We've teamed up with the amazing team over at Renault Trucks to give you the incredibly exciting opportunity to create a paint job design for the new Renault Trucks T High Evolution, which could feature in-game in Euro Truck Simulator 2 and on a REAL Truck!
With limited time left until your entry must be submitted, let us run you through how YOU can get creative and take part in this amazing opportunity, and what prizes are up for grabs.
You have until the 25th of April to create and submit your own originally created design and this can be done in a number of ways!
- If you have experience in modding, you can create your paint job and transfer it in-game. Then take a screenshot of the T High Evolution truck with your "skin" in the game and send it.
- If you are good at editing, you can paint/draw/overlay your design onto images of the truck
- Not great with software? Print out the template images provided, draw on them and scan/capture them and send them to us!
Everything you need to know is on this special landing page developed especially for this contest! We highly suggest you read the rules, plus terms and conditions very carefully!
So what exactly is up for grabs in terms of prizes? All of the 5 finalists will receive very cool rewards kindly provided by the exclusive sponsor of this campaign, Thrustmaster. Winners will receive the amazing T150 steering wheel!
And what about the ultimate winner? Well for that person we have prepared something very special. Their design will actually be recreated by the team at Renault Trucks on one of their production trucks and revealed in a special event around Summer 2021 at Renault Trucks' headquarters in Lyon, France. The creator of this design will get an expenses-paid VIP invitation to this special celebration, to be the star of the night, to see the truck, to test-drive it, and to enjoy a good time with people from SCS Software and Renault Trucks*. Plus, we will bring this design into the game as an exclusive paint job as well!
With so many exciting prizes up for grabs, you have zero reasons not to enter! Get creative and you could see your original artwork on a Renault truck! We have received so many great submissions so far and we look forward to seeing so many more! Here are just a few of them so far (this doesn't mean you won't be picked as a finalist, we are simply just showing some of the ones we personally like!)
If you are looking for some inspiration, have a watch of our previous streams where you can find tips and tricks not only from one of our own artists here at SCS Software but also from Paul Daintree, Design Director for Renault Trucks! Watch them below! (we apologize for the technical difficulties with audio during our stream with Annie!):
*The planned reward of an expenses-paid trip to the launch event in Lyon might be subject to change, as neither SCS Software nor Renault Trucks can guarantee that future COVID-19 travel and safety restrictions will allow such an event to take place.

With the recent release of Iberia for Euro Truck Simulator 2, our social media channels have been filled to the brim with photos & videos from your first journeys through this enormous peninsula. We love looking through them during the workday and we even share them with each other across our internal channels. It really does bring a lot of positivity among our colleagues as we love seeing drivers getting creative with video content and sharing some really cool snaps!
We'd love to share a selection of content created by you, our #BestCommunityEver! What you see here is really just the tip of the iceberg; you can watch a lot more or find your favorite creators here. You can also continue to send us your screenshots and videos from Iberia on our Facebook, Twitter and Instagram using the hashtag #CruisingIberia.
Our #BestCommunityEver have also been busy in our #CruisingIberia event! In just 8 days, you completely smashed the community goal of 250,000,000 km! WOW! Looks like we are going to have to check your logbooks to make sure you have been taking regular driving breaks, as even we weren't expecting you to reach this goal so quickly!
So what does this mean for the event? This means everybody who has completed their personal goal will receive a Plush Iberian Lynx toy and an Iberian Mask Bobblehead ornament as Steam inventory items via the World of Trucks site. If you haven't already completed your personal goal, don't worry! You still have plenty of time participate and we urge you take things slow, as you continue #CruisingIberia. Find all the details on how you can take part at our dedicated blogpost.
We have also received a large amount of reviews on our Iberia Steam Page. To everyone who takes the time to write reviews and give constructive criticism about Iberia, thank you! If you have enjoyed your travels through Iberia thus far, it would support us a lot if you could leave us a Steam review.

