dinosaur company names
Recently I got this excellent game and soon found out that creating truck skins is not that hard. I have a thing for drawing dinosaurs, so that's what I went with. What dinosaur-related company name would you put on a truck?

That's exactly where I got the idea. be great if you could mod the horn to do the voice of Marlon Brando.

I would certainly like to know how to do that, and i bet a few more would like to as well. ( any tips )

Sure thing. I started out looking for guides, but then I discovered ETS 2 Studio[www.ets2studio.com]. That handy tool takes a lot of textfile editing out of your hands so that you just need to draw textures and set a few values. The linked website has a pretty good guide on how to do all that. Another advantage is that you can work with standard png files and don't need a plugin for the file type the game uses. Basically you could do this just with ETS 2 Studio and MS Paint, though programs like Photoshop greatly enhance productivity.

Then you need some templates. I forgot where exactly I got mine, but any capable search engine will help you with finding them. Templates show you which part of the texture goes where on the truck.

The final thing you need to know and that I did not find on the first few guides I read: Once you have created your mod file and placed it in the appropriate folder you need to activate the mod for your profile inside the game. On the main menu there is an option to edit your profile. I assume most modders know that by heart and did not think silly me would need a guide to find that.

Thanks to everyone who made suggestions, there are some pretty great ones. "Future Oil" is glorious, but I'm not sure it would translate well into a skin ;)
In the meantime I made two more skins:

I put those 5 skins into one package and made it available from my dropbox[www.dropbox.com]. Please keep in mind that those skins are only working with the Iveco HiWay truck. Hope that pack works, it is slightly smaller than any single skin, but it seemed to work fine for me.

These look fantastic, wow!

1. Be careful lest your fleet be dubbed "lot lizards." (Look it up ;) )

2. Bronto-Logistics. "We may be slow but we haul anything, anywhere."

3. Allo-Shipping (Allosaurus) "We ship anything unusual."

4. (Related) My favorite experimental bomber from the cold-war era was the "Dyna-Soar."
