I have been posting your work in progress on a fs page and there is a lot of people just as excited about your up coming mod to release as me

Is there a way to add a beacon to the top of the truck

Where I'm at on the service bed. Still in Blender but it's coming along. the Pack is Pending on modhub currently.
Not sure when the service bed will be finished. Still a lot of work to do. the lift itself is gonna be a pain to animate with xml. wish you could import animations into GE. Changing numbers, opening the game to check, and then redoing 100 times is tedious work.

You can import animations into GE but at the moment this can only be done using Maya

Just a tip also. When you are editing XML or even parts in GE then you do not need to exit the game to see you changes.

You have two options:
1. Sell the vehicle and buy it again. This will reload the XML file and all your new changes will be applied.
2. If you have the 'cheats' active then you can use the console command 'gsReloadVehicle' instead.

Thx that will come in handy. I have cheats active so I can see collisions.

The Dump bed and Water tank have beacons on them and I'll add one to the service bed. that's one thing I don't have to model the game comes with them. once I start in GE and the xml I just tell where I want it to show and the it will be there when the game renders it.

Oww OK. The 'cheats' I am talking about are different from the 'development controls' that you enable in the game.xml

The cheats I am talking about are basically an extra collection of console commands that can be used to test mods and maps along with an increased walking/running pace.

To activate them you need to start your game using an extra paramenter -cheats

On Steam version the easy way is to right click on Farming Simulator 2017 and select 'Properties', under the 'General' tab select 'SET LAUNCH OPTIONS' and add the following

Code: Select all

-cheats 

If you have a non Steam version then you will need to navigate to your install folder and open the 'FarmingSimulator2017.xml'
In here you need to add

Code: Select all

 -cheats 

after 'exe' making sure you have a space

Example: FarmingSimulator2017Game.exe -cheats

Save the XML and start the game.

If you want to know what console commands you have with or without the -cheats parramater active just type 'help' in the console.

There are so many ways to make the modding a little easier and these are a good start.
I have made many more commands for personal / team use and public release addon scripts for GE that make the whole experience easier.

Awesome I can't wait! Farming simulator has needed a truck like yours

[redglasses]

That service bed is looking great, cant wait to use it in game

[ClassicTractors]

Looks awesome! I've been looking for a nice flatbed pickup. Can't wait to pull my PJ trailers with it!

Sounds like alot of work before fs19 comes out

Where I'm running into issues with the Combine hauler is that none of the harvesters actually have visible wheels in the editor. I need and exact match up to work with in blender so it sets nicely. gonna have to export the wheels separate and just wing it. good thing is all the harvesters are basically the same with the wheel base. should work with the front end loaders as well.
