Grain farms of Nebraska

(SCS Xwitter post with video)

I see they are finally going to complete the grain load animation... which was shown almost four years ago, but not available for players.
However, these cargoes are pretty cheap, so I will continue to carry the Propane, Dynamite and Boom Lifts .

I wish they had more animations when delivering or picking up cargo.

Good state to finish the animation in.  We are entering the US's grain producing states.

I've been taking photos of OLD San Francisco so I can share NEW San Francisco after the 1.50 update.  I would do the same with ETS2, but I think those cities will be SO different, nothing will be recognizable.

[Grapefoot]

^ Oh, that will be neat!

Yeah, the old ETS2 cities were all basically the same grid layout, massive sidewalks, and the same generic buildings posted in them. The only difference was the background cityscape.

Good idea!

He-he, there is some sort of trophy photo from me — a filling station reached on the last liter of fuel .

(oh, these polygons on a dashboard of the truck drawn in 2012...)
Last time it happened with me more than a year ago, and today I was lucky enough to avoid using the Emergency Refuel at the last moment.

Also, yesterday there was a post with Nordic Horizons DLC team presentation.

That is a VERY close call with running out of gas.

I remember one time my truck ran out of fuel when driving to a station I thought I could reach.  You can coast in neutral but I didn't make it.

[RainySunshine]

Close one!

Good blog post too!

[Silverwing]

So I think we will get a release date announcement for 1.50 in the next three weeks.  What do you all think?

[timmelon]

We already have almost three weeks of experimental beta, so together it will be 1.5 months of beta testing .
I hope we will get a release a week earlier .

[Anyponedrawn]

I don't know how long it will be, but I want to say something crazy like we will get an announcement this week.  Just on the offhand chance that happens. lol!

Step into Columbia

(SCS Xwitter post with video)

OK, we had Montana in Bulgaria, and here comes Columbia in Missouri.
Don’t confuse with Colombia . So many landmarks and locations were named after one man!

[Wolfwood]

Pure Grade A Columbian my friend! 

[Anyponedrawn]

Never been there before, but they seem to be doing a nice job.

Probably one of the most forgotten state capitals.
