🅿️The Rest Area — Spring Greetings, Storefront News, and Project Updates

Hello everyone,

First of all, we’d like to wish you all a very Happy Easter! Whether you celebrate the holiday or simply take the opportunity to rest and enjoy the arrival of spring, we hope this season brings you peace, joy, and renewed energy. For us here at O.7 Studio, it's always a moment to reflect, regroup, and push forward with new inspiration—and that’s exactly what we’ve been up to.

Over the past weeks, we’ve been evaluating alternative storefront platforms as part of our efforts to future-proof our mod distribution system. After a detailed review of various services, we’ve decided to move forward with Payhip instead of Ko-Fi. The deciding factor was how closely Payhip’s storefront system mirrors the structure and layout of Gumroad, which allows for a smoother transition and better experience for both us and our supporters. We’re currently setting everything up, and we’ll share more information soon regarding how and when our products will be available there.

Now, onto something unexpected but very exciting—the surprise release of the SCS Kenworth W900 Legacy Edition, featuring the new 72-inch Flat Roof Sleeper Cabin. We didn’t see this one coming, and it definitely threw a curveball our way! This new addition will require us to update all existing W900L skins to properly support the new cabin configuration. Given the volume of skins we’ve produced, this will take a considerable amount of work. To ensure these updates are completed as quickly and efficiently as possible, we've decided to pause all other ongoing projects temporarily. Your patience and understanding mean the world to us as we work through this.

Lastly, we wanted to share a quick note on our team’s current health status. Unfortunately, some of our members were recently hit hard by a combination of Influenza and Pneumonia, and they're currently recovering and taking the necessary time to heal. As a result, our production speed has been affected. We wish them a full and speedy recovery and extend a heartfelt reminder to all of you: take care of yourselves. Health comes first—always.

Thank you for being with us through every bump in the road and every turn of the wheel. We’ll continue to keep you updated as we move forward, and as always, we appreciate your ongoing support.

— The O.7 Studio Team

⚠️ Temporary Sales Pause Due to Gumroad Payment Issues

 Hey everyone,

We want to be fully transparent with you about an issue we’re currently facing with Gumroad. Unfortunately, the platform is experiencing problems with processing payouts, meaning the funds from our recent sales haven’t been properly transferred to us.

Because of this, we've made the difficult decision to pause all sales through our Gumroad store until the issue is resolved. We've already contacted their support team, but as of now, there’s no clear timeline for when this will be fixed.

In light of this, we're actively exploring alternative platforms to ensure continued access to our products and a more stable purchasing experience for everyone. Our first move will be to open a Ko-Fi shop, with other storefronts to follow shortly.

We deeply appreciate your understanding and support during this time. If you’ve made a purchase recently and have concerns, feel free to contact us directly—we’re here to help. We’ll post updates as soon as we have more information.

Thank you for sticking with us—and as always, happy trucking!

W900 Heritage Collection: Phase 1 Complete!

Several months ago, during a casual conversation among friends, the idea of reproducing iconic Kenworth Paint Schemes for American Truck Simulator was born. Little did we know, this endeavor would lead us down a rabbit hole of unexpected proportions. Months were spent meticulously researching, scouring through archives, and hunting down historical photographs in pursuit of more than just a handful of catalog images. After amassing a substantial collection of materials, we have finally reached a milestone where we are proud to unveil the culmination of our efforts!

Presenting the inaugural phase of the W900 Heritage Collection, featuring 63 meticulously crafted paint schemes and their variations. From renowned classics like the Seminole paint scheme to the more obscure ones such as the Laramie, each design has been meticulously recreated with an unwavering commitment to authenticity.

With the release of these paint schemes, we now turn our attention to future projects. However, the W900 Heritage Collection is far from complete. While this initial release encompasses a significant array of designs, there are still several noteworthy paint schemes that did not make the first cut. Rest assured, we are dedicated to continuously expanding the collection over time as we uncover additional historical references. Additionally, we have plans to introduce matching trailers for each skin—an endeavor that may progress gradually but promises to be immensely rewarding in the long run.

Embark on a journey through trucking history with the W900 Heritage Collection, available exclusively on our Gumroad page. Experience the nostalgia and authenticity of these iconic paint schemes as you traverse the virtual highways of American Truck Simulator. Join us in celebrating the rich heritage of Kenworth Trucks, and stay tuned for exciting updates and additions to the collection. Happy trucking!
