Title: Bus simulator
Post by: zgredek on October 05, 2010, 04:04:37 pm

Hello. What do you think about making bus simulator based on that engine? I think so with that engine it would be a great game :) Please look at polish vBus simulator - www.virtualbus.info (http://www.virtualbus.info). It's old project, but with a lot of addons created by users.

Well, it may be surprising to some but I'm actually bus simulator fan :)
Though I didn't expect an interest from this direction until there are cities and streets, I can imagine driving around the country in one of these (http://www.fallingpixel.com/karosa-sd11-1965-3d-model/13783) even now.

I think this kind of simulator and community could flourish on the universal simulation platform built around the engine.

Fascinating such a product exists.

I would hope that the direction for the engine pretty much enables such a thing by default, and by default I mean just import a model, maybe detail the cities a bit more from the already imported accurate streetlayout and city generated from openmaps data (right?....riiiiiiiiiight????), and if you want through a bit of scripting set some goals/missions etc.

At least that's my hope.
