They'll start making educational games for preschoolers.   

I'd buy that. I still need help with shapes. 

[Grapefoot]

I have pretty much everything made by SCS anyways, so why would I stop now?

Well, *TS games already have low age rating, so the pre-schoolers aren’t prohibited to play them. Also, these games can give some geographical education as well .

[Anyponedrawn]

An educational game indeed. And the road signs teach children the alphabet and numbers!  It also teaches other languages!  SCS might be the most educational company there is!

An educational game indeed.

I always loved that window with gearbox control options .

It shows you the height of driver’s skill growth while moving from the simplest mode to the hardest .
Or... mocks the vast majority of players who doesn’t even think to get a controller .

[Grapefoot]

I like simple automatic because I am simple.

ATS 1.45 is here!

OK, we have only 9 days left before the new state release. New cargoes like garbage truck, waste paper or (my favorite ) circuit breakers are already present — the same with non-owned trailer paintjobs for new companies like Sweet Beets. Also, I predict that turn and the following area with naked trees will probably be a common place for making screenshots. (That girl in the right bottom of the first picture looks right at my trailer!)

I like how they made these uhm... portraits of new cargoes for fuel tanks. Since cargoes for food tanks (added a couple years ago) were drawn as bottles with named liquids, I was expecting something like barrels or jerrycans this time, but no .

I got a drive to Cody to do tonight.

The burnt trees I think will be an area we deliver the new trees cargo too.  

I do sort of like those new liquid icons icons.  At least they are the right colors.

Time to go trucking boys.

The atmosphere in that third pic is straight out of a horror flick!  Too bad you can't have fog in the game without rain. That is something I wish SCS would do, it more weather variation.

[timmelon]

Also, I see there are different amounts of the same cargo for the same trailer, probably due to state restriction.

As usual, California don’t let us take much .

[RainySunshine]

California is the EU of the United States.  Take that as you will.

So I wonder what 1.45 for ETS2 will have?  Anything noteworthy?  Any new routes? 

I am very happy we can now turn off the XXXXXXXX on roads we can't drive down.

Don’t forget about total rework of Hannover area .

I am totally agreed.
The same as Spain is Wild West of Europe — in certain locations you can take a screenshot without any vehicles in FOV and it will be hard to answer from where it was .

UPD:

A bit more roads into Yellowstone!

Also, the routes for Special Transport cargoes are announced, although this DLC is probably not as popular here as map expansions . I have it both for ETS and ATS, but I have tried the oversized cargo only a couple of times — usually I prefer longer and faster rides .

Western Star To Reveal New Truck August 2nd

This lands very close to the release date of Montana DLC (August 4th). Will the premier truck for this DLC be the new Western Star truck?

[Silverwing]

I am excited for more special transport.  I love how they continue to update and upgrade old DLC's.  So awesome!

California is the EU of the United States.  Take that as you will. 

Exactly.  All the extra restrictions, limitations, and rules.  Spain is also the wild west of Europe, hence all the Spaghetti Westerns! Spain, the OP cowboys of Europe.
