MTL Trucks Improvements Pack [Add-On / Replace | DLS] 3.0
Model names:
Packer – packer
Rollback Flatbed – flatbed
Pounder Flatbed – pounder
Wrecker – towtruck3
Update log:
First of all, version 3.0 brings reworked lighting setup and adds full support for upcoming Dynamic Lighting System mod by TheMaybeast.
With DLS you can switch between 3 lights modes on Wrecker and Rollback Flatbed, use traffic advisor and floodlights independently – similar functionality to well-known ELS, but updated for current modding quality standarts with full use of new possibilities we as a community have discovered since 2017.
Other updates:
– Removed car generators and scenarios, I couldn’t make them work in dlcpack without overcomplicating the already troublesome installation, and they didn’t work in 2.2 anyway.
– Updated naming: Flatbed is now Rollback Flatbed, Pounder is Pounder Flatbed. Some modkit parts were also renamed
– Updated emergency lights texture with a cleaner one by Jacobmaate
– Improved vertex paint on all models – chrome should not be blindingly shiny anymore, was especially noticeable for VisualV/VisualVanilla users
– Improved and fixed some liveries, optimized file structure – at distance vehicles will use up to twice less video memory for textures, at cost of mere 3 megabytes mod size increase
– Improved textures and fixed few modeling issues with Packer sleeper interior, fixed gaps
– Improved panel gaps on all trucks
– Added optional versions of Flatbed and Wrecker with same wheels as on Pounder Flatbed
– Added basic liveries, improved spawn colors of Pounder Flatbed
– Added more details to large Packer bullbar
– Added options to remove rear fenders, roof fairing and visors
– Added back ‘classic’ rear view mirrors as modkit options
– Added underside crates and optional fourth axle to Pounder Flatbed
– Added interior extras to all vehicles: cupholders and tablet displays to all trucks, various props and antennas to Packer
– Added painted trim option to Packer
– Added lighting equipment to Flatbed
– Added extra brakelights to Wrecker, changed its taillights layout a bit
– Added few new and rearranged some existing extras on all trucks
– Fixed and smoothed normals all over Packers bodyshell – sleeper corners, hood curves, bumper trims; most misplaced normals and weird reflections were fixed
– Fixed natural spawning of interior colors on Packer, now it can appear in multiple colors as was intended originally, not just black
– Fixed front right turn signal, a tiny typo in model configuration have broken it on all four trucks
– Fixed wrong texture assigned to some modkit front fenders
– Fixed misplaced hood rotation axes
– Fixed asymmetrical wheel collisions, improved rear wheels tire width
– Fixed incorrect collision materials on bonnet and front right fender of all trucks, bumper of Pounder Flatbed
– Fixed multiple cargo collisions on Pounder Flatbed
– Fixed few materials order issues: inner glass layer, dashboard dials and stitch weren’t not visible through windows on some trucks
– Fixed small gap in Flatbeds ramp
– Fixed two floating polygons on Flatbeds and Wreckers roof, behind the sun visor
– Fixed some mesh clipping and removed few leftover pieces on lower LODs
Known issues:
– Rollback Flatbed and Wrecker are labeled as ‘Emergency’ in vehicle class, that was done for compatibility with DLS.
– Foldable tow bar on Wrecker is in fact useless – rough GTA collisions interaction physics make it very tricky to work with and likely to cause severe damage to both the towtruck and towed vehicle. It’s left working for immersion purposes and roleplayers, but don’t expect it to behave.
