• On the left-hand side of the truck (driver's side), a bunch of sexy looking angels with blue and white smoke. With the phrase "Heaven Sent" in silver Abaddon font, which can be found here: http://www.1001freefonts.com/abaddon.font located above the rear wheel arch.
• On the right-hand side of the truck, a bunch of nasty looking demons and skulls. With the phrase "Hell Bound" in red Metal Macabre font, which can be found here: http://www.1001freefonts.com/metal_macabre.font located above the rear wheel arch.
• I would also like this logo http://imgur.com/499ZFwj to go on the hood, centered, with an angel on the left side of the hood and a demon on the right side.
• Also, the Monster Jam and USHRA logos on the very back of the rear quarter panels, one above the other.

Other Details: I think the easiest way to make this truck would be to take the Goblin truck, found here: http://sim-monsters.com/index.php?/files/file/1663-goblin/ and just remove the body and rims and the flags, as well as the Goblin face on the bottom of the chassis, nice touch by the way, and also remove the driver from the seat. Then replace the body and rims with the body and rims from the Wildstyle truck, found here: http://sim-monsters.com/index.php?/files/file/1622-wildstyle/ and then just repaint the body(keeping the grille, headlights and taillights) and rims. For the rims, the edge should be the metallic blue from Razin Kane, the inside should be a silverish grey like on Grave Digger, the mounting hub on the inside should be black, and the pyramid/spike things around the mounting hub should be purple, and all the bolts should be white. Also, all the lettering on the cut Ukraine tires should be painted white. The exhaust pipes should also be repainted to be the same silverish grey color as the insides of the rims. I'd also like it to use the same engine sounds as the 2014 Bigfoot 19 Blue truck, found here: http://sim-monsters.com/index.php?/files/file/1517-2014-bigfoot-19-blue/ which I believe is the Collectors V2 Bigfoot edition from Beau4x4's sound pack found here: http://sim-monsters.com/index.php?/files/file/1019-beau4x4s-soundpack/ however, I'm not sure if that is the same set. Also with the backup alarm sound, since the Bigfoot truck doesn't seem to use it. Also, make sure to keep the engine, transmission, and transfer case from the Goblin truck, whatever it is that makes the truck shift so quickly and smoothly. Lastly, I'd also like the wing from the rear of the cab with the lights from the Mr. Twister IV truck, found here: http://sim-monsters.com/index.php?/files/file/1693-mr-twister-iv/ painted purple, and the spoiler from the Hot Wheels truck in the V4 pack painted black.

 

Here's some links to pictures for the angels and demons stuff.

Also, big props to all the creators of all the content that I linked to. Fantastic work, guys.

Name: Night Rider

 

Body: Hummer HX/H2X slant-back style (See below for details.)

 

Chassis: Whichever would fit the body, possibly the Max-D chassis.

 

Paint (images of color/graphics): Metallic black body, the grille would be the stock grey/silver color.

http://www.ipad-wallpapers.us/bgs/skulls-ipad-background.jpg (This would go on the sides of the truck towards the back end. Not sure if this is the exact picture I want. Just some sick looking skulls and purple and blue smoke effects and stuff.)

http://images.marketplaceadvisor.channeladvisor.com/hi/49/49296/skull_wings_tattoo_patch.jpg (This would go on the hood, with the red parts re-colored to be purple, even the eyes. It would be positioned lower on the hood towards the grille as something else would be going higher on the hood.)

The name of the truck, NIGHT RIDER, in all capital letters along the sides of the truck in purple in the VTKS Dura 3D font, which can be found here: http://www.1001freefonts.com/vtks_dura_3d.font

I would also like this logo to go on the hood higher up than the other image. http://imgur.com/499ZFwj

 

Other details: The Hummer HX/H2X was a concept vehicle Hummer was working on at some point a few years ago but the project was scrapped, I guess when Hummer shut down in 2010. It was a 2-door off-road compact SUV. You can check the wikipedia article for more info here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hummer_HX and it also has a picture. More pictures can be found on Google image search and you can even find some videos of it on youtube. I heard that the vehicle was in the game Dirt 2, or maybe it was just added to the PC version as a mod, but that might help if you can find the file. The only problem is the 2-door design of the vehicle, as it wouldn't be long enough to fit a monster truck chassis, so the body might need to be stretched out a bit to fit. Also, I would want the hood to be smoothed as it had a scoop as well as louvers that functioned like an air vent to get air into the engine. The hood would need to be smoothed for the graphics that I want to go on it.

