So, the open-def files have .sii files that you take and put into the folder with the name of your truck (and you get the truck's name from its def file). And with that folder with your truck's name and the .sii file of the engine you want it to use, it is able to pull from an encrypted archive (or whatever these modders do to hide people from accessing the .ogg files they use to create their sounds) and load up that engine for that specific truck you want.
I just saw a 3min video that was st8 forward and way to simple/easy and it works I was trying to follow this for a while now and sorry ftg you made this longer then it had it be lmao😂💀 still good video man keep it up!
Maybe you can help me with correct working Peterbilt 3xx interior sound/effects by Zee in my Pete 352? Not hear any sound effects when i try to using it... For example Kw w9xx from Zee is working fine for me
Under normal circumstances I’d say I’m not doing something special but I’m really not. You would need to direct that question to him or his discord for support.
so i downloaded a zee mods engine sound pack and want to use it for default trucks, but im only seeing how to do it for modded trucks. the files arent showing up in my mod manager. what do I do?
Hello! What about the Zeemods Interior packs? How does that work? I dont see any open def for the interior packs.. Does it link only if you use their engines or how does it work?
Unless something is changed the interior packs are already set. There is no open death to add other trucks to the interior pack. To check compatibility you’ll have to go to zeemods website and check which trucks are available for which interior pack you wish to have. The only thing the open their folders allow you to do is make the engines themselves compatible with multiple trucks.
Every time I try to download the "kriechbaums free sound pack for ATS", it only downloads it as an .SCS file and not as a .WAR file to extract and pick out sounds. Is there a way to find the internal pieces of the .SCS file to locate the sound files to use on TMP?
Do you have to do this for each truck? I've done it for two trucks and it works fine but I'm wondering if I can just add the trucks to each engine def ?
Which Zeemod engine for ATS do you think is the best sounding turbo? Also what audio settings do you use? I followed Zeemods sound levels but they are distorting at high RPM :(
If you want a GREAT free mod with outstanding sounds, check out the FLD by Harven. The Cat 3406B 525 is incredible considering its free. You may also want to check out "Mortal's M11 sounds" ua-cam.com/video/N-yUGDSgOmM/v-deo.html
i did exactly what you did and now i cant get in my zeemod engine file cause it says damaged or unknown i tried other videos way to fix that error but it doesnt work you probably just broke my new file and every time i reinstall it it comes back in the same packed file and i cant unpack it
i tried adding RTA Kenworth T908 to Big Cam Cummins from Zee mods. the game loads and i can select the engine, but there’s no sound at all. and also no logo on the engine when purchasing. can anyone help please??
So you can most definitely add engine compatibility to payware trucks. IT's just not a newbie thing to be trying. You basically only have to know the official naming of the truck to add it to most any of the engine packs.
Hello friend, thanks for teaching us how to place the sounds, could you pass me the link of your peterbilt truck or the page where you bought it please bro
I downloaded the new Volvo dlc pack and for some reason all I have in the freight market is tires? Also how do you try out the beta convoy mode with mods? Does it automatically download to it?
Hello, Im new to the game. Im not good at computers either. I checked the steam websitem it says if you subscribe you can get sounds etc. But when i get on the game on the dlc content it says active . The question is i cant use this items what am I doing wrong or what steps am I missimg it also happens with new trucks I tried to have. Thanks.
how do u add more than 1 truck cause i added one truck but the truck name folder is now gone and not sure how to add more than one to a zee mods engine sound
just copy the folder and rename it. That's all you have to do. I think I have like 5 or 6 truck folders in that open def file. all copies of one another.
you can use winrar to change it, but you theoretically can just change the .zip to .scs but they are the same in the eyes of scs. They will still work the same.
Tried adding blades western star 4900 to zeemods c16, followed your video step by step. My def files are zip files. I added the truck name to the file like you did, only thing is, it stayed a zip file and I couldn’t get it to work. 🤷🏼♂️ maybe I missed something.
I've added that engine to it so I'm not really sure what you did, but double check the folder structure and make sure it's correct. I know that it works though as I've done it.
Hey FTG. Just curious and just getting started with PC gaming. Is there any way without serious modding. That I could add HP to one of zeemods engines?
you shouldnt need anymore horse power with proper trans and rear end ratio. I used the Detroit Diesel 500 with a 13 speed and a 1.79 rear end and i can haul the big oversized loads like butter
Hi all. i hope somebody can help me. i bought Zeemods the sound pack Cat c16 and i want to add it to the default kenworth w900 in ats i have watched the video a million times and stil i dont understand how you add the def files to be a mod or the get it to a scs. CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME. Im from Namibia.
The default kenworth already works with the C16 by default. When you go back to buy that mod, there is a hyperlink that you click that will tell you what trucks they're compatible out of the box with. This video is for adding compatibility with trucks that by default are not compatible.
@@FullTilledGaming Thank you for the fast reply. Is there a way you can help me so i can add the sound to the game i dont understand the def files how you add them to ats to use the sound or to get in your mod folder. if there is any possible way.
So if you already have zeemod sound in mod folder in your mod folder you have to pull to desktop to add sounds to trucks and than put zeemod back in your mods folder am I right
@@davinkirksey463 I just demonstrated it that way so you can keep up with it more but you can do that straight out of the mods folder if you’re comfortable.
Tried to get the DD60 14L from Zeemods to work with the FLC (BSA Revision) but I just get crashed even with the Open DEF done right, thanks anyway will help in the future for other things I'm sure :)
Doesn't work, was recommended this video, and it resulted in no change at all to my problems with getting engine functionality. Clearly something has changed in recent updates to prevent this type of modification.
Man thanks for this video! I got the Zeemod engine packs and wanted to use them with the Rezbilt 389 and now I can. Thanks again!
Hay did u manage to get the c16 to work on this truck I've try heaps of ways but still can't get it too show up in game

