Now all I have to do is figure out how to round off the edges.

Edit to add:

I was finally able to get bevel to work, and combined with smooth, I was able to round some corners, making things look better. Smile

Also added the windshield frame.

I like your work, trucker ... hope you can fix that deal with the weight! Smile

Thanks. The weight problem isn't actually a weight problem. Its a programming problem.
I'm looking into making a vehicle collide with water.

Collision truobles huh? What you need is to make the boat be inside the water, (in a way to say it) without colliding with it but colliding at the same time?...(floating)
Well as I haven't got a clue about programming I can just give you and idea, make two meshes, one, without collision, and another one with it, then put the first one (without collision) at the top and the other one in the bottom, so the boat will move freely in the top one and colliding with the bottom one, making a sense of that it's floating, anyway I don't even know how torque works Laughing

It's easier than that. I just made it a hover vehicle. Smile

Now to figure out the proper script for it and it will work. Currently, it's just turning over and sinking.

It floats. Smile

kinda.

Now to get the player facing in the right direction so I can play. Smile

(currently, for some odd reason, I'm looking out the side of the boat.)

Nice solution ... but as always, my **** monitor doesn't allow me to watch proper and brighter screenshots! Laughing

Well that sucks.

I have finally fixed my problem with looking the wrong way. Smile

and got to actually play in it for a bit. Smile

Last update of screenshots.

Here are 2 videos of me playing in my boat. The first one is looking thru the windshield in first person view, the second is the third person camera.
My grandson is going to be super excited.

Wow .. it looks great Cool

Especially the 3PV. But why does the First Person View has a little aim at the center?

Thanks. Still working on getting the smoke and jet emitters working.
