Sample Mod by the Game: Overview

Both Expeditions and SnowRunner allow you generate a sample mod of the truck using the game itself.

After generation, you can use this sample mod as a basis for your modding experiments, to study structure of the necessary files and folders, XML files, meshes in FBX, and relations between different mod parts.

This tutorial provides step-by-step instructions on generation of this mod using either Expeditions or SnowRunner, since this process is similar in both games.
