Problems with adapting truck from v1.26 to v1.28 EDIT!! v1.25 not 1.26!

[SimenGH]

Hey guys, I have a truck i made in zmod in v1.26 of ETS2 which i am now trying to convert into 1.28. I made it of Punishers "Scania Streamline Megapack" mod at the time. When i try to load a new save of ETS 2 with NO other mods in it, the game crashes as i go into truck dealer and choose truck 6 i believe which is the streamline. My crash log looks like this:

00:00:28.709 : <WARNING> Ignoring obsolete attribute 'motor_brake' of unit 'dc16_730.scania.s.engine' (of type 'accessory_engine_data').

As you can tell, 00:00:45 is the time i select the truck i have modified. I am now lost and dont know what i need to do. Can anyone help me? I see the truck.pmg file is really big, but it worked on 1.26 so that should not be a problem?

Thanks. Simen

The "incorrect file version" warning for your PMGs is to be expected, version 1.27 introduced a new PMG format. An export from an up-to-date Zmodeler should fix this.

The last error "Missing model descriptor '/vehicle/truck/scania_streamline/interior/anim.pmd'" really surprised me. I checked the base, and wow, yes, the file is gone. Along with almost everything else in "/vehicle/truck/scania_streamline". This folder is deserted. The last version which had the expected contents was 1.25.

To me, it looks like the Streamline is now a variant of the basic Scania model, and no own separate model anymore. This was done with 1.25 latest, but the now obsolete model files were removed from the base in 1.26, only. How your mod was able to deal with this absence in 1.26 I have no idea.

And hey, the whole folder "/def/vehicle/truck/scania.streamline/c_equip" disappeared even in version 1.24!

Anyway, a lot has changed with the Streamline, and the only solution is to change the definition files by replacing the paths to various files. More I can't say, I have not much experience with truck-related modding, and none of it when it comes to a Scania.

Hey Reinhard!

1. Export from an up to date zmod. No problem, but do i use 1.25 base or 1.28 base when exporting?

2. I also searched around the base, and it seems that there has been major changes since 1.25 base-wise. Thats also where all of my errors come from, which really bothers me because this is beyond my level of modding.. I realize now that my mod has had to been a 1.25 mod and not a 1.26. I could not quite remember to be honest. But my profile with the mod in that I played at that time had some 1.26 version mods in it. They may have worked with 1.25 then?

I am really struggling here. So much time used on this truck all gone for 2-3 versions of the game now. Really sucks.

I still need help if anybody has an idea.

And thank you very much Reinhard, I will try to figure this out and if I do manage to fix it, I will of course explain how on this thread.
