I don't know Chris....he's trying to prove a point...it is the only LoneStar attempted....and even though it looks like crap.......he's right, where is anyone else's scratch made LoneStar? This isn't scratch made. It's the 9000 series cab smarty made, with matt's skyrise sleeper.... it doesn't even resemble the proper cab of sleeper. Atleast if he used the stock IH cab it might have looked just like a shitty lonestar. But it doesn't, it looks like a pile of shit! and I'm sorry, but holy fuck, a monkey can do a better job than this. Take my opinion for whatever you want, but that's just the way it is!

There's a reason that most newbies dont attempt to mod these days, and thats because you guys expect heaven an earth from them out of the gate. Frankly, chris, I bet your first models wernt that great. yours too Cody. The one exceptin to that rule is steve, because he was born with gypsie moddin skillzors. But seriously, what the fuck.
Not to pick on you chris, but you mod good, great even. You dont do things half ass, and what you do release gets around real fast. but can everybody do stuff like you? no. can everybody try to do shit like you? sure.
anyway, he did the hard part from scratch, nobody gave him credit for having the balls to try it.
Looks like it needs work, but its a good start

You know why you guys are wrong? because for some reason you keep thinking that I think he should do everything perfect. That's completely wrong to think that. Some people might, I don't. I just think it's funny how some people go way overboard trying to go all gung ho when they can't mod for shit. That's it really. I don't expect anything from him at all, I expect people to understand that making an attempt on something you know you just can't do is just stupid. It's like someone on a bicycle attempting to jump the grand canyon, and him falling to his doom in the process. Now I would laugh, naturally. I just think it's funny.

I expect people to understand that making an attempt on something you know you just can't do is just stupid. yeah, but if your a newbie and all you do is make boxes, how are you gunna work up to doing a lonestar? Admittedly this probably wasn't the best inaugural project. ill shut up now

I think I remember that cody. here's my first scratch made model, from october 07, or so the date says anyways. Of course, this is my very first legit model. I had done a few other things like added strpis of polies and added boxes here and there, plus small things I modeled out of standard zmod objects for pratice. But this one was one of the first I actually attempted to make. you know, easy stuff.

I guess i might as well throw some useless "knowledge/opinion" in here.
I see exactly where your coming from chris, why try something when its clearly a long shot but, on the other hand... how do you know your limits if you don't test them?
I can clearly see that this truck looks like something you get at mcdonalds on a busy day but, at least he gave er a try. He could have spent more time and maybe looked at a reference pic.. but its a start and i bet someone around here could turn it into something.
I don't see point in releasing it in that state but, its been done.
Plus, we all get a few chuckles out of it.

Come on, that's like the most badass thing ever to hit the Mexican community! ;D Yeah I posted a pic of that in-game in the funny shit topic a while ago... yes, okay, he's of course not the most experienced clearly, but the thing I find funny is that he, and everyone else apart from here, thinks it's the best thing that's come to the trucking community ever and is proud of it I guess most of you didn't see his first attempts either. Probably because you can't be bothered to read through Mexican... I mean Spanish

I saw it Luke... and if memory serves me right he stopped working on it because guys was saying then how it wasn't accurate at all, but so many was glad to see it getting done... they didn't care. As long as they got their Lonestar nothing mattered. To this day I have only found myself up close and person with a couple of these rigs and I still don't like the concept at all. But hey... different strokes... different folks! You guys enjoy your Lonestar
