how to convert trucks?

Post by Paulo.Simu »

Hello everyone, I'm new here, wanted to convert some trucks from ETS2 (EuroTruckSimulation2) or ETS UK to locomotion, how can I do that ??
I know there is such a tool, like MSTS2loco, but I think it only converts files related to MSTS. Can someone help me?? Thanks in advance.

Hello Walter1940, I am using the MSTS converter. However, I have a question, how can I increase the picture ?? I know it is currently 160x160, but, I wanted to convert a wagon that exceeds this limit, how can increase that rate?

Why do you want to have the pictures bigger?
You can zoom them in individually with any graphic program. But then the vehicles are pixelated and ugly. With the converter only images in size 160x160 work. This is sufficient also completely .... actually. :roll:

I wanted the screen limit to be greater than 160 x 160, because the file I wanted to edit exceeds this limit.

OK.
Short answer: It is not possible. Otherwise, your vehicle will be pixelated and ugly.

Incidentally, I'm not clear what you have for a vehicle that is longer. And you must not forget that with too long vehicles always something in the game is cut off.

It's best to take a screenshot of the vehicle and send it to me. Then I can try to help you.


EDIT

I just noticed that I mistakenly had the shrink of models on a page which was not publicly visible.
Here is a guide to shortening of vehicles.

I hope that helps you now.

But do not try the method described above to make new vehicles with Photoshop. The necessary actions only work with a german version of Photoshop !!!

No, that's not possible. Unfortunately, there is no converter from Railworks to Locomotion. :roll:
