Color Overhaul for Autos and Trucks (C.O.A.T) v1.0 for ATS

C.O.A.T. (Color Overhaul for Autos and Trucks) is a visual mod for American Truck Simulator that reworks vehicle colors and spawn ratios across the entire game world. Vanilla traffic often looks overly saturated and arcade-like, so the author rebuilt the palettes using data from 2015–2027. The mod covers both active AI traffic and static parked vehicles at rest stops, residential areas and industrial lots. The project branched from the realism-focused SGSB pack and pairs well with it.

• 38 custom RGB definitions split into commuter, executive and utility demographics.
• Realistic spawn ratios dominated by Fleet White, Standard Silver, Magnetic Gray and Charcoal.
• Dedicated palettes for Freightliner, Kenworth, Mack, Peterbilt, Volvo and Western Star AI trucks.
• Ultra-rare vintage shades such as the 1970 Dodge Plum Crazy Purple and 1988 Ford Mustang Cabernet Red.
• New .dds textures for static world geometry replace the vanilla color maps.
Load C.O.A.T. above other traffic mods in your mod manager so its definitions override the defaults.
