Hey all, I'm excited to announce a new content pack that is currently in development for Ferd's FVTM mod. For those not familiar with FVTM, it's a content pack based vehicle mod for 1.12.2 and 1.20.1. Roughly 4 years ago I released the "Heavy Truck Pack" for 1.12.2, and I was finally able to get back into working on a new pack late last year.


Currently there are three different pickups with various cab/bed configurations, and an SUV.

2500HD-

-Regular cab long bed
-Extended cab short bed
-Crew cab short bed
-Extended cab long bed
-Crew cab long bed

3500HD-

-Regular cab dually
-Extended cab dually
-Crew cab dually

3500HD Chassis-

-Short/long chassis

Suburban 2500-

Three row SUV with seating for 7. Rear opening latch.

All trucks have headlights, blinkers, tail lights, and reverse lights. The dash also glows when the lights are on. The following are the controls-

Keyboard Controls:

W- Throttle up (down while reversing)
S- Throttle down (up while reversing)
A- Steer left
D- Steer right
[​space]- Brakes
R- Vehicle inventory/GUI
L- Light toggle. Cycles between off, low beams, high beams, and fog lights.

Hitbox Based Controls:
On top of the normal FVTM keybinds, the pickups have light controls that can be clicked on while in the driver's seat. Doors and the tailgate can all be opened by clicking the external door handle while outside of the vehicle, or internal handle while sitting in the seat closest to the door.



Accessories-

Hitches, toolboxes, racks, flatbeds, hitches, and bumpers can all be installed/removed. Currently included:

Steel Bumper- The normal front bumper can be uninstalled with the FVTM "Part Removal and Maintenance Toolbox".
Toolboxes- Installs in a pickup bed. No inventory yet due to it not being implemented in 1.20 FVTM.
Headache Racks- Installs on a pickup bed. Black and chrome options, and they have tail/reverse lights.
Flatbeds- Pickup bed must be uninstalled before install. Built in gooseneck hitch.
Lumber Racks- Installs on a pickup bed. Inventory for wood is planned.
Gooseneck Hitch- Installs in a pickup bed, used to tow a gooseneck or cattle trailer.
Hitches- There are three hitches currently, and they install below the rear bumper. "LD" hitches are used to tow small utility trailers, "HD" hitches are used to tow equipment and dump trailers, and "pintle" hitches are used to tow heavy duty pintle trailers.
Cab Lights- 3500HD trucks come with cab lights, but they can also be added to the 2500HD pickups.

The following bodies can be installed on the 3500HD chassis trucks-
Service Bodies- Service bodies have 6-8 bins and a slot for a rear hitch. When inventories are implemented in FVTM, each bin will have a seperate inventory to keep all of your items organized.
Stake Bodies- Stake bodies are a large flatbed to carry pallets or other cargo. There is also a slot for a rear hitch.
Contractor Body- Flatbed with toolboxes and stakes.
