[zenith basin]

however i can recommend that you use paint job packer which has templates you can use for ATS and ETS2

and i think that's slightly more user-friendly

Funnily enough i did do that in the end, and none of the numbers showed up anywhere XD but where the centre of the door is it also is the top of the front wheel arches.

[left thorn]

try importing the truck and then exporting the UV map from it

[torpid spoke]

Question I made a cargo mod and tried making a .scs file for it and it didn't work the cargo never showed in game. How do I fix this??

[burnt bough]

very nice!

[torpid saddle]

yeah, that is very nice work

[velvet night]

How does promods canada work with TMP? Is it more or less just a mod-map expansion?

[hasty loom]

@velvet night: We support these mods in multiplayer:
ProMods Europe (with optional Middle-East Add-On Pack): https://truckersmp.com/kb/614. For ETS2 only.
Trailer & Company Pack addon is not supported.

ProMods Canada: https://truckersmp.com/kb/1122. For ATS only.

:cherry_blossom: Grimes' Spring Mod: https://truckersmp.com/kb/856. Both ETS2 and ATS are supported.

We do not support other mods and/or Steam Workshop items.

[velvet night]

I know, i saw the pinned comment but i guess i was looking for a tl;dr of how promods canada improves the game

[covert mango]

its just a map expansion adding a few cities in canada

[rancid ice]

is there anyone in here that is good with making skins

[charred parrot]

Correct. It's a free high quality map expansion into Canada. Promods has done a wonderful job to bring in beautiful areas to discover beyond the states. Definitely recommend.

[timid heath]

i live in the areas the mod covers and its honestly mind-blowing how they captured the style of the infrastructure and roads

really easy to imagine that every place you drive by could exist irl

[weak sigil]

any good mod recommendations to get more realistic graphics?

I have a question, i want to use a "custom" skin/mod on truckersmp, it doesn't change the truck itself just te paintjob. How would one do this? I've been struggling with it all night but can't seem to find anything helpful.

[patent stratus]

Jbx graphics but paid , or you could use a nvidia reshader

[burnt cedar]

Does anybody know where i can get a car hauler truck for ats? Ive been wanting one, and been looking around for a while

[ashen yacht]

i am mod the game

[feral jolt]

How what cars do I get to use them in TMP

[vague adder]

You can buy the Scout car at any truck dealership in-game

[feral jolt]

ok

[atomic tulip]

what mods do yall recommend

[candid fulcrum]

Not sure if this is the right place for this (or if there even is one) but does anyone know if a mod of Big Red exists anywhere? https://www.thedrive.com/news/35030/fords-giant-turbine-semi-truck-big-red-is-lost-somewhere-in-the-american-southeast

[trail remnant]

Do you just install promods into your game and they will work with MP?

[median jetty]

Promods doesnt work in tmp currently

[solemn hearth]

Hmmm....

Maybe one day.

[charred parrot]

It does for ATS

[solemn hearth]

How does it work? They're still in the process of making 1.2.0

[trail remnant]

Not sure but it works for ATS on TMP.

[charred parrot]

Idk but it does 😆

[candid fulcrum]

Possibly something to do with ATS not needing separate servers, idk if promods in ATS overlaps with base game like ETS2 either

[atomic tulip]

i wanna make a paint for my truck and trailer in ATS how do i got about that?

[woven girder]

This. Because there is no major change to ProMods areas of the map, it seems to still work. Whereas on ETS2, the ProMods map is affected.

[atomic tulip]

does anyone have a dry van template for ATS?

im lookin to make a skin

guess not

[deft plinth]

these are all the templates for ats, both trucks and trailers. https://forum.scssoft.com/viewtopic.php?f=199&t=288778

theyre the ones i use and very good quality

[atomic tulip]

My god trying to make a paint for a truck is hard I might give up cuz I have no idea what I’m doing

[deft plinth]

whats so hard about it? ill try to offer advise.

[tepid veldt]

hello all, i am willing to buy a engine for viper truck for american truck simulator specific engine this type Cummins VT903 with specific sound from smokey and the bandit kenworth truck

i have looked on steam, searched google but no luck, i found but the mod wont work 😦

[drowsy dagger]

.

[outer charm]

anyone know the name of this mod?

[deft plinth]

Yeah it's called private mod

[honest grove]

[outer charm]

I have something to share which i found

https://github.com/Koenvh1/ets2-local-radio

Its a plugin. Works with tmp. And what it does is it makes your radio work like an irl radio. Where it will switch to local stations for the state you are in. So when you enter a new state your radio will fade out of the previous station and load a station from the new country you are in. I thought I will share because it makes radio more fun and realistic 🙂

I know it says ets2 but it also is for ats

[vast canopy]

Can anyone make ATS Skins?

