This will significantly help us make tweaks and changes so that all wheel users can benefit from this update. However, our QA doesn't have access to all the various controllers on the market, so during this Open Beta, we ask that you help us by submitting your feedback along with information about the wheel you are using.
By choosing these publicly available MODs to make such screenshots we make no claim or endorsement of any kind that these MODs or their authors are officially supported, recognized, preferred, or recommended by SCS Software.ġ.42 also brings an update to our Force Feedback profiles for steering wheels and controllers which are compatible with Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator. Third-party modifications were used to create illustrative screenshots for this blog article. You can find our first Convoy FAQ blog here, which answers the community's most popular questions!
We look forward to seeing the many wonderful and creative MODs that will be used whilst convoying together with friends! We also plan to release a new FAQ in the future with more up-to-date information as we continue to work on the Convoy feature. Your help and contributions during the Open Beta will be extremely valuable to our teams, so please submit your bug reports and feedback on the appropriate sections of our forum ( ETS2/ ATS). Our teams will continue working hard throughout the Open Beta and beyond to overcome the difficulties that may come with using third-party modifications in the convoy mode. Vehicles, Trailers, and Cargo modifications must also include proper traffic models for other players to see and interact with. Sound modifications will be heard locally by the user, but other players will not hear them as remote trucks use a simpler soundbank (or they may just hear default truck sounds) if the modification is not configured to do so. MOD authors please be aware that some modifications will require some adjustments to work properly in Convoy. However, may you encounter a situation where your saves or profile gets corrupted or damaged, we really need you to report this to us with as detailed feedback as possible on our forum ( ETS2/ ATS). It is recommended to backup your profile data before switching to this beta branch. Also, in some rare situations, using MODs in Convoy sessions during Open Beta might lead to corrupted profile saves. We expect a majority of popular modifications to work from the get-go with this update, however, there may be some compatibility issues with others.
