drove the mod for the last 2 days and it is great, was already contemplating to adapt the Krone Dolly i have to it but your hook point is higher then that from the dolly, so i wont even bother with it :rofl:

some changes i had to make regardless but mostly on the Cab and the Chassis also because of the stupid way SCS made the bottom part of the door part of the cab and the steps part of the chassis, so it is impossible to add plastic parts to it without modifying the cab and chassis files first :roll:

but when loading the MAN chassis i noticed the air tank on the driver side behind the trailing axle has a hole in the mesh, maybe you deleted to much somewhere along the line accidentally ?

@xXCARL1992Xx Thank you for the information!
I will fix it in the next update!
SCS really did some stupid things in the past. It got a bit better with the new trucks, as they separated each part, that (might) has(have) plastic.
That is a reason why it takes quite long to get a good looking chassis even without a BDF-Carrier-System on top of it... ;)

thats why i cut them up for me or else adding plastic parts was logically impossible :grin:

question, do you plan to add maybe the steered dolly from Krone ? this way it would be possible to make a 25.25m version, i have a model of one but it is so detail poor i dont really want to use it after i saw your chassis work and i cant find good material to recreate it with my limited skills

The Krone Swapbody Trailer for 2 Boxes where be nice. But for the Dolly you need a low cupling System. The Standart Coupling is longer than 25.25m. I hat seen one Time such a combo of Hermes Logistics at Friedewald, wo had carried 3 Boxes on the Combo. One on the Truck and two on the Trailer


Edit.. Here is a link of this combo, bit it is a train of fliegl

I don't think I'll add the Krone Dolly or the Fliegl Swap Train because I would have to model low-hitch systems for each truck. In my opinion, SCS has to work on that a bit more... I hope they do so :(
I didn't even expect to get that far (two trailers, two swap bodies and two chassis) :shock:

I'll focus on new trucks first and that is going to take a while but I keep those suggestions in my mind for the future :D

the dolly i mean has a range from 300 up to 900mm for the hook, yours is somewhere around 823mm, so it would be possible, it may look kinda strange but is within Krones specs

https://www.krone-trailer.com/fileadmin ... eLZ_DE.pdf

just a though you dont have to do it, in the meantime i found a high details (a bit to high detail) rigid dolly model which is used for Farm Sim maybe i will be able to make it less poly bomb and use this instead even if it isnt the one needed for EU regulations or at least German ones :grin:

I think Sebastian will make it realistic. So is a hook from 900mm of an Dolly incorrect. The train will have with the high hook over 26m. 25.25 is the most regulary in Europe for this gigaliners. Nice will be when scs bring the Krone swap Liner. This Trailer is officiel listet as Lang LKW Typ 1 in Germany.

did you read the schematics of Krone ? if the hook point is behind the truck at 900mm hight it is half a meter shorter then when it is under the truck, there is no 26m, the dolly is made for under truck and behind truck towing to be inside the 25.25m, the Profiliner is even longer for a Gigaliner then the normal Profiliner we have ingame (13.6m VS 15m for the Gigaliner)

@xXCARL1992Xx The Krone Dolly would work with a high-hitch setup (Drawbar: 900 mm height and 3.500 mm length).
The Krone Dolly might be a thing in the future but as I want to model new truck chassis first and I do not have many pictures of the dolly (it was a pain to find enough pictures with the tandem already) I won't think about it soon, I am sorry for that.
