I see it for the first time too. Maybe it could be an old bus making never finished or released.

Is important to know where you've found it.

I'm pretty sure that it's a project of Romain de Brest.

Looks like this Mercedes-Benz Citaro G Bibus :

Here i am,
By connecting under mm2speedman I wanted to know how fast people could find out that this picture have a link with my projects. It was not too dificult with the little "bibus" that we cansee on the picture, but the result is over my hopness ! Riva is a very good player at riddles !

First it was because i didn't want that everybody know that i was creating a "new-old" bus for MM2, (the pressure of questions : "when will it be released ?" "can i get it ?" when will it be on line ?"), i didn't want to give me a deadline.

But now i have progressed enought to present it to you :

The Heuliez Bus GX 107

I think to finish it for June, 30th, 2008.

So as Riva said, you can get more screenshots here

Thanks again Riva & Franch88,
I hope you will excuse me for this little riddle

Finally released Romain. I'll try it soon.

Edit: both the buses have some problems with the textures. The texture carrosserie_blanc.bmp, used for a big part of the bus body, it a bitmap file type at 8 bit; this makes it transparent in-game with most recent VGA and drivers. To solve this problem, just remake it saving it at 24 bit.
Then, there aren't the rear and the orange lights on when reverse gear is used in the GX 187.

Hey,
Thanks for the advice.
Indeed i have found the solution after searching during a long time.
But what is very strange is that it was working at my home and not on others computers ?!

I have fixed the bug, but while this time i occured some problems with my web supplier : Orange (France telecom) was blaming me for unaccessibility from index page of some files...

So they have closed my web site where i was hosting GX107&187 pack and citaro Brest 2008.

I have seen with them and it may be right in few hours.

I've check up the orange lights on the GX 187, but all is right :

Indeed there are not orange lights on the trailer, but it's because the trailer doesn't support R_LIGHT : it crashs the game when loading.

EDIT : be aware that the web site has just retrieved its right working. The pack Heuliez is available to download.

Franch88, if you want, you can put it in download on this web site.

It's probably a problem that appears with recent graphic cards and their drivers. As far as I rememebr with my old Nvidia GeForce 4 Ti4200 with old Nvidia drivers I hadn't this problem. Now I've a Nvidia GeForce 6600GT and a pretty recent Nvidia graphic card drivers (with the control panel for graphic settings).

Yeah, it can be. I don't know a lot about trailar objects.

I'll do it, I was just waiting you to solve that texture problem.