With the demand for shipping higher than ever before, drivers on the road are not the only ones feeling the pressure when it comes to making on-time deliveries. Whilst the logistics of railroad operations is completely different to those of a trucker, neither party would be able to operate without the other. And as the railroad network often closely follows the roads, one could say trains are sometimes well-known company on a trucker's journey through the lands, hauling important cargo side by side.
In our upcoming Wyoming DLC for American Truck Simulator, drivers will be able to contribute to the maintenance of the locomotives that serve the railways and deliver important rail parts from one of the biggest rail yards in the US!
Located in Cheyenne, this Railyard Depot holds everything from spare parts to service bays for the hundreds of locomotives that ride on its rails every year. Cheyenne is also the home base for UP Big Boy 4014 from Pomona. "Big Boy," the largest steam locomotive in the world!
Drivers will also be able to deliver to railroad construction sites where tracks are being built for future routes or being repaired.
So while it may seem a little frustrating to be held up at a railroad crossing, remember the train driver is much like us truck drivers! Always on the move and delivering essential goods, products, and more across the country.
If you would like to help keep the hype train moving, then be sure to add Wyoming to your Steam Wishlist!

Greetings!
We understand there is a lot of anticipation towards our multiplayer support for version 1.40, and with it, comes lots of questions. Therefore, we are happy to announce our Development Update 1.40, which will hopefully, answer your questions and concerns.
With American Truck Simulator 1.40 releasing on the 23rd of March, and Euro Truck Simulator 2 1.40 releasing on the 24th of March, our community have been anxiously awaiting TruckersMP's multiplayer support of the latest versions for three weeks.
Although our support is not yet ready, we wanted to be clear on our current progress, and answer some popular questions from the community.
Of course, if there are additional questions you would like to ask, you are welcome to post them on our forum topic. We will monitor the topic over the next few days and answer them as soon as possible.
So, without further delay, it's time to answer the most popular questions about the update!
When is multiplayer support for 1.40 expected to release?
A lot of effort has gone into porting the multiplayer modification already, but there is still a substantial amount of work to do. We are currently anticipating a release towards the end of April. This estimate can be extended if there are any setbacks during the process.
Why do these updates take so long?
Although a lot of the porting process has been automated over the years, there is still a lot of work to do manually.
Additionally, although the TruckersMP Team consists of over 230 members, it's only our two Game Developers that have the knowledge, skills, and tools to prepare the port from 1.39 to 1.40. In addition to them working on the update, they have personal commitments in the real world.
To support them as much as possible, the whole team will be participating in test builds during the porting process.
If you're curious about the process our Game Developers have to port our multiplayer modification to support the latest versions, check out mwl4's breakdown in our previous Development Update topic, here: 1.38 Development Update | Forum Post.
How can I stay up-to-date with information about 1.40 multiplayer support?
We will ensure you are informed by keeping our social media channels and information regularly updated.
You can check them out below:
TruckersMP News | Development Announcements (forums) | Discord | Twitter | Instagram | Facebook
I already updated to 1.40, how can I play on the multiplayer servers?
As multiplayer does not support 1.40 yet, you will need to downgrade your game version.
We have provided a guide on how to downgrade your games to 1.39 here: How to downgrade
You can also view our video guide on how to downgrade, here: How To: Downgrade Your Game.
Will ProMods ETS2 v2.55 and ATS v1.0.1 be supported?
It is estimated that ProMods ETS2 v2.55 and ATS v1.0.1 will be supported shortly after our initial compatibility update for 1.40. Therefore, the ProMods multiplayer servers will be temporarily unavailable when the 1.40 compatibility support is initially released.
This is likely to only take a few additional days to support, whilst we make the necessary preparations.
Will 'Iberia' DLC be supported?
The new Iberia DLC will be supported, including No Collision Zone support in appropriate locations.
Will the World of Trucks 'Cruising Iberia' event be supported?
If the event has not already concluded, it will be supported when we release multiplayer compatibility for 1.40.
It's worth noting that the event will conclude on Tuesday the 11th of May at 23:59 UTC.
