can you please remove the shout trailers ability to carry logs because there is a scout log trailer mod

Thechosen22 25 Jun, 2022 @ 1:56pm 
Unfortunate, thank you anyway.

Hey Thechosen22, thank you for using my mod. Unfortunately i lost the original files some time ago, i can't update the mod anymore. Keep on logging anyways!
Thechosen22 6 Jun, 2022 @ 5:52am 
Hey! Thanks for making my life easier with this mod.

I don't know if you work on this mod anymore or you'll be able to receive this, or see this, but there's a bug with the MAZ-537 and the Long Log trailer.

You, for whatever reason, can't load Long Logs onto the MAZ-537 while also using the Spare Wheel attachment, despite there being plenty of space, and it allowing you to equip it.

If you could fix this, that would be wonderful, many thanks.

Once again Angus, fantastic work with the stock cars. This is how the cars should have been done in the game. Love the XD version of the FL120 also :steamhappy:
Spiess Stfw. a.D. 7 Aug, 2019 @ 11:25pm 
Gute Arbeit. :-)) :steamhappy:

I say this because the K700 mod adds the CAT crane to the original K700 (Even the one's that spawn on the map)

So it would be nice to be able to put the CAT crane on the K8400 that spawns on the map too!
CoryDeRealest 21 Jul, 2019 @ 8:42pm 
I see the CAT crane on your Skidder but is there a way to add the CAT crane to the original K8400 Skidder that spawns? Let me know, that would be awesome!
CoryDeRealest 21 Jul, 2019 @ 8:36pm 
Hey I don't see the K8400 Skidder arm crane? Can you fix that?
Angus McFife  [author] 12 Jun, 2019 @ 1:01am 
Finally added Kraz-255 and Ural-375D.
Not much left now, eh?

1/2
Another nice update for you guys:

All ABC-Cranes now have a winch point to its Grappler or Hook. I made the cranes stronger and gave most smaller vehicles a well balanced winch point on its roof, so you can now lift and move them around or even save them after accidents or whatever. But be careful, you can easily flip your rescueing truck over, due to the weight of the other vehicle. Be caucious and use heavy trucks with cranes that have anchors, like the Maz-538. I repeat, be careful and move the crane slowly when you try to lift or rescue another vehicle with it or you will have one more vehicle to rescue. Cranes are strong, but you shouldnt be able to lift heavy vehicles with it. Skidder crane now makes for a nice tow-crane to lift almost any front or rear axles of other vehicles.
Cranes get wearker the further away they are from the vehicle. Close to your Truck you should have no problem lifting small vehicles.
Angus McFife  [author] 10 Jun, 2019 @ 2:48pm 
The crane on the usa-small-carriage acts weirdly at start.
The winch points on the roof of smaller vehicles are sometimes hard to select, try different viewing angles, they should appear and be selectable. Try a bit around, you will get the hang of it, im sure. The winch points on the roof are at the center of mass of the vehicles, so its easier to move them around ir bring them back on top.

And now im trying to rescue my little tractor that broke through the ice on SOVKHOS! PREPOSTEROUS!! But thanks to this little incidence, it gave me the idea to this update :)

Have fun flipping over your trucks!
Angus McFife  [author] 7 Jun, 2019 @ 9:56am 
Added true UAZ-469, renamed the old UAZ-469 to what he really is, a UAZ-3151.
Uaz-469 and -3151 differ slightly from each other
Gave both Uaz some love, Luaz too. All of them actually fun to use now, give them a try!

Have a nice day!
Angus McFife  [author] 6 Jun, 2019 @ 1:07am 
Added a XD version of the Freightliner FL120, still 6x4 but pretty capable with the westernstar tires, especially when carrying heavy loads, thus worth 4 balance points. Updated some screenshots.

Have a good day!
Angus McFife  [author] 5 Jun, 2019 @ 1:12pm 
Hey folks, i did another update. This time i did many changes to scouting vehicles. I had the feeling they were too slow and not worth it, since any truck was better and faster for scouting. I recommend using the Zaz-Workshop addon i added to the required addons list, so the scouting vehicles have even more available addons. Made the cars faster and gave them better tires. Be careful using the 1+ on solid ground, or you will crash your vehicle in the next sharp turn. JumZ-6a is more fun now, zaz too. Better springs for scouting vehicles too, especially Napco and Ford when carrying tiny logs on bed. H1 may be a bit overboard.
Did some other changes to trucks, GMC and Bison are useable offroads now, but dont expect wonders, they are still 4x6. Ural 4320-10 recieved new tires, some star ratings were adjusted. Increased K700 and Cat 545c engine torque, adjusted Cat 584-hd gears.
Probably some other things i forgot.

