Euro Truck Simulator 2

[Red Firecracker]

I think it's part of the 'Operation Stack' DLC. You sit on the M20 and keep pressing 'Enter' to continually driver rest.

Anyone use the multiplayer mod?

yes, It's really quite fun!

Had a quick go at this again last night, noticed there's been yet another update. Okay that means my truck/cargo was reset back to base but have to say it's nice they keep updating the game long after release, often making little improvements like the way you can change gear now without it cancelling the cruise control

I've been changing gear without affecting the cruise control for ages. God, I hope the load I was driving wasn't worth lots, I haven't played in a while and that would make me grumpy.

I've just starting playing this and loving it. Where is the best place to get mods and what would people put at the top of their list?

Don't think I've played it much if at all this year, so probably not surprising Yeah I tend to have a habit of saving/quitting mid way through a delivery, which is a bit of a PITA...

I'm using some of the 'JazzyCat' mods for extra trailers and AI cars/trucks/buses etc., otherwise running stock.

Been playing this alot, got quite far then made the mistake of updating to 1.20.x and it threw a wobbly with all my mods. So have started again in 1.19.x flavour.

Most of the mods have been upgraded to the latest version but can anyone tell me if they are running the following mods in 1.20.x without issue?

They are the only things holding me back from reupdating. All 3 say they are updated to 1.19.x only.

- Scania RJL v1.4
- Scania T v1.7
- Scania R2008 v3.1

Here is a picture from my restarted file... Volvo all the way this time:



Thanks

Nice.

Dawn and dusk are such great times to get a nice shot.

Agreed always hammering F10 when the sun is going down/coming up, upgrading my graphic's card next month so will be able to run in ultra at full resolution rather than high in 1280 x 800

Anyone with any comment on the Scania mods please?

Gotta love those sun-shafts. Put my new graphics card in along with all my mods and my new file means I'm now ready to buy my first truck (for the 3rd time)! Scania or DAF?

Is there a 'coach' mod to this game? Where you can drive a coach, collect and drop off passengers etc?

I'm a sucker for some sun-shafts.

But I also like it at night too.

Are you on ultra? I seem to be only be able to get high on 1980x1052 (iirc) otherwise it stutters abit. Think I'm going to have to play with the settings of my graphics card some more

[mp3manager]

Yeah everything is on max settings on a GTX 980 at 2560x1440 144hz on a G-Sync monitor and it's ultra smooth with no lag or stutter.

Can't wait for American Truck Simulator.

How are you guys getting screenshots? I've tried taking screenshots in-game before but it's hard positioning the camera and all the HUD elements remain, probably doing it wrong...

[mp3manager]

When I'm playing, I press ESC, then go into Photo Studio on the right of the profile screen and use WASD keys to move around the screen to position the camera and apply any effects, such as Field Of View etc...

[TommoAE86]

Sometimes if I cba messing around with the photo system and the outside view is good enough I'll hit F2 to get rid of all the extra mirrors, then it's F3 to remove the sat nav.

The photo mode is quite good as these things go, on WorldofTrucks there are some epic pictures to browse, especially if you go through the editor's picks section.
