I am subscribed, I activated mod from the settings menu but I can't find this gear in the craft menu.

Could you make more landing gear I really like this mod!

The wheel is not 3x3, it's 3x2.

+Infinite Fences "Wheel Displacement" It cranks up higher than usual, or should atleast, I haven't touched it for a year but it should in theroy work
Kiro 2 May, 2017 @ 1:33am 
how do you retract the wheels? cause i can't seem to find that option
TeddyChynski 28 Mar, 2017 @ 5:29pm 
Did they remove the displacment or what, can't seem to find the option.
Kam Solastor 13 Jan, 2017 @ 12:47pm 
Once you decide to come back, would you be willing to make a smaller version? Say, a 1x1x2, or even 1x1x1?
mjc4wilton  [author] 27 Nov, 2016 @ 10:21am 
+KateVemor Well, It might still explode, Haven't tried the mod in a long time and from what I remember it was a little clang-summoning. They may have fixed them by now though
res 27 Nov, 2016 @ 8:38am 
Finnaly I can make a plane and NOT explode when trying to land on a lake

+Rothank Everything :P. They change stuff for modding left and right. It's a pain to do anything with the game. They also have some issues inside the company, for example that contest that was mentioned on Marek's blog. They dug a deep hole that they need to climb out of is all.
TAW | Rothank 25 Sep, 2016 @ 2:16pm 
What is it that needs to be fixed so badly? Haven't noticed any gamebraking issues, other that ambient light bug that we all love to hate.
mjc4wilton  [author] 25 Aug, 2016 @ 4:27pm 
+ThatRandomWatermellon No, Ever since today's update I've quit modding. I've actually quit SE. I want to play and mod the game, its the game I love to death. But, Until keen fixes their you-know-what. I'm retiring
FancyMelon 25 Aug, 2016 @ 1:01pm 
It's been bugging me, can you please make a smaller version? They look a little large.
Lydon Rayleonard 10 Aug, 2016 @ 2:50pm 
Now literally thrusters just stop working! WHAT THE FUCK! So the world is moving under everything, so the starter ships on the easy start station (cause I just randomly made this world to go make stuff on a planet with) is 2km above the ground while I woke, and everything keeps bouncing, and the thrusters on the plane I am trying to work on just don't work. New or old, stock or not, they just aren't working at all. Turned them on and off 50 times, nothing. Fuck it, I am just god damn done with this game. It isn't fucking worth it. Everything I build just don't work. From miningdrones falling out of the sky with still 75% battery life, to maintence trucks with a welder on a arm that magically implodes, I just can't take this anymore.

+Lydon Rayleonard Welcome to the world of KeenSWH my friend! Here's your gun with one bullet in it and a box of cashews, dont ask.
Lydon Rayleonard 10 Aug, 2016 @ 2:18pm 
Just switched to dev branch. That didn't fix it. That sucks, cause I can't stand the normal wheels, and the aviation wheels I was planning on using seems to have been taken off the workshop.

And its annoying cause even having the ship sitting there just fine, and logging into the world, and the wheels shit themselves, so I literally can't use them, cause each time I would load up the world in survival, I would have to do major reconstruction on the plane. God damn it. I want to rant now, cause EVERYTHING I try to build always run into some shit like this. Makes me just want to fucking uninstall the game when I can't have simple fucking landing gears on my fucking aircraft.
mjc4wilton  [author] 10 Aug, 2016 @ 1:09pm 
+Lydon Rayleonard Yeah.... I've heard a lot about them exploding and being clangy... the issue is that they are just vanilla wheels with some value changes and a new model. I've checked the colision meshes multiple times and everything seems fine. That is a problem with Keen. Sorry, but if I could fix them I would. (Also it seems to be a problem with Havoc) Try dev branch and see if that helps, as far as I can tell dev branch is stabler when it comes to Clang (I can stack 11 pistons ontop of eachother and have them all extend at full speed without issues)
Lydon Rayleonard 10 Aug, 2016 @ 12:00pm 
Great looking part man, but I got a problem. I am in creative trying to design planes and stuff, and I like to make copies of my work side-by-side as I progress, so if something doesn't work, I can just go back to where I was.

The problem is your wheel keep erupting each time I copy them into the world. I can place them fine, but actually copying it is, its like the wheel slides out of its housing, and just starts destroying everything.

I am on the stable branch BTW.
mjc4wilton  [author] 9 Aug, 2016 @ 7:53am 
+ThatRandomWatermelon Thanks dude! I wouldn't say that it looks awesome as there are quite a few imperfections with the texturing (I hate texturing....) Also good to see that Keen has fixed the wheels so they don't explode anymore like people were complaining about
FancyMelon 8 Aug, 2016 @ 4:37pm 
I use this without even a plane. I use it for the classic VTOLs! It just looks amazing!
mjc4wilton  [author] 31 Jul, 2016 @ 1:30pm 
HD Goldie, it is for small and large ship.... press "R" to change modes, this applies to all blocks
Kiro 31 Jul, 2016 @ 12:54pm 
+mjc4wilton could you pls, pls, pls, pls, add this for small ships too? that would be apriechiating (sorry for me grammer)
mjc4wilton  [author] 6 Jun, 2016 @ 3:10am 
+TBBunnyWoar Its because they are technically wheels... I can't fix Keen's problems sadly. Expect much clang in multiplayer.
Ferret Girl 6 Jun, 2016 @ 2:22am 
The aircraft landing gears interfere with the gyroscopes so it gets almost impissible to turn
Mallchad 2 May, 2016 @ 1:33pm 
omg yes
The Deathdrop 24 Apr, 2016 @ 10:52am 
Thank you for your fast reaction :steamhappy:
mjc4wilton  [author] 24 Apr, 2016 @ 10:46am 
+TheDeath that was my origional plan, sadly I cant do that because of the limitations with SE. Will have to investigate more. Currently I have finals comming up so in a month or two when I can focus on SE and YT 24/7 then I will

