Features:

-No Pre-defined Cargo

Forget about pre-defined cargo! You can load and transport almost any official and unofficial land vehicle. There is just a simple size-oriented limitation and that’s it. Other than this, the only major limitation is your imagination. The size limitation is that if your cargo is as long as the trailer you had better not to load it. Like in real life...

Not every vehicle (official or custom) has the same “centre valueâ€. Thus you’ll see that different vehicles which are loaded onto the trailer stand relatively some forward or back. Therefore, we incorporated two user menus; Lock Cargo and Lock Cargo (Forward). The latter is more suitable for big tanks and big vehicles. The other is more suitable for APC class vehicles and the rest.

-Better Towing

On previous version, trailer was sliding to right or left on sloping surfaces even when driver stops the truck. Now, if you stop the truck, then sliding stops as well. Thus, you can park on slopes from now on.

-Speed Limitation

Cargo reduces speed. Enhanced realism…

-Smart Reverse Flasher

When you go reverse by Franziska, flasher automatically turns on now. When you stop going reverse the system activates your previous light choice. Probably it’s the first time on Ofp.

-Better Ramp and Trailer Way

Now loading cargo over SLT56 is easier. Cargo doesn’t jump anymore.

-Various Improvements

•Improved scripting, skimping on CPU power.

•New signs on Franziska. SFOR and warning in Turkish.

•Two New SFX. Besides better balance between sounds.

•Certain improvements on models.

First of all, it's very simple for us to reset damage level of both the trailer and the cargo. Yet, this time, when the trailer or cargo are attacked, for example, they won't be affected anymore. This would reduce realism. If you demand this really, we can make some option.

Other than, this bug is inevitable to some level. However, to eliminate this;

- Prefer flat routes. You can observe where the terrain is less sloping. Using roads is also essential on sloping terrain. Driving very slower over slopes helps as well.

To minimize the damage;

-Always use roads on sloping terrain. Keep in midn that big tanks and vehicles are more likely to damage the trailer over sloping terrain.

Just some small nitpicking:

The Franziska.pbo is 24.7 MB big, that comes from the franziska.p3d, which is a whopping 18 megs!

I don't know how you managed to do this, but this comes from the fact, that the model is using the Animation-section of the P3D. So my suggestions is:

a)

Create a new empty P3D, and copy the LODs one for one into the new one.

or b)

You can download my replacetex-utility from my homepage (click on my WWW). It is a command line utility that replaces textures. You can just type in some texture that does not exist and it will fix your P3D (it will say something along "animations not supported"). It will create a new P3D that is as big as a).

Beside this, nice addon

18-24 megs when the usual hard drive these days is atleast 8 gigs -.o; Great addon,glad it has been updated and the properties of the cargo and sliding have been made better ^^

The Franziska.p3d is right now 17.5 MB big. With method a) (method 'b' somehow didn't work very good???) the size of the franziska.p3d can be reduced to 1.80 MB. That's about 10% of the original size.

Now imagine, that every addon would be 10 times as big as it really needed to be. All my addons-directories weight together 1.29 GB. Now multiply this with 10: 12.9 GB. I guess this is not what you want, do you?

We had already done your "a)". This doesn't reduce the size. The point is that we used PboX not MakePBO and prefered no compression for components. You know heavy compression causes lag. 18 MB is not whopping Most data files of games are really big and this is not problem as long as you have enough harddisk space. Here data flow rate is essential. Besides, glad to hear that you liked. thanks

Hi Gökhan,

you should know that I am one of the people who advertise no compression in addons. But nevertheless 18MB is very much for a model, that can be only 1.8 MB  

I've sent you a PM with the much much smaller Franziska.p3d.

Cheers

I have no problem to drive an 2A5 or 6 On the trailer and Lock it !

Works fine for me!!

[cbfasi 4]

Have had a small issue when fording, the loaded vehicle stays at the height above water, and doesn't follow the trailer bed down.. (tested with falk LVTP).

[Gökhan - OFP TURKISH UNION 0]

Cheers back

@vektorboson

Thanks. we examined the file you sent us. Yep, it's smaller. I guessed we somehow missed doing this way so. However it's just saving disk space at all. All right, we're gonna update it with a new version. The file you sent has different LOD values and this must be corrected though.

@themaster303

This must be related to land contacts of the leopard you mentioned. Some unofficial vehicles have "different" land contacts and this may be problem for the trailer. However official vehicles and most unofficial vehicles I've tested, have good land contacts and thus they work fine with the trailer. Mod makers may revise their land contacts easily for compatability issues.

Its download link is unable publicly, but will check with other publicly available items.

Just happens that the map I am working on has large fords, and as the transporter wont work on bridges its the only alternative, but the affects I think is like bridges and will just be a put up with it until they hopefully have this sort of issue sorted in ArmA.

Not a big deal, just wasnt sure if you knew

[ATC Rogue 0]

I downloaded this today and I must say it's superb. I tested it in multiplayer and got some bugs so I thought I'd let you know. I think it's possible out of sync somehow because the back part of the trailer once connected kept slipping out of sync with the front part while driving along, at times it became completely seperated and almost drove itself in random directions. This all happened with empty trucks so I know it wasn't anything I added.
