SCS as a company do not wish to have paid mods on this forum. While we understand that not all paid mods use the Intellectual Property of other companies/people, it is very hard to moderate what is and isn't acceptable when money is involved. There are also concerns that it could look unfavorable to potential work partners going forward if SCS allow mods that may potentially use unlicensed branding.

International HX Brochure wrote:Introducing the new International® HX® Series. Our latest, greatest, biggest, baddest, toughest, most premium, precision sledgehammer. Built to endure, thrive and dominate any assignment, the HX Series can handle whatever you throw at it. And just like you, the HX Series can take it on the chin and keep moving forward until the job is pinned down into submission – all without breaking a sweat.
This is a standalone truck made partially from scratch and using SCS LoneStar cabin + chassis models. It's using my friend Kriechbaum's newest Cummins X15 engine sounds. There are also a few simple skins included made by Klunk, Pauly, Lucasi and SirBlackyAlot.

Available at my steam workshop

A brief background story: I started working on this truck right after it's announcement in December 2020. I thought it should be a simple mod - I would use the Lonestar cabin and only model the front part of the truck. Unfortunately at that time there was very little reference material - a few pictures, two brochures and a video. Despite that, I think I managed to shape the model pretty close to the real thing. In May 2021 International launched the HX Series online configurator where people can see the truck in a 3D viewport, freely rotate it and see many available accessories. I had the mod almost ready back then but decided to fix a few things I haven't realized before seeing the truck in detail. All in all the mod turned out to be quite a bit of an endeavor but I think it was worth it. I'm very happy with the end result and hope you will like it was well :)

Features:
  • fully functional truck :)
  • 3 cabins: daycab, 56 and 73 inch High Rise Sleeper,
  • 6 chassis lengths, from 212 to 300 inch wheelbase, 6x4, 8x4 and 8x6,
  • 6 fuel tank volumes, from 100 to 280 gallons,
  • 6 Cummins X15 engines,
  • Elite Diamond interior,
  • a few customization options,
  • 3 predefined configurations available at International dealer,
  • available for quick jobs (including separate configurations for heavy and oversized cargoes)
Optional content: IMPORTANT NOTE regarding 8x6 chassis - I moved the 5th wheel closer to the middle drive axle than stock SCS trucks to distribute the trailer weight evenly - this may cause issues with some trailers.

Please do not redistribute/reupload this mod to other sites. By doing so you are harming this fragile modding community, literally causing many good modders to stop sharing their creations publicly.


Skin template is in the mod but here I extracted it for your convenience: https://drive.google.com/file/d/18nSWtL ... 1IIUoU3UuF

Man this truck is awesome! Any chance of getting the 56 inch low rise sleeper in the future the high rise is ugly as sin lol. Also is it possible to get the color code of the gold you used on Changeable Metallic 1? I can't get gold to look good on any of the metallic skins I make but you knocked it out of the park. Thanks!
