Must be a different trailer pack that is testing?

That your first ever mod? looks pretty sweet

Yep this is my first mod! I tried to get into it in FS15 but my old computer couldn't handle it.

I know there is another trailer back but its a flatbed or something.

Oops wrong trailer, the one in modhub now is also called smiths/smyths but is a bulk trailer

UPDATE: Added brake/turn lights, reflective lights, licence plates, and my logo. What do you guys think?

Looks pretty good! I have my license plate on my real life trailer's ramp also. Mine is one full ramp, lawn mower trailer.

Thanks My dad as a single ramp utility trailer too, ,and that's where the license plate is on that and I figured it'd be similar on a two ramp trailer.

Awesome man. I think the ramp license plate idea is a pretty good idea because if it were on the bottom, like most, it would get dented or would hit stuff on ground, etc.

i take it you made the plate yourself ?

The Smith Modding one, yes. The Georgia one, sorta. If you go online, the GA State government has examples of all of the available license plates.

I took the standard one and changed it to Harris County in paint.net, because that's where I'm from.

That's very true I've exported it to GE, but its only opening as a grey version as the one i have. There is also the non-binary triangles thing, and saving it in GE has not worked. How do I fix it?

That's the problem, I just checked and it doesn't. I successfully exported a cube with a texture, and I see it has a file entry, but the trailer does not.

Cube that I textured and exported

	<?xml version='1.0' encoding='iso-8859-1'?> <i3D name="cube.blend1" version="1.6" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="http://i3d.giants.ch/schema/i3d-1.6.xsd"> <Asset> <Export program="Blender" version="2.78.0" /> </Asset> <Files> <File fileId="1" filename="//black.dds" relativePath="true" /> </Files> <Materials> <Material ambientColor="1 1 1" cosPower="50" materialId="3" name="Material" specularColor="1.000000 1.000000 1.000000"> <Texture fileId="1" /> </Material> <Material ambientColor="1 1 1" diffuseColor="0.3 0.3 0.3 1" materialId="2" name="default" specularColor="0 0 0" /> </Materials> <Shapes>

Do I just copy what the cube has and add the wood, brake, and reflective lights to it?
