Different from Promods for Euro Truck, this one currently only requires the Oregon and Washington DLCs to be present, not all map DLCs. It’s currently only four mods - the definitions mod and a 7z file containing an assets file, the maps file and the models file, only around 116 MiB download size. This one adds Canada to the game, as the title tells. It was to my delight that I saw the recent launch of a similar modset for Euro Truck’s sister game, American Truck Simulator. It is not only a matter of quantity it adds an enormous amount of quality to the game, more believable scenarios, companions, roads that actually offer alternate paths, meaningful missions and so much life to the landscape. The modset also requires all official map DLCs to work - probably a very smart way to prevent conflicts of interest with SCS Software - and in the download page, it only allows you to download the mods at 300 kB/s if you do not wish to pay 1 Euro for the “premium” download.Įven then, on thing can be said with confidence: passing all the obstacles, this modset is one of the best you can add to Euro Truck. Also, they need exact game versions and every new version of the modset takes 1-2 weeks to appear after each new version on Steam or GOG (it is suggested on their pages to use the “betas” properties tab for the game on Steam to select an older build while the synchronized version is not out). Since it’s that big of an undertaking, it is not in the Steam workshop and it is sort of a pain to update:you have to remove all previous versions of the mods and then add the new versions in the same order. It is nearly 8 GiB in size and composed of about 15 mods (the number may vary depending on your options) that must be added in the right order with the mod manager. Instead of adding a trinket or two, changing some graphics or lighting, Promods is a huge project that practically gives you a new, much bigger game, adding over 80 new cities and several countries to the map, not to mention new cosmetics, skins, trailers, companies and so on. A typical Canada countryside road as it appears on promods Canada Promods has over 30 people involved, from site maintainers to 3D artists to mod developers, and over 700.000 forum members, surpassing even the official SCS forums. It had its first release in 2013 and even got official insider access to Beta and Alpha from SCS Software. This is the name not only of a set of mods, but an entire ongoing project and community which started in 2012. Less well known, however, is the amazing set of mods for it called Promods. But What Is Promods?Įuro Truck Simulator 2 is a well known Linux-native game from SCS Software. Just a couple weeks after the update of Promods for the latest version of Euro Truck Simulator 2, the new Promods Canada for American Truck Simulator is out.
