harvester transport is oversized but does not guarantee the vehicles? I have never found a load larger than this:smokeybear:

to everyone about this mod. yes its outdated and has been since 1.39. the point is. ats removed the files containing these trucks in it. when the dlc originally came out. ats added the option to have the trucks to spawn in but never added the spawner. his mod made it possible to spawn them in. but you seeats removed the trucks so they cant spawn in because this mod is only the spawner. i looked through the files

You are so incorrect. D..O.T and state police do escort certain loads and they will stop or block traffic.

My Reply:
For *certain* and highly specific loads, they will stop or block traffic but not for the vast majority.

I miss using this mod. Would love for it to be compatiable for the Four-0 update.
Atlas 11 Oct, 2020 @ 1:39pm 
Sadly, this mod is broken in 1.38. There's no one escorting you at all.
⚀ gmont42 3 Aug, 2020 @ 3:38pm 
Is this mod still active?
Mr_Nathan_Drake 14 Jul, 2020 @ 6:46pm 
This mod does not work with 1.38. Just the car at the back shows up but doesn´t follow me. The car at the front doesn´t even appear. So there is nobody to escort me. Everything worked fine until the 1.38 release.

I get an error - it seems that one ore more files are missing for download. Would love to have that mod working...

@Deebz__ its something that i need to look into. the way this originally worked is that the spawn rate of said police cruisers were changed to 0, removing the probability of randomization. a value was probably updated at some point that isnt reflected in this.
Deebz__ 23 Dec, 2019 @ 11:01pm 
Are you positive that this version only includes the two trucks, and no police vehicles? I still randomly get police cars at the front of the pack. Checking the files, I also see references to the following police car: traffic.crwn_o_ahp

Would love a F-250 just for driving from shop to shop think it would be a great addition to the game
Nitrodax777  [author] 8 Sep, 2019 @ 11:33am 
@SG Nitefox, i guarantee its jazzycat because all his stuff replaces normal models. try disabling his pack and see if it works.
SG Nitefox 6 Sep, 2019 @ 6:33pm 
No, just jazzycat mods and a couple trucks.
Nitrodax777  [author] 6 Sep, 2019 @ 2:57pm 
@SG Nitefox, are you running any additional special transport mods?
SG Nitefox 5 Sep, 2019 @ 1:33am 
This mod is causing these errors:
00:01:24.198 : <ERROR> [unit] File '<../../dlc_oversize.scs | >/def/country/california/traffic.dlc_oversize.sii':
00:01:24.198 : <ERROR> [unit] The unit '_nameless.294.1720.3720' of type 'country_traffic_info' has dangling pointer (to 'traffic.crwn_o_chp') in the attribute named 'object'.

This mod makes much more sense than the Police escorts:steamhappy:

I understand they are not your models. I was just saying the flashing lights need to be a little brighter. Thinking maybe someone will create a mod for that...
Nitrodax777  [author] 22 Aug, 2019 @ 2:28pm 
@TW blame SCS, these aren't my models
Nitrodax777  [author] 22 Aug, 2019 @ 2:28pm 
@aleya the furry wolf, negative. Escorts are scripted to the specific routes provided by the game.
PollySweetPaw/TTV 22 Aug, 2019 @ 12:28pm 
So true I haul oversize a lot and have never used cop cars other than in town s couple of times for closing down intersections, thanks a bunch for this mod.
TW 22 Aug, 2019 @ 8:53am 
This is a great mod. But the flashing lights on the escort vehicles need to be a little bit brighter....

XQS Creations 21 Aug, 2019 @ 10:20am 
in oregon to transport logging equipment you are required to have pilot cars. I wonder why for atleast the bigger loads scs didn't do this
starglaicer trucking 20 Aug, 2019 @ 7:16pm 
but anywho my question is can u add escort cars to the heavy haul pack. i rlly enjoy the escort cars and i was wondering if u added them to the heavy haul pack
starglaicer trucking 20 Aug, 2019 @ 7:15pm 
your correct btw i haul oversized loads.
Nitrodax777  [author] 20 Aug, 2019 @ 7:09pm 
Go to page 1 of the comments, I already have an explanation of what's going on. I AM a truck driver in America. They would never run an escort with only a lead police car. Any escort team that has a state trooper will run a standard 4 car team with the trooper in the rear, not the front. Because the front 2 escorts are always a height gauge escort and traffic mitigater escort before the actual truck.
ATS_Isaiah 20 Aug, 2019 @ 6:14pm 
Dude i like the mod but what you said about them not using Police vehicles your wrong on that part.When you are a truck driver here in the USA the load can only be so big without needing police escort,if the load goes about the normal size police have to be evolved so that way they can stop traffic and all the driver and load to safely pass through without any collisions with Civillians.
starglaicer trucking 20 Aug, 2019 @ 5:40pm 
hey i have a question for u Nitrodax777
Nitrodax777  [author] 20 Aug, 2019 @ 5:00pm 
@GT182 unfortunately there's no way to make a mod like that without scriptwelding something because the game has no correspondence to make job offers based on what time it is. Offer data is completely random generated. The cargo market is very basic and I think scs designed it that way so you won't ever be stuck somewhere without a backhaul. As far as the time thing is concerned, without using a mod you should plan the loads better. Just gotta remember it takes 4 hours to load so if the offer timer is very low, you'll have a greater risk of running late.
GT182 20 Aug, 2019 @ 2:30pm 
Very much needed. Finally someone got it right. Thank you Nitro. Now all that's needed is the time to run the load changed so you are not always late. That's the one of the things I hate about this Special Transport. The other is they are never run at night. ST has to shut down before dark in a safe location and doesn't continue on until after daylight. Can this be done in ATS?
Skull28 18 Aug, 2019 @ 11:31pm 
This.... Was needed... Very much.... Instant like and instant fav. x'D

dude fucking ty ive been trying to firgure this shit on my own ty very much
POWE®FULL™ 18 Aug, 2019 @ 3:01pm 
not, after delete of this mod and reload from save, all working correctly again. i was check it in three time
Nitrodax777  [author] 18 Aug, 2019 @ 2:54pm 
You're just not using the mod right. You literally even admitted to what you're doing wrong, you're driving too close. That's literally why it says when changing lanes to adjust speed. These front escort trucks are coded the exact same way as the police cars. They both function the exact same way. What you are saying is 100% incorrect and you literally have no idea what you're talking about.
POWE®FULL™ 18 Aug, 2019 @ 4:16am 
and other issue, now escort car can't change line, maybe because i drive very closed, front escort just stop and do nothing
POWE®FULL™ 18 Aug, 2019 @ 4:11am 
Not Police cars in escort will working incorrectly. cause they don't have the advantage of driving over others vehicles. they will get into an accident at an intersection if they try to drive a red traffic light
Nitrodax777  [author] 17 Aug, 2019 @ 5:17pm 
The only time I've seen police cars in escorts are for transports for extremely large oversized stuff like windmill blades or other loads that would require a push truck. But even then the police car wouldn't even be the lead. The standard 4 escort configuration I've seen is height gauge escort, traffic guide escort, oversize load truck, trailing escort, and THEN state trooper. Never seen them in the lead.
