      Lol na just saying I wished mine was right :P wouldn't it be awesome to learn more about the 2 great people who made this what it is today?

  2. Guys, guys! Notice how the trailer is TOO close to the cab and the paintjob decal extends over it.

    Could this be it? Could this FINALLY be the rigid trucks we've been waiting for for years!? :o Whatever it is, SCS thinks its cool enough to start teasing us!

      Acho que é um novo chassis para scania, 8x4.. 

      Vamos aguardar e ver o que é, mas realmente estou curioso.

      Essa foi uma das opiniões no twitter da SCS que faz eu acreditar que seja um 8x4, algo que queria muito é que a Mighty Griffin DLC ganhasse suporte para a nova scania, ao invés de ficar usando aqueles mods malucos.

      Shame its not rigids/tandems but nice to have an 8x4 on new Scania :)

  3. I just arrived home after leaving a client. I was just stopped at a traffic light when I noticed the license plate on the car in front of me.

  7. Last Saturday I noticed the brake pedal in our car was acting strangely. I'd step on it but there would be no brake action until I step on it all the way down. So I took the car to a nearby gas station to get the brake fluid level checked and get some extra fuel and as I expected the level was at a bare minimum, so I ordered the reservoir to be filled to the brim and then the brake pedal and the brakes returned to normal.

     

    Skip a week and shortly ago, this morning, I took the car to drive my mother to somewhere she needed to go and the brake pedal was acting strangely again, just like it did last Saturday. After dropper her off I headed to a gas station, asked for fuel and to have the brake fluid reservoir to be checked and guess what? The fluid was at a bare minimum, again. :\ There must be a leakage somewhere in the brake system. I've called our mechanic about it and he agrees with my theory. We talked and I'll be taking the afternoon off to get this issue sorted out. Gonna take the car to him to have that checked and fixed.

     

    Brakes are something you cannot afford to postpone if they are not working normally as they should. If the brakes in your car, or whatever other type of vehicle you have, act any differently from what they normally act, get them checked immediately. :truestory:

  10. T'was a fun convoy! But very weird. NCZ all over the map! It was good for there have been bumps and whatnot but honestly? I didn't really like it.

     

    Anyway, here's some screenshots of the event! I got lost at a roundabout, and saw lots of familiar faces and smashed my face on a toll accidentally.

  12. Driving around Scandinavia to deliver doubles because reasons, I came across my good pal  @Smalley - Truckers.FM at the start of my journey. :D

    And then again at the end.

    And then @Mr_Pingu showed up!

    Then we had a very pleasant and cheerful drive to Stockholm through a very pretty road.

    At the end we all parked at a company and spent some time having a fun chat. :)

  14. Here's a recommendation... if you are playing and experience any bug or connection problems of any sort, try to notice if you may have caused any issues to other players while it was happening. And if you feel you might have in any way or form, then please do record it and keep that footage for at least two weeks. That way, if you get reported for whatever and what you recorded matches the incident you've been banned for, you then will be able to prove your innocence by presenting solid evidence that you indeed had issues that were beyond your control.

      I can attest to this, last year I got banned for reversing into someone but even though I was in chat apologising telling him my pedals where stuck and he even said in chat no problem to me but that wasn't enough. They seem to want hard evidence when appealing a ban so these are wise words.

       

    4. Mike Dragon

      Mike Dragon

      Indeed. When the reporter provides solid evidence against a given player, that player will need to provide solid counter-proof if he/she wants to prove their innocence.

       

      Innocent until proven guilty - Guilty until proven innocent.

  15. I might have made up my mind on what paintjob to use when the new Scania gets added. This paintjob and this config (plus any extras that SCS will add on the final version):

    Now you all should go and buy the Halloween Paintjobs DLC so you can see my gorgeous truck in its full glory!:P

    Except for one of them, all the screenshots being currently used as background for the servers on the servers selection menu on ETS2 and ATS are actually my screenshots! :D

  18. Got the day off because yesterday was a Sunday and tomorrow is a holiday. What to do? Trucking? Nah. Oh, I know! I'll do some more art right now!

  19. So, about that last report of mine that got declined in LESS THAN ONE MINUTE after it was registered... the video evidence alone is 1:38 minutes long, the report was registered at 17:37 and closed down at 17:38, which means the admin (whose name I won't mention) spent less than one minute reviewing it and couldn't possibly be giving a single bit of attention to it. He closed it down as declined and said "no ban reason". Well, I called BS on that, filed a complaint and remade the report, asking for another another to review it and give it proper attention as all other admins have ever done with my reports and guess what? The job was properly done this time. The report was properly reviewed by an admin doing his job right. The report was accepted as it should have been. Thank you @MrHarv . You da man! ;)

      @SingingTurnip

      Unlikely. I messaged him directly to ask about it and he simply ignored, which leads me to believe he was well aware of it. Besides, like I said, less than one minute is not enough time to do anything. He simply glanced over the text (if he even attempted to read it at all) and decided to decline it. And if he did "get confused", then it was his duty to verify things before taking action or rectify his mistake. Besides, at the time of the event, I talked to a few other users and I learned from them that I wasn't the only one who have had a report unfairly declined by the same admin.

       

      But whatever. What is done is done. I've made my complaint and the report was properly handled this time. I am satisfied. :)

      Indeed, at least it's done now :)

  20. So this just happened. :\

     

    Yes, he has been reported. I just hope he will be banned based on my report instead of someone else's. I'm tired of having reports sit in the system for over a week only to then see that "Declined" status because the player have just been banned based on someone else's report that have been filed much after mine. Not complaining, though. Just venting a little bit of frustration. I know how things are and I am patient, though.

  21. OOOoooOOOoohohooOOHoohhh shhiiiiiieeeeett! GIMME!!! GIMME!!! GIMME!!! GIMME!!! GIMME!!! GIMME!!! GIMME!!! GIMME!!! GIMME!!! GIMME!!! GIMME!!! GIMME!!! GIMME!!! GIMME!!!

  23. Tried the new DLC on singleplayer earlier. Didn't feel that much of a difference from a normal trailer with normal chassis from what it is like when hauling one of the big new trailers with one of the big new chassis. I did, however, feel quite some difference when reverse parking it, though! Some extra skill is required there, for sure.

      Oh, don't get me wrong, I can park these trailers just fine, too! It just takes a bit getting used to so it takes a little longer than it normally would with a regular trailer.

    3. antrax737

      antrax737

      You just need to know where the trailer will go, i agree its not hard just different

      i think i classify that as a bug or atleast an oversight by scs..

      lets see what scs says about it next week..

  24. ETS2 updated to 1.30 today. As always, this is something I welcome and normally would not go back and downgrade so I can play MP. Though I'm admin now. What if I am needed in-game? I better downgrade. :c

  25. I won't get into any details but let me just say this; that today I have confirmed what I already always thought: That the ATS player base is far more civilized, educated, mature and more well-mannered than ETS2's player base.

     

    Seriously. Holy Christ! The difference is astounding!

      I also find that there are less trolls, maybe thats due to the less amount of players.

      Definetly You're right so many Turkish player can not buy ATS and I am very happy with this situation I hope they will not lower the price . As you said more civilized, educated, mature and more well-mannered than ETS2's player base
