First of all, many thanks to GhostTruck for his great 8×4 mod, which
I’ve included in this mod and I made it all-wheel drive.
Mod Name: Volvo High Way Power
Author: Djr30f (8×4 Chassis by GhostTruck)
Created and tested on game version: Steam 1.4.8
Mods________________________________________
All modifications are avalaible from level 0.
=============== IMPORTANT!!!!=============
IF YOUR LEVEL IS LESS THAN THE LEVEL REQUIRED FOR THE ORIGINAL PART,
YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO
GET THE PART DIRECTLY FROM THE VOLVO SHOWROOM. BUY THE TRUCK AS IT IS
FROM THE DEALER,
THEN GO TO THE NEAREST SERVICE STATION AND APPLY THE MODS.
===========================================
Chassis:
======All addon chassis are all-wheel drive to assist a bit in high
speed steering and to add extra stability, acceleration and grip.
======Engine: Engine power 4.200HP, torgue 20.000.
(Note: I can’t edit the clutch, so because of the engine power, it
slips a lot before it bittes. You may start with any gear,
it’ll slip a bit, but no matter the cargo, if on even surface, even
13th gear will get you going. From Quarry I start with 8th gear and
it gets me all the way up no problem at all, even with 25 tons of
cargo.)
======Transmission: 13 speed transmission, faster gearbox with
Rettarder for better breaking.
===== If you combine the modded engine and gearbox, you’ll easilly
reach 200 kph with any trailer and load. No trailer, you can exceed
260 kph
Due to very high speeds, I reccomend using both rettarder and engine
brake from game settings to assist in breaking, expecially with
cargo.=====
======All Cabins are avalaible from level 0, BUT YOU MUST GET THEM BY
UPGRADING THROUGH A SERVICE STATION.
======Serius tyres avalaible from level 0, BUT YOU MUST GET THEM BY
UPGRADING THROUGH A SERVICE STATION.
======Interior sound has been amplified, expecially the turbo (applies
to all Volvo engines) .
====== All mods are very cheap.

Baba, what *I* would do is find those entries and just delete them from the new Volvo scs file. You seem to have those already somewhere else. I constantly had engine conflicts and made one big engine and transmission scs file with a lot of ‘zzzzz’ in front so it would be loaded last.
HTH
I mean delete the *.sii files. NOT the lines IN the sii files…
Yes, delete the chassis sii file, but not the engine sii file or you would lose the engine with the high HP and torque stuff.
I would edit the array thingy in dg16gt750.sii to something like d16g750HPO.volvo.fh16.engine and also the name: “D16GT750 HPO euro 5” so it can be found in the truckshop.
I don’t understand any of this stuff, but it seems to work for me…
okay, I will test it with delete
some entries and
without any other mods
thanks for support
He did something on the chassis with the all-wheel drive to make it more steerable. If you delete you would lose that. Maybe if you edit the array a bit and the name (just like you did in the engine sii) you can keep this chassis and the other existing one. Try to find the other chassis and compare the content of the sii files. If they are exactly the same you can safely delete one.
Please don’t say this mod makes a Valiant out of the Volvo… No-Go! :-S
no way to test this MOD – CTD
Don’t disable your other mods if you want to check for conflicts.
Create a shortcut on your desktop of the gamelog for quick access. Start the game, get in the driverseat, pause the game and alt-tab to the desktop and check the gamelog via the shortcut there. The last entry would be \pause\. If additional editing is necessary, quit the game or unpause the game, ESC, go to your in-game profile as this seems to release all the scs files for editing. After editing choose in your profile \continue\ and everything will be reloaded, get in the driverseat, pause the game again and check the gamelog for conflicts.
But if you edited the array to a unique value (*any* unique value would do; you can put your mothers name in there if you want) and you won’t get a conflict from there. Don’t forget to change the name (not the filename; but the name in the sii file) too as that shows up in the truckshop so you can recognize the stuff you want.
@Baba, I found some troubling stuff.
Make *sure* to save your game in front of a truckshop *before* editing. Name it TEST or something. Also make sure that the engine and chassis
you edit are *not attached* to the truck AND disable the VolvoHighWay Power Mod or the truckshop will get confused what’s actually attached. According to the truckshop I had at one time three different transmissions attached while editing with the stuff attached to the truck and the mod enabled…and I couldn’t reset or repair that. Glad I made a test savegame first! So do that and buy a default volvo chassis and engine.
You have 2 errors: one chassis and one engine.
Open chassis 6x4R.sii with notepad and edit this part to:
SiiNunit
{accessory_chassis_data : 6x4HWP.volvo.fh16.chassis
{name: “@@chassis@@ 6×4 HWP”
Open engine d16gt750.sii with notepad and edit this part to:
SiiNunit
{
accessory_engine_data : d16g750HWP.volvo.fh16.engine
{
name: “D16GT750 HWP euro 5”
Enable the mod, go to truckshop and buy the HWP chassis and engine, go to the driverseat, pause the game and check the gamelog for errors.
If no errors, great, if there are errors, *first* reload the TEST savegame with the default chassis and engine, and the mod disabled, correct the typos, enable the mod… and … you know…test.
And yes, I really hope you get this working!
