Great effort guys, yes it it slow to load, and yes there are empty trailers but that's fine. One concern which has already been mentioned above is some trailers - particularly blue container trailer with no tail lights. Scary when you roar up to it in the dead of night

Drive Safely wrote:@KubaJam - the trailer skins are awesome but they don't have to have 4k resolution.

For example, a standard SCS box trailer skin is 1024 pixels wide by 512 pixels high.

If you double that you get 2048 pixels wide by 1024 pixels high. That's high quality already and a good quality size for the trailer skins.

But when you have 4k textures (where the skin is over 4000 pixels wide), that means a significantly larger file size and significantly larger load times considering there are 200 of them to load in the pack. The computers of today (even those built for gaming) can't process a batch of 4k images very fast.

I want to be able to click on ETS2 on my Desktop and see the screen pop up instantly and not have to wait for a minute for the screen to pop up as if it's not responding.

I'm sure the team will be able to cut down the file size by 50% with hardly any visible drop in quality.
Well said, I completely agree. An alternative would be to give us two options, high-res and ultra-res or something?

I agree - in fact, the resolution texture is very too large.
Trailer package should only update the texture.
DDS files with a size 10.6 MB :shock: - this unnecessary madness :o
A well-made model does not need nearly as large textures.
I think that this has not been well thought out by the author.
The more that the package of semi-trailers to be used with a large map ProMods.

Great work from you guys 8-) I'm using it without problems : no empty trailers for me, loading time is a little longer but nothing really bad, textures are great, I'm really happy with this pack. :)
Only thing, being based in Inverness and having OBI or Sitra looks a bit weird, but it was weird anyway whatever the pack I used. ;)

The mod looks amazing but the game loads a bit slower. I also see trucks wuth empty trailers and they also don't have lights so this doesn't seem right. And i rarely see a completely red trailer and on the side it says texture with an arrow beneath it for the rest it is an amazing mod that definitly makes the game more realistic

This pack is already hi res, so which resolution would be ultra res?

And btw. im fine with the size of the textures and have no problem with such stuff (as i mostly use 4xxx for my own skins too) as long as the performance ingame is not significant worse by it.

Your mod is awesome , great work guys.

As rowinpuch , i was not able to see trailers from the mod , already had in the past some issue with the mod from Jazzycat" Trailer and cargo pack" , so no more trucks pulling empty trailers or only trucks without any trailer behind.


Thanks and keep the work!!

The current res (4k) would be ultra-res, high-res would be 2048 or something.