Has the new lighting system affected the multiplayer porting process?
No, the updated lighting system introduced in 1.40 has not affected multiplayer in a substantial way. There are, however, some minor issues with our Scout vehicle's headlights/beacons, which will be resolved for our update.
Are there any FMOD-related issues affecting the multiplayer porting process?
No! Since client version 0.2.3.1.0, issues related to the FMOD sound engine have been resolved. This will continue to be functioning correctly in multiplayer, in 1.40.
Will the Renault T 2021 be supported?
Yes, the Renault T 2021 will be supported, including full synchronisation, and CB Radio.
Will the Spring Graphics/Weather modification be supported in 1.40?
Yes. The Spring Graphics/Weather modification by Grimes has already been updated for 1.40 and will be supported in multiplayer. Our Knowledge Base article (How to install the Spring Mod?) will be updated to reflect the latest version, when our 1.40 compatibility support has been released.
Why are you focusing on creating official events, instead of working on the new version?
Although the TruckersMP Team consists of over 230 staff, each person has an area of the project to focus on. As such, official events are created by the Event Management and Event Team. They collectively spend thousands of hours to provide the community with fresh and exciting events.
However, the multiplayer port to 1.40 is an effort our two Game Developer's focus on. Presently, only mwl4 and ShawnCZek work on the game client, as they possess the knowledge, skills, and tools to prepare the port from 1.39 to 1.40
Why are you still focusing on the Alternating Vehicles project, instead of preparing 1.40 support?
Similar to our official events, we have staff working in our Add-On Management and Add-On Team, dedicated to preparing the vehicles every two weeks. This project does not affect the Game Development's progress on porting multiplayer to 1.40 in any way.
Why are new DLCs, such as paint jobs, supported within a few days, but major game versions take weeks/months?
Our Game Developers have spent a lot of time creating systems to automate a lot of the porting process. Fortunately, the majority of the work required to implement the latest DLCs is now automated, with manual work kept to a minimum.
However, major game versions, such as 1.40, still require a lot of manual work. New game versions introduce hundreds, sometimes even thousands of changes to the game code. All of these changes need to be reflected in the multiplayer code and updated accordingly. Although a lot of this process is automated, a large portion of these code changes need to be manually analysed and addressed, which takes hundreds of hours.
The game servers have been unstable recently, what's going on?
Our DevOps team are aware of the ongoing server stability issues in the past few weeks and are continuing to investigate. Unfortunately, as explained in a recent Status update, the datacentre some of our game servers were located suffered a fire, which resulted in a lot of interruption to our European game servers.
Although our servers are now back at full capacity, there remain some stability issues that are out of our control.
We are in contact with our server provider and are actively looking into solutions to resolve the issues.
This concludes our development update for 1.40 multiplayer compatibility.
Although there are still a few days to go, we are all very excited to see you online in 1.40, and cannot wait to wave to you as we pass along the roads of Iberia. Our appreciation goes out to everyone showing support to the team - your words of encouragement are what keep us going!
Your patience and understanding are appreciated! Thank you.

Please join us as we celebrate our new Iberia DLC releasing tomorrow, April 8th, by participating in our latest World of Trucks event - Cruising Iberia! Experience this vast, beautiful and historic peninsula, while on the job. Originating from the Ancient Greek word Ἰβηρία (Ibēríā), used by Greek geographers, the Iberian Peninsula is over 580,000 km² in size, so it's our largest DLC yet, with 49 cities available to choose from, each offering a wide array of cargoes.
We are inviting you all, our #BestCommunityEver, to take up the challenging community goal of driving 250,000,000 km while delivering cargoes to or from any city in Iberia. While you are #CruisingIberia, we encourage you to visit the many beautiful coastal cities on the north, east, and southern coasts. Iberia's two largest industrial powerhouses are Portugal and Spain. Their combined exports include, but are not limited to, textiles and apparel, food and beverages, metals, chemicals, wood products, oil refining, fish canning, rubber and plastic products, electronics and telecommunications, rail transportation and aerospace equipment, ship construction, and of course tourism.
