Guides and news for Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator, which share one engine and one mod format. Install mods in the right load order, understand the version warning, run map mods with their DLC requirements, find a truck mod in the dealer, set traffic density, back up profiles, and use the Steam Workshop without surprises. The news follows SCS Software’s updates and announcements, from the 1.62 open beta to the Coaches DLC, with what each one means for mods. For modders there is an overview of SCS’s official tools.
Euro Truck Simulator 2 and ATS
Version 1.37 replaced the audio system and silenced a decade of sound mods. What a modern pack contains, engine packs versus environment packs, load order, version sensitivity and a fair listening test.
Euro Truck Simulator 2 and ATS
Density and variety are separate levers. How g_traffic works, why a 500-car pack does not add cars until you raise it, where filter mods go in the list, and what costs CPU versus video memory.
Euro Truck Simulator 2 and ATS
The week's largest upload was 175 trailers and 772 cargoes. What a trailer mod adds versus a cargo mod, how the freight and cargo markets pick them up, load order, removal, and why packs are per game.

468 files landed in seven days, and for the first time a big share were truck-sim mods: a 526-car traffic pack, 175 trailers with 772 cargoes, heavy-haul trailers, Scania interiors and the filter mods that remove stock traffic.

Two open betas, the Scania Touring coach preview, the first Iceland gameplay, a tour of Edinburgh and seven British Columbia cities, all in three weeks. What was announced, and what it means for map and bus mods.
Euro Truck Simulator 2 and ATS
Where the mod folder is, how the Mod Manager works, why the mod higher in the list wins, and why the 'created for a different version' warning is advice rather than a block.
Euro Truck Simulator 2 and ATS
Eleven new Road Trip Tourist Boards, a cross-border Route 66 board for the highway's centenary and the 2025 Volvo VNL in AI traffic. What is in the 20 October beta and how it sits with map and traffic mods.
