LordBenji Posted April 17, 2017 Report Posted April 17, 2017 This is a special request of mine and my friend told me I should suggest it here. I'd like that support is added for truck's metallic paint job applied on painted trailers. Yes it would only be available via mods or save editing, but I don't see why it would hurt anyone to use that. At the moment, the server would kick me for invalid paint job accessory. Why? Well why not? I love save editing and showing off some of my work. I mean look at that... 1
Syntog Posted April 17, 2017 Report Posted April 17, 2017 I don't see this being implemented anytime in the future. This isn't necessary and I don't think it'd please enough people to make it even worth supporting. -1

Killua // Ireland ^_^ Posted April 17, 2017 Report Posted April 17, 2017 (edited) That does look great and despite as much as I like it I have to give it a -1 I don't see how it could be added because I remember before when we could have truck paints on cars but the DLC paints on cars caused some peoples games to crash and some people abused this fact so sadly all that had to stop meaning no more truck parts (paintjobs included) on cars and vice versa and this includes truck parts on trailers from the rules about save editing Quote and you may not mix truck, trailer and car parts. I highly doubt the rules changing to support this and even if they did it would be pretty unfair when we cannot have truck paints on the cars If the DLC paints on cars caused some peoples games to crash then surely this DLC paint on trailers could also do the same thing.

LordBenji Posted April 17, 2017 Author Report Posted April 17, 2017 @Lorena I already follow the suggested format. The name is in Title, the description is second paragraph, why it should be added is in third paragraph, and picture is obvious... And yeah it's a shame there's not a whole lot of people who would like it... And sorry I will not make a mod that will not be supported in multiplayer. I just hate when there's some restrictions, but I understand that people could abuse it on cars.
JeKnYan Posted April 17, 2017 Report Posted April 17, 2017 What about it being STOCK METALLIC, not DLC paints... (color0m) If my post helped, don't hesitate to click that green up arrow!
Killua // Ireland ^_^ Posted April 17, 2017 Report Posted April 17, 2017 Stock Metallic that could be good but again with that you have the issue that base game truck paints are also not allowed on cars even though they were not a problem with crashing (as far as I know) so would be a bit unfair Would be fantastic to have metallic painted trailers in MP tho because it does actually look really nice especially on that tank trailer
JeKnYan Posted April 17, 2017 Report Posted April 17, 2017 ^ Yes it looks great on tankers, here it is on my Schwarz curtain If my post helped, don't hesitate to click that green up arrow!
LordBenji Posted April 17, 2017 Author Report Posted April 17, 2017 Metallic paint from the base game shouldn't be a problem. So again, why not making an exception for that, but still kick for using Metallic from DLC? Despite it's not often requested, it would make some people happy. That would be the cherry on top of a cupcake.
Spirit Omega Wolf Posted April 17, 2017 Report Posted April 17, 2017 You can only use car parts on cars, truck parts on trucks, and trailer parts on trailers. No exceptions. As the metallic paint is not on trailers it is not a trailer part. Therefor cant be used and wont be allowed.
The Imaginative Lad Posted April 17, 2017 Report Posted April 17, 2017 There is most likely a reason to why the server kicks you for this. It possibly causes crashes or other issues when online. You must know that if it is not allowed, then it is not allowed for good reasons. Have a problem with your ban? Make an appeal
LordBenji Posted April 17, 2017 Author Report Posted April 17, 2017 Yes it's against the "mod guidelines", but things can change, rules can change. It's not like a mandatory rule like no ramming. I'd really like to see what exactly caused issues to the server. Was it DLC metallic paints? Was it also regular metallic? I wonder if the issue was too hard for the developers to fix and that they simply decided to forbid the use of paints from a different vehicle. Anyways, I guess it would need a lot of reactions from the community to actually make a difference... at the exception of a few things.
Guest Posted August 2, 2017 Report Posted August 2, 2017 Currently, there is no need to make changes in terms of invalid accessory so you will still be kicked for having those metallic paint jobs on your trailers. Also, it is not necessary to implement this as it would only affect a minority of TruckersMP users which does not outweigh the disadvantages. Also, the modding guidelines state in fact that truck parts do not belong anywhere else than on your truck, i.e. adding different paint jobs to your trailer which have been taken from the truck or car is not allowed as those guidelines claim "You can only use car parts on cars, truck parts on trucks, and trailer parts on trailers. No exceptions." Rejected.
