Euro Truck Simulator 2 worthy of purchase

Train Simulator seems to sell generally really well, and even more so when it's on offer

I love it to bits but the expansions are stupidly priced. You jsut have to wait for the xmas sale to try and pick some up cheap, they wernt even that cheap this year though! Shame really.
 
Is there a place to download all these mods rather than getting them singularly? Also if I keep adding trailer mods will different ones appear or will it just be the last one added?

The quoted price is scary when you add all the DLC to your cart...

I'm not sure. A lot of them seem to be overriding the defaults, so it'll work out that one version of it wins, not sure how it works.

I've seen instructions for extraction of a zip file, and putting it back together when mods are listed.

Unzip the .scs archives into your “My Documents\Euro Truck Simulator 2\mod” folder.


It does all seem rather vague
 
It's better to install 1 mod at a time, I bulked a load in yesterday including new trailers, custom trucks and better headlights and the game kept crashing, eventually got round to removing the better headlights mod and everything worked totally fine again :)
 
They don't touch the core files, When you install the game, in your Documents, it creates a folder and inside that folder is another one called Mods, you chuck what you want in there and voila, simple mods are easily put in and pulled out, but more technical mods like texture packs and the like can screw your gamesave if you just remove them without having a backup first.
 
Wow. It seems they've implemented the SPEC average speed cameras. Just at 30MPH, not 50...

Eurotunnel is in the wrong location too..
 
Quite an addictive game.

Just a couple of questions if I may:
  • What mods do you recommend and where can I download them?
  • I was going too fast round a corner and my truck toppled. How do I get it back on its wheels?
Thanks.

F7 then enter it seems
 
Whereabouts? Not seen that happen as yet.

the specs location is around london i think, theres more than 1 set of specs and the others are 50mph limits

This was from Dover (?) heading to the EuroTunnel, which they've put quite a way to the west of Dover.

Not sure if they actually work like spec cams, but they're there on their scary yellow gantries..
 
Damn that 1.3 update and 1.3.1
rolled back to 1.24 due to the lack of mods lol
finally got a new beast up and running, this thing is king for massive heavy loads (apart from the engine, 600Hp & 2500nm just isn't cutting it up the hills lol (roll on level 25)
