Euro Truck Simulator 2

Well, in Extreme Trucker (from SCS aswell) you could drive these suckers. :)

I really need to play this again, suddenly it appeals to me again after not playing for at least a year. :)

I let a friend try it because he has a Rift DK2 and I read that it should be supported, apparently it has never worked.
 
Have been following this mod in a russian forum for a while, and finally it's here, my alltime favorite truck <3

Peterbilt 351



And this is what it looks like ingame with one of the trailers that's in this mod :)

It's 6,49 currently on steam (Midweek Madness) and if you can't afford a couple of bucks for a great game then I have no sympathy for you. ;)

Getting torrent links in this forum is something that will likely fail, sorry.
 
After playing vanilla for the better part of a year I finally decided to dive into the world of mods, specifically with Promods and Realistic Physics. Wow these make the game even better! The Promods map adds a lot of new scenery which is a nice break from the standard copy/paste that SCS uses for completely different regions.
 
I would also recommend Jazzy Cat's trailers and traffic packs. Adds some real companies and cars to the game that only adds to the experience. TSM Map is good too.

liking the speedlimit on the dash, now I can re-getridof the gps... now just got to get good mods that have interior nav's for MB & renault...


^if that makes no sense... I've been drinking.
whilst trucking too :):D
 
Anybody trying the 1.14 Beta? I gotta say, the new DAF looks great. The wood interior not so much, but there are interior mods out there that look a lot better. Nice to see the Jazzycats mods work on the beta.

You have a sufficient amount of headlamps on that thing, approved :thumbsup:
 
Wow that's a hell of a lot of updates! It's great to see them putting so much effort into the game, especially since they've been concentrating on ATS.

I love playing this game drunk. :lol:
 
The new patch might have broken my game; when I visit DAF dealer showroom, the game crashes, and when I go to sleep, the clock freezes for a good time before it starts moving
 
Update 1.15 just rolled out a couple of minutes ago.

Dunno if it's just me but even without mods it won't show any available loads/trailers, not even the symbols at the companies. Huh?! :lol:
 
For those that do not have it ETS 2 is ?3 on Steam today.
 
Anyone complete the Christmas challenge where you have to drive the equivalent distance from Prague to the North Pole? I think the challenge is what is causing a conflict in some trailer packs I have, which initially was why I wasn't getting any jobs when I first installed 1.15. The reward is a new paint scheme, looks nice.

I'm at 42% right now. Should be done later today :D

Also, because I only drive the big Scania 730 beasts, I just noticed they finally got the new sounds in. SO GOOD!
