ProMods 2.55 Now With Iberia DLC Support

ProMods 2.55 has released meaning you can now drive with the Iberia DLC. At this moment, no ProMods work has been merged in yet, you can read more about that below. It’s also possible to play 2.55 without Iberia; although you will lose ProMods Spain, 2.55 also brings many bug fixes and improvements.

What’s happening to ProMods Spain and Andorra?

The plan is to return as much of ProMods Spain as possible aside from old and dated areas such as Barcelona. Currently the highest priority is bringing back Andorra, where work has already begun connecting it to the new DLC content. After the merge is completed we hope to start improving and expanding the DLC.
Currently there are no pictures to share, so stay tuned for future updates!

ProMods Iberia DLC Prefab AI Fix

In the meantime, MandelSoft has put together a fix to improve AI behaviour on some of the prefabs in the Iberia DLC. Have you noticed problems with the AI taking weird paths, for example when approaching toll stations? Download the fix here! Eventually this will be integrated into the main ProMods map, but for now it is an independent fix which should work with or without the ProMods map.

That’s it, we’ll make sure to keep you updated on our Discord server, Twitter, Instagram and Facebook page with some exciting development updates. Happy trucking!

30,000 YouTube Subscribers, 1.40 Compatibility Releases and more!

It’s been a while since the last blog, and with the first three months of 2021 already behind us it’s high time we looked back at some recent milestones and our 1.40-compatible releases. Finally, read to the end for some teasers of what’s to come in both ETS2 and ATS!

We recently reached 30,000 subscribers on our YouTube channel, an especially impressive milestone considering we crossed 20,000 almost exactly one year earlier. Make sure to subscribe for development updates, livestreams, and of course our official teaser trailers. Our other social media channels also continue to grow apace. We reached 20,000 Twitter followers and 20,000 members on our Discord server back in January — Discord is the best platform for keeping right up to date with development and getting more involved in the community. And while you’re at it, don’t forget our Facebook page and Instagram!

SCS recently updated both games, American Truck Simulator and Euro Truck Simulator 2, to version 1.40. The main challenge for the compatibility updates of our ProMods maps was the completely overhauled lighting system in both games. We had to adjust all of our light hookups (sources) and self-illuminating textures to be balanced in the new system, as well as readjusting the climate files to match with the new skyboxes.

ProMods ETS2 2.52

As well as allowing you to enjoy our map in the new lighting system, ProMods 2.52 contains a scattering of additions and rebuilds in Germany, the UK, France, Iceland and more! Furthermore, the Middle East Add-on sees new cities and roads in Iraq, Turkey and Jordan. Take a look at the details:

ProMods Canada 1.0.1

This is a pure compatibility update, as well as fixing the bugs reported in version 1.0.0. But don’t worry, we are working hard to expand our Canada map!

Trailer & Company Pack 1.28 and Cabin Accessories Pack 1.14

Our TCP and CAP add-ons for ETS2 have also been updated for game version 1.40.

Upcoming content teasers

2.52 is only the beginning of new content coming this year across both Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator. The team has been working hard on many projects, big and small. We’ve decided to give you a few teasers to get you excited about what’s coming up!

Canada Sounds

With the new sound system added, Sam, along with other developers, have been hard at work adding it into both our ETS2 and ATS maps. Below you can see a preview of the new sounds being added around Canada:

These will appear in the next Canada update.

Well that’s it folks, there’s a lot to look forward to, make sure to keep an eye out on our social media for announcements and upcoming development news!

ProMods Canada: A New Country Has Arrived

It took us a few years, but finally we are here. ProMods’ first official mod for American Truck Simulator, ProMods Canada, has been released. After working hard for the past two years we are proud to present our hard work for everyone to enjoy.

In this first version, players can enjoy the roads of British Columbia. With thirteen new cities and several new roads, we have made a solid start in a project with huge potential for growth. Varying from highways to country roads, villages to cities, and coastlines to mountains, this mod already demonstrates how much Canada’s westernmost province has to offer you.

And not only you, by yourself. No, ProMods Canada has been supported from the first minute on the ATS servers from our dear friends, TruckersMP. We have seen many people explore these new roads, together with their friends. It has even caused queues at the borders, like in real life!

So what is next? Are we done with ATS? Of course not! As with our ETS2 project, we will keep working on the mod. We still have many ideas and plans for the future. Our goal is to keep expanding Canada, towards both the north and the east. If you are interested in these developments, make sure you follow our socials and join the discussion on our forum.

We, the ProMods team, hope you will enjoy our newest creation!

ProMods Canada 1.0 Trailer Skin Pack

Being able to release our first ATS mod is a big milestone for us. So to that end, and just like with ProMods 2.5 for ETS2, our add-on developer tkk7406 has made more trailer skins featuring various locations from our version of Canada. Each trailer length features a unique combination of screenshots, and there is a skin available for all box and tank trailers in-game, so now you can also add a taste of ProMods Canada to your fleet!

Seeing how successful the ProMods 2.5 trailers were, this time we pushed the boat out and collaborated with even more of our promotion partners. As you may have seen from the recent Canada streams and videos, tkk7406 worked with Fox On The Box and Wombat Trucker as well as Clumsy and Squirrel to create dedicated trailer skins for each promoter and their fans to use.

You’ll be able to find all the trailer skins in the Steam Workshop, including the main skin pack, as well as Fox On The Box’s skin, Wombat Trucker’s skin, Clumsy’s skin, and Squirrel’s skin. So don’t miss the chance to spice up your trailers with some celebratory ProMods Canada skins!

British Columbia Interior

Now that we have shown our biggest city, it’s time to talk about the rest of the map. The British Columbia Interior is generally defined to include the 14 regional districts that do not have coastline along the Pacific Ocean or Salish Sea, AND are not part of the Lower Mainland. In the first version we do not have all 14 of these regional districts (yet). What we do have, however, are breathtaking sceneries:

In the BC interior you will find “bigger” cities like Kamloops, Kelowna and Vernon and “smaller” cities like Princeton and Salmon Arm. Big freeways and small windy single lane roads. Even though the first version doesn’t contain more than 13 cities, it does provide a big variation of roads, cities and scenery. 

Also as a nice last surprise, we will reveal here the current ingame map of the mod. So this will be the content that will appear in version 1!

As with the previous blog post, this is all work in progress and anything shown is subject to change.
