MudRunner

Glad they removed the having to line up the trailer the trailer in the new patch as that was driving me mad especially when towing a log carrier with the Maz :)

Quite nice as well after the fiasco with oovee that he can start to make the game he always wanted.
This was the main thing people complained about,
how can i get my trailer straight if its in a big hump
 
I feel like we need to get some time trials on this map.


I'm hoping that digitalx is going to have a more difficult/technical map when he finishes his, but I do like a bit of rock crawling
 
It has a short rocky section, but I can expand on that if you wish. Only problem is I am going for a swamp theme but a new trails map is easily done.

I know Spun has a desert map but it may be private.

Planning something sort of unique for this map, never seen it done before and I hope it works. If you want more trials/difficult sections I will put them in :)

Only problem with Tomcat's video is it uses the standard rocks which are not good for traction. Spun and Nix's rocks look much more realistic and have good traction values in the xml.

Stick to your vision man. I like the technical bouldering bits, but equally I like powering through thick swamp trails. As long as it's difficult :)

I like the idea of having some intense steep hills.
 
I like that idea. I have no doubt I will be swearing at those logs fluently.

If you need anyone to test any bits while you're working on it, let me know.
 
The same could be said for the likes of Euro Truck Simulator and American Truck Simulator, but as someone who likes things on wheels (other than F1 and bikes) and games with some realism to them games like this one make a relaxing change for me. ETS and ATS I just put some music on and chill out, but I don't have music on while playing this game because I like listening to the engines. Some parts of the maps in this game can be challenging, but for the most part it feels like you just engage diff lock and 4x4 and you can go pretty much anywhere which I wish wasn't always the case.

Way back in the day when 18 Wheels of Steel (the original) was still a new thing I was enjoying that when a lot of people thought it was a concept that would never work as a game. I'm looking forward to seeing what they do with the northern states on ATS, hoping for the return of snow to some states along the Canadian border.
 
Update news!

Hello all!

It's now been just over two months since Spintires: MudRunner launched, and it's our absolute pleasure to announce the first DLC for Spintires: MudRunner, The Valley.

We currently plan for this first DLC to release in February. It will be a free content update, and available on PC, PS4 and Xbox One. This first DLC will include brand new content for the game, in many different forms. Firstly, it will introduce a brand new map, also called The Valley, which is a very large heavily forested map. Similar to Deluge in the base game, you will start outside of a garage, and will need to claim one for yourself.

In addition to a brand new map, we will also be introducing three new powerful vehicles. These three vehicles can be used on any map, provided you have enough progression points unlocked. Like for other maps and their specific vehicles, you won't have to spend points to use these vehicles in The Valley.

There will be the A-969, a powerful 4x4 vehicle, specially adapted to the heavily forested terrain of The Valley.

The C-6317, a six-wheeled truck able to sport a wide arrangement of add-ons.

And the E-7429, a very large 8x8 truck with a special hidden talent. We'll have more information on each of these vehicles in the lead up to release, in weekly vehicle presentations and factsheets once again.

Not only will there be new vehicles and a new map in The Valley, but there will also be eight new addons.

These are as follows:

  • C-6317 Spare Wheel
  • A-969 Spare Wheel
  • A-969 Fuel Canisters
  • A-969 Garage Parts
  • A-969 Utility Attachment
  • E-7429 Advanced Trailer Hitch
  • E-7429 Repair Kit
  • E-7429 Garage Semi-Trailer (Also compatible with the E-7310 from the base game)
  • Medium log trailer (compatible with some trucks from the base game)
For the modders out there, there will be some more assets for you to play with when making your maps and vehicles!

These are:

  • E-7310 trailer hitch
  • A broken tree asset, which is currently only used on the The Valley
  • A dirt road terrain overlay type, which is also currently only used on The Valley
Players will be able to muck around in The Valley as soon as the DLC is installed, so if you've just got the game, and not finished other maps, don't worry! You can get stuck into The Valley all the same.

Your goals on The Valley will be similar to classic maps, unlocking other garages and lumber mills around the map.

We look forward to sharing you more about the DLC as time goes on!

That's not all, though! In addition to this new DLC news, we'd like to say that we plan on doing a monthly community update for you all, sharing what we're working on, and introducing some cool things that we've seen from the community.

Talk to you soon!