How did you get the 3xx interior sounds to work on ksw 352
Excellent question I would like to add my ksw 352 to some nice interior mods like zee's pete or the free interior noies
Thanks to you. I finally learned how to install engines. Everything works.
Zeemods instructions state the Sii files need to be renamed as well to the correct truck name.
So that is not necessary/doesn't make a difference?

Is this compatible with pinga’s w900?
Good video , I have a question can I add a slammed chassis like this also to a truck I want?
I have zee mods and there is no engine sound.. do you know what is wrong?
i can buy zeemods engine but there is no sound, do you know what is wrong?
so i downloaded a zee mods engine sound pack and want to use it for default trucks, but im only seeing how to do it for modded trucks. the files arent showing up in my mod manager. what do I do?
Did you ever figure out how to add the audio to a base game truck?
This didn't work for me. Wanted JCs engine pack for the Jasper DAF 2021 and it didn't work
Is this how you also add parts to other trucks as well. Need to add some light and horn files to another mod and can't figure out how

Thanks! Very clear video, now is easy change engines on my truck!
What if the truck is a default SCS truck from the base game and there is no def file for it?
Every time I try to download the "kriechbaums free sound pack for ATS", it only downloads it as an .SCS file and not as a .WAR file to extract and pick out sounds. Is there a way to find the internal pieces of the .SCS file to locate the sound files to use on TMP?
One Question Is zeemods install safe
It worked, but now I have no cab sounds, no air brakes, no turn signal, no nothing. Any suggestions?
Do you have to do this for each truck? I've done it for two trucks and it works fine but I'm wondering if I can just add the trucks to each engine def ?
I changed Winrar to my default app and now it says "the archive is either in unknown format or damaged". Cant open it at all now.
some of the zips are protected now and the modders are locking them down. Some it will work and some it won't
Which Zeemod engine for ATS do you think is the best sounding turbo? Also what audio settings do you use? I followed Zeemods sound levels but they are distorting at high RPM :(

@@FullTilledGaming Well, the problem is i cant open the truck file, bcs it is locked
Just the video we needed🙏🏻👌🏻 nice job ftg
Glad I could help
Hello friend, thanks for teaching us how to place the sounds, could you pass me the link of your peterbilt truck or the page where you bought it please bro
I know this video is old but Zee has released an open def editor. You just need the small app and the truck name.
i cant get the zip file to be a scs file i am not on a fresh install of winrar
it doesn't have to be. You can leave it zipped up and it will still read.
How do you add more than one truck to the open def folder do you just copy the folder and rename it?
yep
Are you doing a vid for KSW's light pack? There are no folders for trucks in his open def.
Yes I will once he publishes it. It isn’t released yet but he will be releasing soon
I downloaded the new Volvo dlc pack and for some reason all I have in the freight market is tires? Also how do you try out the beta convoy mode with mods? Does it automatically download to it?
as for the dlc pack.. sleep and it usually resets the economy. As for the beta stuff, I'm working on the video for that now

Is this easy to do to Harvens hx520?
yes as long as you know the truck def. name or know how to get to it in your steam workshop mod content.
