Non-articulated Wheel-loader.

[PKNecron]

Anyone know of a mod for one? The camera on the in game one is attached the the front of the loader and the jerky motion literally make me nauseous.

And the Telehandler is SOOOOOOOO slow. Especially to raise the bucket up and down.

Hate to say this but if its none articulated it would just go in a straight line...

I was thinking more of rear-wheel stearing.

I dont think there is a wheel loader thats not a split chassis

What your asking for would be a different type of vehicle all together, more like a JCB Digger

Well a large front end loader would work as well. The ones in game are all tiny.

I WISH it was attached to the front. FS2013 had a camera mode where the camera followed the shovel, which made it slightly less painful to use. In FS15 we don't have this, the camera always follows the cabin, which makes it impossible to predict where the front will end up when turning (with a keyboard, at least).

As far as I know there are no modern non-articulated wheel loaders. I do remember the old Volvo BM loaders in the LM series (my dad drove one for a while), that had rear wheel steering, but all newer ones seem to be articulated. I still hope we get SOMETHING with a big shovel that isn't articulated, as that doesn't really work in the Giants engine.

The LM was available as a mod for FS2013, so maybe someone will convert and update it.

I am using a bucket mod now that is at least a work around.

2 buckets that fit a standard loader. 5K and 10K buckets. The 10K is too big and can't be used by any of the standard front loaders in the game, but the 5K is usable with a large enough counter-weight on the back. I found a 2K weight that I am going to try out.
