ive tried downloading the Realistic Physics Mod and it says Unzip the .scs archives into your "My Documents\Euro Truck Simulator 2\mod" folder but the download doesnt have any scs files in it, all it have is a folder saying Def/vehicle/truck and then the truck names any ideas?

Choose the right version of the mod. You just copy over the scs archive to the mods folder.


I've just figured out some mod conflicts and revised my load order, hope that helps someone:

Nice photos scousegit!

I might try the hard economics Krugga , should make you be more thoughtful about the business.


Tibbz, if you download this mod http://www.ets2-mods.com/skins/170-euro-truck-simulator-2-mods-trailer-skin-pack-download#comments you could use one of them to base your own design on, it will show you the rough sizes you need.

If you look a few pages back vorhees made a nice post with a link for a photoshop plugin as you need to save the skins as dds.

I'll post my skin in a sec and you can see the sizes and where each part of the trailer is.

So you can see my skin and how it sits in game.


It's a bit of an arse fine tuning as you have to keep coming out of game for every change.

must be doing something wrong then because none of the downloads end up having a .scs file in it :confused:

Just tried it myself and they are all .scs files! Don't forget to wait for the "Please wait" top right and click skip, god knows what you're getting if you click the wrong link. They use some wonderful file hosting sites on that forum...
 
Hmmm strange, does give you the areas though, easier to just make your own then add to one, 1024 x 512 pixels, top 3rd for trailer sides, bottom left square for trailer rear, that block of grey area is the bit of metal between the sets of wheels, I've not worked out what the bottom right area is, I though it might be the roof but not the case in my experience.

Ok thanks, i'll just use that blank space for some fun and see where it ends up!
 
I think it may be for a different type of trailer, because I've actually seen my design on a liquid hauling trailer even though I thought I was only modding standard trailers.

Actually also one other trailer too, standard trailer but without back doors, and few other differences like no metal between wheels, thicker metal structural parts.

Seems the mods paste the design over quite a few different trailers that each company runs.

Hm... I can't convert my .zip back into an scs file :o
 
just save as a zip in store mode then rename to .scs or just drop your files into original scs and remove the design your want to take the place of.

Next trick is spawning with the trailer you made ;)
