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.

This is looking fantastic! These trucks are very common around me, mostly doing forestry and woodchip work. Looking forward to giving it a go and trying to replicate some of the trucks I actually see around here!

A severe case of the flu messed up my timeline a bit, but progress has been good. I will likely reach out to those of you who wanted to help beta test it in the coming week. Most of what I have left now is adding the final details to the flattop interior, a bit of overall fine tuning and some admin work with all the defs.

Some pics:

Redid the LED headlights from scratch. The old ones were one of the first things I made when I had no clue what I was doing, and as a result, sucked.

Someone asked earlier for a pic of a bone stock version -

As I said previously, the interior is already excellent quality. Only problem is the one sleeper that was built for this mod isn't an option (yet), the mid size stratosphere. This will have the flattop and 82' stratosphere starting out, so aside from building the two sleeper configurations and adding a bunch of small things like CB, I'm mainly adding trim levels and new panels.

By the way, does anyone know the slot hookups for the cabin accessories pack? Particularly the sleeper hookups for stickers etc.

Edit: Image embedding no longer works on this forum??

Great job Outlaw, hope you're feeling better. Btw are there different color options for the interior and seats? just a question.
I can help beta testing if you want, no problem.
