Added an Evans Transport skin for Volvo by request.
I may at a later date do the Bideford version with the Evans Transport in the lightbox for Ohaha’s tweak mod.

Stobart Truck Skin Updates
Kate Michelle and Phoebe Grace (classic Volvo) skins have been updated to work with Ohaha’s Volvo Tweak mod.
If you use the Stobart Truck Pack then every thing you need is included in the pack.
If you still use individual trucks then the Stobart white wheel mod has been updated to allow the 6×4 midlift wheel to show in Ohaha’s mod. The Stobart light box image is included in both individual mod packs.
BP & Statoil Gas Stations
I’ve finally gotten around to finishing off the latest gas station in BP.
Also available Statoil. Statoil was a request back in November last year, and was part of the reason I decided to change the format of the gas station mods to give people multiple options over what companies they would like to see.
Malcolm Volvo 2009 Skin Updates
The Old Malcolm and Construction Malcolm Volvo skins have been updated to work with Ohaha’s volvo tweaks mod.
While doing this I have also decided to do away with the individual Malcolm mods and merge all the truck skins into one mod. This makes it easier for me to update and easier for you to keep track of what’s what.
The red wheels are also included in the pack.
Do remember to remove older versions of my malcolm truck skins before installing this one.
More Skin Updates
As with the last couple of updates I am making some of the old classic Volvo’s compatible with Ohaha’s Volvo Tweaks.
Today’s instalments are:
TW Plummer
Linfox
LA Green
DF Miller
Colton, Tate & Lyle & Innovate Updates
As I stated yesterday, I am updating the old Volvo skins to work with Ohaha’s Volvo Tweaks mod.
Today’s instalments are:
Coltons Haulage (now includes painted wheels, and minor skin improvements)
This truck is not meant to use the front side pods. As always it is your choice on truck parts, but if you’re after accuracy use one of the side pod free options in the shop.
Innovate.
Coltons Tate & Lyle Skins (also includes minor update)
As with the main Colton’s skin, this truck is not meant to use the front side pods. As always it is your choice on truck parts, but if you’re after accuracy use one of the side pod free options in the shop.
M. Way & Son skin update
Well I decided to give Ohaha’s Volvo Tweak mod a go for the sake of the custom light box. I have to say I think he’s done some great work, as such I will be updating all my Volvo 2009 skins to be fully compatible with his mod, including giving them light box options.
M. Way & Son was my test truck and I think it’s come out beautifully.
The original mod has now been updated to the updated skin, the lightbox (only available with Ohaha’s mod installed) and custom wheels are also included in the file.
If you aren’t familiar with Ohaha’s mod, check out his post on the scs forum here: Ohaha’s Volvo 2009 Tweaks.
Scania T Stobart & PCHamilton Skins
Both of these skins are made to work with the Scania T mod by RJL/Fordsonmies. In both cases these skins are made as replicas and as such are designed for specific parts to be used when painted. Please read the “correct parts” file included in the rar file to set up the trucks appropriately. Deviations may cause problems with how the painted areas look.
First up the classic Stobart T Cab – H777 Kerry Jane. Normal cab with spoilers. (please note this is NOT part of the Stobart Truck pack.)
The red/amber line on the bonnet is stretched due to the truck model, there is nothing I can do to fix that.
PC Hamilton Topline Scania T.
BSM Updated
So I have had to update again due to the white Tesco trailer. The LOD had an issue that caused the parked AI trailer to vanish at certain distances.
Part of the reason that this trailer has been a bit of a pain is due to the fact it is a trailer that has been updated for two older games to ETS2 by other people. Blender is a bit funny with the model so there’s very specific things I need to do in Blender to make it work properly in game, that I don’t have to do with standard SCS models. Since I hadn’t used the trailer model in a while I had forgotten what needed to be done.
Unfortunately some issues only show up in certain situations, so it some times involves a lot of play time to notice these issues. I routinely check my game logs and that is how I spotted this issue.
If you think it’s annoying having to update your mod for fixes, imagine how it must be for me thinking I have fixed something and then a week later realising there was another issue that didn’t show up earlier. From what I can tell, all issues with the trailer have now been fixed and I sincerely hope I will not need to do anything else with it (as quite frankly the trailer is starting to piss me off.)
v1.04.3
Maxol update
Maxol was one of the very first gas station skins I ever made. In updating to the new mod format I noticed that one of the variations was really badly done and had white boarders around the Maxol text.
I have now updated the skin and in the process updated the small logo as well.
