HOLY SHIT.    HO     LEE    SHIT.

That is one of the coolest things I have seen in a while.

I love Paris-Dakar, and seeing the DAF and the Galoiuiosusis trucks made
me pine for a truck simulated Dakar sim!

For those of you on dial up or don't want to click links, some
highlights of the video :

 - articulated bus.

 - Galuosisudusos truck end over ending down a steep hill.

 - a transport tow-truck towing a DAF Dakar style truck.

 - a 5ton style truck backing up and loading a ship container onto its
'rails' (?) using it's built in crane.

 - a flatbed truck unrolling it's segmented crane arm and then picking
up a crate and loading it onto the bed.

 - the DAF truck driving onto the bed of a flatbed, and then the flatbed
driving over a ramp. :)

That is some very impressive work.

(To the group: I haven't seen this here and I don't get to RSC much. I
am guessing this has had discussion over there?)

It is pretty good isn't it. Those trucks look satisfyingly heavy, if a
little "jiggly" in the flexibility department at times.

I'm not sure about the suspension on that lorry transporter though... I
was looking forward to watching the wheels drop off. But that's
something to look forward too perhaps. It's a superb work in progress.

Oh.. you can DL the demo. I missed that.

Obviously a work in its early days, but great fun all the same.
