Paccar Drivetrains (economic semi-auto shifting)

ONLY FOR VANILLA TRUCKS

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Exclusive:
Dashboard rattling (engine vibration resonance) noise around shifting points under load (@ 800/1550 rpm)

I haven't seen any mods doing this, so tell me what could be better. .
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    You all eco-drivers please tell me what you think about the semi-auto shifting. Set options to true automatic and eco mode.
    Please rate this Mod if you'd like others to find it more easy.

This Mod adds two modded Paccar engines to all vanilla trucks, including custom gearboxes by PAAG to fit engine's low rpm range.
Man TGX Euro 6: only transmissions; use original engines (full torque @ 930 rpm)

This is for ECONOMIC drivers and there's no need to go much beyond 1360/1430 rpm. Set automatic shift on adaptive! You won't get more power with high rpm, since horse power does not count in the game, only torque.

If you use a H-Shifter, you may want custom H-Shifter layouts for the gear boxes included.
Get them here (zip with 2 *.sii files, and a Libre Office Calc file to look and play around yourself):

ENGINES:

MX-13 430 hp:
torque: 1940 @900-1430 rpm
secondary_torque: 2105 @900-1430 rpm
secondary_torque_gear_ratio: 3.00
volume: 12.9

MX-13 510 hp:
torque: 2330 @1000-1360 rpm
secondary_torque: 2508 @1000-1360 rpm
secondary_torque_gear_ratio: 3.00
volume: 12.9

This are low rpm "Boat" engines and I tweaked them a bit (fantasy style, secondary torque curve) so one can drive at super low rpm. These makes the truck feel more like a tractor with a low-rpm long stroking engine. They don't stall like SCS stock engines.

I made some Dashboard rattling (engine vibration resonance) sounds @~900/1550 rpm, so we can hear some engine vibration. Haven't seen this yet.

Engine sound are Kriechbaums Paccar sounds, enhanced a bit below 150 Hz for more rumble. I use HiFi speakers -- if you use a woofer you may have to turn it down a bit. :)

There is only one (strong and loud) engine brake step.

=====================================================
CAUTION: This mod deals with engine sounds. To make sure you don't get the "no engine sound bug" it's recommended to sell the engines or trucks before disabling this mod. I do not touch any sound exept engine. Put it below "Sound Fixes Pack".
=====================================================

I do not plan to support non-vanilla trucks. Feel free to fork this mod. But please respect my work. If you play fair you reference my work. Please do not reupload as-is without permission. Thank you.

GEARBOXES:

The 14-2/4 Diff 3.24 is an allround box fitting every need with Paccar's low rpm.

The 16-2/4 Diff 2.64 has pretty short gears. If you ain't lazy, you can pull between 1000 and 1180 all the time. Be aware the the shifting point deffers for gears 1 - 10 and 11 - 18. See data below. Subjecot of Change, see how you like it.

See the specs, especially auto shift threasholds of the engines.
Basically both boxes fit both engines. However, autoshifting of 16-2/4 and MX-13 430 is not ideal.

Great mod. I like these engines and your custom transmissions. I'm using the engine and transmission combo in ETS2.

I'm not able to find this mod on ATS. Please consider making this compatible with ATS as well. Thanks.
