I want to clarify that this mod is on hold until I have motivation to return to it - Very soon I'll probably have even less time to work on things, and I'm working on other projects yet to be revealed. The tandem axles are work in progress, they didn't get done in time for the main release and haven't been returned to since
Read message above, I had a work bed planned with a gooseneck hitch but both got delayed due to reasons. If I ever revisit this mod then they will be added, currently modeling professionally and working on other models that will hopefully see the light of Gridmap sometime
The mod is now marked "On Hold" to better reflect the lack of progress. It is also partially incompatible due to having the outdated fifth wheel option, but I didn't want to mark it outdated as most of the mod is still functional. I unfortunately don't have any plans (or time really) to update it but if anyone swaps the new fifth wheel over, I'm happy to post it as a compatibility update
Yeah, so uh update 0.31 completely changed some things like the vanilla fifth-wheel trailer connections... Hopefully, it still works. They also added Jake Brakes if you wanted to add them.
I'm aware what the update added which is why I made the announcement. Outdated fifth wheels do not work with the new system
I would help but I have 0 modding experience. Hopefully (if you choose to) these new 5th wheels are not too hard to implement. This update did add some interesting opportunities for the truck though. Adjustable 5th wheels, and trailer brake systems could lead to much better trailer usage than ever before for this truck.
I'm... perfectly aware of the new features and the (non) difficulty of carrying over the fifth wheel. I would update it if I still had interest and time in maintaining this mod but I simply don't.
Please carry over the fifth wheel. Just this one simple thing will make it work again, then you can leave it alone forever.
That's not as "simple" as it sounds, it could require a rework of the entire mod to restore functionality. It's been made clear there is no motivation to continue this project as of now.
Obviously hinting that Ren doesn't want to even look into it. I'm 100000% sure your insistence is falling on deaf ears.
I'm just gonna be spilling my ideas here though it's more of a suggestion so I'm very sorry that I disobeyed the very obvious warning; The new Demountable Rims with the T-Series would be very fitting for the Durham A gooseneck hitch for obviously the previously added Gooseneck trailers from 0.30 (which a lot of people already has suggested before) The newly added Cargo boxes for the campaign Dynamic Mirrors A shorter dumper bed (frequently suggested as well but I'll just repeat it) and the remastered upfits from the T-Series (Flatbed, Box & Rollback bed[Maybe]) That is all, I'm fully aware that its a lot to ask for of course although I'm just spilling my ideas or expectation for the upcoming update is all. My apologies if the author and everybody else finds this really annoying, do excuse me and I'm sorry.
You can be sure that I'm aware and have thought about everything you said and dozens of other things that would fill out this entire page if I were to list down, which is also the reason I did not want any suggestions as I'd most likely be aware of everything that's doable and possible. So far, I've only gotten one suggestion on this thread that I did not know was a thing. You can also be sure there's no upcoming update as I'm simply not motivated to work on this product, the jbeam is old and outdated and most of all just not good, the cab is outdated and most models that weren't entirely scratch made are a total hackjob which I'm not proud of at all. Besides simply not having time or motivation for this, I would also rather work on different mods and models which I am occasionally doing as I find time, I hope at least some of those things will be made into actual mods one day.
