And now to respond to all the messages over the past few months:
@ericd22b If you downloaded the "Windows with included templates" version, if you tick the "Use templates instead of empty placeholders" checkbox when making your mod, you should get templates. If not, you can simply resize the empty white squares you get instead and drop the templates on top, just make sure to resize the textures to a power of 2 (2048, 4096, 8192 etc). For truck textures, I use 4096x4096, which is also the resolution of all the templates in my pack. Hope this helps!
@Polomrtvola This is a bit tricky to diagnose, I only have one Mac I can test on and it works for me. See if 1.9.2 works (it works on Big Sur and Monterey for me), just keep in mind that the first time you launch it it'll disappear from your dock then reappear and launch a short while later, almost 10 seconds on my test computer. If that doesn't work, I could walk you through running the source code using Python 3. Let me know how you go!
@anaxiis Thanks for the heads up! With so many mods supported it's impossible to keep up with the updates for them all. I've added all the new parts I could find, as well as the new XL cabin. The custom lightbar textures aren't actually part of the paint job, but are instead a different texture you can replace yourself. A few mods do this for custom light boxes/window decals/number plates, because it's more straightforward than making a paint job by yourself, but if you are making a custom paint job it's a bit annoying as they're completely separate.
@FatGit It looks like it's working for me, the cabin templates show up and many of the accessories don't have templates included (bumper, corner deflectors, sun visor and fuel tank sideskirts) since you'd probably only want to re-colour them, although they are included in my template pack and you can use them if you want to. Would you be able to take a screenshot of the issue you're running into?
@OMNI I had no idea the drop deck trailers had sliding tarp bodies, I missed it in the announcement blog post and didn't check in-game, thanks for letting me know! I've added them to Paint Job Packer and my template pack, you should be able to make paint jobs for them now :)
@Muha10 This turned out to be a limitation of the model. The Schwarzmüller trailers are a little munted, with some of the UV maps being unusable or non-existent. The sideskirt rails (and chassis) of the Food Tank was one such example - because of how SCS made the models, they are not affected by any textures you apply. As a workaround, if you make a Schwarzmüller Food Tank paint job it will now have a colour picker which will affect the otherwise unpaintable parts. It's an inelegant solution, making use of a workaround that only exists because of bus mods, but it works for now :)
@Trenero No worries! You can't remove the "Hi-Way" lettering without some sort of truck mod, since it's baked into the model itself, unfortunately paint jobs can't affect it. If you have the FH Tuning Pack DLC, there is an option (for both FHs) for the lightbox to use the paint job texture instead of saying "Globetrotter" or anything like that.
@Drayton359 Not a stupid question! If you downloaded the "Windows with included templates" version then they should be installed already. If not, you can either go back and download that version, or download my template packs off the forums instead. If you do the latter, you can just resize the 16x16 white squares that Paint Job Packer generates for each of the DDSes, and drop the templates on top. Just make sure to keep the image width & height as a power of 2 (2048, 4096, 8192 etc), I use 4096 myself, and that's the size of the templates too.
@Flyboy01420 Did you work out the trailer template size issue with the Box Trailer and Flatbed? As far as I know all of the templates in Paint Job Packer and the template pack itself are powers of two, but let me know if you find any that aren't!
@Tuxinator If you have a hex editing program (I use one called HxD) you can edit a .tobj to change the path it points to, you just need to make sure you change one extra byte that relates to the length of the new path. I explained it in detail in an earlier post, scroll down to the paragraph starting with "Open the new .tobj file in a hex editor"