 

Some people referred to it as the Warthog as it bears a resemblance to the Warthog vehicle from the Halo games. The engine would be mounted in the standard location for a monster truck, below the driver, with the exhaust pipes coming under the bottom of the body and hooking back upwards. I would like the Ukraine tires (cut) for the wheels with the lettering on the tires painted white. The rim edge should be metallic blue, with the insides of the rim being metallic silver. I also just happened to find that it was added to GTA IV as a mod, which can be found here: http://www.gamemodding.net/en/gta-iv/gta-iv-cars/28355-hummer-hx.html that should help with it. I would like the spare tire on the back removed. I would also like the truck to have a 3rd gear in the transmission.

 

I really hope this can be done as I'd really like to use this truck to race in any upcoming racing leagues that might be happening soon. If somebody could pull it off I'd be very thankful.

If you want to race it, I don't think a 3rd Gear is considered legal. Very detailed description! If someone got me a body, I could try painting it

Best request i have ever seen 

[jago107]

The best bet I've found on the body is this http://www.turbosquid.com/3d-models/3d-highpoly-hummer-hx-concept/392487 but they want $155 for the full 3D model and I'm not even sure if it would work. So, that's probably a no dice. I've also come across two guys that have done something that might be workable. One guy on the official RoR forum did a golf cart version of the HX but it has no roof or doors, it's basically just the front-end and back-end. That can be found here http://www.rigsofrods.com/repository/view/4861 if you look at the top picture, it's the one on the far right. The other thing I found is a guy on deviantART that did a full 3D model of the HX which can be found here http://toxicboy-3d.deviantart.com/art/Hummer-HX-3D-car-135393180 He modeled it using a program called Vray. I don't know if that would be something that's a well known thing around here, and I don't know if it would work. But, I have contacted both of those guys about their work and if they'd be willing to share it with us. Hopefully one of them will get back to me about it and we can get something going. I do appreciate the response, steiale, thank you for being willing to help.

 

As for the transmission thing, if it's not allowed to have a 3rd gear for racing, then we can forget about it. I wouldn't want my truck to be like Bigfoot 8 in 1990. Another thing I'd like to add to the description, I'd like a Hemi Powered decal on the back-end of the truck. Just something to denote that it's running on a Hemi engine.

 

I'm gonna keep hunting for a workable body for this thing. If I can't find it, I'll have to come up with a plan-B for the body. We'll see what happens.

This might not look good, but why don't you give it a shorter wheelbase like Rockstar. Just a suggestion if you don't want to stretch it out.

Will it handle as good with a shorter wheelbase? I'm wanting to race this thing so handling is gonna be a necessity. Or would a shorter wheelbase actually make it handle better? Something tells me it won't even matter because I can't find the body for the HX. I'm thinking I might as well go with a regular truck body, at least for now.

Handling will be effected greatly, but better or worse is to be decided by you. try driving Rockstar around and see if that is something you would want to race in leagues, most people do not like it.

I still need to get my controls figured out. I'm wanting to use my Logitech G27 wheel and pedals but the gas and brake won't work right. When I'm just playing to goof around and try stuff, I use my Xbox controller but that has really touchy front steering. So it's hard for me to really get a feel for any truck. Although, I was just driving around in the Grave Digger 30th anniversary purple truck and it felt pretty good. I'll give the Rockstar truck a try and see how it feels. I've looked at it a couple times. The way it sits and the wide wheelbase, it kinda reminds me of the old Thunder Chicken truck.

[jago107]

After trying the Rockstar truck, it doesn't feel much different. And after a side by side comparison with another truck, the wheelbase isn't much shorter.

[jago107]

I don't think the Hummer HX thing is gonna pan out. So, instead let's just go with the Blue Thunder body and Metal Mulisha's chassis. I'm referring to the versions of these trucks from the V4 pack. The chassis should be purple. I'd also like the spoiler thing on the back of the cab to be purple as well. Please keep the headlight and taillights, also. Everything else would be the same as I described in my original post.

[jago107]

I hope nobody has started working on this. I'm still not very sure on all of the pieces that I want to go into the truck.

[jago107]

I finally made up my mind on all the parts and edited the original post to reflect the changes.
