Description

So, this is my semi-truck wheel and tire pack. The goal of this pack consists of multiple things.

Reducing ram use of my own mod trucks.
Allowing myself to easily reference this wheel pack and consistently have the same tires across multiple trucks. It also allows me to update multiple trucks with new tires simultanesouly.
Allow other modders to easily add my tires and wheels to their mods.

I’ve seen plenty of confusion and/or controversy surrounding MrBusses wheel pack. This pack WILL, in fact, reduce overall RAM use on consoles when a player uses multiple trucks that reference this wheel pack. How is that possible? Simple. The game loads ALL enabled mods at the same time when you launch a new session. These assets are all loaded into memory (aka RAM). By using a single tire pack, these tires are only loaded into memory once. When they were all contained in the trucks file, they would be loaded into memory every time a new truck was enabled. Over and over again, repeatedly.

If you use only one truck that uses this pack, there are 0 memory space savings. If you use two trucks however, the memory savings becomes 29mb less than having the tires in two truck mods. If you enable 3 trucks, the memory space saved is 58mb, which is basically a whole extra truck you can enable.

To utilize this pack within your own mod, use the following line of code. Adjust the offset values as necessary to fit your truck.

Tires Included In This Pack:
2 sets of Highway
2 sets Vintage WWII style
3 sets of Military style
2 sets of Heavy Off Road

Wheels Included In This Pack:
2 sets of Vintage (Dayton and Trillex)
4 sets of Alcoa style
1 set of Vintage WWII style
