Looking good!

I've managed to get the animation right, but I cannot move the wheel upwards so you can see the speedometer etc, I'll keep at it. I'm not sure if it's the wheel model, anim or what.

Edit: I'm a loss and just hitting a brick wall. I only needed to move the steering wheel upwards and now it's reset to the default "broken state" and I cannot for the life of me get it back to where it was or remember what I did to get it there. My short term memory is awful and this is annoying me now.

I can't release it covering up the speedometer but that's the only working version I have at the moment.

Hey! I just wanted to say thank you for keeping this mod updated. It's great! Just curious if you'll get the windows animated?

I doubt it at the moment, animations are really difficult for me.

I know HFG has tutorials on how to do it but he knows what he's doing, I've only looked into them last night.

@horseman89 Thanks for the tip, working as shown!


Downloads will be updated in the OP soon.

Update:

Fixed GPS screen glare (Thanks to @horseman89
Cleaned up interior files (Huge thanks to @yukonjack_ak for that and getting the dashboard lights working when head lights are on.)
Dashboard lights now active when headlights are on.
Dashboard lights colour has been changed from green to white for a more neutral look.
Removed Sound folder from the main mod. The truck now uses default SCS VNL sounds (You will not need the seperate VNL Engine Sounds file by me anymore, and it makes for a slightly tidier mod folder.)


I need someone who can animate to make it 1.42 ready due to the steering wheel being incorrectly positioned.

I want to thank you for bring this Volvo back to life. Not sure what mod load order I need. I get a big white glow under the truck with the head lights on. Also I don't get any sound from the turn signals inside the cab.

@jjjjgr I'll double check now but last night it was working fine.

This truck has only been tested on it's own on a mod testing profile.

I'll edit with screenshots and a video showcasing the sounds.

Edit: I just redownloaded the truck from the OP, the only mod in my mod manager on this profile. Please see the below video showcasing headlights, indicators, interior sounds, hazards, dashboard & GPS display.

I'll try it on another profile with less mods on it. I did figure out the turn signal sound. That is working just fine. My only concern is the white glow under the front of the truck with the head lights on.

Again thank you for the update and working on this truck. It has been one of my favorite. Jim

You're welcome. Regarding a white glow, does it look the headlights are pushed back into/under the bumper and not in front of the truck where they should be?

Or is it a "blocky" looking flare with sharp edges? That's a common occurance on outdated flares that are not updated for 1.40 onwards.
