mayday i would like to make a request i love your new trucks and would like some different trucks from earlier periods so would you like to try something like this
These trucks often towed a 4 wheel trailer, if u added a bulk body and a box body, you could have all load types with 3 trucks and maybe 3 trailers.
Trucks like this were mainly used in the 1950s and 60s had a maximum weight of 32 tons with trailer and load.
If u had 120bhp engine you were "
king of the road"
If you feel like trying it and want more infomation let me know and i will do what i can
If you don't then no problem you have already improved my games so much
just let me know if you dont want to do them and i will put up a request in the main section thanks
a few more picks
A very nice flat bed
only a 4 wheeler but shows a sheeted load (for goods etc maybe)

Sorry had to add these leyland trucks from the around the same time.
Both show roped and sheeted loads with the trailers like i mentioned.
I would love to have something like this in the game

i collect model trucks mostly heavy haulege they look great but as they are 1:50th scale they take A LOT of room
I need 2 add more pictures i forgot all about tankers although this 1 carries cider not oil
This is just what i was looking for
most of these pics are from

What about American trucks?
Posted: 09 Mar 2006 19:58
by Hobgoblin
whilst american trucks would be cool you would probably be looking at another tractor unit for the trailers already here but by adding some older trucks we could have better looking trucks earlyer in the game
That said.
Why not look for some 1940s american tucks?
although the earliest truck in the game is so small you couldn't tell if u did mod it
There is still room for improvement with the second set of trucks mayday may not want to do more trucks but it may be worth asking
.A 1940s conventional (peterbilt maybe) with twin stacks would look very cool
this one is a little later but very similar and has the twin stacks
Found in less than a minute, google is cool
looks great but doin a delivery in London would be a nightmare.
Still, being able to cook a meal and maybe play on your PC before getting into your superwide bunk all without leaving your truck would make it worth it.
here we go not sure but this is 50s at least and maybe 40s peterbilt

cool trucks why won't they work?
oh hang on i know nothing about modding except how to add them and a little bit about using wrapper and frontend, so why did i ask i will not understand the answer
ok new question any chance of you making them work or are you stuck?
hope u solve any problems you have all trucks welcome to join the artics dhl coca-cola and other trucks found on here and fanpage
I am getting forgetfull again but are some of those yours?
I do have some of your mods on my game i just forget wich ones
sorry.

AFAIK the cola- and the dhl-actros are made by me, yes
though there are other ones by me. such as the vario, the Regioshuttle-pack, the MAN-(artic)busses, the IKARUS-(artic)busses, the TRAM5, the busstation, the BR477 metro..
the us-truck has a graphic-issue so i can´t release it yet. gonna fix this. sooner or later

yeah i have the dhl and coca-cola trucks and the ikarus buses. Look great in the game i love train building but i love using the trucks even more when they look that good i dont think i have the vario but i have over 850 vehicles in the game so it is hard to know for sure
Look forward to seeing the US truck once its done
Also is it possible to make your trucks compatable with maydays?
so i could pull maydays traiers with your truck or visa versa.
or having the origional trucks pull your DHL trailer for example.
Probably not but if it is possible it would be cool.

i think, i make this 2 here the weekend

yes go on, mayday. so i can stop my project.
@hobgoblin
it could be done..
problem is..: there's a new truck coming everyday from mayday so i can't keep up the compatibiliy-list. you have to make that on your own. there are other projects in my list as well.
furthermore in the next weeks i have another project (a new homepage for the company i work for) launched.
there's a slight chance that i stop all projects once i start the homepage. could be a couple of months..

How do they look on the slopes / steep slopes?
Because judging the dark sides you are using the VC to make the .png files; and they dont have the steep slopes sprites.

they dig into the hill.
they have the same issues as if you did a tram or narrow guage in MSTS2Lomo. even the regular hills have the lean.