Drivers will also have the opportunity to transport and deliver a variety of equipment and produce within the important fresh fruit and vegetable industry sector across Spain and Portugal. Newly created prefabs represent a wide variety of different farms that can be found in Iberia including large commercial farms and vineyards.
Of the 49 cities, we really want you to see at least 20 of them. So, we're offering a special reward for completing your personal goal, which will require you to deliver cargo to or from your chosen 20 cities. All jobs for the event need to be 200 km or more, so please be sure to read the rules.
And, of course, you can use your own trailer during all of this in the external market!
Iberia also features viewpoints! For the very first time in Europe, you can enjoy handcrafted cinematic views, highlighting the many attractions that can be found. A sample of them are:
- Visit the ancient port of Santander, the capital of the autonomous and historical region of Cantabria.
- Drive over the impressive Guadiana International Bridge, the southernmost land crossing on the Portugal–Spain border.
- View the striking Solar Power Tower of Andalusia, the world's first commercial concentrating solar power tower that took four years to build.
- Cruise through the Port of Valencia to smell the fresh sea air in the busiest port in the Mediterranean and the fifth busiest in Europe.
- Experience the beautiful City of Barcelona, the capital and largest city of Catalonia, known for its art and architecture.
Let's go cruising Iberia while contributing to its impressively large industry! Get ready for the journey of a lifetime, because we've only scratched the surface of what this latest DLC brings to Euro Truck Simulator 2.

Last week, we started a short "hype-building" social media campaign by adding the new Renault Trucks model under a red cover in front of a few Renault Trucks dealerships in Euro Truck Simulator 2. We called for our community to share their screenshots of it under the #RenaultTrucksEvolutionIsComing hashtag on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. As always - you guys and girls did not disappoint! In these few days, there were more than 2500 tweets and 700 Instagram posts. A few lucky winners have already been selected and rewarded by the Renault Trucks team with some really cool items from their merchandise shop! Congratulations!
Now it's time to imaginarily pull off the red sheet! Lights on! Cameras are rolling, and the paparazzi have their quick fingers on their camera shutters. Are we all ready to welcome the Renault Trucks T Evolution and Renault Trucks T-High Evolution to the game, in a trucking industry first-of-its-kind through a video game before the real event? Let's do this! We are happy to announce that it is now available for everyone in ETS2 on Steam!
It is a very remarkable milestone for us, and we are honoured and proud that our track record, alongside the importance of our #BestCommunityEver, have helped create so strong a position for us in the automotive industry that we are able to work on a cooperation like this. We believe that our fanbase will love the new design and that many of you will head straight to the closest Renault Trucks dealership in the game to buy a new model, or three.
But the addition of this new evolution of Renault Trucks is not where it all ends! After some deep discussions with our friends over at Renault Trucks, we devised a novel idea to recognize and memorialize this awesome cooperation and connection between the automotive industry and our virtual trucking community.
Yes! You the fans of Euro Truck Simulator 2 will have the incredible opportunity to create and vote for your favorite community-created design for the new Renault Trucks T High Evolution. A design that will be created and showcased across both realms - in the real world and in our game!
Starting from tomorrow, the 7th of April, and lasting until the end of the 25th of April, 2021, everyone can get creative and participate in our very special Renault Trucks Evolution Design Contest! You can wrap your design on a truck in ETS2, like a modder, or download images of the Renault Trucks T High Evolution and use your favorite software to paint/draw/compose on it. You can even print these images, draw on them and scan them/send the final images of your application!
Everything you need to know is on this special landing page developed especially for this contest! We highly suggest you to read the regulations, and terms and conditions very carefully!
After the 25th of April, 2021, a jury team comprising of people from Renault Trucks & SCS Software will browse all valid entries and pick the 5 best and most suitable designs. These designs will then be voted on by our community to decide the ultimate winner from the 30th of April to the 2nd of May, 2021 on a special website created by Renault Trucks.