[median jetty]

Whatcha looking for?

[lime gazelle]

how long is it for reports to get looked at its been a day for me

[serene tendon]

@spark heart wanna convoy tonight,
ill send u my mods u send me urs

[spark heart]

I am busy today so maybe tomorrow could work?

[serene tendon]

oh yea fo sho

[solemn hearth]

...

I am personally offended by this mod.

[warm sandal]

has anyone ever used the coast to coast mod and midwest expansion that could help me

it crashes my game when I enable theem

[outer charm]

Most likely it is an issue with your load order.
If C2C and Midwest are all you're using, just put Midwest above C2C. If you are using any other maps... use this load order: https://forum.scssoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=292914

[warm sandal]

ok thank you

[vast canopy]

Can anyone make ATS Skins?

[feral willow]

https://www.facebook.com/masonsmods/ This guy's F350 is pretty nice

[gray sparrow]

does anyone know if there are any mods like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rl4J0RpWRE4&ab_channel=BorisGameX

all i could find was one that still works and it is ugly and doesn't respond to the throttle

[lime gazelle]

Any ats save edit discords?

[bitter holly]

It's not a mod, it's just effects and I don't think you will find such a mod...

[gray sparrow]

so its just added after the fact? like its edited in the vid?

ok

cuz i found one mod that makes it like a addon on your truck

just like you got your flags and all of that

but its just amoving smoke particle so it doesnt correspond to the throttle

[jagged gull]

can someone tell me how i should prioitize my mods?

[zenith basin]

A useful list that the promods team made

works 95% of the time

same across ATS and ETS2

[woven girder]

Could someone explain what stored map actions are?

Been working on save edit transferring map progress between profiles but I'm not quite sure what this does and if I need to transfer it

[jagged gull]

can someone show me how jbx graphics mod is suppose to be priotized

[spark kite]

Hello, I have a request, would someone take a picture of the map in ATS with all dlc + promod map? - Is the map big enough?

[open ridge]

discovered_items[x] - responsible for explored road segments and prefabs, as far as I know 🧐

[woven girder]

Ah, but that's discovered_items [x] not stored_map_action[x]: nameless

Great explanation, but not what I'm referring to! 😁

[obtuse stone]

Which truck is this?

[indigo magnet]

Looks like Kenworth

[knotty gazelle]

kenworth w900

[deft plinth]

scania

[cunning spire]

i thought map goes on top? plus i have a few mods that decide they arent gonna work unless they are near top

[zenith basin]

no this list has been proven to work

[cunning spire]

well probably with the maps but for instance, i have a light mod that wont work unless its near the top

[zenith basin]

what mod is that

[cunning spire]

led mega pack all trucks hatreyu edit, if its too low the lights on my truck dont work, but thats my experience

[cunning spire]

btw, would mods for real company logos go with the AI section?

even if its not for AI specifically, like buildings and stuff

[zenith basin]

skins

[cunning spire]

alr thanks for the help, Have a good one

[zenith basin]

you needa put that with tuning parts

[cunning spire]

yep i will, right now i have my own setup just using common sense and it works but i figured i would do it the "right way", plus this will make my life 10x easier

[zenith basin]

it's not "right" there's no "right way"

it's just recommended

cuz it has been tested by the promods map devs and it works

[cunning spire]

thats why i put in in air quotes

but yea thanks for the help

[zenith basin]

noprob

[cunning spire]

hey sorry to bother you lol but one more thing, i have 3 trucks from jon ruda, but the way his are setup is there are a bunch of different mods that are supposed to go together, so if i use the promods thing, then would i ignore the promods setup for those. ( pics just in case youve never messed with ruda mods )

[zenith basin]

does the mod author say it is compulsory to put it in this order?

if not, as long as you have all the required mod packages enabled there shouldn't be a problem with the promods recommended load order

[cunning spire]

ok

[cunning spire]

if i was a modder in ats.......i would def make fire trucks for fun.......imagine messing with a tiller in ats

[umbral crystal]

was curious to see how it'd look with the big truck wheels, gotta say, i honestly dont hate it

i would've done the dual rear wheels with the dually fenders but the fitment was whack as hell, they sat so far in the wheel and tire clipped through the bed

[solemn hearth]

A generic long-nose semi truck.
