User_2416306 Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Outline Basically, an extra tier is added to patreon for VTC Owners specifically. the idea being that by donating (for example) $20 a month or free, they can get a fleet of skins added to the game (up to 2 truck brands and 2 trailer types or something). From here, they gain a new role in the game as something like "VTC Operator" or something which then gives them access to a menu in game that would allow them to add members to a list (basically just to give them access to the skins). In game it would be like the patreon vehicles, so if you're not in said VTC, you cant use the skins, but you can see them in the list. Obviously, there would need to be set requirements to apply. something like 50 members etc. This would allow other players to see verified VTC's roaming around in their colours, however limiting these skins to the VTC members only. VTC Verified Everyone wants to start a VTC and everyone wants their own skin, however i can imagine that if everyone got to add a skin, it would cause a lot of memory to be used and cause a lot of extra loading. Due to this i believe the idea would be something like 50-100 Members minimum to be able to apply to be verified. From here they will be on probation, watched to ensure that all or most members are active and that its not a boosted VTC. From this, the owner will then receive a notification of whether they got accepted or not. If accepted, this user will be given a new link to apply for VTC (whether this is a paid Patreon thing or not is up to truckersMP) in which they will supply the required skins and then be provided the new role in discord and then in game. VTC Menu The idea of the in game menu is more to start a location to build upon. To start with it would be simple and basic enough that they just select people online that are in their VTC to grant them access to the in game skins of their VTC (Same way patreon vehicle works, but obviously would have to be redone to allow for multiple conditions). from here it would have no real purpose for continued use but would at least start the beginning of a in game VTC Menu VTC Skin These skins would be user locked defined by who can use it in the VTC Menu, this could be used as another way to earn truckersMP more funding by having different levels of packages for the owner to pay for to allow skins eg. package 1: - 1 truck skin - 1 trailer skin Package 2: - 1 truck skin - 3 trailer skins Package 3: - 2 truck skins - 2 trailer skins etc etc... Obviously this doesn't need to be a paid option however the idea of having this and making it a patreon item or use Invision Community's built in store with subscription services is up to truckersMP. Personally i think it keeps VTC's honest in those that want to be serious and put their money into to making it look professional or those casual VTC's with a little spare cash. What do you guys reckon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Hey, This is something we have planned in the future. However, as of now, I will reject this suggestion due to it being one of the frequently suggested things. You can read more here.
