Lowboy Cargo Extended
version 1.0 for American Truck Simulator (v1.39.x)
This mod expands the standard low-loader trailer from SCS, specifically:
- Adds new cargos;
- Allows purchasing the extended trailer variant from the Special Transport DLC;
- Allows transporting cargos from the Special Transport DLC without restrictions and escort, like regular cargos.
Cargos for the regular trailer are available in direct deliveries and on the freight market, not added to traffic;
Cargos for the extended trailer are available only on the freight market, not added to direct deliveries or traffic.
Attention! I am not a trucker and have no idea how to properly secure any particular cargo. I do not understand chains and straps, how they behave in different situations, or what weight they can hold. Therefore, it is quite possible that the securing methods presented in the mod are complete nonsense and in reality, the cargo will slide off at the first turn.
Be careful, the mod has several issues that I am unable to fix:
- The weight of some cargos was underestimated because the weight limit on purchasable trailers is very restricted. With higher weight, these cargos would not be available for transport.
- Do not take the "Pilot Boat" cargo on a two-axle trailer. This is because the 3D model of the cargo is adapted for three-axle trailers (as in the original Special Transport DLC), and I was unable to adapt the 3D model to a shorter chassis. If you take this cargo on a short chassis, the straps at the back will be hanging in the air.
WARNING! You need the Special Transport DLC!
