Poznań is one of our most ambitious areas to date; nine years in the making, and a city we were incredibly proud of to release with the most recent release of ProMods Europe.
With v2.82 on the horizon, we wanted to take a moment to revisit it and highlight something that we feel doesn’t always get the attention it deserves, with an exclusive new update: the textures.

To pay homage to these much loved textures, we’ve even given you the ability to download them as wallpapers for your mobile or desktop!

Poland is a country of remarkable visual consistency, and nowhere is that more apparent than in the materials that make up its urban environments. In v2.82, we’ve made the decision to lean fully into this, reworking a significant portion of Poznań’s surface materials to feature what we consider to be one of the most versatile and characterful textures in the ETS2 engine: dirt.mat.

At first glance, dirt.mat is easy to overlook. It is, on the surface, a simple material. But spend a little time with it, really spend time with it, and you begin to appreciate the quiet confidence it brings to an environment. It doesn’t demand attention. It simply exists, reliably and completely, across roads, buildings, pavements, and landmarks alike. We feel this reflects something true about Poznań, and indeed about Poland more broadly.

The result is a city that feels cohesive in a way that detailed, varied texturing simply cannot achieve. Every surface speaks the same language. There is a harmony to it that our team has found genuinely moving.

We hope you enjoy exploring the region when v2.82 releases. Much like South Dakota’s natural beauty, sometimes the most understated environments are the ones that stay with you longest.

We’re also pleased to share that something special for the Kirkenes Quarry road; one of the most iconic routes in the ProMods community, and a stretch of road that holds a particular place in the hearts of TruckersMP players everywhere.

We’ll have a full delayed announcement on this very soon, but safe to say, if you’ve driven it before, you’ll want to make time for it again (and don’t wait, it’s on TruckersMP right now!)

As always, we thank you for your continued support, we can’t wait to tell you more soon!

Over the years, the ProMods Trailer & Company Pack (TCP) has evolved alongside the ProMods map itself. As our main project continue to grow, we’ve taken the opportunity to refine the purpose of the TCP and focus it on what many players enjoy the most: real world brands and companies within ETS2.

With the introduction of “Project De-Brand” across the ProMods map, the TCP now serves as the primary place where real companies are represented within the ProMods ecosystem. To showcase this renewed direction, we’ve created a more generic trailer for the Trailer & Company Pack heading into 2026, highlighting the different ways real-world brands appear throughout the game. Our future goal for the Trailer & Company pack is to transform it into a mod that will cover every aspect of the ETS2 world, transforming every brand in game, from the companies that you serve while delivering cargo, to fuel stations, advertisements, scenery brands and more.

One of the most noticable additions to the TCP is the presence of real-world fuel brands across Europe. This includes detailed gas station totems and pendant signage, which help make motorway service areas feel much closer to their real-life counterparts.

From highway rest stops to smaller roadside stations, these branded elements add a much-appreciated layer of familiarity and immersion, especially to long-distance driving.

Beyond fuel stations, the TCP also introduces company branding; the ones that you can visit for cargo pickups and deliveries.
These include recognizable logistics and retail brands, such as large distribution centers, warehouses and depots; designed to integrate naturally into the existing map.

Not every company and stop needs to be reachable.
The TCP also populates the billboards and signage across the map, including businesses that you may drive past. Whilst these locations might not be accessible to players, they play an important role in shaping the enviornment.

The Trailer & Company Pack will continue to evolve as new companies, brands, and visual elements are slowly added over time. With it’s renewed focus on real-world branding, the TCP now stands as the perfect companion to the ProMods series; offering players a much clearer choice between a lore-friendly map experience or a world filled with real-world companies.

Over the years, ProMods has always aimed to make the Euro Truck Simulator 2 world feel as authentic and immersive as possible. One way we previously approached this was by including real-world company brands throughout parts of the map.

However, with the Trailer & Company Pack being our mod dedicated to replacing SCS’s fictional in-game companies, we’ve ended up in a situation where a ProMods Europe now includes a mix of newly added real brands alongside SCS’s fictional ones, with the Trailer & Company pack replacing the brands from SCS. In order to create a more cohesive experience. Going forward, we intend to move all brands inspired by real-life companies to the Trailer & Company pack, with ProMods Europe becoming a fully de-branded pack. This allows you to choose whether you’d like to see the map with real companies, or would prefer to play with fictional brands that fit right alongside those created by SCS.

We are now gradually moving forward with Project De-Brand; an initiative focused on replacing real-world company branding within the ProMods map with lore-friendly companies and assets that better fit the world of Euro Truck Simulator 2.
This change has been happening quietly for some time already, and we will continue implementing it gradually in future updates.

Euro Truck Simulator 2 has its own unique world, complete with fictional companies, brands, and industries created by SCS Software. These businesses form part of the game’s identity and help maintain consistency across the map and DLC expansions.
By aligning more closely with this established ecosystem, ProMods can integrate more naturally with the base game while still maintaining the high level of realism players expect.

This approach also helps ensure long-term compatibility with future ETS2 updates and expansions.

At the same time, Project De-Brand allows us to develop something new: our own ProMods universe.
Rather than simply mirroring real-world companies, we now have the opportunity to create original logistics brands, industries, and visual identities that feel believable within the ETS2 world while still being inspired by real-life transport and manufacturing.

Over time, you’ll begin to see more of these companies appear across the map; helping build a consistent identity that blends ETS2 lore with new ProMods-inspired businesses.

For players who enjoy seeing real-world companies represented in-game; nothing is being lost it’s simply moving to a more appropriate place.
Our Trailer & Company Pack (TCP) will now become the primary home for real-world brands within the ProMods ecosystem. This allows players who prefer real companies to continue enjoying them, while keeping the core ProMods map aligned with the ETS2 universe.

We’ll be sharing more details about the future direction and updated look of the Trailer & Company Pack soon, so stay tuned.
