Maja's Decal Pack expands the selection of vehicle decals, introducing high-resolution logos, liveries, and alphabet letters for more customization. The initial release includes some of the largest logistics and transport companies in Europe, with plans to add more in future updates.

New additional decals v1:
  • 26 modern English alphabet letter decals
  • 45 decals featuring logos of 36 of Europe’s biggest logistics and transport organizations in 2K resolution
Updates in v2:
  • Over 30 tuning and car part-related brands, such as BILSTEIN, Pirelli, and Brembo, along with well-known sponsors like Monster and Red Bull.
  • 17 new decals featuring several major fuel and gas companies, as well as globally recognized brands like Coca-Cola and Pepsi.
  • Two colorable gradients that transition from full color to transparent.
  • In total this pack adds 117 new additional decals!

NEW Optional decal draw distance patch - 25.04: Universal update for 0.7.13, 0.7.12, all past and future game updates.
By default the games decal layer is set show for only a short distance from the vehicle. Now you can change that distance by a lot, up to 450m from the vehicle. An example can be seen in the images tab. Standalone patch files can be found in the Optional Files category. See what works for you the best. 0.7.1x files work for all game versions, no longer need to wait for new updates each game hotfix.

Included Brands and Companies
ALPINE, Amazon (2 decals), BILSTEIN, Bolloré, Borla, BP (2 Decals), Brembo, Bring (2 decals), Castro, Ceva, Chevron, Chmitz Cargobull, Circle K (2 Decals), Coca Cola (3 Decals), ColliCare, Dachser, DB Schenker, DFDS, DHL, DPD, DSV, ENKEI, Evergreen, Ewals Cargo Care, ExXon, FERCAM, Freja, Gebrüder Weiss, Gefco, Geodis, Gulf, Hellmann (2 decals), H.Essers, HKS, HOONIGAN, Imperial Logistics, Kenwood, KN, KONIG, KRONE, Kuehne + Nagel, LKW Walter (2 decals), Mainfreight, Marlboro, Martini, MOMO, Monster (2 decals), Norbert Dentressangle, Nordic Transport Group, NOS, OZ Racing, P&O Ferrymasters (5 decals), Pepsi, Pioneer, Pirelli, PostNord, Red Bull (3 Decals), Rhenus, Samskip, Schmitz Cargobull, Shell (2 Decals), Simon Loos, SPARCO, Target (2 Decals), TIP, TOYO TIRES, UPS, Waberer’s (2 decals), Walmart, WRC, XPO, Yusen.

Planned decals and features:
  • User-suggested logos, brands and liveries
  • Highest decal quality regardless of what Texture setting is used - Coming in v3
  • Additional decals for major logistics and transport companies from America and Asia
  • 11 brand emblems for popular truck brands used in Europe are ready for a update (DAF, Ford, IVECO, KAMAZ, MAN (x2), Mercedes, Renault, Scania, Tatra, Volvo)
  • Popular truck brands from other continents (Kenworth, Mack, International, Daewoo, Hyundai,  etc.)
  • Gradients - 2 already added in v2
  • File size reduced by approximately 50-75%. The compressed archive is 2MB, but the .pak file itself is nearly 200MB due to how Unreal Engine "compresses" textures. The letter decals are 512x512, resulting in 341KB each, even though the raw .png files are only 2KB-8KB. The brand decals are 2048x2048, increasing to 5.33MB each after being imported into Unreal Engine, despite the raw .png files averaging 100KB. The plan is to cut off the blank space above and below the decals so they can for example be 512x2048. That would reduce the unreal asset file by 75% This works and reduces the filesize from 200 to 75MB but either UE or the decal system of the game demands the decals to be square. Rectangular decals got stretched out into a square. In future updates some decals will be 512px, some 1024px and wide decals will be 2048px to preserve the detail.

Mod Incompatibilities
  • Compatible with the exclusive Protect The Sink decal pack if the compatibility file is downloaded from the Optional Files.
  • Incompatible with any mod that adds new decals (currently, this is the only one on the Nexus)

Save Incompatibilities
  • If a vehicle has these new decals and the mod is removed, the decals will be replaced with blank squares.
  • To ensure the safety of your saves, create a backup of your save folder:
    • %localappdata%\MotorTown\Saved\SaveGames
    • C:\Users\_____your_user____\AppData\Local\MotorTown\Saved\SaveGames

Multiplayer Compatibility
  • If the host does not have the mod, only you will see the new decals.
  • Players with the mod installed will see all decals properly.
  • Uploading to the workshop is possible, but additional decals introduced by this mod will only be visible to players who also have the mod installed.

Game version Compatibility
  • Decal Draw Distance fixes are updated for 0.7.13. 0.7.12 version can be found under Old Files.
  • Decals are made for 0.7.12 and 0.7.13 and should work for future releases as long as there are no new official decals. 

Installation
  • Download from the Files page, open or extract the ZIP archive.
  • Place "MajasDecalPackV*_P.pak" in 
  • Steam\steamapps\common\Motor Town\MotorTown\Content\Paks
  • You should now have two .paks in the folder. MotorTown-Windows.pak and MajasDecalPackV*_P.pak

Updates
  • Replace "MajasDecalPackV1_P.pak" with "MajasDecalPackV2_P.pak"
  • Users using V1 will not see the new decals featured in V2 that other users may be using.
  • Users using V2 will see both V2 and V1 decals.

Uninstall

  • Remove "MajasDecalPackV*_P.pak" from
  • Steam\steamapps\common\Motor Town\MotorTown\Content\Paks
  • Drive to a garage/service and delete the blank decals to free up the slots.

Known Issues
  • Decals disappear (culling) when the player moves away from the vehicle. Download the optional draw distance patch from Optional Files. By default the decals are set to display only on the highest vehicle LOD model and it's set to a few steps away from the vehicle. There is minimal to no difference in the LOD models on these vehicles. I've increased the LOD distances.
  • Decals appear low resolution or pixelated. Download the draw distance patch from optional files or wait for V3. It will have a forced max resolution of 2048px, it will only affect the decals.
    Otherwise you can change this in the texture settings. On Low, decals are limited to 512px, while Mid increases them to 1024px. For the best quality, use High, Ultra, or Cinematic, where the resolution is set to 2048px.