Have a good time loggin' fellows!
Angus McFife  [author] 14 May, 2019 @ 6:24am 
@GDracer16 Thank you for subscribing to my mod!
Changges to the GMC DW950:
- increased engine torque, matching that of a 6-71 Detroit engine
- increased steering angle from 30° to 40°, like most other trucks
- added some addons, e.g. equipable beacons or red lights (only if you subscribe to Pavels C-255 with light addons official mod) or the usa crane
- changed tire frictions, weights and gears
- things i cant remember :)
GDRacer22 14 May, 2019 @ 2:32am 
Im wondering what tweaking has been done to the GMC DW950?
Angus McFife  [author] 11 May, 2019 @ 12:56am 
@Texshi
Thank you for subscribing to my mod. Only the WesternStar and Ford LTL are capable to do offroading. The Frightliner and Bison will struggle offroad, intended.
Texshi 10 May, 2019 @ 2:41pm 
You did not buff the American trucks enough in my opinion they just do not pull or grab feels like you have to spiderman winch across every little pothole
Angus McFife  [author] 10 May, 2019 @ 1:37pm 
@tonydestroyer
Thank you for subscribing to my mod. But you should have about 30 cars and trucks to choose from, when selecting your vehicles for your next map, all beginning with ABC. Look at the very bottom under "uncertified mods".
tonydestroyer 10 May, 2019 @ 7:04am 
I tried launching the game after downloading this, nothing changed
𝕸𝖎𝖓𝖎𝖒𝖆𝖑 9 May, 2019 @ 8:50am 
thx Dude! nice work
dlm375 7 May, 2019 @ 9:58am 
Love this mod even more now. First time a mod creator has listened to any of my suggestions ;-) Thanks! This is how the vehicles in Mudrunner should have been done.
Angus McFife  [author] 7 May, 2019 @ 4:03am 
Fancy Oldtimer-DLC Update:

- Added the Oldtimer-DLC vehicles
- Added the Tiny Log Loading Option:
The Beds of Chevy Napco 3100, Ford F150 and the Firewood Trailer can be loaded with tiny
logs (2 Points, 2 Short Logs, both regular and hardcore mode, generous loading areas, better
not drop loads... )
- Added proper cranes and mzkt-winch to K-700 and K-8400
- Frightliner chooseable Difflock
- Added some new screenshots, showing some new stuff
- Many small adjustments

I hope you have fun and enjoy my mod, let me know what you think!
Paceline 5 Apr, 2019 @ 3:30pm 
Excellent mod so far but I'm not seeing the Ford LTL-9000 having all-wheel drive. Only has the rear and the rear diff lock. Going through the mud the fronts never spin whilst the rears are spinning away.
El_Muna 6 Mar, 2019 @ 5:30pm 
Can you add a long chassis to the stock game truck ?
dlm375 20 Jan, 2019 @ 9:05am 
Can you make the diff lock selectable on the Freightliner F120? The turning circle is an issue when you cannot turn off diff lock.
Rek 16 Jan, 2019 @ 12:58am 
is it possible to speed up the steering of the maz 538? it's excruciating
Myhraa 15 Jan, 2019 @ 9:41am 
Or Could you make the Bison 6x6 a stand alone mod ? would love that ! cheers
Myhraa 15 Jan, 2019 @ 8:03am 
@Angus Mc fife is it possible to download the old version of this mod ? when the Bison had the 6x6 and so on ? or could you upload it if not already to a site?
Angus McFife  [author] 4 Jan, 2019 @ 6:30am 
@unclesam Thank you. I dont think thats possible.
Petrovich 4 Jan, 2019 @ 5:15am 
Great work! Is it possible to apply these changes to original trucks without modification of original game files?
Myhraa 24 Dec, 2018 @ 3:20pm 
This mod goes from bad to worse ....
Myhraa 24 Dec, 2018 @ 3:16pm 
NOOOO Make the Bison 6x6 again !!!!!!!
Angus McFife  [author] 24 Dec, 2018 @ 12:57pm 
Changed ZIl 130, Chevrolet Bison and Ford LTL9000 to RW only, but increased friction on the rear tires. Now these Trucks suffer from being RW only, but are still useable in offroad situations. Lowered star-ratings accordingly.
527520139 24 Dec, 2018 @ 8:21am 
Merry Christmas and thank you for your work.
Angus McFife  [author] 24 Dec, 2018 @ 6:18am 
Added ZAZ-968m, Merry Christmas :)
Angus McFife  [author] 23 Dec, 2018 @ 2:28pm 
added following trucks:
Kraz-260
Kamaz-4310
Maz-6317
Angus McFife  [author] 22 Dec, 2018 @ 11:54am 
Settled speeds:
1. gear is about 15km/h
1+ gear about 20km/h
highest gear ~30km/h or above
JumZ and LuAZ still slower, intended
balanced some suspensions of heavy trucks
added Zil-131
Myhraa 20 Dec, 2018 @ 6:25am 
i think the mod is fine as it is , except the axels for the 6900 ofc, keep up the good work :D:D
Angus McFife  [author] 16 Dec, 2018 @ 2:38pm 
i will update gears and speeds in a few days
Angus McFife  [author] 16 Dec, 2018 @ 1:55pm 
thank you Jelly Bean. Im aware of that 6900XD problem, but i am no 3d model artist, i cant fix that. if i move the wheels closer to the axles, the truck tends to topple over.
Kaedescope 16 Dec, 2018 @ 1:41pm 
Some of the switched wheels for some trucks don't have an axle connecting the wheels to the chassis. This is highly noticeable on the 6900XD if you have no addons on the back you could see the wheels don't have an axle connecting the wheels to the chassis.

Great mod though.
Angus McFife  [author] 16 Dec, 2018 @ 6:13am 
the aforesaid vehicles always had inclined front axles, i dont know how to change that. also i dont think that its a bad design
527520139 16 Dec, 2018 @ 5:48am 
As for enough friction, it is easy to cross the muddy road surface and get out of the mud.
527520139 16 Dec, 2018 @ 5:46am 
The wheels of MAZ-543 and MAZ-535 and MZKT-7429 trucks are not vertical and have inclined angles.
Angus McFife  [author] 16 Dec, 2018 @ 5:38am 
what do you mean by "skewed" and "adequate"?
527520139 16 Dec, 2018 @ 5:31am 
Adequate friction can be added to all trucks.
527520139 16 Dec, 2018 @ 5:12am 
Thank you for your work.