Now a few words about the rewards, shall we? All of the 5 finalists will receive very cool rewards kindly provided by the exclusive sponsor of this campaign, Thrustmaster. Winners will receive their amazing T150 steering wheel!
And what about the ultimate winner, the one and only design that will win the community's final vote? Well for that person we have prepared something very special. Their design will actually be recreated by the team at Renault Trucks on one of their production trucks and revealed in a special event around Summer 2021 at Renault Trucks headquarters in Lyon, France. The creator of this design will get an expenses-paid VIP invitation to this special celebration, to be the star of the night, to see the truck, to test-drive it, and to enjoy a good time with people from SCS Software and Renault Trucks.*
The real truck in the winning design will thereafter be displayed as prominently at the Renault Trucks dealership in Lyon, France, as a monument to this amazing cross-over between virtual truckers and the automotive/trucking industry! Plus, we will bring this design into the game as an exclusive paint job as well!
We have probably just put a lot of pressure on everyone wanting to participate in this contest, right? This is definitely something worth taking part in, as the winner will literally become a legend of the ETS2 virtual world!
Would you like to ask some questions about the truck, or get to know more details about the design contest? We've got you covered! Join us today from 18:00 CEST time on Twitch, YouTube, or Steam as we will do a very special stream on this topic. And we won't be alone because we will have a very special and VIP guest joining us directly from France - Mr. Paul Daintree, Director of Design at Renault Trucks! We can't wait to introduce him to our amazing fans!
*The planned reward of an expenses-paid trip to the launch event in Lyon might be subject to change, as neither SCS Software nor Renault Trucks can guarantee that future COVID-19 travel and safety restrictions will allow such an event to take place.

Located in the northwest corner of the U.S State of Wyoming, you'll find the town of Jackson, the gateway to the Grand Teton National Park.
Framed by four elk-antler arches, the Town Square is the picturesque centerpiece of Jackson. It serves as a meeting place for shopping, dining or just somewhere to relax. Attracting more than 3 million visitors a year, Jackson boasts one of the best skiing locations in the state and is home to three ski resorts.
Characterized by 19th-century log cabins and Western-style architecture, travelers visiting Jackson in our upcoming Wyoming DLC for American Truck Simulator, will surely enjoy all that the town and its surrounding areas have to offer.But not every visitor to Jackson is visiting for leisure. The town features a good variety of industries that support the local economy. From farms to local businesses, truckers will find no shortage of jobs delivering to and from this scenic area.
Already making plans to visit Wyoming in American Truck Simulator? Then make sure to add Wyoming to your Steam Wishlist! It really helps supports us in the development and release of our upcoming content. We thank you for your support. -

In the past few days the internet, and especially the automotive side, has received some very interesting and cool news bringing together Euro Truck Simulator 2 and Renault Trucks. Those with sharp eyes and attentive ears probably already heard and read about what the CEO of Renault Trucks, Bruno Blin, has announced at a very special press conference.
Today we can also confirm that this is not just a dream, but it's really happening. The latest, and as of now still officially unrevealed Renault Trucks T and T-High facelifted models, will arrive in the Euro Truck Simulator 2 universe on the 6th of April, 2021 in a free update.
This is going to be the very first time in the automotive industry that a new truck model is revealed exclusively through a videogame before any real-life event. We are honoured and proud that thanks to our excellent relationship with Renault Trucks and their recognition of the importance of our #BestCommunityEver, this amazing milestone will actually be achieved!
But before we put this evolution into ETS2, let's first play a small game with you, shall we? You may have noticed that ETS2 has just received a very small update on Steam; what was in it? Well, hop into your current Renault Trucks vehicle, drive to the closest major Renault Trucks dealership and find out! The new T-High is parked there!
