| Is it possible to add a tractor loader attachment in the xml file? And after purchase the whole attachment hydraulics, arms and animations would be dynamically loaded. I want to make multiple attachments so it makes more since to dynamically load than visibility. |

| Hi, you can do it by using configurations and place everything in the main i3d. So you would need to work with 'visibility', but that's allright :) Cheers, Emil |

| no its not alright if I have 10 attachments at 50 megs each that makes my whole i3d 600 megs. so I asked dynamically loaded and not visibility for a reason. |

| I think that GIANTS themselves, who I believe wrote the entire engine for this game, do know what they're talking about. But, if you don't like that (for whatever reason), you're obviously free to implement another way of achieving this. I suggest you check out some other mods that have a lot of configurable options, and see how they do it. Check if that impacts the performance of the game. Also, if your attachments grow too large in file size, maybe you should be looking at optimizing those, instead of trying to re-invent the wheel. Finally, purely as a suggestion, you might want to think about being friendly to the people from GIANTS (or anyone for that matter). We all have more important stuff to do than being 'yelled at' on a forum, and all of us are typing this in our free time, trying to help (don't know about the GIANTS employees though). |

| Hi, eventually it would be an idea to define a new type of attacherJoint for your attachments and create the tools as plain implements. This way the player does not have to drive to the workshop to change the attachments. The player could just drop the attachments/implements wherever wanted. Cheers, Emil |

| The reason why I was curious about dynamically loading parts explained. Step1 pick truck step2 Engine Size Step3 Frame Length dependent upon sleeper size 36",48" or 60" and body 5th wheel, wrecker, hkl or AR/Frame Step4 How many axles. again that would depend on the bed u picked Step5 Dynamic Parts XML files would be loaded for animation and movement and point to i3d's On the left we have 15 regular mods. If we could load dynamically we only need 6 mods mod 1 HKL MAN mod1 Dynamically Loaded Addons Sleepers, HKL, AR/Frame, Wrecker & WinchTruck mod 2 HKL Tatra mod2 Truck Man mod 3 HKL Barrel mod3 Truck Tatra mod 4 48"Sleeper Twinstar mod4 Truck Barrel Mod 5 36"Sleeper KW T800 mod5 Truck Twinstar mod 6 WinchTruck MAN mod6 Truck KW T800 mod 7 Wrecker Tatra mod 8 AR/Frame Barrel mod 9 Wrecker Twinstar mod10 AR/Frame KW T800 mod11 Truck MAN mod12 Truck Tatra mod13 Truck Barrel mod14 Truck Twinstar mod15 Truck KW T800 |
