  1. I said which trailer it is, It's an extendable low bed with 5 axles, either with all axles in the rear or one in the front, and only fully extended, for short versions cargo will not show up in the market. See the pictures bellow, those are literally only two trailers that can accept locomotive cargo, anything else is too small and/or below load capacity. Also, keep in mind it's not guaranteed to find desired cargo in external contracts, this is one of the hard to find, not available to pick up or drop off just anywhere, you'll only find it at locomotive manufacturers and some general logistics companies.
  2. Your only option is feedback system and waiting for response, it will take several days, usually. But don't expect anybody falling for this totally believable story.
  3. You can preview available cargo for any of the trailers with visible cargo model (or changes to trailer model): from the Main Menu -> Content Browser -> Trailer Browser. In "Trailer Model" option, choose trailer from the list, there is only basic model for each trailer, but there are configuration options (in the top left corner is drop down menu to switch between standard and various DLC trailers), in the "Chassis" option select desired axle configuration. Drop down menu with list of available cargo appears in the top right corner when applicable. You will need Low Bed trailer with minimum of 5 axles, and the Locomotive only fits if the trailer is extended to full lenght. Purchase any of the last 4 chassis options (1+4 or 5 axles extendable) - short and long version of extendable trailer is actually one trailer and you can swap between the two versions any time the trailer is attached to your truck, press F7 followed by Enter, choose Adjust Trailer option ( if the option is grayed out, there isn't sufficient space behind).
  4. If the overtaken vehicle is signaling left turn, it is only permitted passing on the right, provided there is enough space, which there isn't, so no, that isn't the main reason.
  5. Prejudice, misinformation (read posts above), which contributes to smaller playerbase (ATS has about 6 to 4 times less sold copies worldwide), TMP contributes to sales with sheep mentality, so if ATS is dead on TMP, which game would you choose to drive with lots of people? I find it funny that smaller map should actually be advantage in regard to TMP, considering even base map in ETS2 servers is almsot lifeless outside few hotspots.
  6. Unfortunately, nobody can help you with this here, becasue it's a most likely Promods related bug. Least you can do is to report the bug on Promods website, try selecting "safe" parking in the gameplay options when delivering double trailers (if it will still require reversing, it"s definitely a bug), or avoid delivering double trailers to that particualr destination.
  7. No, there is nothing but a bit of an unfinished map, blocked by >>>>> barriers, that has no purpose, probably created as part of an unreleased map expansion by SCS, there aren't even any Promods modifications in that particular area.
  8. Nah, I think they should put tracks in the middle of the road in street running train style and have high speed IC train play bowling with unruly trucks.
  9. I dare to say that any game setting can be "locked", overriding local settings, including limiting setting's range to standard values only. If you can remember there used to be problem with random road events and detours until TMP disabled them, effectively forcing game settings. Also I believe truck stability and suspension related settigns are limited to values ranges that can be achieved with menu sliders, although higher or even negative numbers can be used with console commands. I don't see why there would be a problem with some settings being forced, those that don't want that have the freedom to choose different server. I do not have that freedom. Why maintaing 2 arcade servers, plus one ghost server that nobody wants? You could just secretely set the speed limit on sim1 to 150km/h, since there's the crowd that voted and cried for it, but they just hang there, cause that's where everybody else is, leaving the server made for them without other purpose than when sim1 gets full (rarely) or when there's an outgage. Seriously, why TMP just don't do that is beyond me.
  10. In the recent blog about Germany Rework, SCS announced changes to Rhine-Ruhr region, cities of Cologne, Düsseldorf, Dortmund and Duisburg are mentioned and you can read exactly this: "this entire region has been rebuilt from the ground up, which includes the road network" Yeah, it will not be the end of C-D road ... yet, only the first step. Because why would they only do some touch up job, after replacing entire regions and countries with new content built form scratch? However it will take whole lot of time until it's gone completely.

    FPS

    You can still only have as much as your monitor or TV screen can handle. You can reduce settings to potato level, but then go to official TMP convoy meetup where there are 200+ people and get 5 FPS anyway. It's just that TMP is a third party modification that added multiplayer functionality to ETS2 (and ATS later), then a singleplayer game. Even today, ETS2 and ATS are only optimized for singleplayer and multiplayer for up to 8 players, game engine can still utilize only single processor core. Nothing really TMP can do about that, but developer of the game, SCS Software, should be upgrading the game engine in near future, which should bring increase in performance.
  12. Team effort indeed, but at what cost.
  13. Does it really matter for TMP? After initial interest for first few weeks, just another set of empty roads to fall asleep while driving.
  14. Way back, there used to be some really weird glitches related to articulated trailers only seen in TMP, anybody remembers?: Yeah, especially cause of that shitty Volvo drivetrain that's powering them.
