I see KB3D has at least one new kit, which is already available on torrents. What was interesting is that they have implemented their Cargo exclusive content now. It's a full blown hospital kit. Sucks that this probably won't make it out to the wild anytime in the near future.
I guess Age of Egypt is new but, for some reason, it's not half off like they normally price new kits. Hope we'll see that one in the wild soon. Since the person who normally shared KB stuff here is 'taking a break' :), looks like torrents is the best option.
July 17, 2023 at 3:28 pm #2000203What torrent site is it on? If it's one I'm a member of I'll grab it for us.

July 18, 2023 at 7:58 am #2000509I love kitbash3d's stuff - i wish i could get my hands on the new 'emergency response" one but i can't find it...
July 18, 2023 at 11:29 am #2000672@5200north, it's going to be interesting to see how Cargo exclusive content gets shared. Emergency Response does look really cool tho.
@ethiopia, I got Future Warfare from GCPeers. It's also available on their sister site GCPersia if you have premium accounts on one of their hosts or want to use the free download route and take 5 days to download it.July 18, 2023 at 11:39 am #2000675July 18, 2023 at 11:50 am #2000682Thanks @warrent63. And, of course, to the original sharer - he who must not be named ;o)
July 18, 2023 at 6:03 pm #2000865The Cargo-exclusive stuff will eventually appear, but it's not packaged the same way ordinary kits are. Rather than having a single bundle with 350 assets, you have 350 (x7 engines) raw assets to download and then assemble into a bundle for distribution. It's a time-consuming pain in the ass, basically 🙂
The Cargo model is asset-oriented, not kit-oriented in other words--you're expected to download only the assets you want rather than having to download an entire kit. It's also in the spirit of kitbashing, in that it makes it a lot easier to mix and match assets from different kits using a single asset browser and per-asset metadata (like the Daz "Smart Content").
You can use Cargo to download every asset in a kit (for every engine) and assemble it into what the kit would have looked like, but it's nowhere near as easy as buying and downloading the kit as a pre-assembled package.

August 9, 2023 at 9:36 am #2010952Soon.
August 9, 2023 at 11:10 am #2010982Wow! Knock my socks off amazing! This is exactly the kind of thing I love. I'd buy it if it had more interiors (bedroom and lounge?) and lots of bit's and pieces. I love to assemble gizmos and over-complicated thing-a-ma-bobs from lots of separate gears, pistons, levers and other mechanical pieces. I think I'll drop them a line and ask.
