Trucking Simulator Games Discussion

Obviously a texture issue, I just didn't check is it one specimen or a whole locomotive type.
At least they didn't put the electric locomotive on the not electrified track .

I noticed that some of the train skins have been changing over the last few years.  For example, the BSNF fictional trains in ATS are all gone and they now have all new schemes that don't mimic the real BNSF schemes.

Meanwhile, we have a gameplay preview video from Missouri:

Almost as green as France or Germany .

Okay, so I am not going crazy, that is actually happening.  Probably to avoid any frivolous lawsuits.

I don't want to spoil myself.  Not gonna watch it!

Truck stops of Louisiana

(SCS Xwitter post with video)

Another truckstop-related post, so soon? In this state, I would more like to see some swamps .

[Graymist]

You will see lots of swamps in Louisiana.  Especially as we go far south in the state.  I hope we get to drive Route 1 and Route 23 to the tips of the state to supply oil rigs.

I watched the Missouri gameplay vid.  It was good.

My guess is they will give us Route 1 to Port Fourchon.  Less to go to along Route 23.

The truck stops have really improved in the games lately, especially in ATS.  I know truck stop culture is more of an American thing.  But I also love the variety in both games of gas stations and how they aren't just all the same assets posted over and over.  I like the different entry ways and exits so we have to plan our moves.

Good looking truck stops.

More scenarios for Driving Academy!

Not for the upcoming patch, but, apparently, for the next one.
As for the night maneuvering tasks, actually, it’s very common for me when the delivery of some stuff on a long articulated trailer ends at nighttime .

^ Very cool! I found doing the ETS2 driving academy to be much easier than the ATS ones.  I like them a lot, so this is cool to me!

Surprise announcement coming next Tuesday.

^Even if I am more interested in the map expansions, I hope they are talking about the complete list of options for new T680 .
As you can see on one screenshot from the previous blog post, here T680 has the normal mirrors instead of reduced ones we have in the game now:

So, maybe this truck will finally be completed in the nearest future? I still have one free slot in my first garage for it .

(BTW, I have caught a nice number on my current Volvo)