Yes, it's currently hidden under a red cover, but that will change very soon. Let's show our friends over at Renault Trucks how excited we all are. Just take a screenshot of the new vehicle under the red cover and post it on Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook with the hashtag #RenaultTrucksEvolutionIsComing. Plus don't forget to tag both SCS' (Instagram, Twitter, Facebook) and Renault Trucks' (Instagram, Twitter, Facebook) profiles so we won't miss it. Later on, we will randomly pick 5 lucky winners who'll receive a special gift selected from the Renault Trucks merchandise range!

The Iberian hype train is reaching its maximum speed and we are not sure if its engine can continue building pressure. Yet, we still are going to work it a little bit harder with today's blog post.
We are in very close touch these days with the teams working on the final tasks for Iberia DLC, and with each passing day, we are getting increasingly confident statements from their side. Some time back, we dared to announce that this upcoming, and by far the biggest map expansion to-date for Euro Truck Simulator 2, will be released in April 2021.
If everything goes at the same pace and in the same positive direction, we think we'll be ready to announce the exact release date next week. And it might even be sooner than you think. Plus we also think that the first waves of early-access Iberia keys for our most loyal and trusted influencers may depart our mailboxes next week as well! Be sure to keep an eye on your inbox, if you're a creator or gaming media representative, as you might receive an invitation soon.
With the actual release of the Iberia DLC, we are also preparing a few special things for you. First, you can look forward to (and we hope that you'll accompany us for) the special Iberia release live stream full of developer Q&A, some cool behind-the-scenes info of this map expansion, and also featuring Pavel Sebor who will hit the release button at the end of the stream with us!
For those who'll be in the mood to cruise in Iberia, we will have a treat! But no more spoilers on that now!
Through the development of Iberia, we asked you many times to add this DLC to your Steam wishlist. You might not see this as an important thing, but it really helps us a lot with the development of any of our bigger projects. So far more than 580 000 Steam users have added Iberia to their wishlist! That's amazing! Thank you for your support!
Now we think it's a good time to reward you for that. Post an image of your Steam wishlist with the Iberia expansion in it under the #ReadyForIberia hashtag on Twitter or Instagram, and tag us in. In the following days, we'll randomly pick 5 lucky winners who'll receive a free Iberia Steam key 3 hours before its release!

Hot on the heels of yesterday's ATS update, we are excited to announce the highly-anticipated arrival of update 1.40 for Euro Truck Simulator 2 as well!
We'd like to thank all those who took part in the 1.40 Open Beta, made bug reports, and provided general feedback on this new version. We hope you can now begin to fully enjoy the various new features which are included within this update. So, what can you expect to find in the 1.40 update for ETS2?
Let us give you a quick recap of the most significant changes.
New Visual Lighting System
One of the biggest changes you'll notice when you first hop into your truck cab is the implementation of our new visual lighting system.
To prepare for this new lighting system, our teams had to make a lot of changes not only to our graphic renderer, its code, and other functionalities, but also to existing in-game world objects; including a majority of the in-game assets, textures, and materials to better work with the new physical model of the new lighting system. Want to get an in-depth look into what we had to revisit to make this major graphical change happen? Read more about it here.
We are very excited for you to be able to experience and immerse yourself in driving in the new light. The result is the culmination of a ton of hours by our programmers and visual effect artists and many other teams involved in the creation process of this new system. And even after this tremendous amount of work already spent in this area we are still not completely done. You can expect further changes and improvements to be done in the future. So while the open beta is done, we are still open and more than happy to get your feedback and opinions about this new graphics upgrade for our games.
Revisiting Germany
1.40 also brings the final phase of our Revisiting Germany project which a small team of mappers has been working on.
For those who are new to our game, the Revisiting Germany project consists of a small dedicated map team, who has been working hard to update one of the oldest map sections of the base game with a more realistic and up-to-date look.
The biggest change that comes with this update is a complete reskin and rework of all the highways and roads in this part of our in-game world, which was not retouched in previous updates.
Additionally, the areas around Dortmund, Köln, Dusseldorf, and Duisburg have not only benefitted from a complete road network redesign but a few new intersections and roads as well! The southern part of the Bundesautobahn 7 is now available in this update.
