Hi there,


I just wanted to introduce myself-I'm David D., 20 years old, and I currently run a business on the Roblox platform. I’ve built a solid community of over 200,000 people, mainly focused on roleplay.


I grew up on Garry's Mod and loved every second of it. The servers were always insane, you could do whatever you wanted, and most importantly, server owners could actually monetize and build real communities.

That brings me to my question: will S&Box capture the same kind of vibe and community that made GMod so special? I'm seriously thinking about pouring my money into S&Box to grow my community beyond Roblox.

One major thing that matters to us is vehicle physics. Will S&Box have solid, realistic vehicle handling—more like what you'd expect in modern games? For roleplay, vehicle physics are crucial. We’ve pushed Roblox’s limits with tons of customization, and while it’s worked, it’s definitely not ideal. I've attached some pictures to show what we've managed to pull off—this is the kind of experience I’m trying to bring to S&Box, but with way more potential.

Honestly, I'm sick of Roblox. They take a huge chunk of what you earn and make it hard to really grow. I want to expand into deeper roleplay experiences like City RP, Cops & Criminals, and Government systems like being the mayor and holding powerful roles. It's something my community already loves, it’s profitable, but more importantly, it’s just a blast to build.

"Note: FiveM / The upcoming gta 6 won't be an option for us. We want the full creative freedom.*

Sincerely,
David D.

Here's some pictures of what we're working on and what I'd like to see in S&Box.

https://sbox.game/meteorlab/vehicletool  This library is really cool and makes it possible to create something realistic because it has a ton of options

effects sounds and lights its most easy thing if you already have models for that

The below project is the best vehicle physics I've seen on S&box at the moment which makes me hopeful for future vehicle projects on S&box. However, as it is early days, there seems to be very little out of the box so you would have to create vehicle physics yourself. I'm sure, there's many of people prototyping this themselves.
