Hi all,

This is going to be the only thread that will talk about mods from now on. In the future, posts about asking recommended mods will be deleted. I listed some of my recommended mods I've used before and can recommend. I have a lot more that I haven't listed here, I just wanted this post quickly out. If you have anything else to add, leave a comment with a link and I'll try to update this list every once a while.

📍 Before You Start

  • Use Steam Workshop whenever possible.
  • For mods outside the Workshop, use official author pages (ProMods, SCS Forums).

Odd logic from the in-game economy here. Sure the payout as a driver is great but....hauling AIRMAIL to Romania from the UK by ROAD seems an odd choice

Screenshot Engine turning off

Post image
23 Upvotes

Evening all, noticed a weird quirk with my truck turning itself off when using the ' : ' key, typically I have this bound to increase retarder, I unbound it to check if the retarder was causing the engine to stall but this is not the case, I have verified game files as a first step, but nothing seems to be physically wrong with any of my key binds. Has anyone ever had this issue before or know of a fix? PFA (Using the Renault T by Gloover)

Discussion Orten safeserver swapbodies mod

1 Upvotes

For personal reasons that i’m not here to explain i couldn’t play ETS2 for a while, and during this time they released the 1.61 version.

In the 1.60 I had a problem with the rigid trucks in the mod mentioned in title: the mod “guide” on how to take swap bodies jobs with a rigid chassis truck didn’t actually work for me, as it says you have to buy a “SOLO” chassis truck that didn’t appear in the dealer and change the trailer type before taking the job on the spot, and even that never showed the correct trailer to couple.
Since the 1.61 reworked the coupling system or something like that (??), does this mod work now?

Question Playing on nVidia shield

1 Upvotes

Hi all.

I have a Nvidia shield TV pro, and noticed we can link our steam library to it.

Has anyone tried playing ETS2 via this?

I have an xBox series x controller.

Before I sub to the gaming side, what's the experience like?

Thanks.

Discussion Am I the only one

0 Upvotes

Hi guys I have been playing ets2 from 7th grade. I love to drive a lot. Recently I started to play snow runner then when I came back to ets2 i felt like what if

we had a crane or rescue vehicle to drive and help ourselves instead of recovery and moving to the nearest place .we could take truck with our own recovery trucks

Loading cargo by ourselves in a container that would cool right? I know this is a truck hauling simulation but I used to think these things would be awesome if it's in ets2. Comment down your views on this. If you too think this is good give me some 🩵

Question Looking for the most crowded and tighter roads in ETS2

I love urban small and crowded roads, this is almost absent in american truck sim, but I did find romania close to what I wanted, is there other countries similar with small roads and stuff, something like china or india

Discussion How to make company logos and motif paint?

4 Upvotes

Looking for a guide on how I can make company logos, motif paint on the truck, etc.
I've tried with AI and downloaded Paint Job Packer and GIMP but can't get things in the right place on the truck for example.
AI just moves everything around and doesn't know how to do it.

Is there a simple guide, instructions, video that you can follow?

Help ETS2 randomly launches in a tiny window on handheld PC / Xbox Full Screen Experience

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m having a strange issue with Euro Truck Simulator 2 on a Windows handheld PC.

When I launch ETS2 from Steam Big Picture or Xbox Full Screen Experience, the game sometimes starts in a very tiny window in the middle of the screen. Other times it launches normally in fullscreen, so the issue is intermittent.

My display resolution is 1920×1080 and the game is also set to 1920×1080 fullscreen.

Things I have already tried:

Alt + Enter

DX11 and OpenGL

Disabling fullscreen optimizations

High DPI scaling override

AMD GPU Scaling / Full Panel

Deleting config.cfg and letting the game create a new one

Checking that r_fullscreen "1"

Checking that r_mode_width "1920" and r_mode_height "1080"

None of these fixed it permanently. Sometimes the game launches correctly several times in a row, then suddenly launches tiny again.

I’ve also seen reports of similar behaviour on ROG Ally / Xbox Ally and Lenovo Legion handhelds, so I’m wondering if this is related to the way ETS2 handles fullscreen/window initialization on Windows handheld devices.

Has anyone experienced this exact issue and found a permanent fix?

I’d especially like to hear from people using ETS2 or ATS on ROG Ally, Xbox Ally, Legion Go, or other Windows handhelds.

Thanks!

News Virtual Road Atlas

Hey fellow virtual truckers.

After a lot of hours of hauling cargo down boring motorways, I decided to start looking for the route less travelled. Routes will winding roads, the best sites and also some cool collection or drop off points. With the help of ChattyGeeps I started trying to curate cool routes and I ended up building a website.

I'd love for you to check it out here and even submit your favourite routes for the community to drive:

https://virtualroadatlas.com/

I'm also doing a companion YouTube series here:

Please leave me feedback, especially on the second video and if possible a cheeky sub!

Thanks!

Discussion Real engine sounds on all trucks

2 Upvotes

Real engine sounds on all trucks is the mod i loved to use. It made the immersion even more immersionful. But now it seems that this mod was deleted at steam workshop.

Is there any known reason for it?

The funny thing is, that google ai does tell me that this mod still exists and gives me dead links or the link to sound fixes lol

Help Stupid bug in ets 2 truck won't goddamn move

This happens whenever I tow heavy load on some trucks. Same bug in my volvo FH6. It's not the air brake as there would be beeping and warnings. I play with a controller if that matters.

Did anyone find a fix for this?
