I like RusMaps and Project Balkans (though Project Balkans isn't that big). But both RusMaps and Balkans work in conjunction with ProMods and add a much deeper world and both are excellently done...
okay..2 runs done on ETS, now to DL ATS demo. Thanks for posting this [heart]

I have a G27, it's beautiful
.I also have ETS2. There's something hypnotic about just losing yourself in the journey, it's easy to just slip into it and lose hours, especially when you're in VR!
Remember those huge long cruises I take in the Beluga? I do something similar in ETS2.How does Akureyri (IS) to Bratislava (SK) sound?
I've got the truck equivalent of an Anaconda, too

How come that screenshot looks so much better than mine?
I've even tried installing:-
- Promods Compatibility Addon for Realistic Graphics Mod
- Realistic Graphics Mod v1.7.9 for ETS 2
And I'm having trouble seeing any difference?

I'm running ETS2 with
* Going East DLC
* Scandinavia DLC
* Vive le France DLC
* Michelin DLC
* Scania Griffon DLC
* Cabin Accessories DLC
* Wheel Tuning Pack DLC
The only mod I have installed is Promods v217, no other mods are in use.
All the settings are turned up as high as they'll go, resolution is 1920x1080, capped at 60fps with vsync on.
Other than that, I don't know

That's Really Nice[heart]
Bought it too on Sale and it is surprisingly fun especially in VR.
Just bought my first truck yesterday, and can't wait to get home and haul some goods and make some money so I can upgrade my truck
And no worries about getting shot to pieces over stuff I got in the cargo
I'm driving around in Scandinavia with base in Aalborg

Play in VR? Ever grasp air reaching for the steering wheel? [yesnod]
I caught myself doing that more than once this last weekend.
My main problem with VR is an intermittent lag/surge issue. I have a strong system, but this happens even on the lowest graphics settings. I can play through it, but it is annoying (though not as annoying as the constant speed limit changes and the instant speeding fines).
I played ATS several days w/o a crash, and on my first job with my new truck, a delivery truck turns right into me like I wasn't there. Then I saw a live crash last night between two trucks pulling into a rest stop (pretty far ahead of me). Apparently one was stopped and the other plowed into him, causing his trailer to tumble into the air and the cab to spin off into the brush.
I'm really enjoying ATS, but I think I'll be ready to start exploring ETS2 by next weekend. ATS really needs to start rolling out the states a lot faster.

I also had som judder/lags and it seems to happen when Oculus Rift ASW kicked in, which it often did. Then I just cranked the SS or Scale which it was called in game, up to 200% which made the ASW being on all the time. Then there is no judder and the image much clearer.
Well that would be an interesting solution - increasing the graphics to get rid of a problem! I'll give it a go.
I run the game @64bit, not really for any reason other than I have 64bit, so why not..
Also find a nice physics mod like 'advance physics' by techkilla, its a nice mod. Others would be 'Sisl', '50k', 'realistic building lights', 'gates'... Well there are so many, just have a good look and mess around with them, you'll find what suits your game.
Main thing to remember, as with any pc game that gets updated often, some mods may/will stop working. Most good mods however are also updated quite often.

If you want scary, get a taglift chassis, forget to drop the axle when you take on a heavy load, and then brake hard going downhill. Jackknife!!
If I remember rightly, there is an option to select your 'favourite truck' when you first create a new driver, and you should then have the relevant dealer shown on the map. Otherwise you'll need to find one: there is probably a map online somewhere, but if you tell me where you are, I can tell you where the nearest Volvo dealer is.
Many modern articulated three-axle trucks have the option to raise one set of wheels from the road while driving with no trailer, or with a light load - it reduces tyre wear, and can help manoeuvrability. A taglift chassis is one where the rear axle lifts. See the picture of the '6x2 Rear-lift' truck here:

Quite the informative post there, an interesting read.
It's thanks to ETS2 (and before that, ETS, and before that, UKTS) that I knew quite a lot of that stuff already.
Might go trucking later. Gonna take the Beluga out for a spin first though.
