Templates & tobj files for DAF 2021

I'm looking for templates and tobj files for DAF 2021 (All three cabins: XF, XG, XG+)

my plan is to make this skin for DAF 2021:

Tobj files: just copy working ones and edit to your liking.

Or do I have chance to get tobj files by using scs extractor? I already have the DAF 2021 templates.

You will find tobj files by extracting the game files, yes. The 2021 Daf is package outside of the base game files so I imagine it's quite a good thing to use to get familiar with what makes up a truck.

I have downloaded The Scs extractor in march, but I Don’t remember How to use it and What is The easies way to use it.

You create a new folder put the scs extractor in there, and a copy of the dlc_daf_2021.scs
that you can find here on a default win install (if you changed drive on install look there)
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Euro Truck Simulator 2

drag and drop dlc_daf_2021.scs on the extractor and wait for it to finish.

My personal method is to place the extractor in the game install. I make a shortcut to it and rename it something like "00_DLC_DAF_2021_Extractor". Then in the properties of the shortcut I alter the "Target" launch command line so it reads something like...

"G:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Euro Truck Simulator 2\scs_extractor.exe" dlc_daf_2021.scs "E:\Creative\ETS2\ETS2_Extract_1_45"

This way I don't have to move any files about and can keep multiple shortcuts so if / when I want to unpack another version of a package I can edit the version number of the extract folder if I want and just double click the shortcut. The double zero is to keep them at the top of file explorer when sorted by name so I don't have to go hunting them.

Not a bad method :-), i prefer to only extract what i need when i need it.

tbh, the OP doesn't need to extract anything, when i first started making paint jobs i just took tobj files from another mod.
Nowadays for paint jobs it's just copy/paste/replace/rename :-)

But my skinning days are over, made hundreds, it's time to move on :-)
Though i still should do 2 megapacks with everthing that's worth sharing.

In The latest version of Paintjob Packer there’s the New DAF XG 2021 truck available. I’m going to download The latest version of Paintjob Packer.
