American Truck Sim

[seagoon]

Well, I've reinstalled it and have Washington state, Oregon, California and Arizona maps (can't recall what was default and what was DLC).
Should I add Montana?
(Not sure about the Australia map as I'd need Alaska, apparently.)

Texas looks and sounds impressive.

Did you know there is an Australian map mod for ATS buddy ? Not very big, but i read it is quite realistic.

Mike.

No....I wasn't aware of that, Mike, so thanks for the H/U. Do you have info on where it can be downloaded?

[BNSF4723]

I've been spending the last few days checking out Montana and completing the event. Kinda hoping to make my way over to Kalispell later tonight to see if theres any familiar Marias Pass train simulator sights. Really liking it so far, the last few state releases have been really high quality.

Very lucky Bruce, haven't done it since thank goodness.

I even find it weird when i drive on the UK part of ETS2. Hitting pavement edges, signs etc, hahahahaha.

Probably foreigners or huge truck sim fans Don't look at me, i have never been to Australia

....Couple of months back i drove up to the junction where i live and stopped on the right hand side.

Good job it is a quiet road and nothing wanted to turn left, towards me.

Mike.

Jeeez! That was lucky, Mike.
I've seen people turn the wrong way into a round-about (when we were in Canberra....so I assume they were foreigners) but fortunately there were no collisions.

[haverfordwest]

I have ATS and ETS on my PC.....haven't used either in a couple of years.
Maybe I should fire ATS up again. Apart from the driving on the wrong side, I can relate to the wide open spaces more than I can with ETS.

I have become so used to driving on the wrong side of the road now, in the trucksims Bruce.

Definitely Texas next, Vern. This was posted on Steam before the Montana release date announcement.

I think you can only fast travel between locations you have already visited Vern. But i am not 100% sure of that one.

I just bought a new garage in Montana and then re-located to it, buddy. Then started working from there.

In v1.45 you get a new free truck, as well as new trailers. As well as all the updates and improvements. Truck is modern and not my taste. But what a different attitude to the trainsim developers.

Presumably you can fast travel to somewhere near the new map to save all that time on the Interstate, or even dead heading if you can't find a job not going that way.
