Kenworth W990 edited by Harven

Oprindeligt skrevet af Kenworth w990 brochure:

Kenworth’s long-hood conventional is the enduring symbol of American trucking — a perfect fusion of power, luxury, craftsmanship and traditional styling. For most professional drivers, it also represents the ultimate reward, a uniquely personal icon that stands for their dedication, achievement and sense of pride. Through the decades, our job has been to carefully — and continually — refine this classic without changing what made it great.

Introducing the Kenworth W990, the truck for those who put a premium on making a personal statement. It comes with uncompromising styling, straight ahead performance, premium finishes and lifestyle amenities that put you way ahead of the pack. It just doesn’t get any better than this.

This is Harven's edition of Frank Peru's w990. The mod was supposed to be just a fix for his mod but at some point I decided to do a complete overhaul. I removed everything (materials, textures, definitions, sounds, paintjobs - everything :)) from the mod and started with plain meshes. I did a lot of optimizing at this stage so the truck should not slow down the game too much ;). Lots of details which were in meshes is now in normal maps. I also replaced some models with lower-tris-count custom made ones. Since I made all the def files from scratch and also changed some locators and added new ones, you need to sell the old w990 before you activate this mod.

To better understand the scope of this edit, here is the size comparison (uncompressed): original mod - 1.8GB, this mod - 134MB

Skinning templates:
- all in one: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1MoVjZUwTIk9zWKD-EkAYF0V1Mic5U23E
- day cab (suitable_for[]: "daycab.kenworth.w990.cabin"): https://drive.google.com/open?id=15ggqQuGYX2SU5glFGoaLAD5-Vfzp_WqF
- 40-inch flat top sleeper (suitable_for[]: "40sleeper.kenworth.w990.cabin"): https://drive.google.com/open?id=1QmMq0GGklTEdAWsldwMjtfUtSkP9Al5m
- 76-inch mid roof aerodyne sleeper (suitable_for[]: "76sleeper.kenworth.w990.cabin"): https://drive.google.com/open?id=1i1iB-epJR_xYCghhU0kPNt4cvScjZW5M
The template is designed in the way that you can paint one side of the truck, then just duplicate and flip a layer vertically and everything should match perfectly - no need to align lines or anything :)


Here are support mods for SiSL Mega Pack, SCI DLC and 2 other steering wheels: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1YlfKWM_ISk6vTPc7f7kc1m75g7QFGwqy/view - of course you need to have SiSL Mega Pack and corresponding DLCs - those are only def files. I will get in touch with SiSL about including those defs in his pack.


Custom h-shifter layout for 15 speed transmission: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1PEQpB_VmM7YDgMjJJ8at6wZA9ezWCiMC - your splitter switch will work as a deep reduction switch, range switch will keep it's function. You can see the layout on the knob inside the cab.