+MagnusEffect Will re-run my numbers, perhaps somethings changed with it. Perhaps something with the colision mesh...
The Deathdrop 24 Apr, 2016 @ 10:22am 
can you create a Main landing gear leg with six-wheel
MagnusEffect 23 Apr, 2016 @ 10:00am 
I've noticed a lot of instability with these wheels as well... even when playing offline. They seem to break when even minor stain is put on them. By comparison, the vanilla wheels take much more impact without breaking.

I wish I could give you more info, but I don't know what else to say. Maybe take a look at the files for the vanilla wheels and see how they compare with yours? Hope you get this stable enough for MP. This is a nice mod for large ships.
R-TEAM 22 Apr, 2016 @ 7:55am 
i have nearly 210 mods installed - all work good together (over 40 from me ..) - and i have no mod that modify the thrust, and the aircrafts was destroyed ON ground ....... after nearly finished or half finished, the wheels act like jumping balls of death ...
mjc4wilton  [author] 21 Apr, 2016 @ 3:09pm 
+R-TEAM mind telling me if there are any other mods installed? There are a few conflicts that I know of. Mainly using it with the realistic thrust do-dad mod thing
R-TEAM 21 Apr, 2016 @ 10:22am 
It would be then nice to mark the mod as SINGLEPLAYER ONLY .... maybe other think it is an nice mod for her MP or DS world and end up with many user who complain why here aircraft is destroyed ................
mjc4wilton  [author] 20 Apr, 2016 @ 4:11pm 
+R-TEAM Yeah... its pretty derpy... works in singleplayer fine, never inteded it for MP. You can thank keen breaking things every update for that...
R-TEAM 20 Apr, 2016 @ 6:55am 
not working on DS - a mess of bugs - jumping wheels , destroying wheels, exploding landing gears - the whole range - looks the collision box is not ready for DS play .. sad - a nice idea - but if it destroys the aircraft , it is not usable ... simply ..
mjc4wilton  [author] 7 Apr, 2016 @ 3:43am 
+ghostwarrier10 if you would please refer to the my last comment then you would know...
Major_P0tat0 6 Apr, 2016 @ 10:36pm 
smaller small ship models plz
Mittens 4 Apr, 2016 @ 5:33pm 
Awesome! I had no idea you play StarCitizen as well :D
mjc4wilton  [author] 4 Apr, 2016 @ 2:58pm 
+Tessa Volkanvir Thanks! As to the 1x1 version, I am afraid to say that it'll be quite a while. Currently I am pretty burned-out with SE mainly because my GPU cant handle the game. That and I feel I've done everything I can ATM. Maybe when they add something half-way decent I'll look back into it. Until then there will be a mass-murdering streak of Vanduul
Mittens 3 Apr, 2016 @ 8:02pm 
Love the idea, this sort of thing should've been in SE from the start.

Any idea when we might be seeing the 1x1 version?
mjc4wilton  [author] 3 Apr, 2016 @ 3:46pm 
+TheAceOffRoad What I'm now doing, but if you notice they are terrable
AkogarenoHime 3 Apr, 2016 @ 2:05pm 
Why dont you use the vanilla wheel textures?
mjc4wilton  [author] 1 Apr, 2016 @ 5:04pm 
Thanks! :P the wheel is 3x3 on this version, I may or may not create other versions. Once I get time I will. Right now, I am not as interested in SE as my GPU cannot handle it even when I attack it with overclocks like I am right now. Kinda what that donate thing is for :P
kuratenshi 1 Apr, 2016 @ 10:54am 
Is it possible for us to get a 3x3x3 version of this as well as the other requested versions? It would be perfect for 'tripod' landing wheel setups on small ships. Love the mod, hope it gets on the front page!
The reward for good work is more work obviously. :steamhappy:
TortoTheConqueror 31 Mar, 2016 @ 6:35am 
cool!
d_valroth 29 Mar, 2016 @ 1:30pm 
@MagnusEffect: via displacement. It's a suspension block.
MagnusEffect 29 Mar, 2016 @ 12:15am 
how does it retract? it looks static... but great idea anyway!
SEModder4  [developer] 28 Mar, 2016 @ 8:53pm 
@mjc4wilton,

If you need help making custom collision meshes(hit boxes) i'd be glad to help. :D
Mojo 28 Mar, 2016 @ 5:34pm 
[UI] Phoenix true, I just didnt want him to think it was solely his wheels, but of course he was there too..lol. Just trying to be encouraging. :)
scott.semejo 28 Mar, 2016 @ 12:36pm 
thanks
PhoenixTheSage 28 Mar, 2016 @ 9:28am 
@The Witch The issue was happening regardless of having wheels or not...although wheels seemed to agravate the problem. We also had very high max speeds, which will probably be lowered now...
