Euro Truck Simulator 2 patch notes
Convoy Multiplayer
Convoy is a new multiplayer game mode, where players can set up and host their own private sessions (password optional) to drive with their friends or other fellow truckers. There is currently support for synchronized AI traffic, time and weather, and the ability to take the same job as other players.
Convoy will allow you to create and host an online session with up to 8 players.
You can also see, filter, browse and eventually join any of the available sessions that have been already created by your friends or other truckers.
So what options and features will players be able to use and experience in the open beta of Convoy?
- Any player can host and create their own private sessions for up to 8 people
- Ability to haul the same contracts/jobs together from the same company and to the same destination
- Synchronized AI traffic (random events included)
- Synchronized time and weather
- Synchronized paint jobs, truck accessories, cabin accessories, cargoes and more
- Ability to communicate with other drivers via CB radio broadcast (X key), quick replies (Q key), or text chat (Y key)
- Mods in Convoy mode are not supported in the initial release.
- When using an owned trailer, there might be a company trailer spawned in the same location you are supposed to go to to load your cargo.
- AI vehicles might disappear when a player disconnects.
- Lifting bridges are not synchronized. They will be stationary for the initial release of Convoy.
- Steam invites work only through the Steam overlay.
- CB radio broadcast (hotkey “X”) interferes with the text input line.
- The on-screen map in Convoy “M” zooms out together with chat scrolling in the Route Advisor.
In-case of trouble-makers or other circumstances out of your control, players will have the option to revert their save to one made previously before joining the session.
California Reskin
During our special Christmas 2020 live stream, we announced that we would be revisiting California in American Truck Simulator to give our starting state a reskin! Today, we bring the first iteration of this reskin, carrying a major road layout rework, agriculture stations, and more!
A-24 Iberia DLC Addition
Today, we are happy to bring a new piece of the road network to the latest map expansion for ETS2. This update to Iberia carries the Autoestrada A24Â which runs north to south across the Douro river valley, connecting A7 and A25. It passes through a very scenic region of Portugal, famous for its many vineyards.
Photo Mode: Time & Weather options
We know how much our players love to take photos in-game and spend a lot of time creating that perfect shot, and for many, this also includes finding the right lighting conditions and weather.
Introducing the new Time and Weather options! Players will now be able to choose the conditions of their liking, to create the perfect trucking snap just by simply adjusting a new slider to change the time, or clicking on two buttons to control the lighting/weather, all of which will appear in the updated in-game photo studio. We can’t wait to see how drivers will use this new feature in the future and we look forward to seeing your snaps!
