Multiple truck mods in Haulin' is simple enough.
You should know how to use a ZIP program like WinZip, 7Zip or WinRAR.
Ensure your use of the truck mod is in accordance with the terms of the truck modders readme file or other notice(s).
Trucks available in the game must be listed in the game's /vehicle/truck/truck_storage.sii file.
Extract this file from the Program Files/18 Wheels of Steel Haulin/base.scs file into a temp dir in your My Docs/18 Wheels of Steel folder.
The truck_storage.sii file can be edited in Notepad.
Add the new truck mod *.scs file into your My Docs/18 Wheels of Steel/mod/ folder.
From the downloaded standalone truck pack find the truck_storage.sii file, and find the entry in there related to the new truck.
Copy that line ( looks like: @include "definition/p320.sii" )to your own truck_storage.sii file.
The order of entries in the truck_storage.sii file determines the order of appearance in the Showroom. Save!!
Then zip this truck_storage.sii file to your My Docs/18 Wheels of Steel/mod/ folder. When prompted for a filename call it "zzzMyHaulinTrucks.scs" or similar.
The "zzz" ensures it will be loaded by the game after other mods, and hence overwrite any other truck_storage.sii files.
Whatever you have called your My Docs/18 Wheels of Steel/mod/zzzMyHaulinTruckMods.scs file, run the game initially with the config.cfg file option uset g_console set to "1".
When the game begins to run hit "`" and watch to see line "19:50:55 : [zipfs] C:/Users/me/Documents/18 WoS Haulin/mod/zzzMyTruckingMods.scs successfully mounted [crc_0xea387c17]" ( or similar ) appears, and confirms this file was referenced last by the game engine - or at least following all truck mods.
Your new truck mod should be available in the game.
Repeat the process for each new truck mod.
REMEMBER: Your first port of call for mod problems should be with the modder.

WinZIP and WinRAR both offer free trial versions on their websites...however, they don't last long...if you want a totally free archiving tool, try 7-zip... www.7-zip.org/ |
