Eurotruck Simulator 2 and more
On december 5th this new DLC was launched ! I did a few streams (one of them linked below, check the youtube channel for more) on that day and thereafter.
It’s pretty good ! Lots of attention to detail, new type of roads, garages, pickup points for cargo and overall lovely scenery. Especially liked Sicily, wonderful little towns there.
Finally a new state was added to American Truck Sim : New Mexico. Drive east from Arizona and you can drive to Albuquerque, Santa Fe, and Roswell and other cities ;). It’s one of the games best DLC (including ETS2), very nice eye for details, and added a lot of fun things and stuff to see along the way. But it’s still ATS, in which you can drive across an entire state in like 15mins …
Anyway, I streamed the game last sunday, it was quite fun. You can check the video either on twitch or on Youtube !
And the next MAP DLC will be … (drumroll)
Italy !
Well that’s going to be great :). We’ll be able to drive from Sicily or South Italy all the way to Sweden or Norway.
You can read the details here at the SCS blog :

In other news, double trailers in 1.28 are currently in beta for ATS and ETS2, have been trying them out a little and it certainly is a lot of fun. WIll definately be recording ETS2 doubles once they’ve been released !
A little late now, but I posted a video with me delivering Xmas gifts in the UK. I am driving (for the most part) on the left side ! This past week I managed to make 10 deliveries and got the dragon paint work. I am sure I’ll use it in one of the upcoming episodes.
Today I recorded the first trip in France. In this one I drive mainly in central France to Montpellier ! It was about 50mins of footage so I split it in half. This is the first part, I just rendered the second half, should be up soon as well.
It was a bit of an ordeal to split it, the original 8Gb file proved a bit too much for most editors to handle (strangely enough). I just added my commentary track and rendered the video in Nero 2016. Then loaded that one in Nero 2016 and cut off the 1st part, and added the in and out fades etc. This time it worked perfectly. The GTX 1070 is so fast in rendering, it helps a lot :).
And all of a sudden, the France expansion pack was released ;). I somehow missed it to be honest, so I am about a week late catching on. But this afternoon, I took a spin up to Le Havre from Rotterdam, and it looked nice so far. Picked up some cheese or milk at a small local dairy farm :).
I’ll try to record some of France soon !
This version is currently in Open Beta. I made a video driving from Rotterdam to Paris !
The patch notes can be found on the SCS software blog.
There is a new video up, in which I travel from Carlisle to the Isle of Man. The Isle is new in Promods 2.10 ! But it was kind of small, so most of the video is spent actually getting there ;).
Advanced physics was used for the 1st time, not sure it’s a keeper just yet.

In the latest ETS2 video, I am off to France, the video starts in about center of France and we drive all the way south to Pau. It’s a race against time as I took the detour from Iceland by taking the boat to Denmark, instead of going the Scotland / UK route.
Last saturday I recorded the last installment of the Iceland tour. I did get stuck in the snow (again), but this time I figured out how to drive through it :). Hope you enjoy !
