Spooky Tractor Tours

Almost definitely the silliest thing I've done for this game. So silly. The video's there. Have a gander. It's 17 seconds: if it's for you, grab it - if not, I won't be upset. It was a lot of fun either way.

This is a sightseeing tour bus, with trailers. We've got a pumpkinhead riding an old Massey Ferguson tractor, like some sort of half-arsed animatronic Ghost Rider. He's static though, doomed to drive until the last trumpet. I wanted to do something like a hay ride - but there's no good way to position CIMs in something like this. And that also influenced the fully enclosed design of the trailers.

Pumpkinhead there was actually going to be a mascot character - he's 657 tris with textures at 256/64. Unfortunately, I couldn't get the armature to export correctly from Blender. If there's anyone out there with a copy of Maya or 3ds Max, I would be extremely grateful for an export. Or anyone that's actually done it from Blender, that knowledge would be useful. I've tried it six ways to/from Sunday, or however that expression goes.

But either way, in this, he looks good where he is.

The tractor is 2,701/86 tris. Textures there are 1024 and 128. The trailer is 1,230/~70 and 1024/128. Pumpkinhead's lods are also less than 100. He's a submesh of the tractor.

So enjoy. Not sure how this one will work out - People will side-load into the tractor, as opposed to the trailers. Not a bug. That's just the way it is. If it can be modified, I'd love to hear about it.

Otherwise enjoy. Or enjoy the vid. Have a laugh. I think it's hilarious.

Source files: I'll include the tractor, if you want to make it a prop. The HQ mesh is there too, if you want that as well. Here[drive.google.com] they are.
