Aren't paintjob packs usually cheaper than that?

[parasaurolophus67]

2 dollars is still cheap.

[SirVirgoTheMess]

I thought they were usually cheaper : they are $2.19.I'll think about it.

[xXCARL1992Xx]

all paintjobs are 1.99€, country paint jobs are 99 cents, there is no price difference to the other non country skin dlcs

Pack of paintjobs purchased, I will not use. I bought to support SCS in future updates. They need our money, we need them for new content. Thank you SCS, continue the hard work!

Erm, no. There's like two "one size fits all" boxes, with tiny height differences for SM/Krone trailers, and a couple of accessories (sideguards and paintable cooler units), that's about it. Oh, and food tanks, which are... meh, couldn't care less about those.
They did it this way because they can get away with it. It's just a sensible business decision, "minimally viable product" and all that.

I'll let you keep that mindset if that's your opinion, I'll keep mine. There are different sizes and lengths so its not a one size fit all if you want the graphic to center on the trailer correctly. Some are the similar but not all. I'll provide the list of boxed trailers for you for both games. I am no skinner but I am sure each of these trailer types have to be addressed individually. To me, its a lot, its not just 3-4 to do. ATS is perhaps easier because the pup doubles and triples are the same as the lead trailer as well as the trail for RMDs. All NA trailers in the game are the same box too.

double and b-double is the same, there is no difference if the smaller trailer body is in front or back, uses same body

[flight50]

I didn't even account for the b-double nor TPD in ATS but they'd be the same too as they are still just doubles.

[xXCARL1992Xx]

if the sizes are the same it will use the same body, SCS did it the smart way, why model 2 bodys that are 1:1 the same if you can just reuse, HCTs are the same, 2 normal semi trailers, almost exact copy of them except the chassis on trailer 1

[SirVirgoTheMess]

I guess by color preset,that they mean there's the same paintjob...but with different colors(which can be changed anyway)?
I'm going to buy the pack.I've prepared a Renault Range T anyway.

EDIT : looks like the mod i'm using isn't working well with the new paintjobs.That was to be expected.
