@Deezle Looking great! Will there be an amber light on the pup's tongue?

Hard to see in that pic but it's there. It's just a marker light, not the flashing beacon used on a regular dump pup, they don't use those on transfer dump trailers.

@Roadkill They don't have those since to transfer you have to back over the reach. That's why the reach is so low.

Correct, the ones here have the flashing light on the long bar but those trailers are actual dump trailers and not a transfer system.

Right, the truck disconnects from the trailer, dumps its load then backs up to the trailer to transfer its load to the truck then it dumps that load. Whew. Cool system.
So @Deezle is going to animate that whole process? :o :lol: :lol: That would be very cool. 8-) Nice work.

@Roadkill I don't think that's possible in ats but that would be cool.

I could do some tricks like I did with my short logger, I could make the tub disappear from the trailer when it's disconnected and appear in the truck. There's a few problems with this approach, such as if the trailer was loaded, the load would appear to still float over the trailer chassis. I figured I'd keep this simple.

I am fine with the way it is its the looks I want not the the functionality. Also I'm so exited for this and it looks great from your screenshots. Also I love the Olson truck paint you have in your signature.
