Thumbs up Rigs of Rods - Simulator game (free)

Rigs of Rods is a game Ive been playing for a few years... Its 100% free and you can drive vehicles on many various different terrains. All vehicles and terrains are made by the community. Some look awesome and some are very basic...You can drive cars, trucks, tow trailers, semis, boats, and fly planes. I made a lame video, because someone is finally making a K5...its in its early stages and not yet available to download on the repository.

I used to play this game and its pretty good my computer just sucked. There's a ton of different cars and trucks you can download and use in it.

Sounds like fun! I'm at school though so I can't see the video

I might download the game when I get home.

I'm having trouble with the content pack. I tried to unzip the file, but it won't open on 7. Even with a file unzip... thing.

I tried to DL it last night as well. Downloaded the game file but it wouldn't play. Tried a couple of things and I still got nothing. Does it need the content pack? The site I got it from said "you may want to DL this as well".

I read through the forums, and the Content pack is required. However, it's a ZIP file, and it won't open on my computer. I wonder if this game will even work on 7.

The game runs on windows 7, that's what I have on my rig. You don't have to download the content pack, just dl the game exe, you can manually add terrain and vehicle files. You do so in the rigs of rods directory located in your documents.

I'll have to try that. Those aren't zip files are they?
