It looks awesome, the actions/movements look amazing. But no matter what I try to do, I can not click and drag the hook even with CTRL pressed.

In general I really like this mod, but I would like it more if you could have the pickup bullbar lights and winch installed at the same time.
Overall, good job! -

Works great and is a great mod . But i want to point out, that the winch is ripping of fairly easy, so a variant with stronger conection to the cars frame would be good. And it would also be cool when you could make a version of the winch, that is powered by the engine of the car.

Amazing! I have been waiting for something like this for a long time. Will make off road expeditions 10 times more realistic

Nice mod! I want to point out the points that, in my opinion, should be corrected or added:
1. Roller Fairleads on a synthetic cable - it shouldn't be like that. Rope, judging by his behavior, is synthetic. This is using Hawse Fairleads. Roller Fairleads on a synthetic rope causes it to wear out quickly and break at the wrong time, so it is used ONLY on a steel rope, or not at all. I myself killed my good rope like this, so no one does this in real life and in the game it hits realism a lot;
2. Ability to attach to another car. I think it would be great to add a mount on the hook to hitch with other cars;
3. Alternative universal mount for compatibility with other mods. I'm not good at coding and it's hard for me to attach a winch to my mod car. I guess a lot of people would like to go beyond standard SUVs;
4. In the future, I would like several types of winches. So, for example, you can make a twin-engine, vertical or two-speed fast winch for competitive off-road vehicles;
5. Ideally, on Roamer-type vehicles, the winch should be placed on a platform rigidly fixed to the frame. If the winch is mounted on the bumper, it breaks off with a little effort along with the bumper itself. Naturally, in life, too, so rarely do.
In general, the mod is very good. Thanks!-

Thanks for the detailed review
1: The rope is technically as heavy as a steel rope and as weak as a synthetic rope, since it's quite hard to get such complex jbeams to be lightweight, but I guess I can add another fairlead option.
2: Currently working on this feature, but you can also just use node grabber to attach to nodes.
3: Realistically attaching the winch universally isn't really possible because different cars have different bumper and frame structures.
4: That's one of the things I'm planning to do.
5: I thought the bumpers were already pretty decently attached to the frame, but I'll probably add some chassis attachments too.
I'll try to fix these things when I get the time to but it will probably be after the modding challenge is over, since I'm not really allowed to make many changes after the deadline. But thanks for the winch tips though, tbh I didn't even know very much about winches before making this mod lol

It attaches and detaches when you click the trigger on the hook, sometimes you might accidentally click it when dragging the hook

Amazing, only thing it needs is to be added in the winch slot for the flatbeds

Amazing mod, something I've been looking for for a while. It would be even better if you but this winch onto the flatbed recovery truck configurations for the D-, H- and T-Series so cars could be pulled onto the rollback flatbed.

very cool, it seemed like a trifle, but as it became more interesting to play, right now everyone will like it and there will be cards with a hook and the developers will catch up :)

I've waited to see one of these put into the game for too long, been playing Snowrunner that whole time. Works fantastic for getting other cars unstuck and flipped back over too. Perhaps tow hitch/rear bumper mounted one too?

Been waiting for this since the game came out, love it, works perfect. Only thing it needs is to be mountable on the wrecker flatbeds.

Magnificent, amazing, exactly what this game sorely needed! Due to its sheer versatility and being such a game changer, I think I've found my favourite mod of the competition! Would you mind if I added it to some mod vehicles with your base file as a dependency? Also, a trigger to connect this to tow hitches would be great for a future update!

Thanks, yeah you can add it to whatever you want, just use one of the roamer winch jbeams as an example, you just need to add a slot and the props for the winch.
