    You will find the other scripts in the  Set Terrain Height/Placement tutorials  a great time saver as well, but a word of warning on the Set Terrain Height script, it cannot be undone  so always do a backup first (simple way is to make a copy of your map Dem image).

    It is always better to experiment with different ways of doing things (on a blank map) and when you find one that works for you, use it and try and improve on it

    @WrinkleysRule huge thanks for the detailed help. 

  2. FS19 Parking Test Lot


    This is just a simple placeable under the decoration category.  Place this mod to test your parking skills in a semi.  You can do straight backing, an offset, or parallel park.  If you knock the cones over you can pick them up and move them.  If you want to reset them automatically simply sell the placeable and buy again, or save your game and start the game again.  It is a large area so be prepared to have an open space.


     

  3. Shywizard shared the image below on where to place your uv to work correctly for static (emissive) lighting.   Also be sure to use vertex paint in blender for the color you want to be emitted when the light is activated. If you don’t paint in vertex mode you will get an error when applying the static variable in the vehicle shader. Materials and color can be edited like typical udim settings in the shader as well.

    Below is an image explaining what the U,V stands for. Basically in blender U = X and V = Y.

  6. Grabby La Toosh setting speed


    Set the "maxForwardSpeed" to the speed you want to achieve.
    Then with no load test if you can reach that speed. 
    If not, then decrease the "minForwardGearRatio" number in small steps until you can reach that speed but no more. 
    Doing this will cause you to loose pulling power. 
    If you loose too much pulling power then increase the "torqueScale" until you have enough to get the job done but no more. 
    You can use my Horsepower chart to determine how much HP you would have at that Torque setting, and finally place that "hp" number in the "hp" attribute.
    NEVER change the RPM value!, that will disrupt the "Torque Curve" values, and make the vehicle very jittery and inconsistent while accelerating and possibly very unusable if you go to far.
    The minRpm and maxRpm are tied to the range and graduated steps in the torque curve. 

    Grabby La Toosh increase pulling power

    Search for  "torqueScale", it will be contained in the "motorConfiguration" section in the main XML

    Increase the number in very small amounts at a time.  increasing this number too far will cause very poor acceleration characteristics


    Grabby La Toosh  Engine Setting Definitions

     minRpm = "1000" - the minimum RPM at which the vehicle is operating. If the value is too high the vehicle tends to get a racing start (spinning or shooting away) - this value depends on: density (total weight in the i3d file) and torque value at the rpm value.

     maxRpm = "2200" - here is the maximum RPM this value depends on: density (total weight in the i3d file)
     minRpm and maxRpm are closely tied to the torque curve and should never be changed unless you really know what you are doing! changing these otherwise can cause a jittery and unstable driving experience
     
     minForwardGearRatio = Determines the max forward speed - the lower the value the faster the vehicle drives at the same rpm and torque. 
        
     maxForwardGearRatio = Determines the starting speed - If vehicle is starting out too slow you can decrease the maxForwardGearRatio.

     minBackwardGearRatio = Ratio of the reverse - the higher the value the faster the vehicle moves backwards        
        hp="xxx" -  This does NOT change anything!  this is only used for Calculation, change this number to what you want it to be, then you have to do some math - "hp * 0.00434 = xx", that is what you set the tourqueScale to, to get that howsepower.
            
     maxForwardSpeed="xx" -     This is the speed you are "Limited" to, raise the number to "allow" the machine to go faster, IF it has enough Torque to do so at X load
            
     brakeForce="xx.x"  -  Increase for more braking power
     
     lowBrakeForceScale="0.x" - Decrease for less engine breaking power, this is only when you are "coasting", this does not affect the brake pedal
            
    <motorConfiguration name="Name that appears in the Store" hp="305" price="0">
     <motor torqueScale="1.29" minRpm="850" maxRpm="2200" maxForwardSpeed="63" maxBackwardSpeed="22" brakeForce="13.5" lowBrakeForceScale="0.22" >
     
    Do NOT Change >     <torque normRpm="0.45" torque="0.9"/>
    Do NOT Change >     <torque normRpm="0.5" torque="0.97"/>
    Do NOT Change >        <torque normRpm="0.59" torque="1"/>
    Do NOT Change >     <torque normRpm="0.72" torque="1"/>
    Do NOT Change >     <torque normRpm="0.86" torque="0.88"/>
    Do NOT Change >     <torque normRpm="1" torque="0.72"/>
                    </motor>
     
    <transmission minForwardGearRatio="10.2" maxForwardGearRatio="250" minBackwardGearRatio="32" maxBackwardGearRatio="250" /> </motorConfiguration> 


    How to figure out what torque=HP

  7. So huge thanks to fscommando for starting this site to begin with. But the reason for this post is to make people aware of what a great asset a forum can be. Fc updated the site a bit last night to make it a bit easier to see the forum. It’s always been here, it has just been on be very bottom of the page. I will try to do better myself to keep on the subjects. Please feel free to start new topics as well. You don’t have to limit topics to mods via the link in the files. Hit the start new topic button and feel free to ask away. 
     

    Thank to everyone on the site. Let’s keep the traffic up to keep the site alive.

    Hi I always use the seeder's that you make  with every map , but today with a large field the seed and the fertilizer . has been empty when i want to fill it withe the  Auger Wagon for seed and fertilizer  . it fill just the seed and it didn't fill the fertilizer ,  just i can fill the  fertilizer  with the pallets 

    Is this still an issue with the latest update?

    I cannot get it to pop up in store options. it show im mod downloaded menu but not in game store. would really like to use that dope mod

    You get this worked out?  I haven’t heard of this issue with anyone. Anything in your log?
