Nice spot Crush. The lightbar, as well as a pro flow hood, are WH parts available in the next release. Should have something in a day or two. Just want to sqeeze in a few more things before i do.

Hey Drew, no need to switch. I downloaded the droid develoment kit today and hope to have a compiled version to test tomorrow. I have no idea how seemless it will be, so how long it takes to get everything working is anyones guess. Maybe a few days, maybe a few weeks (ugh).

Yes please update with customizable colors BlameJane. Be able to change the wheels would be nice also but I understand that is no small thing to change. So many different wheels out there. It would be cool to be able to do the other kind of rear quarters that have the front fender lip welded on. All in all a great app. I look forward to updates

Thanks again everyone for all of your support and feedback on the app.

Brad you're correct, it's no small task to add wheels. In fact, the wheels and tires are the most difficult parts to add; tires more so. Because of this, I would really like to poll everyone who's interested on what wheels they would like to see included in the app. I'm not familiar with what's popular, so any help from you guys would be great. Give me the name of a few and we can do a poll (hopefully Jon won't mind).

Let's hear it guys...name some wheels!

Slots, factory hub caps, steel wheels, solid aluminum, chrome spoke and chrome modular. Maybe some of the newer more modern type

It would also be cool to have the option to add the factory type of side molding and stripes (Ranger, special decor...) Just a thought. I really like the app

Trim packages are in the works, and I'm hoping to work with Drew (Bronchitis) for the vinyl stripe kits. :cool:

WH Light bar and WH Pro Flow hood...

Awesome Jane! Bring on the Android version!!!!! Glad to see that you are charging for your immense work! Wish it was $9.99 or more. Maybe on another release.

I posted up on a couple of the Facebook groups. Seems to get folks excited. If it were me, I would offer in app purchases of customization pacs. Stroppe pack, special police/fire pack etc. and you probably want to start on a Heep app before someone else jumps on it.

Definitely a great idea to have in app purchases for add on packs with all proceeds going to the Dev for her hard work. And you've got to get a Heep app first! Part of the Builder line of apps! You ROCK Jane! The Great service to your bretheren is creating this app and you and your family being rewarded for your talents and hard work. It can add up. Lots of people will greatly benefit from having this tool made available to them by you. THANK YOU OUR BRONCO SISTER! Folks this type of work is in NO Way easy or quick to create. It takes a tremendous toll on a person.

Love the app. Can't wait for you to add more options. This is the Bronco I am building.

Thanks for posting it on FB HB, never thought of that. I have the same idea about in-app purchases, though I never thought of the special police/fire pack; love that idea!

Thanks so much forester. I'm actually on the Heep app too, posting on my old heep forum to show off bronco builder and gauge interest in a heep version. Of course there were no views on my thread and then the moderator deleted it; I'm not allow to promote my app unless I'm a vendor. I'm not giving up though, this is gonna happen.

There's just so much to do, but that's a good thing. My priorities are: finish the next minor release of BB which will include the new hood, light bar, and ability to change the top color. The color picker feature might make this release; not sure. Finish the Android version. Get a bare bones Heep app out with limited features, just so I can get a jump on the market. Maybe they can take the top off and doors off, and change the body color!

Here are the package ideas I have so far:

Crawler Package: Baja seats, Full cage, Jerry Cans, Bumper (not sure which), Steering Wheel, Tires, Wheels, Decal, ...?

Decal/Sticker Package: Flames, chamo wrap, other wraps??, Race numbers (77, 81, etc), Tribal, ...?

Environment Package: Different backdrops for the bronco (instead of the garage). Showroom, museum, 60's diner, warehouse, 4x4 trail, ... ?

Kids Package: Clown parts, Mr. Potato head parts, ...?

Post-Apacolyptic Package: Urban environment, chains, mismatched tires, rust, welded-on fuel tanks, armor plating, guns, turrets, ...?

Police/Fire truck: thanks HB!
