Re: WIP - Locomobile
Neat-Os!
Is it suppose to be based on a steam car or steam train? It looks like a train, but I know some early motor vehicles didn't look like typical automobiles.

Re: WIP - Locomobile
It looks quite pleasant!
Re: WIP - Locomobile
I'm just making it up as I go along, but I'm looking at pictures of old trains , steam tractors, steam boats.
It's supposed to be what an 1880's inventor would come up with as a land vehicle, having not heard of an automobile before.
I've been on sorta steampunk kick lately.

Re: WIP - Locomobile
Nice concept idea thingy cool, orignal.. i mean people made traisn before but thats cool ^^
Re: WIP - Locomobile
I don't think that's a train - it's a steam powered automobile. But I guess the plow in the front gives off that idea.
Anyway, looking great C! You always come up with the best ideas!

First : Hi everyone, sorry not to be as present as I wish ...
Coffey, that's a great model !
And Nice textures !
I would like to have such an industrial look for my indus truck ...
Somewhere it gives me the wish to create some new car ...
If only I could have a few more time.

Re: WIP - Locomobile
The model was done with Cared, as it seems but which one did you use for texturing ?
PT 2 ?

Re: WIP - Locomobile
You could probably shave some more pollys out of the barrel. If you look at the rocket (your linked train pic) the "barrel" is actualy a brass boiler insulated with wood. the wood sections are straight not a traditional barrel shape. just a thought.
can't wait to watch those connecting rods pumping with the wheels

If it runs, drives, stops, has a title, AND is under $300, I'll take it!
Re: WIP - Locomobile
Actually, I didn't make it in CarEd. But I am breaking it up and texturing it in CarED.
You know, my usual unorthodox, often times bizarre method of doing things.

@Maxine - yep, turning gears, pumping pistons, rocking arms.
@M.A. - Thanks, it is big, still not sure how I'll handle the BBox with that tall smokestack

Re: WIP - Locomobile
Easy, just make a normal BBox around the vehicle (but not the smokestack)
Then make a seperate 8 point BBox from bottom (where it collides with the vehicle or lower if you wish) to top of the smokestack (so it's a rectangle over it~~)
BTW nice job, i dig those caps on the wheels
Also i might note the vehicle sinks through the ground..

Re: WIP - Locomobile
If I do the second BBox for the smokestack, will it be able to be broken off/detachable?
Yes, I think I need to raise the vehicle up just a little bit

No, unless you make a small part of the top break off and you play with the top 4 points height..

Re: WIP - Locomobile
That looks frickin' awesome...
Not too sure about the wheels though. I don't think the pink moss suits it :/

Re: WIP - Locomobile
Now that I am setting up the Grooves for the moving parts, I'm realizing I that had I thought it out a little better I would have realized that the big rocking arms need to be parallel with the ground, and not at 45 degrees, in order for it to look like they are pumping the brass rods up and down.
Oh well back to the drawing board.

Now that I know how to do complex grooves, I figured I'd finish this.

Re: Locomobile for download!!
the textures are gorgeous
Re: Locomobile for download!!
I will try editing the turning radius. I tried a few different numbers but it didn't seem to do anything for me????
Oh shit. you're right. I forgot the cameras!!! Dammit.
I need to make a checklist of all the things to do before releasing a car. I always manage to forget something.

Re: Locomobile for download!!
I've updated the ZIP with turning radius and camera positions rectified.
But if already downloaded the car and you just want to grab a new steampunk.TXT, see the attachment
