Here's a little tractor fresh from the repair shop. It may look familiar! It's yet another incarnation of Giants Lizard 442...or as we call it, the International 453.
I've fixed any errors reported in my log and implemented some features that were missing. I did some texture work too...trying to correct the colours etc. but I'm no artist so apologies if the tones are off or whatever.
Please note, I can not hear, so the sounds are really an unknown. I think they work ok but can't say for sure. Also, the actual sound may or may not be appropriate for the tractor, I have no way of knowing. Please let me know of any irregularities and I will try to address them.
*************************************************************************************************************************************************************
Features:
-error free

-dirt, grime, patina and sun fade on the skin (but doesn't get dirty and is not washable)

-useful new camera views
-40 km/h maximum speed
-cost-purchase-$5750 (not bad for a good running used 453 right?)
-cost-maintenence-$20/day

Notes:
If you prefer the standard 2 cameras, there are instructions on how to easily revert to the 2 cameras...see 'xInstructions_Change_Cameras.txt' located within the zip.
You might have noticed the * up there beside 'lights'? So ummm, ya...the signal and brake lights don't work. Truth is, there are still a couple of very
minor (IMO) niggly issues...the lights, and the 3 point hitch animation is not quite 100%. I'd like to fix those up but I've spent a lot of time on this
already and I need a break. Seems plausible there might be an electrical short somewhere in a 40 something year old tractor. :) I might come back to it, or
I might not, so it is what it is. Maybe someone wants to have a go at any known issues. If so, be my guest...just read the 'Important' stuff above one more
time...
Hope you can have some fun with it...EZP

Hat jemand noch des problem das der keine maschinen an der Heckhydraulik anheben kann weil der Oberlenker zu kurz ist?
super mod thx,expected in other.
Fantastic Mod, However I do have one small susgestion. Prehaps maybe working indicators in the next version. :)
da ich selber einen ihc fahre, kann ich sagen überarbeite bitte mal die heckhydraulik und pass die den originalen an, die geht ja gar nicht textur ist gut 3/5 sterne
Naja, an sich sieht die doch ganz akzeptabel aus... Der Oberlenker steht halt so bescheiden. Es gab mal ne Option, dass der Oberlenker ausgeblendet ist - solange bis man was dranhängt. Vllt wäre das ne Möglichkeit für diesen Traktor.
Looks ok to me but 40 km/h is too much. It should run about 29 km/h at full speed ;) But I really appreciate your work cause there is much too less stuff for an oldtimer- farm.... you know, 1000 version of an New Holland T8. but just 10 oldtimer...
That's because most people seem to like the large vehicles more. Actually, I also prefer the HP range from 40-200PS max right now. I also ported an IHC 423 to LS 15 with a small sprayer which I use right now.
I did not know an appropriate top speed for this tractor...40 km/h sounded reasonable so I didn't research it. I've made a note to adjust.
It`s nice to see someone converting these tractors, BUT I won`t use it for 2 reasons only: Not washable is ok for me, the skin on this mod allows that, however, there should be washable tires, and the second reason is because of the static farmer character, in FS15 there is an animated farmer, and I think that should be used instead of the poorer FS13 version.
Well, as I say in the notes, 'be my guest'. I'm 30+ hours with just what I've done. It's true, I am learning as I go, and with very little in the way of tutorials, guides, what have you...other than scouring forums and comparing different files with trial and error. Everything is You Tube these days...which doesn't work for me for obvious reasons. My next planned phase was going to include the animated driver and possibly washable tires if I can get permission to use some nice ones. If it works out, there will be an update.
Sorry the initial download had a typo in one of the xml files. Is now fixed in the V1.1. EZP
Ganz nett aber im moment für Leute die nichts reperieren können nicht zu gebrauchen. Den ohne Überrollbügel kann man erst gar nicht kaufen und fehler schreibt das Spiel auch eine menge hier mal ein paar auszüge davon, Error: C:/Users/Louso/Documents/My Games/FarmingSimulator2015/mods//IHC_453/International_453.xml(39).

Die Fehler sind halb so wild. Er hat sich in der xml wohl nur mal ein wenig verhaspelt und einen EndTag nicht richtig geschlossen. Habe ein Bild hinzugefügt, das Zeigt wie es aussehen muss
