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.

@Flemming V if I recall there is a tile in the template for dolly and trailer fenders, @Erland down load a skin pack and his templates and edit away

also a suggestion

@Flemming V the new low loader trailers have small wheels, and having used Kast's 19.5" Maxion rims from his VAK V-Slider trailer i have come to the conclusion that your trailers (both Drawbar & Tandem) are better with 19.5 inch rims and therefore will probably suit the rims and tyres of the low loaders / lowbeds compared to the standard 22.5 inch tyres, especially on the 2 axle dollis as they are very close.

At some stage would it be possible to alter the container chassis so we have a 20ft and a 40ft container (this may result in a shorter chassis on the unit) and a longer trailer. -

also though this is not mega important regarding the tri-axle tandem and 5 axle drawbars, can you at some point edit the def files to remove the steering on the 3rd and 5th axles, they are not really needed, but instead add steering to axle 1 and 4 of the 4 axle tandem trailer.

Hello
I've started using this mod (great work btw) and found 2 issues:

1) If you use adaptive transmission at "high power", when you start moving from a stop position at full throttle (keyboard/joystick users common behavior), the lower gears have an erratic behavior, shifts very fast, high RPM, spinning wheels if raining, etc. Putting the adaptive transmission on "normal" temporarily fix the issue (not sure about the spinning wheels in rain, didn't got any rain yet after I changed the config)

2) Sometimes when I need to do a hard break (usually crazy AI cutting me), the truck turn off completely. Usually happens if I'm fast like 90km/h, but can also happen on low speeds. I can't reproduce all the time, but I noted when it happens, the gears go down very odd and a super high RPM happens and the engine turn off, so I think this is also some issue with transmissions.

Hope this helps!

Hello, found another issue: border barrier went down as soon as the truck passed and trapped my trailer: https://imgur.com/roS5RC1

This was close to Vidin, Bulgary (I use ProMods, not sure if it's from it or vanilla game)

Edit: this was the first border barrier I passed after enabling the mod, all subsequentes borders barriers this didn't happened, so maybe is not even this mod but something on this particular border, idk.

Hi everybody, with the SCS Volvo FH12 any tandem chassis option I press either in the dealership when buying a new truck or upgrading a truck crashes the game. I tested this multiple times with different variations of mods and it still crashes. The chassis's work with other trucks but not with the 2012 SCS Volvo FH12. This could be just me but I might as well mention it in the topic. Thanks :)

I got another question, would it work if i place the devils.dds in another skin so it would only show when using that skin? I dont want the same box skin for all trucks but just my own truck skins
