Complete pack of truck & trailer templates

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.

@seth_haveron If you're having trouble making a paintjob, I made a detailed walkthrough video showing how to make a paintjob mod from scratch, using a different program called Paintjob Packer.

Hi @Carsmaniac , having a slight issue with a SCS Box curtainsider side skirt (long). Can I clarify that your template for this accessory is the correct size or is this a mapping issue on SCS's part?

Thank you in advanced.

EDIT: Disregard ... there is a mapping issue which has been reported by mohegan. He also released a temporary fix :) See thread below.

Hello @Carsmaniac! I don't know if it is already answered but for the psd versions, are the templates already set to 4K or do we have to do it on our own? Thank you in advance.

Hello Carsmaniac,

Great template pack, it helped me a lot making my first truck skin mod.
However, you wrote you added the Mighty Griffin templates too, sadly I haven't found them yet in the directories.
What I really do need is the Thor stoneguard template for Scania R 2009, can you tell me where to find this specific one?

You also wrote in the txts that some of older trucks got problem with proper uv map (for sun visors and mirrors) and since I modding the Scania R 2009 I'm also suffering to make a basic sunshield mod.
Is it a core problem, i.e. SCS got to correct it or simply exporting problem, bug, etc?

Thanks in advance, and any help or hint about sunshield modding would be appreciated.

~Regards

@SchmidtFG Some of the Mighty Griffin parts are included in the main template (e.g. the paintable Front Mask), and some have their own separate templates (all of the parts in the Accessories folder are Mighty Griffin parts). As for the stoneguards, none of the MG stoneguards are paintable as they're all chrome, so they don't have templates. If you have a paintable Thor stoneguard, it might be added by a mod.

And you're correct about the sun visor, it doesn't have a proper UV map. To paint the sun visor (and main mirrors) on the R 2009, you need to paint the bottom left corner of the template. For example if your texture looks like this, the truck will look like this. There's no way to put a detailed design/logo/text on them, you can only make them a solid colour. This is because of the way SCS created the trucks, and there's no way to change it on a paint job, aside from using a mod that adds additional mirrors/sun visors. Some of the older models are lower quality, and since the R 2009 has been in the game since it launched, it unfortunately has this issue. You'll have to work around it by making a paint job with solid-coloured sun visors and mirrors.

Hope this helps!

@Carsmaniac: "As for the stoneguards, none of the MG stoneguards are paintable as they're all chrome, so they don't have templates."
Yes, I tried to modify an MG stoneguard now I know why there was no result... Is there any tutorial about creating solid painted stoneguards/sun visors? Got no luck on internet.

"There's no way to put a detailed design/logo/text on them"
This is exactly what I wanted to do. Again, now I know why there was no result...

One way or another, thank you very much for your reply and the details you shared, You already provided me more information in a second than the whole net in a week.

Best Regards
