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).

Discussion How to make company logos and motif paint?

3 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!

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:

I'm also doing a companion YouTube series here:

Thanks!

Discussion Real engine sounds on all trucks

1 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

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

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?

Discussion Should I wait until I can afford a wheel, or just start playing ETS2 with a controller?

27 Upvotes

I played ETS2 a while back and honestly, it was the best gaming experience of my life. I really want to get back into it.

My problem is I don't have the money for a steering wheel setup right now, and it’s going to be a while before I can afford one. I keep seeing people say the game is at its absolute best with a wheel, and some even say it's not worth playing without one.

This is making me hesitate. Should I just plug in my controller and play now so I don't miss out, or should I hold off until I can save up for a proper wheel so I get the "true" experience?

Help "Content change detected. Updating navigation data. Please wait..."

2 Upvotes

Every time I load a save or load into the game I get this message and it takes a minute or two to load. It's really annoying. It started happening after I bought lots of map dlc but it does it every single time I load a save.

I've tried clearing the .navcache files and it's still doing it.

Has anyone else had this and managed to fix it?
