Actually, I found a issue with the interiors but instead of missing GPS, it's black textures with no error in the log
It gives the New Actros (Schumi's MP4) black textures as well

Update: with Schumi's MP4 loaded above this mod, GPS goes missing

[Loyal4ets2]

I ask schumi for a fix and said that it's not from his mod. Maybe if we have a chance to found a fix from this author.

@Loyal4ets2 Why should a modder "repair" his mod without causing trouble when used alone?
You have 2 possibilytis:
- Use 1 truck mod in 1 profile (create nwe profile for each truck mod)
- Learn modding and correct the mods yourself

Hey guys,
Big Stars was just updated to 1.6.6, to support ETS2 1.41.*!
- changed defs of the additional reverse lights (to actual methods/techniques) .... (This fixed toooooooo bright additional reverse lights) @NOOFNOOFNOOF

Updated steam and google - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vNsPii ... sp=sharing

About problems with other mods: In most cases it's all about replacing vs adding vs using original files.
Big Stars for example doesn't include interior files (3D & 2D). It adds definitions to load the files of the game.
If some mod is replacing/changing the original files, this almost inevitably leads to problems.
Future mods will include everthing. So other mods can't affect my vehicles unintentionally.

Best regards,
Stefan

Super Mercedes Truck

I enjoyed the previous version very much, but I found that although these trucks seemed to be available for quick jobs, they would not display an icon with the job, nor would the truck name appear when I hovered over it. Upon selecting such jobs, the game would crash to the desktop immediately. So I was wondering if this mod supports quick jobs. If not, it would be great if the author could add this feature. Unfortunately, I had to delete all my previous profiles (lvls 45, 62 and 71) a couple of days ago and it is going to take me a long time to make enough money to buy one of these (which are super expensive, btw), so I would appreciate being able to drive them on quick jobs.

Also, in the previous version, I found that the fifth wheel was too high and collided with the trailer bulkhead. I don't know if this is because the trucks are meant for oversize and heavy cargo trailers (which look like a low-loader with a gooseneck) or if it was the 315/80 tires on the driven axles that were raising the fifth wheel up a bit. Some clarification would be welcome, because these trucks are absolutely brilliant!

@Winchester1979 At some point i will definitely resume the work on Big Stars 2. Eventually even streaming the progress on twitch.
@AlwaysLonging I never had the intention to add these trucks to quick jobs. Investigation of fifth wheel height is an task for future projects. But so far, it always seems to have been due to "normal trailers" (probably also wheel dimensions)


New Version: 1.6.7 for ETS2 1.42.X
- removed wheel_anim attribute
- added "remote sound definitions" for convoy
