Request for Old Pickup Truck "Armor"

Recommended Posts

Would anyone be willing to create an equippable 'Old Pickup Truck' that either replaces or covers up the player's body to simulate the appearance of driving around the New Vegas wasteland?

 

In my ideal situation, the truck would not be something that could be picked up into inventory, but that would remain in the game world with a map marker. When activated, the player would disappear or be repositioned inside the truck somehow, and then the truck would move around just as the player moves around using WASD and the mouse.

 

Activating the truck again would cause the player to reappear beside it and the truck to remain where it was 'parked' indefinitely with a fast travel map marker to show its location. Perhaps various engine sounds could be added in an audio template so that the truck appears to idle when activated and the character is standing still, rumble low if activated and the character is walking, or rumble loudly if the character is running?

 

There was a vaguely similar mod for FO3 by J3X that made it possible to drive around in a Chimera Tank. I recall it being somewhat unstable but am not sure why. I was hoping this would be a stripped down version of that, doing away with the weapons and steering scripts in hopes of reducing strain on the game engine.

 

Here is a link to that Chimera Tank mod: http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=3981

 

I tried to make a very simple version of this in the GECK myself, but I'm pretty useless with it and haven't been able to get past what I'm sure is a very basic pair of stumbling blocks with the truck model appearing to stand on its front end when equipped and when dropped, ending up as a cage around the player due to collision inside the truck cab.

 

Is this a pretty complicated mod to make? I'm so inexperienced with the GECK that I am not even aware honestly.
