- Find the mod’s texture folder (usually Textures or Mat).
- Locate the base diffuse/albedo texture for the bus body.
- Open in an image editor (GIMP/Photoshop) at original resolution; keep alpha if present.
- Edit colors/decals on separate layers; preserve edge seams if UVs are shown.

- Refresh game (or restart) and select the new skin if the mod supports skins.

- Reduce high-poly details on exterior unseen at distance; rely on LODs.
- Use compressed textures and mipmaps; avoid excessively large DDS files.
- Limit runtime particle emitters and dynamic lights inside.
- Test with AI buses and full passenger loads to catch frame drops; profile using OMSI’s debug output.
- Vehicle mass: 12,000–13,000 kg (12–18m coach/bus variants vary)
- Max speed limiter: 80–100 km/h (regional limits)
- Idle RPM: 650–800; redline: 2200–2600 (diesel coach engines)
- Gearboxes: 6–8 speed automatic with retarders for water braking if modeled
OMSI 2 Yutong
As of 2025, the modding scene is growing faster than ever. While purists might argue that "OMSI is for German buses," the realism of the scripts and the quality of the 3D models in Yutong mods rival—and often surpass—the official DLC. To effectively use a Yutong bus in OMSI

- Replace or add realistic liveries (create 2048×2048 or 4096×4096 textures; maintain alpha where needed).
- Swap or enhance engine sounds (use multi-sample looping for continuity).
- Upgrade dashboard/panel to 3D instrument cluster (if mod includes panel.cfg support).
- Add animated elements: functional mirrors, kneeling suspension, working stop-request lights.
- Localize interior text (add language-specific .txt or .sco files).