Vive La France ! New Cities
With the upcoming release of the Iberia expansion for Euro Truck Simulator 2, we know that many drivers will be excited to progressively make their way down Europe to cross into the peninsula for the first time. With France being mainland Europe's gateway to Spain and Portugal, our team has developed 2 new French locations which are a part of a free update to the Vive La France ! DLC coming with 1.40.
The first of these is the city of Bayonne, located in the southwest of France; it is the capital of the French Basque Country and an important connection for drivers heading to Spain as it is located close to the border.
The second location is the smaller commune of Lacq, which is located in the Arrondissement of Pau. While this small village is going to be just a scenic drive-through for most, Lacq is home to the largest refinery in France.
Both of these areas plus two new connecting junctions in Toulouse and Bordeaux come as a free update to the Vive La France ! DLC for Euro Truck Simulator 2, which we originally announced would arrive with the release of Iberia. However, with them being ready now, we thought it would be a nice surprise to include them early in this update.
Super Stripes Paint Jobs Pack Update
Our latest ETS2 DLC is also about to get an update - two of the amazing designs in the Super Stripes Paint Jobs Pack have been expanded and are now applicable on owned trailers! And believe it or not, there was a small social media experiment behind the choice of the two paint jobs that were picked for this upgrade.
Back in November 2020, we wrote several short and seemingly insignificant posts on our Euro Truck Simulator 2 and SCS Software Facebook pages, where we called upon our community to cast votes on which DLC designs you liked the most. Today we are happy to share with you that the two most popular designs are getting an upgrade so that everyone can match these designs on both trucks and trailers!
Your engagement and activity on our social media channels really do matter! We can't wait to see all the beautiful matching combinations on your vehicles. This may be a good opportunity for some VTCs to redesign their virtual corporate identity!

With lots of testing, feedback, fixing, and fine-tuning, we are excited to announce the highly anticipated arrival of update 1.40 for American Truck Simulator!
We'd like to thank all those who took part in the 1.40 Open Beta, made bug reports, and provided general feedback on this new version. We hope you can now begin to fully enjoy the various new features which are included within this update. So, what can you expect to find in the 1.40 update for ATS?
Lets us give you a quick recap of the most significant changes.
New Visual Lighting System
One of the biggest changes you'll notice when you first hop into your truck cab is the implementation of our new visual lighting system.
To prepare for this new lighting system, our teams had to make a lot of changes not only to our graphic renderer, its code, and other functionalities, but also to existing in-game world objects; including a majority of the in-game assets, textures, and materials to better work with the new physical model of the new light system. If you've missed our special and in-depth article on this topic, you can make yourself a big cup of tea/coffee and read it here.
We are very excited for you to be able to experience and immerse yourself in driving in the new light. The result is the culmination of a ton of hours by our programmers and visual effect artists and many other teams involved in the creation process of this new system. And even after this tremendous amount of work already spent in this area we are still not completely done. You can expect further changes and improvements to be done in the future. So while the open beta is done, we are still open and more than happy to get your feedback and opinions about this new graphics upgrade for our games.
Extended Chassis Update
Our vehicle team has worked hard to bring you a range of long and short chassis types, allowing you to customize your truck for the job at hand. This update will feature 4x2, 8x4, and 8x6 chassis types which are used for a range of different trailers.
4x2s, also known as single-axle trucks, are frequently used for local distribution deliveries by supermarkets and by logistic companies for hauling doubles. 8x4 and 8x6 chassis are the big guns of the heavy-haul industry and can handle just about any load you decide to take on. All of these new options bring more variety to you - the driver! We hope you enjoy this awesome addition to 1.40!
