[DISC] Volvo VNL 2018 fix

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.

Remember asking about the voltage showing 27.4 volts? That was Tom's addon, I added voltage to his chassis defs, and now it shows voltage properly. Still can't figure out how to get the bar to show in the middle instead of max, for the voltage.

The bar doesn't work currently, because there is no ID for it, yet

Huh, guess SCS forgot to add that ID when creating the one for voltage.

Can someone please advise me on what I have to install in order to get the bumper lights and side skirt lights to work? Is it a light pack of some sort? Thank you...:)

Yeah, its some sort of light pack, but you'll need to manually add the locator names to the defs

@Blackspots ok, thank you for the response back...:)

@galimim as I slowly try out different trucks that are available here, I have noticed an improvement in your modding skills. I tired this truck since I wanted to do a skin for a local trucking company near me, and was very pleasantly surprised at how well it is done, great job!

@Blackspots actually the truck is setup to use the Boreman Light pack. Just had to add the light pack and now have light choices. Didn't know this, and it isn't listed as a truck that can use it on the Boreman mod page in steam. Any how, it works....:)

@galimim Thanks for the fix! I think this truck is much nicer than the SCS Mack Anthem. The main mirrors are positioned where you can see them, the slope of the engine cover/bonnet is correct so the hood mirrors are at the correct height and don't look like a praying mantice neck and head sticking way up in the air. The Xenon lights project far and bright enough so you can see turns and signs in time to react. The engine sound is just loud enough to give you feedback for shifting. Good selection of transmissions and other accessories like the Cummins emblem, clean idle sticker D.O.T plackard etc. make this a great package. The only thing I added was a cabin light via the beacon hookup. Not sure why more players aren't driving this truck.

Hey @galimim,
        I want to let you know that the mirror antenna is in the wrong location on your Volvo VNL. The antenna is suppose to be located on top of the mirror, not the bracket. I tried to find a node in zmodeler 3 to find the correct location of the antenna to move it from the bracket to the mirror but I was unsuccessful. If you can, can you move it to the correct location on your next update?

Here are the examples of where the antenna is suppose to be located.
