trailer.krone.profiliner 17t
trailer.gooseneck.cargo20 19t
trailer.container 20t NEW TRAILER!

You can choose two mods normal or +20% heavier choose onle one of them
heaviest cargo is excavator 46t for heavy and 38t for normal version
and another

Played the demo of this on Friday.

Then most of yesterday.

Also this morning.

But I don't know why! It's insanely addictive but for no apparent reason whatsoever. I don't want to buy the full game because I think I'll spend way too much time on it, but I think I'm going to have to.

This is ridiculous.

I have spent the majority of today thinking up / working out the running of the 'business', researching trucks, and downloading / trying mods for the game.

I think I'm now about sorted biggrin

I've got two depots with 5 slots each, 10 drivers (inc. me), 10 new Volvos (apart from mine, which is my original one upgraded to the specs of the new ones).

All my drivers are rocking dark blue Volvo FH16s, with 820hp engines and i-shift gearboxes.

Here's mine:

This could get expensive. I'm running the demo on an old 2.0 duo processor, that gives me the basic graphics. But I want the whole hog, so on the lookout for a decent lappy to run it. Damn thread!

I didn't get on with the 1000hp mod for Scania or Volvo. Didn't feel right at all. The 820hp engine on the Volvo FH16 is about as good as it gets biggrin

Just upgraded to the 820hp FH16 and seem to have lost my 14 speed gearbox confused

You sad bds!

So.... just bought my first truck, a Renault, slow, bogo, why did i spend so long driving around Europe at 54 mph yesterday??

And Roadworks, everywhere!

And Range rover drivers swerving from lane to lane!

This might be the best game of the year so far.

Issues issues. My copy hasnt arrived still (promised 19th Feb by Amazon) so I ordered another off eBay last night, should be with my tomorrow. And whilst I was there, may have purchased a full wheel setup, and a wireless to laptop set up, and a longer HDMI cable so I can plug it into the 50" TV, and have the laptop tucked behind! Perfect!

I'm having the same issue with Amazon, still waiting...

In the meantime, been to the Scania dealer in Hannover, and whilst I know it's Euro Truck Simulator can't help but notice all the tractor units are cabovers.

Then I find this image in the screenshot thread....

Im finding myself spending a lot of time on this although Im not too far in. Bought some crappy MAN Truck with 320hp which usually ends up with me having some hefty queues behind me biggrin

Found out the hard way last night that you can actually start dozing off if you dont rest, caused a bit of a pile up.

Purchased via Steam on Friday night and I have to say this is the most pointless & mundane game I have ever played.

However, it is now Monday and I don't know where the weekend went. Why? How? WTF?

Bloody daft, yet strangely addictive game!

I really fancy giving this game a go but I have no idea about what will / wont work on my new computer. Do any of you play on an imac? I just ordered a 27inch one from the Apple store with the uprated graphics card and unpgraded i7 processor and though I have not bought it for games, I do fancy having a few simulator type games and things like the new Sim City coming out.

I've been reading their forum, and whilst having no clue about iMac the advice from the software house seems to be, download a demo and have a go, see if it works. It's the full game but only up to the first few levels. [unquote]
