WIP Beta released Gavril D15 2001 Restyle 1.3

I have a problem where this 2001 D15 keeps overheating and eventually blows up. I cannot find out how to solve this problem. Any help?

 

Which one?

And did you update and clear cache?

I reinstalled the mod like 4 times and cleared cache. It still overheats.It also doesn't matter which one I spawn. They all overheat.

Strange. I replaced all of the radiators in my configs here with the proper versions.

Maybe you have an older version overriding the newer one?

 

Good News!

The latest update includes a thumbnail generator app, so expect the crew cab update soon

 

wrinkle345 updated Gavril D15 2001 Restyle with a new update entry:

Crew Cab Update

So, what do you guys want to see next?

I have several plans for the next update;

• add the i6 diesel from the T-Series (or at lease a modded version of it) and use it to either replace the engines in the D35s, or make a new series of D45s to use it
  
• add in a v6 (probably based on the duratec) to replace the i6 in the standard "D15" config
  
• facelift the rearend/bumper to more curvy (maybe use the roamer's rear bumper)
• possibly new taillights (though i think the current ones are fine)
• fix the "Thunder"'s "curvy" bed to look more realistic
  Spoiler: pic

  
• (finally) stop being lazy and change the shape of the cab to not be weird
• new trim?
• fix all "attachments" (roof rack, camper shell, alt fuel tank) to fit properly
• reshape bed to fit properly (look at new thumbnails to see the horror)
• (finally) readd the medium/heavy mirrors from the H-Series

does anyone else have any other suggestions? I really still like this mod and will keep adding to it.

 

Make a Burnside version that is like the Lincoln Blackwood. I think that would be perfect. *prepares for the wave of people saying Burnside died in '84*
Edit: Wait a second, you are going to fit the T-Series I6 in that?!

 

I've seen crazier things put into the D-Series

But realistically, if it doesn't fit, I'll try to make it fit, and if that try looks dumb, then I'll make a custom engine that doesn't. I just figured using the T-Series engine would keep things slightly more cannon.But I don't mind using a custom engine either.

Either way, the engine will use the T-Series's sounds. Since it's easy to do so and we all love diesel sounds.

And I wouldn't mind making a super-duper luxury version that's a Burnside edition. We'll see.

 

Yes. I have an idea for fitting the T-Series engine. Maybe you could make an aftermarket version where the T-Series engine is in the bed, and straight-piped?

 

I think already done

But I do plan on making it as realistic as possible (thats my shtick)

 

Okay, then I have a suggestion. Turbocharged diesel V6, from Gavril's (unreleased in-game) EuroHauler EH-Series line of trucks. Produces about 300 horsepower and a lot of torque. How does that sound to you?

 

My curiosity is piqued.

Is there any info on it, or is it made up?

 

Made up

 

Okay, good. I thought I was missing out on new stuff.

I like the idea. Hopefully I can model it out (since that is the hardest part of engine making)

 

Engine info is probably available, as it is a common engine setup for European cab-over trucks.

 

The D45 Crew Cab Limited has no rear doors or roof. I looked in the parts selector and it has rear doors as an option but they don't appear. Not sure what the problem could be.

 

Clear the cache, if that doesn't work reinstall it. If it still doesn't work, then disable all mods but this one. Then you will know if it was a conflict.

 

Working on the engine now.
So far it's going to be a 7.1L Diesel V8, slightly less powerful than the mighty 7.3L Powerstroke



How does it look so far? I'm never good at turbochargers and such, but it seems okay.

 

I'd say it looks pretty realistic. One request though, could you make an aftermarket supercharger for it?
