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.

Hello, first of all, my congrats about the mod and the hard work and dedication put on this. We as a community are more than thankful.

Second, It's more than a constructive critique, Isn't the crhome addons, The badge of the Black/White Liner, the ones around the gauges and the pen to shinny? They do look great, but when there's no direct sun into that area, and it's all.. shadowy, when there's no sun inside the cabin it still as shinny as it would be under direct sun light.

Love your work, but being such a detail mod the one u did.. I thought it was wirth pointing it out. Or maybe it's just me. If I'm not clear I can try to explain myself better, english it's not my 1st language.

Cheers

Really nice mod, only bad thing is that it's annoying to upgrade the truck when using it on a fresh profile, the level restrictions for the parts are way too high compared to the stock truck

@Brach I mean there are still light rays hitting those shiny surfaces, also take into account the game engine. Dotec is not responsible for that :)

@CrazyMango73 True that. Yeah that's why I said maybe it was just me.. or maybe I was being to critical about the subject. I have no idea about modding or the game engine itself so i was only making a point rather asking for sth. I apreciate the polite answer tho.

I agree with @Tandef - the level restrictions are way too high. I've always found the restrictions "gamey" anyway - if I've got the money and desire, how long I've been playing the game shouldn't matter. But level 50... I've never kept a profile running for that long before I started a new one!

Its really easy to remove the restrictions if you really dont like them so much, just open the mod with winrar/winzip go to def/vehicle/truck/mercedes.mp3, from there open the cabin files, chassis, accessories and so on (with notepad+) and change the unlock level to your taste...done.

Hi all,
Just to give some news about the new coming sounds, our friend Dotec recorded last weekend with his ZoomH5 an E5 MP3 Actros in both two variants, stock and open pipe.
The stock one sounds excellent, the open pipe is just cherry on the cake and it can wake up the deads.
Both are awesome!
I began to build the both variants of the sound mod.
More to show here later this week. :D
