Any chance to have them for the DAF XG-XG+ in the future? It doesn't seem that SCS wants to add any bullbars to it...

The developers gave us a dream and the opportunity to drive a car on highways. They are working on updates and new DLS.
It will take time and patience! Believe me, they have grandiose plans for updating the game!

The mod maker hasn't been on the site since October, so I think an update is unlikely.

The last update of this mod on the workshop was last December, for version compatibility. It is better to wait for their WIPs.

Aside from the author of the mod having not been online in ages, there are two additional problems.NemesysTrans wrote: ↑26 Jan 2022 00:41 Any chance to have them for the DAF XG-XG+ in the future? It doesn't seem that SCS wants to add any bullbars to it...
One - the current truck model doesn't actually have attachment nodes for bullbars or roof bars. It has them for low-bars/bumper protectors and side bars/sideskirt protection, but you literally can't put a bullbar or roofbar on the truck right now without adding your own nodes and redistributing the thing. This is basically the sort of thing that requires waiting for Schumi or someone to do a "rework" mod that adds the missing nodes.
Two - the only vendor which officially has roofbar that fits the DAF 2021 is, ironically, DAF themselves, and there aren't any bullbars available yet. Neither Kelsa, HS-Schoch or Trux have any products for the DAF 2021 whatsoever, though the Kelsa "bullbars" should really only need new mounting hardware, since they're IIRC otherwise the same for all trucks.
So yeah, the lack of stuff for the DAF 2021 is a bit of a pain, but it's a realistic pain right now...

Thanks for the clarifications, @Winchester1979 . I thought there were no nodes for bullbars and that would require a mod to modify the truck's model to add them. I wish I was more proficient in Blender. I like the DAF XG but it's lacking a lot of accessories...

That's basically exactly right - all the truck needs is an f_grill locator on the chassis, and an r_grill locator on each cab. I could do that, but I'd be stuck keeping the thing up to date. Also, I have a few more things I'd like to do while I was at it, like splitting off the skylight frames into their own part so I could make painted frames a thing. The problem is, the slightest change to the model on SCS' part, and I'd have to remake the thing, and everything made for my version would need to be redone too..NemesysTrans wrote: ↑03 Feb 2022 14:35 Thanks for the clarifications, @Winchester1979 .

It's a shame because the truck is otherwise pretty fully featured with locators for all sorts of things even when there's only one option to pick (like the headlights, top and bottom grille, or the rear fenders), which makes it easy to add alternatives (like painted fenders and plastic grilles).
