Why should ATS get all the free stuff?

(tl;dr summary: Play ETS2 for 50 total hours and get the trailer pack for free after going through the link)

Thanks for the heads up, I'd have missed that.

I knew they were limited. It's why I posted it on the same day the blog post was up. You can buy the DLC from the Steam store, anyways.

Anime is Bad.
Except for Pokemon, Valkyria Chronicles and 100% OJ.

Anybody else never drive at the speed limit? I always do somewhere between 5 and 25 under because the AI is so loving dumb. I regularly run into situations where I'll have to move over and pass a car/truck while doing 40 in a loving 55/65 zone. It's ridiculous.

Kind of, but the opposite. 5–25kph over the limit or bust. Fast enough to get where you're going, slow enough to make it easy to avoid speeding tickets. :D

Yes, they're call off-ramps and they're even worse than enemy drivers as far as ruining your speed and your cargo.

And that is the danger of off-ramps. They cause exactly those kinds of problems with your truck.

Decided to reinstall ProMods. Also got Rusmap, Project Balkans, and Egypt Addon. They are all "officially" supported by ProMods. Heck, the mod load order on ProMods' website told me so. Obviously ProMods doesn't make the other ones, and they will only fix their own map.

ATS is fun and a nice change of scenery, but I can see the scale being a problem as I've visited like half the cities in one day. Do we know if the rescale is going to add roads?

I didn't notice this before but look at the lower right corner of the new map. There are roads leading east that aren't in the current game. Is New Mexico the next DLC?
Edit: I should have googled first...the next DLC will be New Mexico and Texas.

New Mexico & Texas is the next map DLC, then Oregon & Washington.

They are probably starting internal beta in the next few weeks then I guess open beta will be Nov/Dec.

Speaking of rescale, I tried out a 1:1 Alaskan highway map. While seeing a parking lot as large as some of vanilla towns is cool, driving 200 miles for like 3 hours gets to you. I've seen things man. Things. Trees.

I have NEVER received the respect I deserve as the leader and founder of The Masterflock, the internet's largest and oldest Christopher Masterpiece fan group in all of history, and I DEMAND that changes. From now on, you will respect Skinty McEdger!

Anyone been having any problems with the game since the last patch? I hadn't touched it in a few weeks but trying it last night it kept hanging up on the load screen. I thought it might be a mod conflict, but when I tried a new vanilla game I had the same problem.

My uncle is a bit of a religious nutter but also a pretty cool guy. Yesterday he showed up on my door with this bastard of a thing.



A member of the congregation had just died and since nobody else knew what to do with it he took it.
As far as I can tell it's a Logitech g27. Those work with Eurotruck, right?

If it uses xinput, it works with ETS2 and ATS.

It'll work, you'll probably have to grab some version of Logitech Gaming Software to configure parts of it though.

Yes, it's a great wheel too. One of the best of the "Inexpensive" wheels.

You can get the software/drivers from http://support.logitech.com/en_us/product/g27-racing-wheel

Jeeze even the Driving Force GT used at amazon is frigging 150 now, I sold mine 3 months ago for around 90

Check craigslist for one, I got mine for 75 with a stand from someone who just wanted rid of it.
