ETS2 Studio [v0.7.0.1 > 10.01.2016]

You could integrate the nvidia DDS utilities

I've made some private tools that speed up our modding work and use this library to read a PNG and export it straight into DDS DXT5

Code: Select all

Currently, I'm working on a different solution. Well, If it doesn't work, I'll go this way
Thanks for the info!

Hi! Check your private messages.


...

Unfortunately, I wanted to publish as many features as possible in the shortest possible time. That means that I spent very little time testing ETS2 Studio.
And that's not good. Sorry. The next update is planned to be released a day or two after the new SCS patch. (I have to include the new Volvo in the skin maker tool.) I hope I'll kill most of the bugs until then. At least the big ones.

Hi WerewolfCustoms

This is a great piece of software that you have created and i will certainly be keeping an eye on this thread to see what updates come to this.

Obviously as you can guess there is a lot that i would like to see added to this and i am sure that you will add a lot. But one thing i would love to see added would be the option to preview your skin on the truck as it would appear in-game so that you dont have to load the game to test the skin that you are creating. I imagine that this feature will require a lot of work and probably won't happen for some time but if you can add it that would be great.

In the meantime though this piece of software is awesome Great Job on it

Hi!

I'm thinking about the live preview function...
I can't promise anything, but I'm almost certain that it could be done. Well, at least to some extent.
I'll look into it.

Well, this feature could probably see the light of day in version 0.8 or something like that

Thank you for your comment!

This the crazy idea for future versions (check attached screens)….but someone from SCS have to come and explain all future/setting of “road.look.sii” files in details. I also like them to integrate “noise” future for roads. We have this future for terrain. I aware that AI cars will not care for road condition… and thats fine. Just make it work for player. Perfect roads become boring overtime

@akm74:

I love the idea, and the way you presented it with screenshots.

I could make this kind of tool, but I need to see the road look system in action before I start working on it.
I searched trough game Base and Def archives, but I couldn't find any road.look files. Could you tell me where they are?
If there's no such files already in the game, then I can't make a tool that generates this kind of files. Sorry.

[ohaha]

The looks are in the geometrical models, I think...
I might be wrong, though.

[WerewolfCustoms]

@ohaha - Yes, it could be that. Similar to truck/trailer models. Let's wait a bit, maybe @akm74 ecaucan provide some more info.


On the other hand,
I just released an updated version (0.4.2) of ETS2 Studio.
It was mostly because of bugs, but I added a nice feature: ETS2 Studio now accepts PNG images for skins and workshop icons.

I could add support for more image files, but I'll wait to see what people want/need.

Yes, it could be that. Similar to truck/trailer models.

I'm thinking that roads - including terrain - are the only type of 3D-object (based on a mesh) in the game that doesn't come with a PMD/PMG representation.

In my view, each road type is established by a kind of "dynamic" mesh that is created by the engine, on runtime, depending on the data in "road.look.sii". Which is good, as it is more flexible than to create a base 3D-model with an editor, for each road type. And you can apply any available material, no preset definition list of materials necessary, like in a PMD.
