Just to say I’ve updated 5 more mods on the Workshop.
H Essers, JR Dixon, James Irlam, Marshalls PLC, and McBurney.
McBurney also has a new trailer skin for my Custom Owned Trailer mod Reefer.
The latter two mods have been removed from OneDrive, moving forwards all new releases will be Workshop Exclusive and the download links for OneDrive will be removed as they are updated.
I do have more mods ready to be added to Steam, but I wanted to get updates out for the ones that were already there before adding more combo packs.
Blair and Keedwell got updates today for the Range T skin in Keedwell to work with the new DLC parts, and Blair also got a new addition in the form of the E6 DAF.
As I’ve already mentioned on my FB group, I made the decision to retire some of my Renault T parts from my TAP mod.
Anything not listed below will be staying.
Here’s a list of the removed content:
Side Stripe: SCS changed the model, previously this stripe that runs between the roof and door included the vertical parts of the window frame. Since a full painted version is included in the DLC I chose to retire this piece rather than fix it.
So for those not paying attention all of my ATS mods have been updated to make use of the new shop icon part_type UI has have the majority of my ETS2 workshop mods.
Because this feature (at least right now) is considered optional and doesn’t require an update for the mod to function, I am not pushing out updates like I normally would.
No I haven’t forgotten this place exists. Amongst working on a Patreon mod vs beta testing things just got rather busy. On the bright side I’ve been working on a mod a long time in the making, I get so distracted by other things that it keeps getting neglected.
Any way, as most people are aware by now SCS have teased the Renault T DLC tuning pack. This will likely mean some of my mod parts may become redundant. As I did with the Scania I may decide to remove a few parts to save my self work with updating the mod in future as well as to help support the DLC.
My Custom Trailer mod on Steam Workshop has now been updated to v17.
This versions brings one of the new SCS tippers into the mod. As with my other SCS based trailers, this will have the custom reflectors, marker slots, mudflap, and rear bumpers. For most of the sideskirt options I think SCS did a pretty thorough job this time so there’s nothing new there.
I hope everyone had a good holiday period, I had a very unproductive one, but I did manage to finish off the Irlam mod within my intended time frame.
Those of you on Patreon have had access to a near complete version for several weeks now, but today I finished it off and here we are with a public release.
Before I get into the main reason for the update, I would like to say that some mods will be getting added to the workshop as well.
In 1.43 SCS changed some def information relating to axles on trucks and trailers for compatibilty with future features.
Presently (up to 1.42) the following lines in the def files were as follows:
liftable and/orsteerable axle: X (rear most axle) liftable and/or steerable axle: X (middle axle) liftable and/or steerable axle: X (front axle)
This has now been switched around so that the front axle is now at the top of the list and rear most at the bottom. While the change is minor, it does mean all trucks trailer mods using liftable and/or steerable axles need updating.
Below is a list of all my mods affected and updated.
