Check latest posts for updates. Hello all, I'm back with a new mod, and this time it's not a skin or some joke mod. I've been working on a real mod for the past week or so. It's a mod of the class 8 heavy duty semi-truck, the Mack Anthem! Nobody stepped out to make a mod of it, so here I am doing it myself after doing alot of research about modding. Let the pictures roll! Progress: Not Started | Work in Progress | Almost Finished | Finished Day-Cab 48"" Sleeper 70"" Sleeper Mirrors Chicken Lights/Markers Interiors Paintjobs Glowmaps Wheels (Both stock and Wheel Tuning Pack wheels along with their hubs, hubcaps and nuts including ones from other DLCs) Accessories Variations of Parts Interior Accessories Materials/Textures Jbeam secret message: this mod might or might not be included with loads and even trailers from ats in a future update ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Please note that this will be my first vehicle mod, so please expect bad deformations at initial release. Random QnA (just questions that I think would be asked in this thread) Q: Will it have skin support? A: Yes, but skin support will not be available in the initial release. It is planned though. Q: Can you add this part? A: No. This mod will only include vanilla ATS parts for the Anthem. (I also can't take the models of mods made for the Anthem in ATS) Q: When will it release? A: There is no confirmed release date, I'm trying to take my time. Q: Can you make it's fictional name [this]? A: While I'm indeed am trying find a better fictional name, check post #75 on page 4 to see the names that'll most probably be the official fictional name of it. But it doesn't mean yours won't be selected as I most probably will change up my mind if you submit a better, more fitting name. Q: Why is it on hold? A: There are multiple reasons for that, my last "long" message on this thread should explain it, but I'm just gonna say this since that message is a little bit outdated on the info... It's also because of idiots asking me for the meshslaps in BeamNG kids videos... Q: How's the progress (as of 12/28/2022)? A: Can you please stop asking this. Barely any especially since my school hasn't given us a Christmas break this year for some reason. Notes: -The mod will have 2 versions, one will be set on the T-Series frame so you can combine it with other mods, the second version will be it's own vehicle on it's own frame with no T-Series mod compatibility. This might or might not be scrapped due to many T-Series mods (including big ones with upfits) breaking it. -I need help with naming. -I also need help with the steering wheel.

Yes, although as I said in the notes that I need a 3D Gavril logo, and frankly enough there isn't a 3D Gavril logo present in any Gavril vehicle in the game, unless you count the T-Series hood emblem (which is literally just a button with Gavril lettering) and I don't want to use that.
bravo! finally a semi that isn't a crappy free model off of a sketchy website that has the jbeam of a legran!!!11
I like the idea, I will probably choose that as the name if I can't find better ones. I don't know, Gavril seems to be more fitting for it.
I've got some few suggestions here but you choose which one fits better Gavril M-Series (M just stands for Mack / Mac / Mak Series) Gavril Anthem Gavril C-Series (Colossal Series) Gavril S-Series (Strong / Super / Staunch) - My Favourite One Now for the logo either remove the "MACK" and replace it with the Gavril logo or simply leave it a blank And for the hood ornament its either a letter G with a wing on it like this one Or leave it a blank And you can do the same thing with the Steering wheel logo too
I've been working on the fuel tanks, I got almost all of them in and after that I'll do the sideskirts and then the license plate (plus the chromed large bumper), I kinda want to share big progress all at once instead of small progress frequently for now. I like most of those, but the problem is that none of the Gavril logos have a 3D model. They're all 2D textures with normal maps, I can only put them on the badge and the steering wheel as a normal map, but for the front emblem I need a 3D logo. I dont want to leave it blank btw i really like the name "gavril colossal"
After digging for appropriate names for the Mack,I found Gavril Axel Wentward Blaze Gavril Dragon Brutto Destroyer Thats all i can find and think of
