Re: trucks Reply #39 – January 13, 2009, 11:00:29 pm I can't find out for the photos I have. It seems a ship container but I'm not sure. Anyway, is possible to create a truck that can manage more than one type of freight, isn't it? Quote Selected Last Edit: January 28, 2009, 07:46:49 am by vilvoh

Re: trucks Reply #41 – January 13, 2009, 11:16:56 pm I usually create this trucks to transport freights which don't have a lot of vehicles available. Sometimes you only have one as happens with steel, sand, cement, etc..at least in pak64. So I try to fill those gaps with these trucks.Btw, I've found the history behind Cracker Box's nick.Quote1960 - "F" aluminum tilt COE models later became know as "Cracker boxes" due to the boxy cab shape.

Re: trucks Reply #42 – January 16, 2009, 07:14:42 pm I've finished those two ones: GMC 238 CrackerBox and Mack MB A-P-A. Both are light trucks with medium capacity, arround 85 km/h, 18 tn and running cost of 7.10 cr/km.P.S: sources at g.s.c Quote Selected

Re: trucks Reply #44 – January 16, 2009, 11:23:48 pm Thanks. I'm glad you like them..they're quite balanced and the graphics are simple but effective. Btw, the next truck I'm going to create will be perhaps another road train or a steel/iron small truck.EDIT: An advance of Berliet Stratadair 20 for transporting iron ore and steel.

Re: trucks Reply #47 – January 21, 2009, 09:42:18 pm The last one from now will be this Kentworth K104 NZ for transporting logs and planks..I've to fix some details like the logs texture to avoid the grainy effect and the metallic material for the trailer, but it's almost finished. I'll use a different color scheme for each version: black for logs and blue for planks. Quote Selected Last Edit: January 25, 2009, 01:03:11 pm by vilvoh

Re: trucks Reply #49 – January 27, 2009, 10:05:16 pm I couldn't resist to make this huge truck called Sharpwood 350 Titan. It's quite similar to another existing one on pak64, but that was imho quite small so I decided to make a slightly bigger version. After all, it's heavy mining truck, isn't it? Obviously It'll transport a large amount of bulk goods (coal, sand, stone and probably iron ore)I've to do some scale tests to make it fit on scale, but it's almost finished.

Re: trucks Reply #50 – January 28, 2009, 11:09:36 pm I was talking with Zeno when I realized that its real name is Terex Titan 33-13, and was the world biggest truck (now is Liebherr T282, which is also in my list.. )It's really huge: Capacity: 260 tnWeight: 340 tnPower: 2460 kW Speed: 67 km/hCost: 34.380 crRunning cost: 59,61 crIt can transport sand, stone, coal and iron ore (mainly, arids and bulk goods) and well, I think it fits on the scale (it's bigger than MHz's one, of course) Only recommended for moving large amounts of goods to short range distances....enjoy!!

Re: trucks Reply #59 – February 11, 2009, 06:10:16 pm Ei Vilvoh, do you have any trucks planned that transport paper? It's sad to only have one choice for trucks for paper for a millennium or so. If you have done one from the earlier pages, please do tell. Quote Selected
Re: trucks Reply #60 – February 11, 2009, 09:43:15 pm Yes, sure..why not. In fact I was thinking on changing the Peterbilt from logs and planks to paper... I'm open to suggestions but If I remember correctly, I've planned three single trucks and 3 long trucks (cab+trailer) for transporting paper.EDIT: The list of paper trucks.SingleMultipleInternational DR-700Kenworth KCD 825-C (1952)White Expediter P20Kenworth KCD 825-B (1954)Renault GoeletteInternational ACCO T2670Freightliner TTNMercedes Benz GCF(1965) Quote Selected Last Edit: March 13, 2009, 05:57:09 pm by vilvoh

It has been pretty much irritating to pursue a BookShop line due to the default Paper vehicle having low carrying capacity and the fact that you only have it as a choice for a Veeeeeeeeery long time. Indeed you can use trains, but it doesn't really pay much so you'll just gonna exhaust your funds.I'm going to wait for these, thanks for confirming vilvoh. =D Quote Selected
Re: trucks Reply #62 – February 13, 2009, 06:48:09 pm The first truck for paper. It's a Kentworth KCD 825-C Auburn with trailer. Quote Selected Last Edit: February 17, 2009, 03:21:42 pm by vilvoh
Re: trucks Reply #63 – February 16, 2009, 10:22:41 pm Peterbilt 344 DTx series (Logs and Planks) and Kenworth KCD 825-C (paper) finished. There's a problem, for those like Moppi who want to create profitable paper lines. By the tests I've done, that good is extremly low profitable. The max income you can get with KCD 825-C is 600 cr. with a payload of 28 rolls (cab+trailer)!!.. so if the distance between paper factory and print is medium or long, I recommend not to use trucks, but large trains instead or you'll probably go bankrupt. Enjoy with the trucks! Quote Selected Last Edit: February 17, 2009, 09:05:48 am by vilvoh
Re: trucks Reply #64 – February 16, 2009, 10:31:07 pm W00t! Thanks Vilvoh, these are amazing. I'm not really going for profits in regards with the paper, i just find the default truck not having a much bigger capacity daunting (add to that as i already mentioned, you only have it as a choice in terms of trucks for the entire duration of your save) specially when the Printing Works eat Paper Fast. Sometimes the distance between the Paper Factory and the Printing works isn't really that far so trucks are more space friendly for me. Quote Selected
Re: trucks Reply #65 – February 16, 2009, 10:45:45 pm Ok. The truth is that I usually do not play as much as I would like to, and although I always test the vehicles in game, I actually don't realize some of those details that usual players tend to notice. Btw, I'm finishing another version of Kenworth, called KCD 825-B with a little bit more capacity (almost 30 rolls) Quote Selected

Re: trucks Reply #67 – February 19, 2009, 10:28:03 pm Kenworth KCD 825-B ready for downloading. It's quite similar to 825-C, but with different color, a little bit more capacity, speed, cost and running cost. We could say it's more advanced than 825-C. Btw, the Mercedes is almost finished. I'll post the pak file tomorrow. Quote Selected
Re: trucks Reply #68 – February 20, 2009, 05:11:46 pm Here it is: Mercedes Benz GCF for transporting paper. It's almost the same as Hajo's Papiertransporter, but faster and with a little bit more capacity. Obviously this means it's more expensive...
