Complete pack of truck & trailer templates

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.

tytytytyty!!!!!!!!!!! this should fix my issue. the templete in the OP doesnt allow me to open the accessory files to paint.

@vincent123456789016 TIP: When resizing and image, resize only one side, either length or height depending how it fits the application. not both and make sure your paint program says maintain aspect ratio.

The templates don’t seem to contain files for 2020 bumpers and the corner deflectors doesn’t generate in paint job packer so their is no TOBJ file to use to skin it. This is the end result when I attempt to skin the Cascadia. And I am using advanced skinning. Text appears on the corner deflectors and on the bumper.

I've just uploaded a new version of the modded template pack with more mods supported, taking the total to 47 truck and trailer mods (full list here). If you want to jump right into using their templates, they're all supported by Paint Job Packer in v1.9, which was just released, featuring cross-platform support, a new UI theme, localisation and more!.

Happy modding! :)

Was wondering if you had any for civilian AI traffic vehicles? I'd like to make some liveries for emergency vehicles and they'd be a great help, thanks.

That one may be hard for him to do. I worked with a few of those vehicles and the way SCS mapped them it is pretty much impossible to just skin them. I had to tear apart an ambulance and spend a week redoing the UV Mapping just to try to get it looking somewhat like a real world AMR from my hometown. In all of the AI packs out there with custom ambulances, etc. the modders also used custom models as well for just this reason. :(

Yeah, wish there was a way to preview the skins without having to fire up the game each time.

What I do is import the model into Blender and use that to paint. Literally it is the only way I can do it and keep some of my sanity LOL.
