Recent FAQ's
I usually try and address comments individually, but in this case that would take quite a while; Thank you all for this positive response! It makes me quite happy to see so many people enjoying this after the months that went into making it. Now, as for some of the questions and concerns:

Chassis visibility in the interior view
A current limitation of the game is that, even if I make a visible chassis model for the interior view, there won't be visible wheels. The base game trucks' daycab variants have the same issue. I consider this to be a low priority until SCS addresses it in the base game trucks. ;)

Regarding sounds
People's taste in- and tolerance for sound mods varies a fair bit. If I do make sounds for this myself, I would want to make sure they were of sufficient quality to subject people to for hours on end. The stock engine sounds, while bland, are at least easy on one's ears. ;)

I have a solution that will be in the 1.0.1 update which should make it easier for sound modders to integrate their work with this mod. It should also reduce the potential for crashes if sound mods are used and then removed. If you are working on a sound mod, be sure to wait for the 1.0.1 update as it will hopefully save you a lot of work and a few headaches.

I've also been slowly collecting sound samples from videos and have a couple leads on obtaining original sound samples. I don't want to promise anything I don't know that I can deliver, but I do intend to at least try my hand at including sounds in a (much) later update.

Regarding sleepers/chassis/GPS/other features
Don't worry, the integral sleeper cab variant will be included in the 1.1.0 update. I might finish it some time in July. Anyone who goes poking around inside the files might notice a few files relating to it, and other unfinished features. I intend this and my other mods to evolve over time and otherwise be well-maintained. Stay tuned!

Requests/Demands
I don't take requests, but I don't mind suggestions. If you've ever seen my projects list[scr-rigs.com], you'd understand why. I'll be very lucky if I finish what's on that page within three years, and that's not even a complete list of what I have planned.

Hey, so i am trying to add an allison 10 speed to this truck (with a coustom rear end diff and to torque limit) and I have looked at all the modding videos and i have all the files correct i think my issue right now is that im on a mac and the game wont unpack my .zip file even if i change it to .scs (i am using keka) any modders using macs? or maybe Smarty if you could be so awesome i want to send you my transmission files and maybe see if you can add/zip/copy/keep (if you like) and send it back to me? (i guess anyone with a PC could maybe help) i love the allison 7 you added i just dislike the top to bottom range drop in 1,2&3 (2,000 rpm to like 1,000 or so (lots of power loss)) i use this rig for moving the heavy stuff i am using the Cat skin and the CT660's tires so it looks like a monster (also using the engine pack that is out there for it (forgot the outhor sorry)) so it sounds like a monster too i wanted to maybe cousomize the engine to run higher RPM (make use of that 3,500 guage (3,200 redline maybe) but if i cant get any of my edits to work than Its all for nothing ive been at this for 3 days tring diffrent sizes of zip, diffrent formats, diffrent filepaths, using refrence on your scot the allison mod the engine pack earlier mentioned, it looks just like them in the filepaths, I even tried to make it a picture and description for the modmanager and i cant get it to work. i have even tried to just simply unzip a mod rezip the same mod and it wont even load(the files all show in modmanager but does not activate i have tried .scs,.zip.and just plain folders no crashes have happened the game is just like before(exept the mod i rezipped doesnt load iether) I wasnt planning on publishing any of them because i know your trucks allready a beast.. someone please help me sorry if I ran on about it im a little rusty with some of this i used to own the files of any 18WOS now im back to wtf square one lol

Good thing I read this before commenting, thought the invisible chassis was a bit odd. Never new this was with the vanilla trucks too. Must be cause the scot has a lower back window
