Big Stars - Actros/Arocs SLT [1.48.*|V1.7.3|07.08.2023]

Would it be possible to include slots for Signs on your Truck mod, or am I asking too much?

[Bulldozer 1973]

Very nice Pictures Stefan. I liked.

Thanks for your comments!

@galimim: It was to much AND that wasn't an answer to my question!
I have already noticed that mod and it looks really good.
I will have a look at it. (perhaps for small signs at the front)

For "heavy signs" i haven't decided, how to realize them. (mountable on slots or as extra accessory)
Because of the plans, to offer different sizes, shapes, positions and mounting techniques for several signs (like Convoi Exceptionnel,SAERTRANSPORT,Schwertransport, and others)

Best regards,
Stefan

I didn't answer because I don't use any

I see. I am mentioning it because it is a good mod and maybe you can make use of it, so you don't have to do everything from scratch.

Hi there

First of all...GREAT WORK! I love Actros, so i love BigStars too

I'd love to use one of the BigStars as my Maintruck, because for me its not just a "Heavy Truck", but for me something important is missing. Maybe you can help me "fixing" it?

I'd love to use more powerful engines and transmissions. I already downloaded many of the known mods out there and they are good and working in my other trucks, but i cant choose them when buying a BigStar.

Is there any way to use other engine and transmission?

Thanks

I have created a basic set of 6 flashers, based on smalllights by scs.

Very early look at the first heavy sign. - CONVOI EXCEPTIONNEL / 1900x250mm / Position 1
Have to create proper textures and bend that sign into the shape of the truck.

@Franz Meersdonk: Sorry, at this point, there is no easy answer.
Mainly the defs have to "use" "example.mercedes.actros2014.wtd.engine" or "example.mercedes.arocs.wtd.engine" instead of "example.mercedes.actros2014.engine".
Same goes for transmissions.
Furthermore, you have to add defs for badges of Big Stars (suitable for the added engines).
It also depends on the version, the mod is based on. (defaults-suitable rules or newer override rule)

Best regards,
Stefan
