Digital X,

As far as the dashboard icons concerned problem is still there, strange is that if you look from outside (key 2) i could see alarm flashers on 4 corners and regular L & R blinkers are working.
Only the icons on the dashboard are not visible?.
The red icon for handbrake is also missing, as is for the lights, standard and (blue) high beam, and last, icon for cruise control is also not visible.

For your info, i have in the configurator selected a different dashboard and steeringwheel (unique 900).
I also changed the position of the steeringwheel and seats some what.
Field of view for mirrors is now 80.

Thanks.

Digital X,

Some additional info, dashboard is not "unique 900" but luxurious or elegant 900 the ones with the wooden stripes in it steeringwheel is also not the basic one.

I also have that brownish middle centre with digital info(s) set to show fuel levels in a bar?.

When i peeked into the youtube clip you made i also noted that there where no icons on the dashboard for handbrake?.
could not tell if light where on?.

Thanks.

@Dutch TukTuk

Does yours look like this?

Handbrake on, hazard lights on, high beams on.

Hello Digital x,

Gauges for rpm, speed look ok, but not so bright as in your picture.

I discovered that blinkers for the alarm light are very vague or dimmed.
Even when using interior zoom i could hardly see them.

Light for parkingbrake and high beam i can't see. light for driving light (the green one below speedometer) is same as lights for flashers or blinkers very vague

In the attachments you will find 3 screenshots i took today.

Hope it helps you to solve the issue, as far as driving concerned no problem, no crashes.
And i solved my engine sounds problem by replacing volvo_vnl.bank files!.

Thanks.

Wasn't aware of sound bank problems. It uses the base game vnl or should do.

I'll look into increasing the brightness of those.

Digital X,

Some additional info,

Situation improves drastic when you drive in evening or night situations.
Then it starts to look as on your picture?.

Is the problem all due top the new lighting system that SCS put in? ?.

It may be partially down to that. I know exactly what you mean with the lights being nearly invisible during the day. I'll open up this truck and an SCS truck in Blender and compare the two and see if there's something in there that needs fixing.

Hello Digital X,

Any progress made on the dashboard for the vnl? ?.

I don't know if that is possible at all, making the dashboard that shows in evening, night view(s) available for daylight too? ?.
Or is this causing new problems? ?.

Thanks and have a nice weekend.

No sorry I don't know what's causing it. I thought it might be down to the luminance settings for Day and Night but that apparently doesn't work.

I'll take another look later.

@Dutch TukTuk Just to let you know I may be able to resolve the dashboard illumination, is indeed something to do with the luminance values when I asked around.

I think you should add a link to the Steering Creation DLC addon to the first post
