The vehicle is a heavily modified Dodge Ram 3500 with 1\/8 inch thick steel armour, as well as hydraulic flaps and spikes to anchor the vechicle to the ground, which will prevent the vechicle flying in tornadic winds.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s designed to work with **_Protomanly&#8217;s Weather Mod_**.<\/p>\n<p> ![tiv2ingame](https:\/\/cdn.modrinth.com\/data\/cached_images\/410b3fecf48aeb5f1e01fccb07af6ae9addb8208.png)<br \/>\n                                       ![real tiv2](https:\/\/cdn.modrinth.com\/data\/cached_images\/54dc9671c38f5a83786ef35e6afdbb27eb064da8_0.webp)<br \/>\n                                                    _(real TIV2 compared to minecraft)_<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/kbLFvkM_4w4\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p># Deployment placement matters!<br \/>\nThe mod has a mechanic that determines your threshold based on the terrain the vehicle is on. This means that you cannot deploy on a single block, over a hole or on uneven terrain since **you will get lofted easier**<\/p>\n<p>The optimal placement is when every wheel of the tiv is on the ground<\/p>\n<p>![good placement](https:\/\/cdn.modrinth.com\/data\/cached_images\/b33849c1ff24c48fa94890cf51f10ead5a338f0f.png)<\/p>\n<p>However, if the tiv is deployed on uneven terrain with many holes and parts of the body in the air the threshold will change accordingly<\/p>\n<p>![bad placement](https:\/\/cdn.modrinth.com\/data\/cached_images\/d1be624634b651cb11f2f6382d182918e71644c6.png)<br \/>\n# Controls<br \/>\n&#8211; Deploy\/Undeploy &#8211; X<br \/>\n&#8211; Toggle headlights on\/off &#8211; H<br \/>\n&#8211; Drive forward &#8211; W<br \/>\n&#8211; Drive backwards &#8211; S<br \/>\n&#8211; Turn left &#8211; A<br \/>\n&#8211; Turn right &#8211; D<br \/>\n&#8211; Reset max windspeed &#8211; 0 (zero, not O)<br \/>\n&#8211; Pick up vehicle &#8211; Shift + Right-click<br \/>\n&#8211; Handbrake &#8211; Space<br \/>\n&#8211; Change seats &#8211; B<br \/>\n&#8211; Enter\/Exit imax turrent &#8211; up arrow (if you are sitting in 3rd seat)<br \/>\n# Weather 2 support<br \/>\nFor now, only **versions below 1.3.3** work with Weather2<br \/>\n# How to change threshold<br \/>\nThe tiv has a default deployed threshold of 220 MPH, and 120 MPH undeployed.

Please stop asking for it<\/p>\n<p>*-Will it be ported to forge\/older versions? (mainly forge 1.20.1)*<\/p>\n<p>Yes, it is expected but not on the top of our list right now<\/p>\n<p>*-Is it coming to curseforge?*<\/p>\n<p>Unless pmw releases on cursforge, no<\/p>\n<p>*-Can i become a tester?*<\/p>\n<p>No, we don&#8217;t really need testers, since we know our code best and exactly what bugs to look for. Also don&#8217;t say this just because you want to play with the new features. Be patient<\/p>\n<p>-_Can I post it on (insert random social media\/website other than modrinth) (yes i am talking about telegram, or curseforge)_<\/p>\n<p>No. The only legal way to download the mod is through modrinth.<\/p>\n<p># Credits<br \/>\nTo Raptor, who helped develop the early stages of the mod and made it more fun, and testing features with me <\/p>\n<p>To Elton, who made all of the more complex code that i could only dream of doing in Mcreator that makes the mod actually fun to play<\/p>\n<p>To Metro, who made all the crazy models that really put the mod to life, i don&#8217;t think i could ever find a better modeler than him<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A mod that adds the Tornado Intercept Vehicle 2 (TIV2) to the game!