Here's a full list of all the new extended chassis options now available in 1.40:
- Freightliner Cascadia: Day cab 4x2
- Mack Anthem: Day cab 4x2
- International LoneStar: Day cab & Sleepers 8x4
- Peterbilt 389: Day cab & Sleepers 8x4 & 8x6
- Volvo VNL: Day cab 4x2, Day cab & Sleepers 8x4
- Peterbilt 579: Day cab 4x2
- Kenworth W900: Day cab & Sleepers 8x4 & 8x6
- Kenworth T680: Day cab 4x2
- Western Star 49X: Day cab & Sleepers 8x4 & 8x6
Western Star 49X Update
The Western Star 49X has received 2 additional sleeper cabin options and a grand total of 36 chassis variants, comprising of different lengths and fuel tank options on 6x2, 6x4, 8x4, and 8x6 axle configurations. Also as a surprise bonus, this includes 5 lengths for both the Set-Back and Set-Forward axle configurations! So whether you are on a job long or small, you will have the option to customize your 49X perfectly for the task at hand.
However, that isn't all! The Western Star 49X now also has an array of new parts to customize your truck including new bumpers, quarter fenders, mud flaps, hood mirrors, sun visors, grille guards, and different interior colors. We will also be bringing 3 new gearboxes in this update, the DT12-V (in direct-drive and overdrive configurations) and the DT12-VX. We hope this pleases drivers who prefer a more realistic option for their gearbox.
New Mexico & Oregon DLC Viewpoints
Back in October last year, American Truck Simulator saw the arrival of viewpoints to the states of Washington, Colorado, and Utah after their popular debut in Idaho! Today we are happy to share with you that 1.40 sees the introduction of new viewpoints to the states of New Mexico & Oregon.
For newer players of our titles, Viewpoints are certain spots found across the map, where drivers can activate a special in-game cutscene with a short showcase of a near location or place of interest. These can be found displayed as a grey question mark on your GPS, so be sure to stop and discover them on your journeys.
You also have the option to skip the viewpoint or replay it if you wish to watch it again. From populated cities to historic monuments, each viewpoint highlights a point of interest or industry, so make sure to discover them all!
Changelog:
Visual:
- New visual lighting system
Map:
- An overall update to road signage
- New service signs added to CO, ID, UT, and WA
- New fast food brands introduced to several other locations outside of CO
- New viewpoints in New Mexico & Oregon DLC's
Vehicles:
- New 4x2, 8x4, and 8x6 chassis
- Western Star 49X update including sleeper variants, set-back configurations, and new customizations
UI
- Full-text city/company search in the job selection screen
- Improved vehicle adjustment menu (F4)

Today, we are taking a closer look at the Portuguese city of Porto. Located in the beautiful Douro valley surrounded by famous vineyards, it's a place with a rich history dating back to the 4th century. For drivers, however, it is best known as the central commercial and industrial hub for the north of the Mondego River. So what can drivers discover in the city of Porto in our upcoming Iberia DLC for Euro Truck Simulator 2? Let us show you around!
Porto is the second-largest city in Portugal and the capital of its Northern Region. Located along the Douro River (River of Gold), the city is characterized by cobblestone streets, centuries-old churches, and historical landmarks.
The fishing industry plays an important role in the local economy of Porto. Some of the most common fish that are caught off the coast are sardines and hake, which are then sold at local markets across the city. Other food produce grown locally include beans, oranges, olives, and olive oil, which are also exported from nearby ports to countries around the world.
Are you ready to visit Porto? And what about other cities? In past articles, we already travelled together through Barcelona, Lisbon, and Madrid, plus a short visit to some of the newly-added French cities coming as a free update for Vive la France ! DLC as part of the 1.40 update.
But we know that you are so excited to see more. We hear you loud and clear, from your posts on our forum to our social media channels, and as a massive spam wave of the letter "M" during our Iberia gameplay live stream, trying to convince us to open and show you the entire Iberia map. Here it is!
Just look at that! Better fill your tanks, because the amount of new content to explore is going to be massive! While giving us a bit more time to get everything ready for you, you can still consider adding Iberia for Euro Truck Simulator 2 to your Steam Wishlist; this helps us a lot!
