Attaching Carts and Trailers

This problem has been adressed here.[www.oovee.co.uk]

Facing the Garage helps with attaching trailers/carts.
What seems to work best is parking your truck like this:

What also is reported to work well is parking in such a way that the Nose is lower then the Rear.
That way if the cart spawns, there's no sand in the way.

The screenshots in that forum thread are not visible to users who are not logged in. Would it be possible to upload them here?

Thank you. It certainly helps, yet, I feel that this could be revamped sometime in the (near) future. I've been put almost 30 hours into the game and attaching these extensions is still very challenging.

One particularly annoying part was the garage near the volcano (on the now remade level).

Heres an idea for the trailers and carts, you pick the one you want use, then the trailer or cart appears in the garage, you reverse the truck to the trailer attach it and off you go.

You wait until the mod support update arrives that was announced for October[www.oovee.co.uk] early April pushed back a month[www.oovee.co.uk] from player standpoint mod support integration is finished and is now close to release[www.oovee.co.uk]. (It was said to be close to release back in October, but now there are screenshots[www.oovee.co.uk].)

I think you can go to the game library, rightclick on spintires, go to options or preferences, go to the beta tab and select the Legacy build.

Not 100% sure if still available as I havn't played for months, but that build should support mods. Then just go to youtube and find a mod installing tutorial. I think (username) LincArro had a good tut

Most people think there's absolutely no mod support but they are mistaken. It's just not as easy as it's gonna be in the future.

Unless those mods are designed for "stable", then they won't work with "legacy".
