Cheers for this, I actually drive these for a living (well not exactly these, 793F is actually what I operate they are a touch smaller) The ones I drive will do 63kmph (39mph)

Very nice truck, thank You!

Could you add Dump truck somewhere in the description or add it as a tag, I have finally found this truck after like 3 years all because I think they are called dump trucks and not hual trucks?

I have tried to use this truck in my deep open pit mines but they will only crawl at 1 mph loaded. So I figured , okay, I will alter the .mdl files a bit to give them more power. I doubled the tractive effort, doubled the power, changed the capacity a bit, and saved the file. Problem is, when I restart the game, none of the values seem to actually change in the game. Am I missing something?

This mod looks fantastic! Do you know if it conflicts with other road-altering mods, or does it just add a new category? Thank you!

AemJaY , not yet. But I plan on it in the near future.
AemJaY Feb 5, 2020 @ 1:57am

what year does this unlock?

luftfisch Nice find on the tractiveEffort, I wouldn't have thought to mess with that. I loaded your recommenations (except capacity, cause almost 3000 subscribers would have more trucks than they need.) And with a tractiveEffort of 48 I didn't like the idea of still reaching top speed on the steep grades, so I then tried 34, 30, and settled on 24. Cause then they would slow to about 15 to 18 mph on the steep grades. I won't do anymore updates, so if you want to change any of the stats for your game, you can and they won't be over written.
luftfisch Jan 9, 2020 @ 5:59am 
tractiveEffort is the important value!

I did a series of tests and figured out the best values for your mdl:
tractiveEffort = 48
topSpeed = 12.0
capacity = 320

In reality the Cat797b is an incredible powerful truck that can haul more than 10 usual trucks and still reach a top speed of 42 mph. My settings are far below real world stats, but otherwise you would only need one truck to haul the output of an entire mine. With these values the truck can carry 80 ore at a top speed of 27 mph and still go about 18 mph on steep grades.

More is better
luftfisch Jan 9, 2020 @ 3:31am 
I had a look at your mdl file where I can find engine data for power and tractiveEffort. Are those values just linear values (more = better) or may be percentages (0..100), within a range (0..255) or inverted (less = better)? Isn't there any documentation available from UG?
mote454  [author] Jan 8, 2020 @ 3:55pm 
luftfisch Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. I did another test (see my screenshots) and I increased the HP by 1500 and it made no difference on the 3rd steepest grade. They all slowed to 1mph but did make it over the hill. So I'm not going to change anything. Your free to make the HP what ever you want and you won't need to worry I'll update in the future.
mote454  [author] Jan 5, 2020 @ 1:55pm 
luftfisch I used the horse power rating I found on the wiki, which in game came out a little different. But as in real life, these trucks haul like 380 tons. You don't take 380 tons up steep grades. I started were they could haul like 100 ore and they were too slow even on little hill. When testing 55 seemed much better, but I wasn't testing steep grades. I'll up the HP and test again.
luftfisch Jan 5, 2020 @ 12:52pm 
There must be an error with the engine data. I just tried it on a steep road and these trucks only run 2 km/h when half loaded (25/55). An empty caterpillar climbed with about 10 km/h. I replaced them by a vanilla truck that took the 25 ore and run away with 55 km/h...

Kazuto Kirigaya, Well yes, no problem at all.

Ich würde gerne dein Mod mit in meine Karte Region Mirabele ein bauen. Habe ich die erlaubnis diesen Mod zu verlinken?
mote454  [author] Dec 26, 2019 @ 2:09pm 
REXGOLD31, thanks for the nice comment. That Belaz is beyond my skills. I just took the Cat 797b model from the game and made into a mod.
REXURAL31 Dec 26, 2019 @ 4:53am 
mote454 Thank you very much your American dump truck is just super! I really increased the transported amount of coal iron ore and stone! now it carries 600 units! I like! three dump trucks do it! Tell me please, and you could only do the same Belorussian BELAZ-75 710 dump truck! it is the largest dump truck in the world! https://motaen.com/upload/wallpapers/source/2016/10/26/14/00/50388/mota.ru_2016102647.jpg

rb58nl Sorry man, unless their is a forklift in the game its above my skill set. I'm still a new modder.
rb58nl Dec 22, 2019 @ 6:50pm 
Been requesting for ages now. Can you do a forklift MOD?

Мощно! :cozybethesda:

[82nd] Wilhelm IX. I tried to make it an asset also, worked on it for more than 6 hours yesterday. I looked at many mods to see how to do it. I even had it's own mining category and everything, but as soon as I tried to place it the game crashed. I may look into it in the future again.
AlwaysRM Dec 22, 2019 @ 10:05am 
ah nice
mote454  [author] Dec 22, 2019 @ 9:55am 
AlwaysRM, yes their is a truck for each ore, Coal, Stone and Iron Ore. They are named what they haul.
[82nd] Wilhelm IX Dec 22, 2019 @ 9:55am 
will you make it an asset too?
AlwaysRM Dec 22, 2019 @ 9:44am 
Would it be posible for it to also ship Stone or Iron Ore?
TwotoolusFLY_LSh.st Dec 22, 2019 @ 8:37am
