WIP - Beta Released 1992 Ward Senator

[flip889]

howdy!


This weird looking thing is a front engine cabover school bus produced by what's now known as IC Bus Corp, to compete with Blue Bird's TC2000 & Wayne's Lifestar.
It began in 1990 to replace the "President", & inherited it's big window on the passenger's side
It was rebranded under the AmTran name in '93, before ceasing in '98, for the current IC FE which continued that weird little window at the front

recommended for use with RoR's latest stable build (december 2022) as it uses the new flares3 (incan lighting) feature
fyi the high beams are ctrl + 5, this beta ver pre-dated the addition of shift + n

full version will be released soon on the repo

feel free to wreck it & give feedback

note: don't slap this on any other n/b or vice versa

well buses aren't exactly the safest thing in the world especially old ones

i hope there will be a minivan the same quality as this

will there ever be an official old 90's minivan?

very intended;
it's body on frame so the frame comes off

en route to the repo, if you wish to keep the beta, rename the .truck file to "wardsenatorbeta.truck" to avoid confliction on MP

enjoy the final product!!

just a thing with the spring/damping of the tires on oversteer

maybe turn up the spring

 

[Fili86RaceFace]

this thing happens as soon as I move slightly

 

[flip889]
