BDF Tandem Truck Pack v149.00 (11 November 23)

Forum rules
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.

Flemming V I want to thank you sincerely for this amazing mod! I have only been involved in ETS2 for a few months, but this mod is by far the source of most of my enjoyment. I play with a vanilla economy and with about 50 drivers, i cannot spend my income and I have lost count of the number of trucks and trailers I have bought and sold, but I always come back to my original BDF Tandem DAF and drive it time and time again. I drive an 8x4 truck with a 2x3 trailer and I truly enjoy the concentration required to keep the trailer wheels where they should be - I can take nothing for granted and have to think my way around every corner and through every intersection. Conversely, when my grandson insists on having a go, we build a 4x2 truck with a 'no trailer' trailer and let him trundle around in a very easy to control truck.
I have tried other rigid mods, and although some of them offer more options and greater detail the utter simplicity of your mod is truly amazing - it accomplishes so much with so little effort from the users point of view. If I coild paint the trailer mudguards/fenders without creating a skin it would be perfect, so I am afraid I can only score it at 9.95! Seriously though - this mod truly proves the old addage that less is more! I love it. Thankyou!
All these years and still on my bum in a puddle, scratching in the dirt....

@Flemming V have you sorted the missing air bar and the cooler shadow that still remains?

Hello, I've created my own skin for this mod, but for some reason, the profiliner versions always have white roof and white front (on both truck and trailer, picture: https://i.imgur.com/550Adc3.png), from what I understand, custom skin doesn't apply to those parts, but I can't figure out which other textures I have to edit, so that they are also colored. Does anybody know which textures specifically are responsible for that white color?

I tried downloading some other skins, same situation, so it has to do something with original textures in the mod itself I guess?

White front is taken from vehicle/trailer_owned/tandem/profiliner/textures/profi_liner.dds

and white roof is taken from vehicle/trailer_owned/dolly/profiliner/textures/profi_liner.dds

So you need to make 2 new folders in your own mod like this:

1. vehicle/trailer_owned/tandem/profiliner/textures/
2. vehicle/trailer_owned/dolly/profiliner/textures/

Take profi_liner.dds from my mod here: vehicle/trailer_owned/tandem/profiliner/textures/profi_liner.dds, draw your front and save it in your new folder 1.
then take profi_liner.dds from my mod here: vehicle/trailer_owned/dolly/profiliner/textures/profi_liner.dds, draw your roof and save it in your new folder 2.

As I understand, 6 hauls of 7 can be with any type of cargo to Hamburg, which mean you can use my mod on those,
the 7. Haul has to be with a truck that can attach/haul an ordinary Krone trailer, from the Krone Factory in Werlte.
