[QUOTE=JoeSkylynx;34631687]Yup. Someone needs to seriously make that LoL gamemode so that truck has some serious uses. By the way, how much weight[before dragging] can be loaded on her?[/QUOTE] Before actually dragging on the ground? I've tried 12t and only had very minor sag, so I'd imagine a lot. Unsprung evener beams aren't supposed to allow vertical oscillation.

Long time without posting any of my contraptions. So here I'm fixing that.

[QUOTE=RedReaper;34629874][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQ0GcNztyIc&feature=youtu.be[/media] [I]CON-VOOOOOOOOOOOYYY!!![/I][/QUOTE] Hey what map did you use in the end of the video, when your convoy had a tank on it?

gm_mobenix_v3_final.bsp <- writen in comments. Mobenix is crap. I want to know what the first map is. It looks wonderful!

Looks like the giant desert map from empires mod. I loved that, especially combat around the dam.

it's the map i converted from empires to gmod. gm_emp_mvalley.

A new plane I started approximately 3 hours ago. The chassis is ready, but I need to figure out how to balance it and where to add the thrusters. This is also going to be thruster-only.

Anyone have good tips for parented vehicles by the way? It seems that vehicles using many props cause quite a bit of lag, yet parenting them seems to completely disable any possibility for wheels, since parented wheels bounce like mad when the hit the ground even slightly. How do you people do it?

Always works for me.

How do you people do it?[/QUOTE] What you do is, you build your contraption, put a wire gate on the MAIN BASE/CHASSIS, then parent all the stuff that is decorative, to the wire gate. Parent makes everything ghost and completely ignoring the world, so if you would parent the wheels, it would just sink, and not do shit. So when you make the body for something, parent the BODY to the CHASSIS. Sorry if my explanation was a bit unclear, If you want I could just show you ingame sometime.

Oh yeah, thanks a lot. :)

try adv ballsocketing the wheels on each axle together too. Like, so that they spin freely of each other, but if one twists one way the other will keep it in place. Also, hopping is fixed using a tool called makespherical, or very light wheels or an RPM limiter (but that kills your speed) [editline]11th February 2012[/editline] The iranian air force in 3 seconds.

Youtube memes? In my FP? Really, youtube does have some seriously retarded memes. Every third comment is "dear santa", "I'm X and I find that Y", or "X people Y". Like, the site's been up for half a decade, and that's all they came up with? Shit, even [B]I[/B] get sick of it. Between that and those "youtube poops" and the "hurr fuck america fuck israel 9/11 is an inside job evil jews vote for ron paul yay china" shit, it makes me wonder: can people really be that dumb? Also, nice cockpit up there.

[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/hyUCHl.jpg[/IMG] Anyone knows why this keeps happening? The problem can be reduced a bit by increasing the weight of the wheels, but they will still go half underground after hard bouncing against the ground. The parented props are nowhere near the wheels either.

Use makespherical, limit their rpms, or use the phx racewheels and parent a wheel over them.

[QUOTE=RedReaper;34650551]some prop wheels sink at high rpms because of the source engine being crap. Use makespherical, limit their rpms, or use the phx racewheels and parent a wheel over them.[/QUOTE] Thanks, makespherical worked but not the problem is the wheels diverting from their heading direction and making U-turns by themselves due to the spherical shape. The PHX racing wheels seem to have the same problem even without makespherical. Oh well, lets see what I can do.

The black PHX wheels that are in many sizes don't sink through the ground at high RPM's. You sure you're using those?

[QUOTE=Jackpody;34652366]The black PHX wheels that are in many sizes don't sink through the ground at high RPM's. You sure you're using those?[/QUOTE] I tested the black racing wheels and they were fine, but the width between the front tires on my plane is bigger than that of the back wheels, which makes the plane unable to drive straight on ground with even mid-range velocities. This problem didn't exist with the standard wheels, but they again sunk through the ground, so I'm in a kind of a loss-loss situation here. ^^

Most of these older PHX wheels sink into ground because their physbox is so high-poly that the source engine can't keep up calculationg the collisions and ignores them.

enhghh I hate to say this, but there are kind of.. horrible.

[QUOTE=Stiveno;34659892]This is my first time posting in a wip thread but all of these are wip.[/QUOTE] Using some detail props and forming your shapes to be less blocky will make them look better. Bunch of planes. Challenging myself to build things I suck at building. They all use E2, not fin, because using E2 and making realistic flight might be harder but means they can be used on servers without fin. Bathtub cockpit cuz i'm lazy.

just as warning, sestze's on the warpath and something is conflicting with AD2 on GGG. he's going to remove it. something is causing AD2 to cause server instability. this problem is only so exacerbated on GGG, too. (he thinks AD1 is perfect and works fine)
