Hey all, I'm excited to announce a new content pack that is currently in development for Ferd's FVTM mod. For those not familiar with FVTM, it's a content pack based vehicle mod for 1.12.2 and 1.20.1. Roughly 4 years ago I released the "Heavy Truck Pack" for 1.12.2, and I was finally able to get back into working on a new pack late last year.
Currently Implemented Vehicles
GM 2500HD Pickups
Currently there are 5 configurations of 2500HD pickups-
Regular cab long bed
Larger bed, two seats. Crew cab short bed
Normal bed, 5 seats.
Crew cab long bed
Larger bed, 5 seats. Takes a lot more room to turn.
Extended cab short bed Extended cab long bed
GM 3500HD Pickups
3500HD pickups all come with duals and long beds. Three configurations- Regular cab long bed
Crew cab long bed
Extended cab long bed
GM 3500HD Chassis Cabs
3500HD chassis cabs have a wider selection of beds/bodies, including dump bodies, service bodies, and flatbeds. There are two different lengths. Regular Cab
Suburban 2500
Three row SUV with seating for 7. Opening rear hatch instead of a tailgate.
Planned Future Vehicles
GM 1500 Pickups
1500 series pickups. Modeling is partially complete, not implemented in game. There are a few different configurations-
-Regular cab short bed
-Regular cab long bed
-Extended cab normal bed
-Crew cab short bed (shown)
Tahoe SUV
Modeling really hasn't been started, but it uses the same body as the suburban but shorter. Same 8 seat capacity, but less cargo space.
Express Vans
Full size cargo/passenger van, and cutaway van for various bodies. Modeling hasn't been started.
Current Pickup Interior/Controls
Keyboard Controls:
W- Throttle up (down while reversing)
S- Throttle down (up while reversing)
A- Steer left
D- Steer right
[space]- Brakes
R- Vehicle inventory/GUI
L- Light toggle. Cycles between off, low beams, high beams, and fog lights.
Hitbox Based Controls: On top of the normal FVTM keybinds, the pickups have light controls that can be clicked on while in the driver's seat.
1. Low beam switch
2. Fog light switch
3. High beam switch
4. Turn signal switch
All of the red needles in the cluster and all of the cyan colored polygons light up with lights.
Doors and the tailgate can all be toggled by clicking handles. External handles are only accessible from outside the vehicle, interior handles from inside.
Pickup Accessories
Hitches, toolboxes, racks, flatbeds, hitches, and bumpers can all be installed/removed. Currently included:
Steel Bumper- The normal front bumper can be uninstalled with the FVTM "Part Removal and Maintenance Toolbox".
Toolboxes- Installs in a pickup bed. No inventory yet due to it not being implemented in 1.20 FVTM.
Headache Racks- Installs on a pickup bed. Black and chrome options, and they have tail/reverse lights.
Flatbeds- Pickup bed must be uninstalled before install. Built in gooseneck hitch.
Lumber Racks- Installs on a pickup bed. Inventory for wood is planned.
Gooseneck Hitch- Installs in a pickup bed, used to tow a gooseneck or cattle trailer.
Hitches- There are three hitches currently, and they install below the rear bumper. "LD" hitches are used to tow small utility trailers, "HD" hitches are used to tow equipment and dump trailers, and "pintle" hitches are used to tow heavy duty pintle trailers.
Cab Lights- 3500HD trucks come with cab lights, but they can also be added to the 2500HD pickups.
The following bodies can be installed on the 3500HD chassis trucks- Service Bodies- Service bodies have 6-8 bins and a slot for a rear hitch. When inventories are implemented in FVTM, each bin will have a seperate inventory to keep all of your items organized. Stake Bodies- Stake bodies are a large flatbed to carry pallets or other cargo. There is also a slot for a rear hitch. Contractor Body- Flatbed with toolboxes and stakes.
Trailers
Trailers will be in separate content packs. It will be released shortly, and most of the pack is ready.
Now compatible with 1.12.2 and 1.20.1, yes, the same file! Install any FVTM packs in the mods folder in 1.20.1, or resource packs folder in 1.12.2. You will need to turn on the pack as a resource pack and restart MC in 1.12.
Figured I'd show off another WIP content pack, this time the heavy trucks. These screenshots are in the 1.20.1 version of the FVTM mod, and yes the dump body lifts/lowers from the cab. Unfortunately there isn't any dirt loading/unloading functional in FVTM but it is planned.
And..... here is one of the trailers. Backhoe trailer pulled behind a dump truck. FVTM has fairly accurate trailer physics when backing. The jack here is shown down, but the handle is clickable to raise the trailer jack and lower it.
Quick update. Got a cattle trailer, racks, a steel bumper, a flatbed, various wheel options, and a toolbox visible. Most parts that aren't preinstalled on spawning are installed via interaction with the vehicle directly while outside of it, and when you have parts in hand a hitbox will show up where the part can be installed. One rack and the flatbed have working turn and reverse lights.
-Three bed/cab configurations for the 2500HD truck
-Two bed/cab configurations for the 3500HD dually truck
-Two length configurations for the 3500HD dually chassis
FVTM V4 was just released for 1.12.2, meaning the GM pickup pack is now compatible with 1.12.2. Same file as 1.20.1.
I am working towards an update on the GM pack, but is there any interest in what pack I start work on next? I plan on heavily focusing on a powerline pack when FVTM wire compatibility drops for 1.20 and 1.12, but until then, I have packs and vehicles with various amounts of work done. Some options-
Kenworth Truck pack. This would have the T880 I posted above, along with T800s, T480s, and W900
Aerial Lift Pack. Functional bucket trucks and lifts (example attached)
GM HD Trucks. Old and new GM medium and heavy duty trucks
Military Suplus. FVTM does not have and nor will it have guns (per the mod creator, Ferdinand) but I have thrown around the idea of modeling some US military vehicles. I do have an M939 5 ton truck model partially made, and some other potential vehicles would be HMMWVs, 7 ton trucks, humvee trailers, and CUCV/LSSV variants of pickup trucks.
